I ordered a gold 128GB Plus and paid via Apple Pay. Got an email from Apple saying Barclays declined the payment yesterday evening, so first tried paying with my normal card. That got refused, then re-tried with the original card (some weird card number I didn't recognise). That worked fine - it was obv the Apple pay random card number. I had had a text from Barclays asking if the payments were mine, and replied Y to say they were.

I've not yet had any change in order status, but I hope it's all OK for now. In store delivery at Selfridges for Friday 16th.
 
My order with Very has changed to processing and I emailed them asking how likely delivery on Friday was and they said very likely (even sending me Royal Mail tracking numbers, which I assume means they've booked a pickup for a parcel with RM? Tracking doesn't say anything yet other than that a parcel is due to be delivered). I was already a Very customer so didn't join especially for the iPhone and even on the morning preorders opened on all other websites their advisors were telling people on Twitter that Very wouldn't be taking preorders until October! So, hopefully their buyers did get some stock and it comes Friday. Also ordered a Series 1 watch that also says delivery Friday.


What model have you gone for?

Apple should definitely send the first one ordered for free, so many at 8:03 8:04 8:08 the guy at 8:00:34 should get a reward

Damn you everyone else's is moving forward and mine hasn't haha

My one also not moving :(
 
Just looked at my account and nothing has changed on the phone side of things but my watch has got 'awaiting payment' on it! I'm guessing Halifax have blocked the payment so a long phone call to them after work I guess!

I just phoned them and they said to try again from midnight and it should go through! How is everybody this evening?

I must have been very close! I was 8:02:14. For the record my iPhone 7 Plus 128GB Black is still at 27 Sep - 29 Sep :(

I ordered a JB 256 7+ through apple with estimated delivery date of 3rd - 10th October. I ordered a backup with very around 11.50 on Friday, when I checked my account today it says delivery by Friday 16th September (delivery date checked on 11-09-2016), not sure how reliable this is but it's giving me a little bit of hope I'll see one on launch day.
 
If Apple have charged my bank account yet my iPhone is due 27th then does that mean I'll get it earlier?

SO who else has reserved the iphone for the upgrade program?, i have a 32gb black iphone 7 myself, just want to see whos with me :')
 
So I ordered a 128GB silver 7+ on Friday and it is due to be delivered this Friday 16th.

No money has been taken yet... They've taken the £1 on Friday evening... I'm off travelling for 3 months next week so very anxious!!!!
Same one as me - I have full confidence in Apple's delivery process (unless they fail of course and then there'll be trouble!!)
 
Three cases so far, but my 256gb Matte Black is still stuck on 27-29th delivery. Kind of wish i'd ordered sooner now. I was on the app by 8:05am, but once i saw the delivery times I started to look at other models, contemplated whether to order at all, changed delivery address to one better for the end of the month etc meaning my email confirmation wasn't until 08:13. Hope it doesn't cost me getting my delivery bumped up. That said I'm away from the morning of the 17th, so unless it arrives on launch day it might as well not arrive until the 29th.

Love seeing things like this!

Out of interest, is there any difference between the two clear cases?

Thanks!
 
When did your processing email go through? I was 08:02:14 and i am still 27-19th Sept!

I'm in the same boat. Order went through at 8:04ish and 27-29th Sept for the exact same model. Not sure how the system is working here.
