iPhone 7/7+ - UK Orders & Dispatches Thread

For is that due delivery on Friday I'm going to take a punt and say our stock must be in the UK already. If it was in China they would of surely been dispatched already.
 
My Saddle brown iPhone 7 leather case is about to be delivered to me at work any moment now. If only all couriers could have the same amazing tracking system as DPD.

Jet black Phone 7 128GB is still weeks away yet though.

I've tried a massive amount of screen protectors, over the years, for my iPhone 6 - wet install types, tempered glass types, standard flimsy film types, however, I always end up with these two brands:

As you can see, the Anker Tempered Glass was ordered from Amazon WAAAY back in July 2015 and is STILL on my iPhone 6 this very minute - absolutely superb screen protector. It has no scratches or marks on it and has kept the screen of my iPhone 6 in absolutely pristine condition and finger free!

I highly recommend both these products (and NO, I don't work for Anker or Spigen or Amazon!!!!!).
:cool:

To give you an idea of the scarcity of the Jet Black Plus, an embargo seems to have recently lifted and reviews of the 7 are trickling out.

The standard-issue review unit set seems to be a Jet Black 7 and (matte) Black 7 Plus.

So not even Apple legends like Mossberg have been able to get Jet Black Pluses.

Agreed. Happy to wait a bit longer to get the phone and iOS as new experiences at the same time. Also avoids whatever potential '*gate' that might come if something's wrong with iOS 10

...so are people on here gonna be updating their existing iPhone 6 and 6 Plus to iOS 10 today or are you all gonna wait for your new shiny iPhone 7, before you have a play with iOS 10?!

:D

We're not updating to iOS 10. When we receive our new phones and watches it will be something new to play with :)

Ditto.

Not updating to iOS 10 on my phone or Watch until I get the new ones. Done it already on my iPad though, but it's a whole other experience on the phone.

John Lewis website is stating " Available to buy from 8am 16 September 2016" under each iPhone 7 link.

So...

Who else has any form of Jet Black device guaranteed for Friday delivery/pick-up?

At the minute it seems no-one else posting here - the onus is on me to provide this thread's glossy-shiny-lusty photos! :p

Ordered 7, 128, Jet Black from EE. I was half an hour late after messing around on the Applesite trying to get a reservation. At the time (on preorder day) it said ships in 7 days by DPD. So I guess I'll find out in a couple days....

It's much better than previous releases of iOS 10 betas.

I know they are expected to be buggy as people report feedback and Apple resolve the issue(s) but the GM release is stable and I shan't imagine Apple will need to push out any smaller updates after 10.0.1 lands at 6pm this evening.
 
Sorry if this has been asked before but I don't plan to go through 158 pages to find the answer.

Has anyone with an iPhone pre-ordered for store pickup (preorder not reservation) had it move up beyond the Processing status? I had issues with payment when Apple tried to charge on Sunday but I've sorted it with my bank and successfully reauthorised payment that's now showing in Online Banking. However, I'm just worried that the delay might end up... delaying things?

Does anybody know what the availability of models in stores will be? I'm thinking of going to the Milton Keynes Store early on Friday. I hope to pick up a Jet Black 7 Plus 128GB. Would you expect them to have any in stock?

...ahh, cheers for that !

And Gruber's has just landed. Often considered the best review.

Maybe ours are coming from China and if you get charged later in the week it means it's coming from the UK?

If it says the 16th I can't see why it wouldn't come then.
[doublepost=1473759563][/doublepost]
Even on Friday.

I agree with your theories however I believe the OP you initially responded to implied that they didn't even have the £1 hold charge. So I would suspect that it maybe one of the ones affected with banking issues...

But you're right, if they charge on Wednesday, that'd still be plenty of time to get stuff shipped for arrival on Friday...

I had a problem with Lloyds Bank; I used my Choice Rewards American Express on Friday as it's currently earning double the points for me to accrue.

Over the weekend there was an error message saying I was unable to view my pending transactions.

Card has been charged as of this morning; as they are sister banks under the LBG I reckon they've had a fair backlog since pre-orders commenced last Friday.

Hopefully you'll get it sorted today. I'm blaming Halifax over Apple TBH.

I purchased mine with my Lloyds Choice Amex card. no payment is showing my account and pending transactions doesn't load either.

Well we seem to be getting screwed over with Plus Matt blacks too.
