iPhone 7/7+ - UK Orders & Dispatches Thread

Email from Very.

"We’re really sorry but there has been a delay with the stock and we won't be able to despatch your order just yet. At this moment in time, the Apple iPhone 7 Plus is so popular that there is not enough stock in the UK to meet demand.

You’re a valued customer and we know this is frustrating so we’ll treat this delay with the highest priority. We are hoping to deliver your Apple iPhone 7 Plus in early October."
 
Still no movement here - 8:15 email confirmation (Original delivery date 27-29). Received my Project(RED) Silicone Case yesterday and it's really nice :)

Just spoke to envirofone. They have told me not to worry about going past the 23rd of September cut of date as they automatically extend the quoted offer you have locked in via an email extending their offer for another 7 days making their cut off the 30th. Luckily for me my order for the iPhone 7 Plus is quoted as arriving on the 27-29th. Hopefully this information helps someone out who's in the same predicament.

Anyone else's very order still state delivery 17/9? I'll be cancelling my order.

To be honest I may hold out and do the upgrade program. Been thinking about it more and think it'll do me fine. Saves laying out £819!!
 
"Unfortunately we cannot cancel your order because it's already being processed by our supplier" - Very.

Right.. brilliant.

Interestingly, I also ordered a Spigen screen protector for my 7+ from Amazon and it was delivered quite shattered (although the packaging looked okay from the outside). Odd. I returned it but haven't yet ordered another. Let me know if you do get a replacement Spigen one and if the replacement arrives intact. Thanks!

In the end I ordered JETech plastic one and G-Color Glass one - both came today and all ok. I think I'll use the plastic one on Friday and see how I go :)

I had a thought about this earlier this week. Will the 64GB go up or stay the same as I think that really is the sweet spot for size. 32GB too small and 128GB probably overkill. SO even though it is an old model, probably more desired now?

That seems like a very sensible thought, I concur..
 
This year seems more farcical. It seems Apple has spread their stock to more resellers such as Very and they in turn have not got the allocation they wanted or were promised. This will in turn result in a lot of unhappy people.

Some people who ordered directly from Apple, have seen their estimated dates drop yet those who placed an order earlier still haven't seen any movement.

I have had a new iPhone every year, but it seems to get more complicated every year... and yet we all sit rocking in a chair waiting for the little box to arrive. lol
 
Just got a call from the Apple business team who said they were prioritising a batch of phones for developers. I asked about iPhone 7 plus JB and they said that even with priority the earliest delivery possible at present was September 30th.
 
Right. Very order has been cancelled completely. Money should be back into my account within 2-3 days.

Think I'll try my luck with John Lewis. If not, I'll wait until the money is back in my account and then order from Apple. Should have stuck with my first Apple Order. Lesson learnt.

Couldn't find any actual iPhone 7 branded ones so ordered the iPhone 6S ones as no doubt, these will be exactly the same as the iPhone 7.

My email from Very says it will be despatched on Friday for delivery Saturday which isn't TOO bad. They weren't going to be taking preorders until October originally and so Apple must've said they would be getting stock as why would they open preorders otherwise? Seems to be a lot of hate for Very on here but as it's pretty much every retailer and phone company having the same issues I think it's obvious where the real blame lies...
 
No email from Very yet.

It still says "Delivery by Saturday 17 September (Delivery date checked on 13/09/2016)" and when I track it it says

"Order being processed at supplier
12 September, 2016
12:38:07"
 
People who ordered from Very were warned several times in this thread.. I do feel bad for you all though.
