So my 6+ was sent today and I'm borrowing a 5s until the new phone arrives. I got a locked price of 340 for it from mobilecashmate but the price wouldn't be honoured if I didn't get it there by the end of the week. Feels very odd using a 16gb slower phone for now but will make the new one seem so much sweeter.

Delivering between 20-22 at the moment. Hoping it's not UPS so I can collect from the depot. Both U.K. Mail and DPD are very close to my house!
 
Just finished work and reading through the last few pages,

1. People ordering from Very are you really that surprised?
2. Don't think they'll be black or jet black pluses here until next week at some point
3. Can people PLEASE stop saying they're going to an Apple Store and queuing on Friday, it's not happening, Apple stopped the queuing thing due to health and safety and customers wellbeing when they released the Apple Watch last year

We have to assume that Apple is preparing a very large iPhone 7+ shipment, mainly black and jet black to the UK. Literally nowhere has them. We can easily assume that even Apple themselves didn't have them to start with.
I'd expect some resolution within a week of launch.
 
I wonder if JL will still let you pre-order the out of stock models tonight, be interesting to see what the delivery dates show on those.
It will, it says available to buy from 8pm, not sure what the dates will be though, I'm guessing Oct/Nov if they don't have them in stock now.
 
At the Keynote it said "NO in-app purchases". On the store it says it offers in-app purchases.

You can download for free for trial then you can purchse the full game if you liked it. That's why there's in-app purchase.

I don't think it will. It looks like it will allow you to order items that are in stock. The reason it says available from 8pm is because each of the colour is a modification of a product SKU to John Lewis, and most of them have at least one colour available.
 
What a load of sh*t from Very

Cancelled my apple order for 27-29th aswell as very done the 12 months no interest

Why are some people getting the phone automatically added to their support profile?

My 6+ wasn't on there and that was preordered direct from Apple.
 
Hi

Who does Apple use to ship there products within the U.K. Anyone know?

Thanks
If they are coming direct to us from China then it will be UPS. If they are already in the UK then it could by UPS, DPD or UKMail :)
So all these lovely posts about tracking the shipping from China and getting build dates etc, is this only for the US? Or can we have a go too?

By this time last year I seem to remember we knew which delivery agent we'd be with due to order numbers etc. Is this just a case of waiting until we get the tracking numbers?
If Apple decide to ship straight from China to us then we can do it to! But they could have our phones already in the UK at a warehouse
My Very order has now changed on the order page to "Delivery by Saturday 5th November 2016"

****s.
They sound like an awful company :( what was the original estimate?
 
Original estimate from Very was release day. Whilst their website ordering page changed progressively the order status still said this Friday until earlier this afternoon.
 
Just put in an order for an iphone 7 Plus 128GB Black with Apple. Regret cancelling my first order with them, had a 27th delivery window, now it's 7th October. Still not too bad, I suppose.

I placed a new order too at Apple earlier today for 7+ Black. I've preordered jet black on the 9th after preorderes opened, but after seeing pictures of jet black review units and late delivery eatimates I'd rather get a matte black version a lot sooner. 7th of October is not too bad.
