iPhone 7 Plus 128GB Silver, ordered 8:09am, money is taken but I'm still preparing for dispatch! I've had my case delivered already!

Excited !!
 
Looking at my DPD app, mine is in Leicester on it's way to my local depot in Bournemouth for delivery tomorrow. Going to check the motorways now and keep an eye out on the traffic. If i hear there has been an incident and a DPD van was involved i'll be mortified!

All UK stock flies into East Midlands airport, goes to their warehouse which I think is in Hinkley last time I checked. Just outside Leicester. You want me to go there and grab all y'all phones?
 
Well I've had nothing from Apple. They could at least send a message and say it's not coming.

Nothing for me yet, either. Have a matte black 128gb 7 and a silver 128gb 7 Plus. Still says processing for dispatch online and still says delivers 16th September...

Suspect it could be the Plus that's delaying things - the 7 was available for UK pickup at time of order whereas the Plus wasn't and looks to have come from China to be re-bundled here in the UK.
 
Congrats to everyone getting their iPhone delivered tomorrow :)

I'd be really keen to hear what everyone's predicted order dates were, plus what configuration (size, colour, capacity) you ordered.

I'm still being incredibly hopeful that some of the 20-22 September orders will get bumped to tomorrow, but it's not looking good :(
I think for the moment it is only those who had a 16/09 confirmation.
Mine was confirmed for 16th, black iPhone 7 128gb...

Those of us who want to join the program clearly missed out on getting an iPhone on launch day purely because of the way we were choosing to pay for the phone.

+1 Had I known that the IUP was going to prevent me from placing an order I would have immediately gone for a straight out purchase.
 
Mines the same pick up at metro centre. Same with my credit card as well disappeared from there as well.
I also spoke to apple who said it's fine so I'll just turn up if it's not there then ive cause to complain.
im also pickup metro centre at 8am. still processing too.

Did you not select to split order so whatever is available gets shipped? :eek:
 
Really you need it to be explained to you??? Apple had such little stock if any that sold out in minutes, so that means people could not order from Apple direct. Word got round that Very were showing stock available for delivery on 16th, obviously it now transpires Very never had the stock in the first place but it isn't rocket science to work out why people took a punt elsewhere.

lol, all I've heard is that people are having a nightmare with their Very orders... So you can imagine why I am questioning it!
 
My Apple 7 32GB black has shipped via UK Mail, delivered tomorrow.
My Vodafone 7 32GB black, I haven't heard a thing since I pre-ordered via upgrade online at 8am on pre-order day. They use DPD, and there is no parcel with them yet, as their app shows any parcels logged as coming to your address.

Not holding out much hope Vodafone will get the phone to me tomorrow. Their Twitter, Live Chat and Phone customer service is appalling as well, they just say 'it'll come when it comes'.
 
How do you order to collect? When I try it says "no pick up" at my local store?

Ordered it last Friday, same as any other pre-order but selected store pick up. The pick up option was suspended when stock ran out earlier this week.

I think the pick up option is available again from tomorrow morning at 6:01am online and on the app, but don't know what sort of pick up date they will offer.
 
Just got off the phone with Apple and he said that they are being quite conservative with the delivery windows - he said most customers got a delivery window of 27th-29th but that I can expect it sooner than that. Looking hopeful!
 
You don't be able to reserve for in store collection until Saturday now.

Your best bet is to try a walk-in (so long as you don't want a plus)
I was replying to someone else who was trying to pre-order for collection. I already have my pre-order in.

Wow you want everyone's details? That's going to be one mega thread right there!! :eek:
 
Amazing.

I got annoyed at everyone changing their address and getting the order bumped up from 27-29, but as I genuinely needed the address changed I went on chat with Apple.

They assured me the orders were first come, first served and they also assured me that the order page 'delivers' date was 'real time'. I explained what you guys were doing and she said she couldn't comment, just repeated when my order was coming (27-29) and that the tracking was real time. But she could change the address for me with no impact on my order, so we went through with that.

Can you guess what it says now?

20-22nd.

I tried getting the rep to understand what had just happened, as it directly contradicted what she told me earlier in the chat. I asked her to double check the 'delivers' date and she gave me the dates 20th-22nd. Unfortunately she refused to comment on it, because she just started bombarding me with copy/paste messages about order confirmations and iPhone personal set up. Was she flustered or something?

If anyone wants a funny read i can post the log.

Plus side, my phone hasn't been delayed and is now going to my term time address, which will save me some hassle, even if I am sceptical of the new date.
 
Interesting call from my local apple store as I'm a business customer.

He said that as a business customer I can get a jet black if I wanted as Apple have ring fenced stock of all phones for business customers.

I don't think changing the address actually makes your phone arrive any earlier, it just forces caches along the logistics stack to update. I think it would have updated to the 20-22nd eventually anyway, probably at the point the next "event" happened.
