Really? Release day last year I called the Trafford centre in the afternoon and went about 8/9pm and picked up my 64gb 6s plus with no pre order or reservation. Granted that a whole new model is more popular but I still don't see how they are managing to restock just half the range
Thanks,
Thanks, if I can get an iPhone 6 soon and before the Iphone 7 moves to shipping, I'll likely cancel the order. I sold my 6S plus 64gb for £470 about 3 weeks, kind of regret it but didn't know I'd feel the way I do as I've always been happy with the new iPhones.
I'm actually considering a downgrade to a regular Iphone 6 either 64gb/128gb and would rather a space grey. Don't want to pay more than £300. The smaller iPhone will feel like something new at least.....just need to find one.

Yep for the 6 Plus and 6S Plus I queued up overnight and go exactly what I wanted. They weren't even doing queues this year for the Plus models
Crazy! Just found my e-receipt, I just rocked up to the store at 9pm and it wasn't especially busy. Must have been lucky as I got what I wanted.
Just spent some time looking at the availability page - it seems they've updated the way the page works, and now it doesn't use the old availability JSON file. It now uses a different endpoint which is only queried when you select a store in the dropdown, and furthermore it's using some cookie trickery to, assumedly, stop people scraping the data. Luckily it's not particularly sophisticated, so I should be able to update my tracking tool this evening.
I imagine this change is why my personal tracker and also the one over at https://code.gladdy.uk/iphone/ doesn't show some Plus stock - I assume https://code.gladdy.uk/iphone/ is also using the old endpoint.
EDIT: Looks like https://reserve.cdn-apple.com/GB/en...290A2E7847CF8309&rv=0&path=&iPP=E&appleCare=Y still uses the availability JSON and https://reserve-gb.apple.com/GB/en_GB/reserve/iPhone?execution=e3s1 doesn't; the latter is what the iPhone Upgrade Program page links to now though...

My theory on that is that with iPhone 6 apple didn't release any new colours, i mean if you look iPhone 5S people had a hard time getting there hands on Gold with iPhone 6S people had a hard time getting Rose Gold and this year with iPhone 7 people are having a hard time getting there hands on Jet Black and black there two new colours just my thought on it
No movement on the rose gold 256 7+ I ordered for my sister. Delivery 20-22nd. Still processing items. Didn't use Apple Pay just a card, no payment taken yet no notification from bank either about a declined transaction. Guessing it's not coming tomorrow.
If payment is taken your could change and time mate, my payment hasn't even been taken so god knows when mine will change!
My payment has been taken too. That happened on Saturday though so no idea how good a sign that is. Still preparing for destpatch with a delivery of 20-22. Hmm
There is only one endpoint though? There are no non-iPP reservations, and it's still using the availability JSON. It must just be that not all the delivery servers have the same data.
Unless you're talking about the paid reservations via the Apple Store which is a different api, but that's not what the screenshot here showed.
At least it's been paid for, I reckon all of a sudden those who have had the payment taken will do dispatched with next day delivery.
My account hadn't been debited yet. The action is still pending for payment so it has been authorized by Lloyds.
Still on PFD
I would say so and I think they will be dispatched later today or tomorrow
Hi everyone!
I've been reading this thread since the start, well trying to keep up is probably more accurate.
I wanted to pick my 7+ up in store and go on the iPhone upgrade program but when there was no stock availabile in stores I had to preorder for delivery, currently 7-10th of October.
I read on here that when we get them we can take our paid for phones into an Apple Store, get a full refund and sign up for the iPhone upgrade program instead.
Does anyone have any proof of this cos I've just called Apple and they said there is no truth in this rumour?
Cheers.

Yeah, I agree with bazooka-joe above.
I recall a launch a while back where it went from preparing, shipped & delivered in the course of 36 hours. Had to have been UK already.
Does yours show up in "My Support Profile?". AW did while it was still PFD. But my iphone isn't there yet.
I asked about online orders yesterday and returning to a retail store and T's & C's say that you can. So I believe you could take your phone back to a retail store and they will credit you a gift card and you can sign up for the upgrade programme. But it will be a new transaction and the phone you want may not be available as you cant repurchase the phone that you returned through the upgrade programme.....unless someone on here can correct me on this matter

No mines not on there either. I am not too worried as its just part of the logistics workflow. I would rather see 'Shipped' on my order
That's what I would have thought too, but some people are saying they have / have been told you can repurchase the phone you are returning straight on iUP.
