I now have a depature scan from ZhengZhou
I moved to three a few years back as I was sick of EE's crappy signal lol! It was at the time where everyone charged for 4G except three, so I moved to the one plan - which was awesome at the time and as the programme was terminated and I was switched to the one i'm on now. I have noted that it is a little slower than it used to be (I have noted at the train station at 5pm it goes to a crawl, as soon as the train pulls away it works well again) but at times it is phenominally fast, one week I was camping and got 103.28 download with 32.28 upload and it stayed around that for the entire time I stayed there.
My issue with Three was driving, every phone call I made on a motorway got dropped as there was a dead spot or something between masts. Also lived just outside Windsor and would have to pull over in the bus stop just past Legoland if I was on the phone driving home or the call would drop half a mile later.
Also no Wi-Fi Calling, which is essential, their app for it was terrible.
Just rang Apple to try and change my payment method and was told no because the "£1 authorisation" via Apple Pay was successful. Yet nothing has been taken from or reserved from my account. I pray for her sake that she's right and everything is ok! Now just the waiting game...... hoping they move 4-10 October forward ASAP!!
She also told me that there will be no JB 128gb 7+s in store anytime soon as they are all going to preorders.

I remember being in the Peak District once, think it was Monday Head. Most mobile phone companies back then had terrible signals there bar Three.
I did consider joining them on a SIMO plan and buying my iPhone outright but my biggest issue with them was there Customer Service.
I had an Acer laptop once on a mobile broadband plan. Once I'd reached the minimum term I called to cancel it.
Wish I'd never bothered. The chap on the other end of the line wouldn't give up!
I do agree with the point raised about unlimited data. Obviously the One Plan is long gone now but there must be a fair few customers with AYCE data using the network which won't help.
Yep mines still hanging out in ZhengZhou
Hope it's having fun while I sit here twiddling my thumbs...
Have another check. Mine looks like it's on its way now!
As mine has been dispatched, I copied the tracking number from the Apple Order site and pasted it in the UPS app which provides a summary of where it has been and a rough delivery timeframe. You can also use the UPS website.

Haha yes! Just checked, it's left China! So it is probably on a flight to Europe

The way I look at this thread is a bit of fun where you see the same names year in, year out. I don't think anyone particularly means when they are raging about a phone.
Look, We all know there's much worse to life than a poxy phone.
When you get users jumping in and stomping their feet to make themselves feel big it takes away from the harmless fun of it.
Yes I think Apple screwed up this launch, probably through greed and launching earlier before everything was in place. I suspect they'll learn for next year.
Remember people to leave Apple feedback otherwise nothing will get done!
I'll repeat what I said earlier - the 6 and 6 plus launch was far worse than this - web orders were shot in much the same way, no stock in stores for weeks rather than days.
I don't get why people seem to think this is worse and surely they launched before everything was in place etc. It's just the norm. I didn't get the 6s iteration, so maybe things were better then, but every launch I've been involved in as been pretty much like this....
I last checked on Friday evening (it said "Still Processing"). I did also check it over the weekend but there was no change. When I then checked it this morning, it had changed to "Preparing for Dispatch".
Ah right! I just tried it - no results!As mine has been dispatched, I copied the tracking number from the Apple Order site and pasted it in the UPS app which provides a summary of where it has been and a rough delivery timeframe. You can also use the UPS website.

Thanks for your input - genuinely, because I'm sat here thinking people are nuts - this always happens. So maybe last year was a better year, and therefore people are perhaps more expectant of smooth sailing.
Just some of the posts here are getting a bit hysterical IMO.

Hi Guys,
Thoughts on this , i have gone from a 6 64GB to a 7 128GB matte black, if i'm honest i,m now wowed by it so thinking of going to a 6S so get some of the newer features that the 6 didn't have, has anyone got a 6S 64GB in space grey that was from Apple in mint cond etc they would be looking to sell on.
