Us poor 4-10th aren't gonna see any movement until end of the month I don't think. Was hoping for a delivery this week (wishful thinking I know) but still! Very excited to get it
Got a tip for us?

I can honestly say that in 6 years I've hardly ever had an issue and in my experience my speeds have been significantly faster that friends on o2 and three.
For those concerned, why not give them a go and if not happy use their 30 day cancellation policy. That way you can test out, best case get a great deal, worst case cancel and go elsewhere.
That would be awesome, WiFi calling is only thing im particularly interested in myself.
Just had a look at BT, doesnt look bad tbh, 20£ for unlimited mins/text and 15gb of 4g data. It also seems to mention some kind of 80£ amazon gift card. Anyone have BT mobile and knows if wifi calling or visual voicemail works natively on iphone with them?
So what's the general thought on deliveries?
Mine (like most) has been PTS since Friday. Is it still possible that it could be shipped today and deliveries made tomorrow?
I know they move quite quickly.

...no network can be any worse than O2 - absolutely abysmal 4G coverage in the London Bridge area.
I'd be sitting on the train, in the station (before it leaves the station), and using 3G was actually FASTER than using 4G. 4G was utterly non existent - trying to open web pages or browsing my twitter feed, on my iPhone 6 would just talke forever - the dreaded spinning 'loading' circle would just continually spin and spin.
Now that I have moved to EE, these same web pages, open instantly (whilst sitting on the SAME EXACT TRAIN, at the same EXACT location!!). EE is far superior to anything O2 can offer......!
Placed an order on Sept 9 at 8:32am for an iPhone 7 Plus, Black, 128GB — Paid with Apple Pay and currently says 4—10 Oct and is still within the processing stage.
Reading through the thread, people seem to be changing their payment method from Apple Pay to a Debit/Credit card — why is this, is there a problem with Apple Pay? Should I change my payment method too?

Anyone else split screening?
I'd like to think so but would need the shipments to originate in the U.K....
FINGERS CROSSED!

Agreed, When i used to live in bedfordshire I would get the worst pings and speeds I have ever had in my life (1000+ ms, D:0.2mb/s) I gave them 6 months and they never fixed it (They tried to blame it on my sim card & phone when I had changed both in that time) - When I cancelled my contract I told them I'm not paying the £20 left because they never resolved any of this issue (It meant whenever I visted my family I couldnt use my phone properly) few arguements with support on the phone and they took the money off and Experia shows my o2 contract being done and over with so sod them.

Has anyone's JB Plus changed in status yet? anyone?!
I've got a 128GB JB+ from 8:05 still sat at processing for 26 Sep-3 Oct Delv. I see lots of the US guys getting theirs from that sort of order slot :-/
Sorry, I meant 'Black' not 'Jet Black'. Interesting to hear US getting it despite it saying 4-10 Oct.
Yeah. There's a fair few in this thread, me included. On the way for delivery this Wednesday, status updated last Friday.
For the record, I ordered at 8.03 and had the same delivery slot.
Fingers crossed yours isn't far behind.
I have a SIM only deal with BT. I got a deal on it though and pay £16 a month for unlimited calls/texts and 20Gb of 4G data.
BT do not support visual voicemail although since BT recently bought EE this may change soon.
Native iOS WiFi calling is not supported either, although they do have their own 'smart talk' app which uses WiFi/Data to make calls - I don't use it though as you have to tie it to a landline.
Disappointed I have t seen any movement on my order from PFD since Friday. Tomorrow is the 20th, I was hoping for tomorrow rather than the 22nd.
Yours is the same as mine (I used Apple Pay too) but the week after me as a slightly later preorder - I didn't see anything happen for a week until it moved into 'Preparing For Despatch' and the transaction updated in my Wallet app, though I still can't see anything on my internet banking.
They *might* move it up earlier, but I think their dates are generally accurate & all their current effort will be on this weeks batch first. I know it's tempting, but maybe give yourself a few days off from clicking refresh, not much will likely show up till later this week earliest.
Just a shame their speeds are often cr*p, I've got a Vodafone sim from work and I can't believe how often it shows E, even being on 4G is no guarantee of decent speeds.
The other day with a 4/5 bar signal (and this a fairly common occurrence):
My 6s on EE gets 46Mbps at the same spot, I'd never give up my EE line for Vodafone...
I would not worry just yet, my wife got notification of dispatch on Thursday at 3:30pm for the Friday delivery.... there is still time yet.
I too am hoping to see my black 7 Plus move this afternoon.
At times like this I try and remember the last MacBook Pro I ordered. It was marked as dispatched from China on a Monday evening and turned up at my house in North East England the next morning. Got to keep the dream alive!
I've got no frame of reference (work SIM last several years) but I find Vodafone 3G & 4G coverage ropey too. Today is a good day with 6Mbps down / 3Mbps up.
Massive drop-outs on the East Coast mainline to & from Kings Cross too which is where I really need it, I'd change if I could.
Sorry 20-22nd September
Call your bank to get it authorised then re process it
Guys just a quick update on sending my phone to Music Magpie. I will never trust them again after only offering £45 for mine saying it has a faulty Camera! There was absolutely nothing wrong with the Camera and the phone was in pristine condition. I have a feeling this is to do with them offering me 28 days when it should have only been 14. I am absolutely fuming. Good luck to everyone else getting their new phones and recycling any old ones.
