iPhone 7/7+ - UK Orders & Dispatches Thread

I've just had an email from Punkt to say they're going to do their dumb-phone in white & brown now as well as black.

If it wasn't for not having a camera with me at all times I'd be all over this - sick to death of notifications, version updates & keeping things in sync across so many devices. I think I was more content without apps & low-level anxiety about bull**** of all kinds ...

For the people freaking out about people who ordered the same phone after you... chill the f out! They will be scanning a massive pile of iPhones onto a van in no particular order.

There's still plenty of time yet.

Although I agree with you why is my order still telling me 4th-10th Oct when I pre ordered before others who have been pushed up to 26-29 and even 20-23 or whichever for the same exact device

Well interestingly I just got my Dispatched email from Apple, and its being sent by UK MAIL not UPS! And it is already in the UK! I expected to see it in China when I clicked the tracking link! Looks like I will be getting it tomorrow! :)

Awesome bud! I hope you enjoy it. Not every model is going to be shipped from China. Poor being dispatched via UK Mail though lol non stop complaints about them!

So after receiving my shiny new jet black 128gb on Friday I decided to trade in my iPhone 6 64gb to game, seems to be the best price at the moment... the process ain't smooth, first waited 25 minutes, then a 10 minute argument with the very knowledgeable chap behind the counter. Apparently according to him all iPhones sold by apple are auto locked to the first network sim interested, he has bought all his iPhones from apple and that happened to him, told him he was incorrect a few times which seemed to make him a little mad, would only offer grade C price for a pristine condition phone, was expecting grade B at least given the phone has been cased since I got it and all original accessories are in the box.

I left the store at that point and will try another store, maybe it was the end of hard day but dearly me it was hard work

Good, don't take their ****. Go elsewhere, the guy clearly was trying it.

Better not be... plenty of pre-orders to fulfil, giving it to stores is out of order when people are being given October/November dates with pre-order day orders.

Just to wind both you and I up (even though i'm seriously considering canceling my order)

MacRumors reader Daniel was told to expect his Jet Black iPhone 7 Plus in November, but will be receiving it tomorrow, while another customer had a delivery scheduled for October 4 to 10, but will instead receive his iPhone on Wednesday. There are also multiple reports on Twitter from customers who have had similar good news, including some improved delivery estimates from carriers.

@MacRumors just got a shipment notification on my Jet Black 7+. Way ahead of schedule.

What a muppet that guy is! You purchase it unlocked for a reason directly from Apple. It's certainly not locked to the first network that is entered o_O

That pricing is extortionate for a dumb phone. You can pickup cheaper smart phones.

Tried to tell him that, he was a bit annoyed started to raise his voice, in the end I think he knew he was wrong but the hole he had dug was too big to get out of

I wonder how long it will take a 128gb JB+ with email confirmation at 11.10am to move! Imagine I am prob still quite far down the waiting list :rolleyes:

With all the problems getting into the Apple Store (simultaneously on 3 devices) and trying to access the upgrade programme I reserved a Gold which wasn't my first choice. At around at 11am I decided to order a JB after setting up PayPal credit.
