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

Maybe he fancied it for himself & was looking for a nice price! You did the right thing IMO, smile & walk :cool:

Here comes another batch of dispatch notifications

my second handset has been dispatched by DPD ...

So one by UK Mail and one by DPD... who's number three coming with?? ( all to same address)
 
Hi All!
I was one of the estimated 20th-22nd deliveries for an iPhone 7 Plus Black 128GB. I ordered at 8:07. I had been stuck on 'preparing to dispatch' all weekend, and a few minutes ago I received a dispatched email, detailing that my order will be arriving tomorrow via UKMail.
Over the moon with this, do you know if it's possible to get an hourly delivery window?

Someone on here made it up!

Based on what's happened previous years and my brother works at Covent Garden and confirms they're getting a delivery tonight, but doesn't know how many/what models are coming.

If it's coming from china not a chance, mines been at shanghai airport since Saturday evening

Unless shipping hasn't been fully updated. It did happen last year that some people had it stuck in China then it appeared at their house on the due date.
 
Thats a decent price actually,CEX are offering £247 for one in mint condition unlocked and Envirophone are offering £235.
Yeah that what I thought, pity it was so difficult, might be easier at another store. I would rather keep it as a spare than go through that again
 
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.

Congrats!

In terms of a time slot for delivery, the courier may text you in the morning and their website usually updates also :)

UK Mail should email you a 1 hour delivery window in the morning when it gets loaded onto the couriers van for delivery :)
 
I ordered my 128gb 7plus and got confirmation at 8:03 .. Still no despatched notification. Pissed off about the lack of devices available on launch. I don't mind waiting, but to be told would have been nice :(
