iPhone 7/7+ - UK Orders & Dispatches Thread

[mgirg]

It seems the dispatchings have dried up...

Nope,

Just received an email from DPD for delivery tomorrow. When I check the Apple Store app though it still says preparing to dispatch!

 

[Apple fanboy]

Still pfd 20-22nd. Which for me says it won't get here before the 21st at the earliest. More likely the 23nd.
Managed to agree a price on my 6+ 64gb at work for £350. Doesn't have a mark on it, so the new owner should be happy.
Basically means if I keep my iPhone for 2 years, it will have cost me £19 a month. A good deal cheaper than the upgrade program.

I have a 8:10 confirmation iPhone 7 Plus 32GB Black which has been PFD since Friday, still not dispatched! Seems to be no 32 GBs going tonight...

I just don't think we should get our hopes up for tomorrow now!

Does anyone know if you change your DPD delivery to collect from local pickup shop can you collect it same day? E.g. I can't guarantee someone will be in tomorrow so was going to get it diverted to the local Halfords as that's open until 8pm tomorrow.

Yes you can redirect, did that with the iPad Pro 9.7 had it delivered to a local pick up point and it got there way before they would have go to me.

Now I did it straight away, I did not wait till it was out for delivery.

Mine is still PFD, I've ordered a 7+ Matte Black 128gb

Perfect thank you. I was going to do it tonight as knowing my luck my hour would be when no-one is home!

My phone has gone from Hinckley to Smethwick which is further away from me haha.

Yep. I just did it and got email cofirmation five minutes later that it will be available to pick up from 12pm tomorrow

 

[thornegt]

And me

Its so disappointing because I spoke to Apple today and they said it was in the U.K. Ready to deliver...

Mines just showed up as Awaiting Payment again. Gonna have to ring them and check. Already checked with the bank and all seems okay with them

What bank you with?

Fellow 32GB 7+ JB/B people, what were your confirmation times?

 

[Sheza]

I think you can - BUT the best option is to download the app and set it in that for all deliveries so they don't try and send it to your address first. You can change it back after. I've done this. I am happy to wait a little longer as long as I can pick it up at some point and not have to worry about waiting around.

This doesn't work for orders that have already been dispatched. SP if you set up the app now and set your first delivery preference to be a pick up shop, the delivery will still be attempted at your own address first. You'll have to manually intercept, and it will get to your pickup shop before 12PM the next day.

Did the exact thing for my Watch.

Its much cooler being a 4-10er. A 4-10er is a more sophisticated, calm and patient, even refined person.

There's a lot of talk on social media of people being distraught to be seeing despatched emails. Hoping beyond hope to join the trendy 4-10er set.

4-10ers don't wait for iPhones, iPhones wait for them. 4-10ers don't do hysteria, well not until the 3rd

Fellow 32GB 7+ JB/B people, what we're your confirmation times?

8:10

 

[aeroalex]

So they actually said your phone was ready to be delivered tomorrow? Must be ready in some warehouse somewhere then!

 

[eddie24]

I've been an active member of this thread practically since the first page. Read every post, and replied to a lot too! However it was all to appease my wait for the following image. Don't want to jinx it yet, with my luck so far, I will be the last person on the delivery wagon and then they will reschedule mine for the next working day. Fortunately, that's less likely since mine is a business address.

Don't want to sell me one of those, do you?

8:10

Ahh strange that's my confirmation time too! Must be in the same batch then surely

 

[zachariah__king]

Yep, they said it is ready to be loaded on the lorry to be delivered! They said it happens late at night so there maybe still hope..?!

Haha I'd love to, but I'm no scalper! One is for me, the other for my dad

There won't be that many 32GB JB people.

 

[03sho]

What's the latest order status where you can cancel an order?

Hmmm interesting that they said that to you, well there's definitely still hope then! Fingers crossed there's more dispatches to come
