iPhone 7/7+ - UK Orders & Dispatches Thread

I'll be either hearing something for my iPhone 7 Plus either Tomorrow or Thursday as they Email a day before then send it the day after so fingers crossed for tomorrow,

Apparently the bloke i spoke to said we've just got a large quantity of stock today
 
Lol recalled UK Mail again (Docklands) and they immediately hung up. You could hear the phone being slammed.
 
Just wondering if any of you lucky people getting the 7 have a 6 or 6S Plus leather Apple case for sale? Preferably Saddle Brown, or maybe Red, in good condition. I'm decided to hold on to my 6S Plus for another year but thought I'd try a different case for a change.

I should state that I'm not there to sign for it but someone is. I won't know if it's arrived until I get there later tonight. So in theory it could be that the tracking has failed but who knows.

I'm getting Nexus 4 delivered by TNT vibes. Their driver half inched my phone but delivered the bumper haha.

OK well that does give me some hope still at least - but UK Mail are not at all helpful on the phone, even though when I speak to them at first they all seem lovely.
 
Ok finally someone helpful from UK Mail (a lady - they are always more helpful!), the driver has stated that he is 10-20 minutes away :) Yay!

I'm about to sign on on mine and leave it restoring from last night's iCloud backup, while I pop into to town and flog my 6S+ to CPW (I lose £20 on the recycling website's price, but far simpler).

Please let me know how CPW process for selling goes and report back to me later.

I want to do same, Apple have repaired my 6S+ and shows as reposted back so hopefully will reach the store tomorrow and i can sell it when i pick it up

That's ominous. How late is yours?

Not late yet, I was given a window of 3-4pm. My worry was that UKMail's website wasn't updating with the delivery tracker, so it looks like the driver has just stalled somewhere and decided to piss me off. Fortunately, that's not the case. As you can tell, I'm very impatient. It's karma though for me taking the piss out of people over here that haven't even got theirs delivered.

UPDATE: UKMail actually called me back to tell me how long it will take lol. Maybe they aren't as bad, just their online tracking system has AIDS.

Well I sold my 6S Plus to CPW through their website. Pre paid package turned up 2 days later, I sent it off, 2 days later they received ( I sent it past the cutoff for next day) and paid me same day into my bank account. Only downside is that their prepaid package only insures up to £50, they recommend in their letter to do £7 RM Special Delivery for up to £500 cover. They know they're going to be taking in mostly expensive devices, I suppose it's a cost saving technique. Besides that, can't fault. I had a few scratches on my screen and this didn't diminish the price at all from the original quoted £400 (6S+ 64GB). I only mention about the lack of diminishing price, is because I've heard some horror stories in this thread for the most minor issues having their prices slashed by a few hundred.
 
There were no store pick ups at 6am today on the website but by fluke i checked again at 11am and the matte blacks were in stock at Covent Garden for pick up today. I ordered and picked up a 128GB at 2pm. I was told a big shipment had arrived today. No idea though if more will arrive later this week for pick ups

Just managed to reserve 7+ 128 GB Matte Black in White City thanks to the push notification code from our friend :)

I tried following the readme, but not being literate in code, I flapped about for a bit and failed. Any tips are welcome! :D
 
It would be lovely if all those people managing to get reserved black pluses 128GB at Apple stores have also ordered online so that my delivery time moves up from Oct 12-18 ;)

Any of the people who have their delivery coming from China via UPS starting to have doubts? My expected delivery is tomorrow but it has just left Kazakhstan and think it is on its way to Germany having looked at flights from Almaty.

This appears to be the flight they are on...

Probably stopping Cologne, Germany. Then hopefully another small flight tonight to the UK to get to the Central depot and through the night to the local depot. Still hopeful!

How long does it take for the tracking number to be registered in the Synceron/UK Mail system? Mine was dispatched at 12:24 and is still not showing any tracking information?

Black 128+ collected from Basingstoke.

Will be cancelling my early October pre order so hopefully that bumps someone up!

Picked up a case as well. Don't know if I will use it or not yet though.
