Well they might be prioritising it, but there's only so much stock around. I wouldn't be surprised if that date is worst case scenario and it end up earlier
No problem. glad you managed to get one!
Let me know when you pick it up!
Enjoy!
So eventually I got my 7+ 128 matte.
DPD were to be fair very good. I'd asked for delivery to a drop off point - but that made the delivery a day later because they have to relabel , not the end of the world but knowing it was 2 miles away was a massive bug bear.
Called dpd who pulled the package to one side. I drove to the depot and collected it at 9.20 this morning. I was parked up waiting for them to call me and let me known the situation. Fortunately the depot is on the morning run route for me so not an issue!
Have it. It feels heavier than the 6+. Probably because I've been using a 5 for the time being.

There was actually 3 GM's. I have either the first or second, I haven't seen any big bugs so I haven't been bothered about getting the latest seed, I'll just wait for the next natural update
I normally can't order online as I can't get it delivered tinny flat, as it's secure fob entry, no reception and no one to allow access, I can't have it delivered to work, as we're not allowed. I can't go to a depot to pick it up as it's too far away, like 8 miles away. So for me, store pick up works better, as I can get to the Apple Store.
my point of view is that both sides are getting a fair share. I was pointing out a different point of view, so you could see that you're being a little closed minded and ignorant, because you're just impatient.
I'm hoping this doesn't affect the reservation stock.
Certain people were saying in this thread the other day it's the same stock as reservation, but it was never clear if pickups got dibs the night before then reservations got the leftovers at 6am or it's split 50/50.
Only if you reserve it through this link https://reserve.cdn-apple.com/GB/en...199B8CD61B3E15F6&rv=0&path=&iPP=E&appleCare=Y
Going through the normal route (http://www.apple.com/uk/shop/buy-iphone/iphone-7#01,11) requires you to pay upfront before reservation is confirmed.
Okay. But is that link for the iPhone upgrade program or to reserve a phone and pay through the iPhone payments program?!
As far as I'm aware the iPhone payments allows you to pay for the phone over 20months but take out no AppleCare which makes it slightly cheaper a month.
Yes I believe if you reserve through the iPhone upgrade program link you can choose whatever type of payment method you wish once at store.
His first link is for reservations. When you get to the store to get it, you can either go for upgrade program (where you can upgrade in 11 months), iPhone payment plan (20 months, no Apple care) or just pay in full there and then.
Though if today was anything to go by, there was a second wave for some stores, at random times between 9.30 and 4pm.
Well managed to get a Black 7 plus 128Gb this afternoon from Newcastle Apple Store after missing trying to get stock at Metrocentre I had a pre order with apple for launch day for a gold 7+ but stupidly cancelled it when I pre ordered from EE with the promise that I would get one launch day as they had been promised loads of stock HA HA lesson learnt, good luck tomorrow for all those still trying I pretty much watched this thread on Macrumors and refreshed the store reservation page for a few hours lol
