Am I missing something? The pushbullet notification tells me there is stock at the bentall centre, but when I hit pickup on the order in my bag it says "unavailable".

Am I doing something wrong?
 
Did someone reply to you? I kinda blacked out from the site as I got my hands on the phone :p

nobody did. However I found http://www.istocknow.com and since then managed to reserve and pickup a 7+ in Liverpool!

Only three stores in the country now showing stock of the Iphone 7 only.

I think theres still stock left in the stores but reservation limit has been reached.

So they dont show up anymore on resevation. But if you go on Apple store app you can pay and pickup in store if they have stock.
 
DHL Express stuck on shipment notification received in Origin Eindhoven!! I believe shipped from China yesterday and awaiting to be received in Eindhoven

Cheers. I guess it's only showing stuff that is going to be available for reservation for the upgrade programme? (although that's irrelevant as you can pay outright when you turn up)
 
I use iCloud for photos (thousands of them). Took just 6 mins to transfer my iCloud back up to my new iPhone 7+ all as it was before. All my pics visible on photos from the off.
Hope that's the case for me lol

Adding fresh new mp3s of a Windows pc in iTunes can be a right pain :p
 
So testing pushbullet and it's not displaying notifications on my phone. It only seems to work if I go into the app.

I've deleted and reinstalled the app but that didn't help. Any other ideas?
 
Just a heads up to everyone - Game are giving great trade in deals for the iPhone 6 and 6s. I got £350 cash for my iPhone 6 plus 64GB which is much better than CEX or any of the online quotes such as music magpie. And you get Loyalty points too, I got another £3 worth of loyalty points

Happened to me. Try signing off and back in. It was a combination of this all that finally got it working for me

so I was monitoring the iStockNow and it showed stock in Liverpool One. A minute later and 30 refreshes of the reservations page - I was able to reserve a black iPhone 7 Plus 128GB. 45 minutes later I drove to the store, got my phone, cancelled the order due for October.

So... best advise - don't bother with the 6am crap as everyone will be on it at that point - your chances are higher during the day and monitoring http://www.istocknow.com

Good luck lovely people.

p.s. I went from a 6 Plus and boy the 7 Plus is fast like a maniac! And... I have the hiss
I am only see alterts for Iphone6 and 6s on that one for the UK. What am I doing wrong?

I thought Game were asking for the box too? I'm not sure. I think at this point I'm gonna pop into CPW, probably on Sunday, but I'm not sure. iPhone 6 Plus 16GB.

Did you do this instore with Game? Did you need all the accessories and the box?
 
Mine arrived today, just restoring from iCloud now. So 8:04 email / original 26/9 - 3/10 / actual 21/9 straight from China. Not bad. See you all on the next thread... iPads? MacBook Pros? iPhone 8? We'll see...
 
My local Apple Store aren't picking up and Apple Support can't even get through to them, though she said I have 3 hours from the time of the reservation in which to pick up before they release the phone. I'm just hoping she's right because my reservation is for 6PM and I can't get there until closer to 7PM, if not just after.

Does anyone have any experience of turning up to a reservation late?

That's odd - I was on Live Chat with apple support, as I couldn't make my reservation time either. She said if you do not turn up at the allocated time, your reservation will be cancelled.

If I was you, I would take her word for it and try to pick it up.
 
anyone know if CEX (We Buy) are taking in iPhone 7's? Nothing on their website at all! very strange as they normally have loads upon release

She spoke to her line manager about it and they said it was company policy for reservations to be held for 3 hours after the set time. I'll be so angry if that's not the case. I'll keep trying to get through to the store to let them know I'm going to be late but she said they were "so busy" they weren't even picking up important calls from head office.

45 minutes after your slot? You will be fine!

Ok, Please keep us updated if you manage to get the reservation!
 
As for Pushbullet notifications not arriving not too sure, works fine here, although granted i was using android to receive my notification. Just tested on my iphone though and after logging in with google, i went to https://www.pushbullet.com/#devices and could not see the iphone listed in devices (wasnt receiving test messages like some of you) - so on pushbullet app, went to settings and then signed out and signed back in. Refreshed the device page and could now see the iphone. After this i then went to https://www.pushbullet.com/#people and chose the iPhone and put a test message which was received instantly. Hopefully following these steps can sort it out for some of you.


As for the unreliable push notifications saying stock available, am fairly certain its because of the a mistake with the code, its alerting whenever it sees a models status as not equal to NONE. NONE seems to indicate there is no stock, UNLOCKED seems to indicate ??? - these models dont show up on the reserve and collect and i suspect they are the ones causing you to be notified of stock that isnt there. ALL seems to indicate that the model is available to purchased via all available methods (pay upfront and collect, reserve and collect, whatever else...).

What you need todo is change the following in the code, search for:

!= 'NONE'

replace it with

== 'ALL'

or just use: http://pastebin.com/raw/TAi79uJX

updating the configuration to what you want.

Picked up a 256GB Matte Black iPhone 7 Plus today. Decided on the upgrade programme. £49 a month over 20 months with comes to £980. This includes Apple Care Plus. Does this mean that the Apple Care Plus is only £61? Seems like a good deal. After 11 months you are allowed to upgrade your phone, either giving it back to Apple and carrying on with your next phone or playing the balance to Apple and then keeping it or selling it yourself.
