I have successfully gotten my iPhone on the IUP, so until next year.

It has been privilege playing with you this week

I think Manchester Arndale had some 128GB JB+ that went instantly.

For in-store pickup, not upgrade programme.
 
Right just been into mcr arndale and have left with a 128gb black plus

I paid £819 last night, they immediately refunded and put me on "iUP" as they call the upgrade programme

Not only was this done easily I got the impression it was a regular thing.

Loads of stock came onto Apple.com for pickup last night (and the night before) at 10.

If you can front the cost this is defo the easier way than getting a reservation.

I asked the helpful Apple employee why mcr had seemingly no reservations and she said stock was simply being bought the minute it went live. Only reservations not picked up after 3 hours go back into the reservations system during the day.

Good luck everyone.

Did they refund you on your card
 
Can someone tell me if this script / website can look up the Apple Watch 2? Anyway to do this?

Something similar could be done, although I havent been able to find a json file that provides stock of every store in UK, but you could do something with the following:
http://www.apple.com/uk/shop/retail/pickup-message?parts.0=MP072B/A&location=RG4+8PQ

Thats for a space gray black nylon one showing store availability around reading. Im guessing from that returned result your looking at the pickupDisplay variable != unavailable.
"pickupDisplay": "unavailable"
 
What can we expect around 1120? I think it was roughly that time yesterday that plus stock started drip feeding in again.
