I didn't get an email, I just noticed it on the Apple Store about 6am. I checked yesterday and it was still processing
Got a tip for us?

That kind of nonsense is why I left them years ago, well EE/Orange but they're BT now. They didn't know their donkey from their elbow.
I got much, much better service from and here's a sentence I never thought I'd say, Three, who were great. I'd still be with them if they hadn't dropped support for 2G (which might sound archaic but out in the wilds of Scotland that's all you get quite a bit and I like to know I can make an emergency call if I have to.)
Ok just spoke to Apple - the Shipment in Amsterdam with the 6 digit tracking code we used with DHL freight is not the FINAL TRACKING number for UK despatch - what happens from there is the phones are sent to the UK and from there Apple will appoint a final courier for delivery which could be DHL, UPS or UK Mail judging from past experience. The new tracking number will be updated on the order status of the Apple online store page-
Cheers
PS i ordered an additional jet black 7 PLUS - that one still has processing for 18th October - has anyone who received this time frame been given a faster delivery ? Im just curious !
No update on delivery - i will report back to the forum if i see anything new on my order status
Thank you so much ! But considering how much we paid for devices the inconsistency on when we should expect these is beyond a joke ! I'm not very happy ! I'd rather still be processing than knowing my phones been dispatched and not knowing when I'm getting it
I'm surprised that they can't give a better estimate than the 4th. Surely they have booked flights and stuff for the phones already?
It's they won't ! Because anything can happen like delays and stuff so if they was to say we would have them today and this happened we would be screaming at Apple ! But since they said the 4th they are covered. A lot of companies do it and 9 times out of 10 you get them before
My final courier is 100% DHL because I mananaged to get my personal tracking number by using the method discussed earlier and its destination is my city
Not likely to be today then.
I suspect we may not see any movement on the interim shipment to the UK anyway as the original has completed its itinerary and the new tracking number may not get into the system. I wouldn't be surprised if they pop up in the UK with the final tracking number and out for delivery at the same time, probably tomorrow or the day after.
Pay cash in the store. I did this on Saturday.
Also, I arrived a few hours early and they were going to make me wait till my appointment. I mentioned I'd be paying in full and they saw me straight away!
Thanks for that
I've reserved mine and there are still more of 7 Plus Black 256GB available in Belfast
It's referring to your order confirmation email from Apple after placing the order... We're monitoring which orders are being dispatched based on their order time. My order confirmation was 08:11 for example and I'm still in 'Processing' without any payment taken.
Your conformation email was likely earlier than 08:11 since yours has already moved forward in the process.
Just nice to see how close we are to having our orders dispatch and arrive.
Claerly there may be some benefit to sitting outside of the EU... article 50 triggered and exit complete before the anniversary edition anyone?
Question: Just bought a Rose Plus for pickup, but realised I have no photo ID (my driving licence is back with the DVLA to get my address updated) - am I stuffed? Can I show my bank cards? Buy something in store with ApplePay to prove my TouchID is registered to me or something? Or can I cancel the order in store and buy the then unreserved unit from scratch?
If you're buying it outright on pickup I seem to recall they simply don't care other than to prove it's your reservation (I would expect the cc would do that trick)... if it's iup etc.. different issue!
Just reread ur post.. might need a phone call .. if you've already bought and are collecting.. no correlation between th cc and Apple Pay prob
Cheers @pauliet - it's outright pickup... So I hope that's the case!
