If I buy from CPW I understand it locks to the first sim so in my case it would be THREE. Can the phone be used abroad?
 
Ok, after all that my 7plus 128GB Matte black is coming tomorrow!! After nothing after arriving in Netherlands yesterday it's now jumped to get to me by end of business tomorrow!
Funnily Apple now says it's due to be delivered YESTERDAY! lol
Ooooo maybe, just maybe, by this time tomorrow ........

:D
 
Getting bored waiting on a JB so got a Spigen JB case from Amazon for my MB 7+. Looks fab but total fingerprint magnet lol!


Given that I only have a week left to return my MB 7+ I think this will be my version of The JB. Unless EE surprise me :rolleyes:

Yup, you can do the usual awesome three stuff abroad with it. I mean I don't know 100% but I can't think of any reason why not?

(Someone step in and yell if I'm wrong!)

Same phone Loopy? This is the post I wanted to see! When did the order change to Preparing to Ship for you?
I think it did preparing to ship last Monday then had email from Apple timed 1pm Tuesday (27th) saying it was dispatched. Had a couple of days of nothing. Phoned Apple this morning and all she could tell me was it would be with me on or before the 5th October.

Thanks, hopefully not too long then.
 
Quick question...............for most people on here how long did you stay on preparing to dispatch..............I have been on that since Tuesday and still am 56 hours later
 
My iphone 7+ JB dispatched on September 29th. I am given a DHL tracking number, but I'm unable to track it online.
Does anyone have the same issue?
Also, although it says Sept 29, it was dispatched on the 28th at night (UK time). So I don't know it has to do if the system needing a day to process the order...

This time it was less than 24hours but have admit that with other appley things in the past I've had it three days for sure maybe even more.
Hope,it changes soon for you!
 
Looking at the US thread some of the November guys are getting dates such as 11 November.

Have anyones UK November dates changed or does it still say November?

All times are local to where the place is .. I think I checked and Shanghai is 7 hours ahead of us so it was 29th their time.
The DHL tracking thing is really weird. The tracking Apple have down is for air freight tracking with DHL so it will only track while it's on that part of the journey. (Google the air freight option, someone put the link up but I can't find it sorry)

I ordered my Jet Black 128GB Plus from Apple on the 12th of September, says dispatch November.

Today I checked Carphone Warehouse, they can deliver one on or before October 21st. So I've ordered with them, whichever starts dispatching first is what I'll go with. I asked Carphone Warehouse if that date was firm or if it could possibly slip to November, they said 100% it is a firm date and the phone will not slip to November.

So if you want one a bit quicker than November try there I guess. They have them unlocked which is what I've purchased.
 
Phone has now left Amsterdam and on its way to Uk. It should be delivered tomorrow according to my Apple account page but can't track it using my reference number starting 879 so just hope it turns up

Hi Helen, how did you find this out, none of my tracking numbers seem to be working?
 
This time it was less than 24hours but have admit that with other appley things in the past I've had it three days for sure maybe even more.

Thanks very much for your response. Fingers crossed anyway. How are you enjoying your new phone
 
Mine is showing as an error. I enter the 87 number into 'shippers reference' and then click go. I dont change anything else. Is that right?

Same thing here, I have no tracking information showing on the Apple order page yet either, my guess is that is down to the watch, that is also part of the order, coming from a different place.
