iPhone 7/7+ - UK Orders & Dispatches Thread

.
[doublepost=1475264624][/doublepost]So I managed to reserve a 7+ 128 rose gold (after two weeks getting up at 6am!) around 5:50 pm in Manchester and when I went to collect it (an hour after, when my slot was) the phone was not there. They don't know what happened but they had none in stock. I am proper annoyed! I've been told they will open an investigation to see what happened and will come back to me asap :(

They really are starting to take the piss now.

Just contacted there tracking department who are now telling me my phone HASN'T been dispatched and has been pushed back to the 21st of October!

So I ask if I can upgrade my order to the 256GB version which is currently showing as "in stock" on the CPW website, so I get transferred to sales who tell me ALL iPhone 7 Pluses are out of stock (did mention the point that I have seen people order today and get delivery dates for tomorrow) and that there website shows that they are in stock and with next day delivery if I order before 8pm.

After he tells me this, he then contradicts the person I spoke to 5mins before him and tells me, my phone will be with me on or before the 7th of October.

So to recap. Today Carphone Warehouse has told me.

1. There is a worldwide shortage on iPhone 7 Pluses and they have no confirmed delivery date from supplier.
2. My Phone has been dispatched
3. My Phone has been delayed until up to the 21st of October.
4. And finally, my Phone will be with me on or before next Friday.


Starting to wish I went SIM free now. If its not here next Friday I'm done lol.

Maybe mine was so easy because it was Sim free? Would of thought it wouldn't of mattered if it was in stock.

Will have to pick my phone up on my lunch break

I think something similar happened with someone else and they offered a free case.

Its annoying having your hopes up after searching so long and then being dissappointed.
 
Notice no one talking About jet black scratches anymore. As I've see more of it - there's no doubt it is the flagship marquee iPhone 7! Just stunning

Got my 7+ MB a few hours a go. I just wanted to say thank you to everyone who answered questions and helped me out in these threads.

The phone itself is crazy quick. It seems a lot faster to me than even a 6S.

I hope you all get your phones ASAP: it's definitely worth the wait!

Edit: A tip for those still waiting, who have DHL delivering your phone.

Use this number to call customer services on the day your phone is out for delivery...

0844 248 0844

Enter the waybill number, and then wait until the automated service tells you the whereabouts of your parcel. Say "advisor" after it's finished, and it will connect you to a real person. Ask for a more specific timeframe on your delivery, and the CS agent will phone the driver, and ask how long he/she will be until it gets to you!

My order date on Apple's website has now changed, it said the 7th October, it's now saying the 3rd, which is Monday if the tracking on there is correct :)

Mine says:
  • ZhengZhou, CN
  • 09/30/2016 2:25 P.M.
  • Sender tendered the shipment to UPS after the latest pickup time for the requested service. A day delay is likely.

[doublepost=1475303632][/doublepost]Up at 6am again, still not a 7+ to be had in the Apple Stores UK.
 
Wow, my phone made it to Castle Donnington at 04:25 and my delivery date is now showing as 'unavailable'. Looking like Monday now :)

Keep checking now and then through the day. On Tuesday afternoon a silver 256GB appeared at the Southampton store so we got my partner's phone sorted....but I've claimed it until my JB turns up. :D
 
If on the off chance of a 7+ appearing at say a London store. Could I buy it and get them to transfer to my local Apple Store?
