If you were paying in full- I don't think it's an issue of credit rating etc. I'm never heard of an item being dispatched- -and then being recalled while it is with the couriers. ...

No, nor have I.

The only thing I will say re: credit cards. So long as it's between £100 and £30,000 you can use Section 75 as a form of buyer protection.

Granted it needs to be an individual item totalling an amount between those two limits rather than £20 x £5 as an example.
 
Thanks, JL is all sold out but note that they have a 2 year warranty which is a good deal. I am monitoring their site frequently, hopefully something pops out soon.



Thanks, I hope so too. I promised to sell my S7 Edge to another lad next week as I was expecting my iPhone today..oh well..



Will do.



Thanks, I never use credit cards and prefer to pay cash. I only have a corporate card which I pay off every week. Looks like I now have to apply for one just to improve my credit score. I also tried purchasing a B&W headphone, same issue. Funny how they take the money from my account and then decide they dont want to pass me the product and then take 1-2 weeks to return my money.



I tried, they refused. Weird isn't?



Haha, hope you get yours soon.



I now think CPW is a complete joke. I mean, they take money from me, send the phone close to my doorstep then take it back and hold my money for a week or two...I am paying full price, not even on contract.



Paying in full, not even on contract. Don't even want to deal with their CS, joke of a company.
That's ridiculous. Your credit doesn't matter if you're paying in full upfront. Surely they have made a mistake.
 
It was on the plane!! It's about 10 mins up the road from me so I'm feeling hopeful for a delivery today! :p

I'm sure if you're only 10 mins away yours will be delivered today. I'm a 90 minute drive away so it may happen. I got my arrival scan at 2:26am but no departure scan yet

Anyone else got a departure scan yet?

Enjoy your incoming phones all. Have to say I'm enjoy the move to the plus size. Not been able to get use to it in the last two incarnations but going well. Picking up the regular size 6s feels small now

You should try handling an iPhone 4 (or 3) after getting used to the Plus, it's weeeeeiiiiirrrrd. Especially if like me you have, let's say less than dainty, hands :D

Just noticed yesterday's Amsterdam flight has been amended:-
'Recovered ' Amsterdam Fri, Oct 07, 2016 08:45

That means it's been put to one side for holding. mmmmm........
 
I'm coming from a 4s so the plus is going to take some getting used to

Oh my god :eek: It will be like going from a laptop screen to an IMAX.

You'll love it, don't give up when it feels odd and cumbersome to begin with (well it does for some people, my hands are mahoosive so it felt good to me) after a couple of days it feels like a normal size and all of that extra screen real estate makes literally everything better. Honestly when I pick up my iPhone 4 now, I struggle to use it, how I ever managed o don't know :D
 
Just tried to reserve a JB plus 128GB in Newcastle. Got right to the end thinking it had worked but it said it wasn't available... not sure if it was a glitch or if they actually had one...
 
and now CPW says that indeed the phone will not arrive...those ordered with CPW, based on my conversation with their CS seems that they have jumbled up a lot of orders too. their delivery dates are off apparently.
 
The reservation system certainly tests your typing skills. Think I nearly broke the keyboard because I punched my password in that hard and fast! Haha

Yes it will be a big change but worth it. I couldn't get use to it for the 6+ and 6s+ but this year it's going well.

My UPS tracking says "Scheduled Delivery Updated To: Friday, 07/10/2016" - "Last Location:Nottingham, United Kingdom, Friday, 07/10/2016".

So I'm hoping it gets delivered today, but after UPS this week saying that it would be delivered on wednesday but was actually in Korea, I dont want to get my hopes up!
