I managed to get mine in for an iPhone 7 Plus 256gb in matt black. Estimated delivery 27th-29th of Sep. Not enough stock then Apple? why does that not surprise me. On the plus side my case will be here before launch day lol

I've not seen ANYONE who ordered the same as us with a 16th release day...
 
Sounds like a plan...did you use Quidco 7% back as well? it is tracking on my Quidco account but i know some get funny about cash back on phones etc

Sadly no i didnt do that. Though what makes it even better when ordering with Very is i have it on buy now pay next year with 0% interest.
 
I
Wanted to get the Jet Black 7 Plus in 128GB. When i finally got through to the Iphone Upgrade Program page, they were out of stock at every London store. Will it be impossible for me to get this phone on the program before 02/10 (when i go on holiday)?

Saw someone a few pages back say they refresh the stock count on the reservation page at 3am? Is this true?
I believe its midnight each night from 17th onwards.but try at 6am on 17th too.

Apple reserve page says 6am from next sat

I was just thinking that myself. Sounds like Apple didn't have any 256gb ones available to begin with I reckon. Maybe the were testing to see who actually bought the max out versions. Shame we don't get them on launch day. I'm worried envirofone's price might drop now in the next couple of weeks for my 6S.
 
Will iphone 6 and 6s glass screen protectors fit the iphone 7?

Nobody knows, but I got one just in case. On the hands on pictures the speaker cut-out does look slightly longer to me though, could be wrong.

I agree, mine said 6-8 business days off the bat, so makes it look like they had no inventory and will ship direct from China as they make them... Bloody annoying that!
 
7 Plus, Black, 256GB

Dispatches: 6-8 business days
Delivery: 27 Sep - 29

With my 6s it dispatched the day before release and delivered on release day. I imagine anyone with a 6-8 dispatch time will receive their iPhones sooner than the quoted delivery window.

Envirophone lock your price for 14 days, it WILL drop quickly once the iphone 7 becomes available
 
Not quite sure why everyone seems to be ordering the piano black in the plus model. I'm have barely seen anyone mention they are purchasing a gold or silver model.
 
Hey guys, not a regular around here - normaly just jump in for the preorder's, last one was AW so its been a while!

Call it unlucky but I happened to be on a delayed flight when preorders opened... Just my luck :( and now I'm unsure what to do?

I'm buying myself out of my current contract with O2 for £400, and my phone has been sold for £400 (perfect so far!), however I don't know where to get my phone from? O2 are out of the question as their deals are simply awful! So, My options are...

1) Apple Upgrade Program, my preferred option, however the 7+ Black 32GB isn't available for a reservation, so do i forget this option and move on, or do I wait till 6am 17 Sept? (What are the chances of me getting one by doing this?)

2) BT Mobile, I have their broadband so get a £5 discount per month and they're deals are actually very, very good, with shipment in 1-2 weeks still? However, I'm tied into a 24 month contract, grrr!

3) Three, who again have good deals and good shipment times!

So what shall I do? Hang on in there for the Upgrade program, or call it a day and preorder one with a new carrier? Sorry for a huge post, I just know how friendly and helpful everyone is in these forums! I look forward to the remainder of the preorder limbo! :D
 
:confused:

How long did it take for your email confirmation to come through? Still waiting on mine 50 mins later :confused:

I called them up in the end and they did a security check against me, as soon as they were happy who I was, they processed my order and a "Thank you for your order" email came through with a delivery date of "by 01/10/2016". But when checking the website and "track parcel" it states

Delivery by Saturday 17 September, 2016

Yes I was wondering that too!

I think you might be referring to me. I honestly do not think that the sales for this iPhone will be anywhere near the sales of the last two. Just my opinion. I assumed that Apple would have manufactured enough of the new iPhone to have stock to deliver on release day. Maybe my expectations were too high again.

Sorry for being a buzzkill don't mean to bring a downer to this forum. I'm just disappointed with Apple.

My Apple account got hacked and I ended up losing that account (as it was a me.com account I lost my emails too) and all my purchases. I had to go through the process of setting up a new email address changing all my accounts and having too get the activation lock taking off my Macbooks, iPhone and iPad Pro. Apple refused to take the activation lock off my iPad Pro (12.9inch) which as you know is like £800. The result of this is that the device is stuck on the activation lock screen. I also lost my £115 itunes credit. The whole process had taken months and is still not fully resolved. This is the main reason i'm so annoyed with Apple. I lost close to a months wages on a purchase I had just made.

But once again apologies for bringing a downer to this forum. Please enjoy.
 
I'm guessing that all 6 / 6S screen protectors will fit the iPhone 7 as well as both have the same screen size.

Depends if the camera and sensor are in the exact same place and if the speaker is not longer... Also depends what type of protector you get.

How about a pre-order directlly from Apple and then a SIM only deal from your preferred network? Thats exactly what I did!
;)

Three doing £51 a month for unlimited everything plus 30GB data on jet black on the plus seems good
