Ordered SG 64GB on 5th April. Just been told by EE that it will be at least another week. Tempted to give up.
 
Ouch. Dont give up yet. CPW is also saying next week.
This will be my first ever iPhone. After years of owning large Android phones, I decided to move to a smaller phone. This is the deity's way of telling me to get an HTC 10. :)

Ok thanks.
What I like about in store purchase is the ability to get refunded directly in store (in case you lose at lottery)

Is it the same policy when you buy online and pickup in store?
Yes, if you need to return your iPhone you can take it to any Apple Store or Pickup Point and you will get refunded immediately, but it needs to be within 14 days of you receiving it.
 
Any more people got an SE from John Lewis that they have confirmed is truly unlocked?

When I asked a staff member recently they were fairly sure they lock to the first network used, even when I pressed them on the point saying people online had said different... Not that they had any stock anyway.
No problem with the Gold 64gb I collected Sunday. Tried o2, EE, and Voda. All good.
 
There might be some SG64 stock popping up in some Apple stores this morning..

EDIT - already showing some in Covent Garden.
 
Yes, SG64 in stock at Bullring Birmingham. Go get em!

Also in Leeds, Gateshead, Norwich, Bristol Cabot, Southampton, Plymouth, London Regent St and White City.

So why not order it online for pickup later on when you can get there?!
It's like reserving it, but you pay for it online.
[doublepost=1461144540][/doublepost]Now also in stock Edinburgh, Manchester Arndale, Cardiff, Kingston, Brighton.

Well EE are covering themselves in glory. On 5th April, "Oh sorry it's showing as a 14 day delivery time but more often than not it's a lot quicker than that" to 19th April "it's now 21 days from order date" to today "It's around 4 weeks"

Useless.

If you have the cash to buy upfront, then you could cancel EE, buy from Apple, and take out a SIM-only contract with EE or whoever. It'll get you the phone sooner, and also save you money over the long term.

Although I know that a "free" phone has a cost to it, this one meant no changes to my existing contract etc. I'm really tempted to just cancel it and forget about the phone.

Although obviously I know it's wrong, this is my first iphone and my perception of Apple is becoming tainted by association.

This is what I did, bought the phone outright and upgraded my EE sim only plan to include a better data allowance, got the sim in the post within 2 days, number transferred after a few hours, and Im all set up.

Love the SE so far, its a gorgeous looking phone.
 
Mine has just gone to preparing for despatch, anyone know how long it stays like this before they actually despatch it.
