iPhone Three Mobile Order ???

I tried phoning and it said that the phone lines were too busy to accept my calls!

I am really not sure about this whole saga, it could be that they just want to cover themselves but it may also mean that we have to wait for our iPhones slightly longer than those who ordered it from Apple themselves.

I am still going to hold hope for a delivery tomorrow. After all thats when i selected the delivery to take place.

Same here. Im off all day anyway. If not, Saturday will have to do. May have a moan at Three see if i can get something for free. Perhaps an accessory vouchers.

BTW, what contract did you lot all choose? i chose the 35 pound The One Plan, simply because of the unlimited data.
 
I also got the one plan for 35p/m and £189 upfront.
seems like a good deal and i could certainly use the unlimited data as O2 has sucked over the past few months.
 
Loads of people have received this email ... on Twitter there are thousands of people complaining about Saturday delivery.

Perhaps it is just a backup???
 
I think its just a backup, why would everyone get the same email?

So is no one getting the iPhone 4s from 3 on release day. Something doesn't sound right to me.

I think the problem is this. When we ordered the phone it requested which day we would like it to be delivered. Now im guessing everyone put Friday 14th. The thing is, if something happens, for example your local delivery depot is closed or it can't get to your location in time due to the geography of your area there will be people complaining about the delivery. Stating that it was GUARANTEED to be delivered on the 14th.

They have to back themselves up incase something does happen. (The examples i used were probably not the best but they are possible. :) )

I think we will still see deliveries tomorrow, well a least i hope we do.

----------

Just to note.

I also ordered the 32gb White iPhone 4s. On the £35 One Plan 24 month contract.
 
I'm expecting it tomorrow ... all these people can't have had their order delayed ... it seems as though we've all gone for the same contract/plan, it does seem the best around
 
Hope mine comes tomorrow cause that's what they said over ther phone the first time and then the second time they changed it
 
The Three twitter guys told me that all retention/upgrade pre orders were guaranteed delivery tomorrow. Guess they have prioritised existing customers over new customers.

Just had my text with a tracking number saying I can expect it tomorrow.

I am an existing customer and took out a new contract with them over the website, don't know if I'll get a txt in the morning or something so hope it comes tomorrow then
 
I also signed up for a new contract and i was told at the time it would be delivered via DPD! Amd i dont have a tracking number atm but they said its been reported that the tracking numbers can be sent out anywhere as late as 2:30am
 
Hopefully we will receive one by the morning,

See....while I can respect that (o2 are doing the same) they should say so when ordering, I ordered, placed for Friday delivery happily enough, arranged to go away Saturday early am...and got this email. Crap.

O2 at least advertised that they were going to retention first. Either case, Saturdays not long *if* it arrives Saturday. lets see what happens eh?
 
Nothing yet from me, im guessing some people will be receiving their 4s from 3. My post usually comes around 9-10. I will update everyone though whether mine arrives or not.

Thats awesome news, more hope for the rest of us.

Do you mind telling us whether you had an existing contract with 3 and also what model you ordered?
 
A friend got an email from three via their junk mail stating they failed security checks so they couldn't process order?

They didn't even call?

Now they won't be getting todayay take longer if no stock

Any advice
