iPhone UK - Sitting at home waiting for delivery

[martymcr]

Use the ident code screen to check, not the consignment number screen.

My status has changed to "HSD Out for Delivery awaiting IOD" any idea what that means?

 

[funkyshaker]

I just had to go to the loo....quickest ever. Didn't even have time to read anything 🙂

Yeah mine changed to that quite a while ago now.

 

[yogamonkey]

well everyone who has it on delivery at home can relax - there seems to be a tread saying o2's retail computer system has craashed 😀 poor git's🙄

A friend of mine has been in a queue outside o2 since 6.30am. He was number 10 in the queue. So far, as of 9:10am only 2 people have walked out of the shop with iPhones.

It may be sad to some people but to the likes of us lot its sheer joy. We have something we care for a lot heading our way and were excited by it. Other people are the same but with different objects. Yet they don't get classed as sad.

Ok weird rant over, eeeehhhhh I want my phone. Also the bastards have charged me too .

Absolutely! I used to be interested in girls.. but now. 😱 ALthough, if there was a girl who had 16gig storage and could play any song on demand I may have to change my mind.

Ouch, that's nasty.

O2 have just sent me my first bill... Cheeky bastards... Phone isnt here yet.

Same here! 😱

 

[yogamonkey]

Ouch, that's nasty.

Apparently they are now giving people their iPhones and not bothering with in-store activation!! Looks like the o2 staff have gone native.

 

[mrhands123]

Just seen a white Van outside.

got excited.

read the side of the van - 'Debbie and Baz's Wheelie bin cleaning'


*goes back to waiting*

lol very funny 😀

Well they are made with touch sensitivity.

How would that work 😕

Theyre not going to let that slide, if you get the more expensive contract for the 8gb they arent going to give the iphone for free and let you walk out are they!

Hehe yeah, no way I can imagine that happening.

 

[liketom]

right gotta go to work 🙁 leave the Van watching to my wife

why o why do the delivery vans not have gps trackers onboard that way we could all watch where they are 😀

 

[Petoz]

...Just a thought, but have you tried loading up Mac Rumors on your iPhone. If you do it, take some pics and upload them - they'd be cool pics to have on this site and I'm sure the Mods would agree!

i've put these pics up in the 3G Unbox and Setup sticky thread. 😀

O2 have just sent me my first bill... Cheeky bastards... Phone isnt here yet.

How much is your bill??

my plan is £45 and my bill is almost £47!!!

they are billing me the 10/07 🙁

not good start with o2

 

[martymcr]

DHL man (cute too!) just delivered mine - how excited am I!!!

Upgraders like us waiting at home will be self-activating, so maybe they just thought screw it and missed out the last part of the process. They are still making people go through the contract sign up of course, but after almost 90 mins there are hardly any successful activations at the Southend o2 shop and the queue is now massive.

Massive queue, for an iPhone, in Southend?? Crazy!

when you placed the order did you have to fill in all your contract details etc etc or something like that?

No, just entered account number if I remember rightly. My contract has now been updated in 02 to expire 2010 and I have been charged for the iPhone so I guess in their opinion it doesn't matter whether I activate it or not when it arrives!

Out for delivery 11/07/08 08:36 VAUXHALL SERVICE CENTRE

I hope mine is showing the same, on my way to work now but my other half has strict instructions to bring it to me at work once it arrives. hurry up vauxhall area drivers.

Same here, £35 a month plan and it's £36.14 or something, not toooooo fussed over a couple of quid but annoying never the less.

Eeew, that's just gross.

A UPS man, maybe, but DHL, in yellow shirts??
