Jet Black 7 Plus delivery day (UK ONLY!)

iPhone 7 Plus 256GB Jet Black ordered through O2... I get it on October 21st. Amazing, really... they said they'd never had an order day like it.

I don't think they'll be any changes for us late receivers from apple site... or am I speaking too early?
 
Am I the only one who have troubles ordering? The HTTP 503 was cached on their end or somewhere in the middle.
 
Just to note guys if anyone's still lurking here, the US guys are getting shipped now, so theres still hope...

My Apple Watch shipment email was at 8:30PM the night before delivery
 
Well, the Solutions Inc pre -order process has turned out to be a farce.

Received 3 e-mails from them in 4 minutes today.

  1. "Your order is now out of stock". Obviously as it was never in stock!
  2. "This item is in high demand and is currently out of stock please check our website or in store for more details." Why, I have a pre-order?
  3. "Your pre-order has been cancelled." What's the point in taking pre-orders then?
To add insult to injury you can still pre-order on their site. Bunch of jokers!!

E-mailed them to ask why they have cancelled it. Not optimistic about a positive response though!

Doesn't look like it is worth queuing at a store tomorrow so ruled out that option.

Just noticed John Lewis have updated with "Available to order from 8AM 16th September" so will give that a go.

Only option after that is to wait it out I guess or hope it get lucky on an Apple store reservation if they make any stock available after launch!

Good luck man, I hope you get something good out of them, I didn't know JL has a stock for the JB though?

Thanks. I am not convinced they will but it was showing out of stock earlier and now has the "available to order from...." message so I am keeping fingers crossed.

So no luck with JL online this morning. Managed to add a 128GB JB Plus to my bag, got all the way to confirm the order then when out of stock. :mad:

Drove to my local branch for 09:00 (Chichester) No stock and don't know when they will get any.

Got a response back from Solutions Inc to apologise for cancelling my pre-order. It was a mistake. They have added it to the back order list but do not expect to see any movement on stock for about 2 weeks.

First time in 6 iterations that I have not had my new toy on launch day.
 
I was first in my local Three store last Friday and ordered the 256GB Jet Black on an upgrade. They called me yesterday to say that they were looking at 4th November!

Man I am sorry to hear you couldn't find any stock left.
As for Solutions Inc, you should send a complain letter for the mess up they did, it is unacceptable for cancelling your order for no reasons.
