weird.....i tried to order one with a black bumper on the 15th (first pre order day) and it said had to ship together so will be estimated 28th june.....so i went out of that, did it all again with just the iphone on its own and that made it 24th again.

Me too. I first ordered the iPhone with the bumper and the delivery date was for june 25-28. So i cancelled the bumper but the delivery stayed 25-28 (which was really annoying). I called apple many times and they confirmed i will still recieve the iPhone on the 24th even if the order status says 25-28. Anyway m surprised that they managed to get the bumper to deliver on the 24th also!!!
 
Trying to find store hours for FINCHLEY o2 store

Wanting to go tomorrow Monday to try to get Micro sim from o2 shop ( showing apple reservation note as suggested)
I cannot find out when store opens. Any ideas.???
Any kind of google just either gives directions which I don't need or list of 24th openings....
Frustrating!
 
Without a screenshot from 'markab' I think we can only presume that shipping status hasn't changed as of yet. Would appreciate if someone could post if they notice a change - can hardly contain excitement!!

He explained what he meant by status. PUN was intended. Divorced.

mine did say that but the apple woman sent it to the warehouse who confirmed that the bumper wouldn't delay the order and they would ship together. if they couldn't, the iphone would ship separately for delivery on the 24th. Now online, it says they will both deliver on the 24th june
 
i would move to Vodafone now. best coverage. o2 have taken away so many benefits over the past year that they dont really stand out anymore like they used to

That's definitely the way I'm leaning ..... I just haven't been able to get simple answers from O2, regarding the data cap, and when I get sign up for a simplicity contract for the iPhone 4.

Strange because i know about many people who were delayed because of the black bumper. Anyway you are lucky :)

i wouldn't worry. now they have announced the new tariffs they will all change soon and even if you get one before the 24th it will change in Oct. Don't risk it and move to Vodafone. o2 used to be good, mms included in your bundle, good line rental discounts and unlimited data. now all thats gone, by bother with them? i was staying because they were mean't to be merging mast sites with vodafone which would help, but no sign of that near me at all. no 3G signal where i am
 
I have a non-iPhone contract on o2 as my distain for iPhone contracts has always lead me to purchase PAYG iPhone and just put my sim in it. I will be doing the same this time round, purchasing from the Apple Store outright and wanting to retain my current o2 contract. My question is what the hell do I do about a micro SIM?!

Thanks

take your apple order confirmation to an o2 store this week and they will give you a micro sim FOC
 
did you order the black one? the 25th-28th related to the royal mail posting the bumper. the iPhone 4 will ship by courier regardless. they confirmed it wouldn't delay the order

You may be right but the confirmation email says: "Your order will not ship until all items are available. Once your order has dispatched, you will receive a Dispatch Notification email, which will provide you with detailed delivery information."
So that delays the delivery of the iPhone to june 25-28. And as i said before i cancelled the bumper and the delivery date for the iPhone is still june 25-28 and i cant understand why it didnt update to june 24. My order was made at 9:30 (8:30 gmt)!!!
 
I don't think that's ABSOLUTELY correct. A reservation is, all things being equal, a physical iPhone unit. HOWEVER, this comes with the caveat that there may be some unfortunate errors (e.g. faulty units, mistaken sales of reserved units etc) which means that someone with a reserved phone who comes very late in the day may not get one. But this should be fairly limited.

That may have been what you were trying to say, but perhaps needed a little bit more clarification. But yes, a pre-order is definitely a guaranteed unit (although may turn up a little later than the 24th).

Well its as good as what I put to be honest.

I don't see why everyone has to correct everybody on here. Its basically a place in the line. Its not a guarantee - Something you said yourself ;)

I probably should have said that I have neither reserved or ordered a phone and am going down to the LiverpoolONE to queue in the wee hours on Thursday in the hopes if getting one. If I do manage it, then what do I do?
 
still no update.......i really hope it changes tomorrow

go to the o2 store after you have picked the iPhone up, they will give you one no problem :)
