Thats a pain, I wanted to transfer today and use in my old phone. Never mind as long as I get one! Thanks.

I'll admit I was wrong, but come on - the fact it was from a number which *seemed* to be a hoax and the fact there was only one account of it, it didn't appear to be a watertight story
Even so... The Facejacker comment was quality
and it was jokes at the time
As far as I'm aware, UK gets all products sent from a hub in Holland. Cork only holds a factory for custom built Mac Pros and home to Applecare. Paperwork is sent from there aswell.
Another hub is around Northampton which I recall seeing in on a previous order last year.
End of the day, we don't know where they are until it's shipped and we can track it
you don't need an adaptor to use it today. it comes inside a normal sized sim, which you snap it out of when you want to use the micro sim. obviously this is a one time deal, so you need an adaptor if you want to put it back in another phone. i've not got an adaptor and i'm using the new sim
hopefully thats clear!
I picked mine up the other day from the O2 store. I had to call around though to find out who had them in stock
PAYG Swap
Has anyone successfully managed to swap their PAYG sim over yet? Went through the process yesterday but old sim still working Someone on the o2 forum said that PAYG won't swap!

that isn't a problem. the micro-sim is actuall embedded into a full size sim. so you can go ahead and activate it and keep using it in your current phone. once you've got your ip4, you'll just need to pop it out of 'it's large sim frame' and then you're all set. this is what i am doing - my un-popped microsim is currently in my touch diamond.
Absolutely! I've read every single page and post of this thread and have been following it with (unhealthy) interest. I thought everyone was quite rude to that girl yesterday. As if it would be IMPOSSIBLE that O2 would call high value customers to offer them upgrades! They're openly reserving them specially for customers so why not? Think there was a little bit of iPhone envy going on yesterday and a few apologies wouldn't go amis.
Thats perfect thanks, I thought they snapped out and that was it, wasn't sure if it was the ones someone posted a pic of earlier in the thread that you can snap out as a normal sze sim, then snap out as a micro sim when you need it. Will wander up there at lunch!
My update
I received my Micro Sim this morning in the post from o2. I registered my interest on their website on the first day. I have gone through the online process to swap sims. Just waiting for the transfer to complete. Says it can take 24 hours. Will be glad to get it done before thursday (fingers crossed) - i imagine o2's system will most definately crash early doors.
I am putting my new Micro Sim (not broken out of Frame) into my LG cheap phone (as i recycled my 3GS). Hope this works ok.
I recieved an adapter (black frame) with my letter. This will be helpful if i dont want to take my iphone 4 on holiday or on a night out etc.

Agree 110%
I didn't comment on what she said but I didn't think it was out of the ordinary for someone to be offered it if they are a high value customer... especially seeing as O2 are taking the loyalty side of things with only offering iPhone 4 to existing customers.
As I say I didnt comment but I didn't know if she was right or wrong so kept out of it instead of jumping to (incorrect) conclusions.
any of you guys queue up for the 3GS launch?
if i turn up at an O2 shop in central london at 7.30, reckon i'll get lucky?
cant be bothered to queue from midnight or anything.

Yea all the European customers, its only US orders that have shipped so far. UK, French and German deliveries are coming from hubs in various European Warehouses so we shouldn't worry (or so we've been told)
This is one for newbies..
1. Has anyone's order status changed? No
2. What proof do I need to get a microsim from an o2 store? Preorder or Reservation print out
3. Is the iPhone 4 on contract unlocked? Unconfirmed
4. Is the iPhone 4 on Pay and Go unlocked? No
5. When will I get my iPhone? When it is delivered so stop whining!
6. Can you get the iPhone in white on launch day? Highly unlikely
Simples!

If you are an existing customer then I think you should be fine if not give the Apple store a bash too and see how you get on.
i got my micro sim yesterday through the post. I assume it's because I registered an interest on the o2 iphone 4 page when it first came up. If you did that you should receive one.
