Sorry friend, I just meant you upgrade every year like I do, not necessarily on the Apple programme :)

What have you gone for this time? I had an 11 Pro 64GB in Silver last time, gone for 12 Pro 128GB in blue this time. I've only ever had white or black going back to the 3G!
Ah I see. I had the exact same. Always had black from my first iPhone 4 up through to the X (went with 256gb for some reason, complete overkill) when I went with Silver, loved the white back and chrome band around the phone so stuck with that for the 11 Pro 64gb.

Now moved back onto Graphite for the 12 Pro 128gb, mainly playing safe due to there being no hands on videos to be able to see what the colours are like in real life. From the photos this years silver doesn't look as nice as previous years.

I've ordered the plum silicone case ether way so!

May as well get a 5G SIM from EE, upgrade from 4G on EE, ideally didn’t want a 24 month but is that all what seem to be getting?

In my upgrade options online is all seems to be offered. Always had decent signal, but rather have 12 month in case.

Also the SIM with a smart benefit could be good value to add Apple music, only going to cost extra £4 for it, worth it?

What are people getting? Send can get 200Gb with Apple Music 5G for £23/month - good?

What are others getting please

I did mine on chat today -

5g,
unlimited data, mins, and text,
1 swappable benefit
and pair of Beats X headphones
24 months at £22.40 a month
 
Got into the store via the app at 13:04, and my order for the 12 Pro 128GB Pacific Blue was done as the clock struck 13:05.

It was 23rd delivery throughout order process, then the confirmation email was 26th - 28th, and now it’s gone to ’Arrives 28th Oct’.

Still hoping it moves ahead of that date. Apple often turn deliveries around quicker than expected 🤞🏻
 
I put my MM order through on Tue 13th. I'll send it next Friday 23rd. Hopefully even if they use the 14 day deadline I'll still just make it...
 
Last year I got an iPhone 11 Pro with EE, so I still have a year left of my contract. I want to go back to sim only eventually so purchased the iPhone 12 Pro from Apple.

My EE plan is 4G only, so thought I'd call them and see what the damage would be to upgrade to 5G... it was £8 extra per month, however I've gone from 100GB data to unlimited 5G data and it now includes an extra perk (I chose Apple Music), so I'm now £2 better off each month, with unlimited data and 5G.

My plan end date stayed the same (Sep 2021) which is when I'll then switch to sim-only. Can't stand these huge monthly payments.

How did they let you do that whilst still a year left. That’s unusual.
 
I sent my phone off to Music Magpie on Wednesday at 1pm from the postoffice using their QR code, and has now been marked as delivered as of 3:52pm today on the Royal Mail tracking website for those who are wondering how long it takes to get to them.

However the MM website still says awaiting delivery, I think this is as its been delivered after 2pm to them so im guessing they won't scan its arrival or whatever it is they do now until Monday, and then hopefully funds go into my bank Tuesday (until they email me saying there's a none existent scratch inside the phone underneath the battery...)

had an email this week from them stating 21 days + £20 extra. That's why I said that it would worth checking through chat with them (and save the relevant chat)
That would be very lucky. I think I did my order last Monday and although I got the extra £20 I definitely only got 14 days. Gonna have to post on Friday and hope for the best.

Didn’t realise it wasn’t always 21 days! I think definitely worth contacting them @Hustle

I’m doing the same thing but with a different company... got 14 days from the 14th I’ve arranged pick up for the Saturday 24th which is well within time so hopefully all goes smoothly
 
Looks like orders are now showing back as normal on the apple store online and on the app. All my past and current purchases are showing too and the phone is now showing as Arriving & date rather than 'arriving' and the site being broken.
Looks like the Barclays Finance 'on hold' was indeed nothing to worry about.

I had exact same situation, same time and everything. Gutted I haven't opted for pick up as my local Apple Store is about half hour walk away, but it was genuinely saying 23rd until everything was confirmed. But hey let's be hopeful our dates get pushed forward 🤞

That time of year again!

Ordered at 3.20pm, EE upgrade over the phone. Guy stated delivered on release day. Still haven’t received email notification. Anyone else in the same boat?

i’ve super excited - going down from 6.5 iPhone XS Max to iPhone 12 Pro.
 
What's your current order status on Argos? Mine is sitting at 'Sit tight - we're processing your order for delivery on Friday 23rd October'
Same.
I don’t think that changes until either the day before or 2 days before when they dispatch the order.
I pre-ordered FIFA and it was the same.
 
Slightly annoyed that the MagSafe leather wallet is delayed until December!! hoping for some local store stock next Friday.
 
Out of curiosity, has anyone that was not quoted with launch day received any order updates such as preparing or shipment?
Mine has changed to Arrives 2nd Nov. Was quoted a 23rd October throughout checkout which changed to 26-28 October when complete. Email says 28 but it’s changed to 2 Nov on the app. Ah well. Really hope it moves forward but who knows. Money hasn’t been taken either.
