Other UK iPhone 12/12 Pro/12 Pro Max (2020) Orders and Dispatch Thread

The Pro 128GB in Silver. Seems to be one hard phone to get hold of!

Definitely worth checking John Lewis Friday morning, they are usually pretty reliable https://www.johnlewis.com/apple-iphone-12-pro-ios-6-1-inch-5g-sim-free-128gb/silver/p5178100

I'm waiting for the phone to show up in my devices under my Apple ID...then I know it's happening 🙂

 

[wizzywig27]

AO.com just called to say I won't receive the phone on Friday as originally planned, it's not going to be until sometime next week now. Apparently Apple have advised there are delays in the supply line so they don't have the stock to send out. Gutted.

Shock horror!

Really is rubbish mate but as soon as someone mentioned AO on here, I thought yo myself ey up, this is gonna end in tears!

Online I go to add ons and benefits and see this:

Didn't realise iPhones needed MOTs!!!!
😆

there use to be the old support profile site which you'd see it and get your serial number... then there was another site where you could bang it in and get for like build week out... think that's changed now

Perks or Student Discount worked on my older 20GB then 60GB plans but failed online trying to upgrade to the 5G 100GB plan

EE perk code doesnt work online on safari. Try different browser.

😆

At least it's free 😉

I have been trying to get an EE discount code from my employer's perks but it doesn't seem to have one. Anyone that has a spare one, I would appreciate if you could send me one. Thanks 😀

 

[ct2k7]

Could anyone PM me with a code for EE? I just took out the £41 plan (for £5) so may not be able to add it, but I'd be grateful. If it doesn't work I can 'give back' the code for others

Cheers

Did you get one yet? I have an hour to go before I can generate another one

 

[kinster]

...I'm not seeing any 'Perks' options in my EE iOS app and I'm on a sim only plan??
😕

EDIT - seems that my plan is not a 'Smart Plan' which does offer benefits..??!

There aren't any specific "Perks" options. I think you can apply the code to some of the SIMO plans?

I got this the other day and applied to code

Not yet - no rush if you can't today as I only took out the plan on Tuesday so I am sure Chat can add over the next day or so 👍

 

[croky26]

Has anyone received any update from Currys whatsoever? I mean I ordered mine within minutes and I was told on the live chat just now that there is limited stock available and as a result of this they are unable to provide a time frame as to when my iPhone will be delivered. 😕🙄

It should be under fixed add ons.

So when does everyone think the Apple direct orders (delivering 23rd) will actually change to : Shipped.

Today or tomorrow evening?🤔

Thats what I’m thinking also - I’m sure the 11 pros shipped on the Wednesday before release! Trying look back at my historic posts!

Lets see what happens 👍🏽

yeah I think things started moving earlier year... either was in the next 30 hours or so!


us poor sods with in store pick ups don't have any tracking joy!

Looks like the first person to mention a DPD email for an apple.com order last year was Thursday at 8:26am.

Exciting times ahead boys and girls 🥳

I'l be able to give you one in an hour or so 🙂

That's a worry :-( I've also ordered from Currys and apart from the initial email telling me I'd have it Friday I have heard nothing else since. I do hope they haven't sold more than they actually have.

Put the dpd app on my phone to see if I get any notifications tomorrow for pending deliveries.

I did wonder with AO. Their stock did appear to hang around quite a while comparative to others. Can John Lewis be relied on generally ? Or could it be another case, possibly, of over selling ? Of course the AO issue may be supply related delays..

Any idea what time they are likely to start showing on the website? Wondering if it is worth staying up till midnight or just chance it in the morning....

if I wasn't buying from Apple I'd be going to John Lewis next.

they don't do pre-orders so you'll have to be quick to grab one form 8am Friday on their site.. they'll only sell what they have in stock.


they can also do click and collect too

I'm sure they did exactly that. My worry is that they will honour orders randomly and not on a first time, first served basis. I'd have expected to get another email by now about the status of my order (apart from that "expect delivery by Thursday 22 October 2020" one I got after I placed the order).

 

[AVBeatMan]

Boom!

I'd do exactly the same. JL customer services rock.

Just to add that if you do order from John Lewis you can choose click and collect from a Waitrose or John Lewis.

 

[mrandyyu]

Boom!

Be careful with that milanese loop bracelet. It can do some serious damage to the watch when taking it on and off, charging etc!

Did they take your money immediately? They took the amount off my card straight away on the Friday so I'll not be happy if they don't delivery on launch day.
