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

wish there was a siri shortcut to refresh the DPD app 😂

You'll get a push notification, I believe or maybe it does background refresh.

There’s still some fun to be had if you ignore the posts about discount codes and the price people are paying for their sim only deal.
Plus we could always talk about 1 hour slots again 😂

Bring back the 1 hour of slot action!!

Dear Customer,

Thanks for your recent Currys PC World pre-order for the Apple iPhone 12.

There’s been a delay to the dispatch of your order. So, your tech will arrive a little later than expected. We’re sorry about that.

We can now confirm that your item(s) will be in stock on the 24th November 2020 and then dispatched to you as soon as it arrives.

We’re sorry we didn’t get it right this time. Getting amazing tech to our customers is what we love to do and we hate having to make you wait. We’ll get it sorted and hope that you’ll shop with us again in the future.

Kind regards,

Currys PC World

Absolutely ridiculous

you'll be able to get walk in stock in store by then!

Also, welcome those EE members. Quite a few of you, I see... I‘ll sort my Perks account in a moment and will help out. 😜

A Perks code would be hugely appreciated if you have one spare, thank you.

I’m waiting as well, but for a Mini to replace my X. I’d like to upgrade my EE SIM only to a 5G plan in advance though.

At least with the wait for the Mini and Max we might have a chance to see the finishes on the other size in the stores first before we order!

At the rate I'm refreshing it, it wont have a chance to background refresh

Watching the Graphite unboxing and it looks so sleek!

 

[magicMac]

I heard colour availability is limited on each network

 

[Mr.C]

Indeed, but some things just aren't worth the risk.

I have to go to work five days a week travelling on public transport and I have to deal with the public in a customer facing roll so going to the Apple store isn’t going to make much of a difference in that respect.

Shockingly bad service, but then I’m not surprised as they are arguably the most horrific brand to still be in existence

 

[Jinjin]

I only ordered from Currys because somebody here told me they'd had a good experience and it would come on launch day, that person is a ****

gutted for you. I don't trust any store to deliver a pre order other than apple.

just try John Lewis Friday morning at 8.

Just got in touch with Argos due to all these unfortunate Curry emails.
They advised:

I can see that its in the warehouse ready to be sent out for delivery, i can also see its due to be delivered on the Fri 23/10/2020 07:00 - 21:00 by Yodel

Because its a pre order ,i don't have the tracking number yet

Any ideas on my question about battery replacement with AppleCare?

 

[Joe23]

Maybe that’s why someone earlier in the thread said there was a supply problem, AO must be doing a 2for1 deal to beat Amazon to the top sl_o_t in iPhone cockups this year!

If you guys end up with my phone... 🥺

What was your question?

I won’t end up with it, but maybe @SnooApples5021 could do......

A few years ago, I started the iPhone 5 UK thread, and it ended with 471 pages.

UK iPhone 5 thread

Guys from the UK, lets go! Here's some tools: If you have Boxcar installed, add this service: http://notify.acudworth.co.uk and you'll get notified when pre-orders begin and go live. Talking of pre-orders, we have an inkling that they'll begin at 08:00 AM, and here's how much you'll be...

the year of Francis? just searched that thread and yep I was there too 😂 😂

 

[wizzywig27]

Boom

i think we have all gone off topic a bit, please leave the EE discount stuff for hotukdeals or something guys

No!

Ah yes, the year of Francis 😀

Am I going to have to read the whole thing to get the Francis references made in this thread?

Just 2 more sleeps to go!!! Who's getting excited now? 😛😛😛

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

Completely agree - I had some screen scratches that were imprints of the strap that the Apple Store Genius refused to do anything about. I complained online to Apple about it and they replaced the watch with a new one.

Nice to know that Argos actually have their stock on hand.

 

[Jinjin]

It’s a shame this thread has basically turned into code begging! With the odd insult chucked around due to Covid rules discussions.

Bet you’re regretting offering them out now @ct2k7 🤣

there's only so much small talk we can have about cases and MagSafe 😀

it will be better tomorrow

 

[SnooApples5021]

If you guys end up with my phone... 🥺

no im just kidding really obviously they're not gonna send two phones 🙁 still am surprised but perhaps it was a genuine supply issue from apple?

 

[nikelegends]

Yes there was, I took that option as there’s no way I’m dragging myself to Bristol to collect a phone when they can deliver it to me for free.

Did either of you set up your Barclays finance before pre order day or just do it at time of ordering?
