lol this is why I booked off the wed Thursday and Friday off for the pro max pre order cos I won’t get anything done 😂
Not had the bigger sizes since the 7 Plus but camera system certainly sounds promising! Will be watching the videos. I don’t think I’ve actually seen a Max in the wild?
 
can a Perks code be added onto an existing contract that was taken out a few months ago or is it to late
i think if its an upgrade ie from a 12 month to a 24 month contract i think it can still be added i believe my code was used after the 30 day period and was accepted this was a student beans code though and again i;m not 100% sure if it was more than 30 days

I don't get it either, they were still showing stock for delivery on launch day well after I had placed my order. Even if they don't know an exact amount (although with technology today there is really no excuse for this) then they must have had a rough idea.

At the end of the day they are probably counting on most people to just roll over and accept the delay since in general people can't be bothered to cancel and reorder from elsewhere.

I will leave my order for now just in case by some miracle they find some more stock 'down the back of the sofa' but if it's not here by Friday then it will be cancelled and I'll rely on the order I've placed directly with Apple (or John Lewis if I can bag one there).

it’s precisely what they did with my order and thousands of orders last year. After that, I absolutely Luke never use them again for iPhone launch orders. I did get a £25 gift card after raging at them, but think I only had my 11pro delivered on the 19th of October (by pure chance of me checking their stock every day and calling customer services to pester them in getting me whatever they were adding to their website as in stock).

Yes please let me know how you get one. Mine is going off today. Out of curiosity, does the driver let you bring the box in to package it in or does he do it for you?
He does it for you. Mine went off yesterday Lunchtime and today I received notification that they had received it.

Just managed to bag a deal from EE

100GB 5G smart plan with 1 swappable benefit - £20 with a £10 loyalty discount so £10 a month. They wouldn’t accept my student discount code on top of that but will chance it again tomorrow and see what they say. Happy with that 😀

The best way to retaliate against the machine is to make them regret taking your money.

Shame they still don’t learn! Will never trust them with pre orders, every year the name crops up and One assumes they’d learn selling Apple pre orders makes the delivery date somewhat critical.
 
They should, but apparently they don't work in Safari, which I didn't know at the time.

Except when they do.

Got the email from CPW as well, absolute joke. Ordered a graphite 128gb IPhone 12 pro from ao.com

Well they have lost me as a future customer as well. Memories of poor customer service stick in peoples minds and often come up when discussing retailers with friends and family. Bad PR.

Hmm strange, I never got it to work. Someone reported that it works in a different browser though

I’ve no idea. Works for upgrades and new contracts but I did notice it only works on 24 month contracts. Could people have been clicking on a 30-day by accident?
