For those on pickups who've allocated someone to pickup, do they get an email when it's ready or how does that work?
 
Anyone with a 28th-2nd November order had it moved forward? Was hoping My 12 Pro might turn up a bit sooner. Ordered as soon as the site became available from the top of a mountain in the clouds - cloud computing at it's best...

What are the options for on the day now if it doesnt dispatch later?

Definitely retry. Tried upgrading my existing 4G 20GB sim only with an existing 20% student discount on on Sunday, couldn’t get the code to apply. Code from my own studentbeans account via The Open University.

Called EE on 150 on Sunday, got told the same as yourself (5G 100GB sim only deal was already on offer) so couldn’t apply the student discount code. Upgraded over the phone there and then at the full £20 cost.

After reading so many stories of people having their 20% student discount codes honoured, I called EE back on 150 this evening and asked for my student discount code to be applied. They could apply the code itself (only works during upgrade application online), but they could apply a 20% discount perk instead for the 24 month life of the 5G 100G £20 deal.

Found the EE advisor tonight to be much more helpful and accommodating that the one I spoke to on Sunday.

Still have my wife & sons lines on my account with their extra lines discount, so EE are still making £56+ for our 3 lines (mine with 5G 100GB, wife’s with 4G 20GB and sons with 4G 100GB)
Guy I spoke to a guy on the phone. He was helpful and seemed to think that I could definitely have my £9 loyalty discount.

Have had to revert my contract AGAIN and then I'll need to speak to upgrades
 
Quick one guys, has anyone received a tracking number from Argos yet? I booked it for Friday delivery through the live chat as recommended by a couple of people here (thanks). Nothing yet ever since though..
They said you will probably get tracking info from 6pm tonight.

it's hit and miss with EE, but the chat over call always works better for me.
 
Giffgaff have just opened orders of the iPhone 12 (pro), with some available for delivery tomorrow (sorry if already posted).

Interestingly, no silver pros!

So... my iUP pickup is quite late in the day, but it appears I can book a timeslot for a case to be picked up earlier. Do you reckon they'd let me pick my phone up then too, or would they make me come back later for the phone?!
 
Anyone else having there's shipped with DHL?

I can't believe that being based in Hinckley right next to the huge DPD depot they're sending mine to DHL over in Leicester for it to come all the way back to Hinckley. :oops:

Got two deliveries, one for iPad Air and one for iPhone 12, DPD for the Air, DHL for the phone. Though have just been given tonnes of work to do tomorrow, so the excitement will be in the evening no matter when it comes :(
