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

[iGeek2019]

And it’s Friday. Looking forward to seeing how you get on with them and initial impressions.

Yeah. EE been pretty silent on it today, hopefully update late night or tomorrow morning.

Only update I had was the contract updating from the old to the new plan.

I haven't even had my contract change yet haha. It almost feels like I haven't actually ordered it but chat support assured me its ordered.

Reviewers that get the iPhone early for videos don’t actually get to keep them.

They all have to sign a loaner contract prior to receiving their units, agreeing to give the device(s) back undamaged.

In the end, Apple STILL makes them buy their own

That’s why I also said to get them early.
I’d imagine they would get an exclusive discount on one though, if not then the amount of views they receive should give them enough revenue to buy one, alongside sponsors income.

My direct order from Apple shipped by DHL is not moving
DHL website is just showing the parcel as "Collected" , on Syncreon the last update is "Arrive Terminal" at Ryton today at 12 PM

Don't worry too much. collected means it's at your local depo. the second image is my last update from DPD

 

[DeApp1e]

Iirc they just tell you which drop you are and where they’re up to, but might be different for premium deliveries

that’s better than nothing, thank you

Btw i dont know what if this trick still work or not. If you getting phone on carrier contracts. Use e-sim to activate it and not physical sim. I tried it with my EE 11 pro. Used e-sim plan out of the box and used physical O2 sim. My 11 pro never got sim locked.

Paying £50 per month for an iPhone 12 Pro 256 GB with 100 GB data is not a bad rip off in my opinion 😊

Staff discount? The network would make absolutely no money on that sale, in fact they'd make a loss.

If you can detail how you got that deal I would be most grateful as I used to work for that red company and something like that is unheard of.

Ee let me down.

Friends and family plus loyalty discount.

Glad to hear you’re at least getting the one you’ve ordered! I’m going to cancel my order with AO if I manage to snag one with John Lewis tomorrow.

Seems like a good plan! Hopefully you’ll get it on launch day after all!

Absolutely astonishingly good service from AO bearing in mind I ordered only yesterday evening after Currys screwed up my order I made on the first day of pre-orders.

Glad to hear it all worked out!

I'm getting "Sorry this order type is unavailable to view right now." so theres gotta be good chance you will still get iPhone, it's slow at updating.

I'm not even getting an estimated time until 11am apparantly. Oh well. Took the day off because I needed a bit of a break anyway, but work set on fire and I've literally been sitting at home on zoom calls like all day and now its half past midnight and still not finished. So thats tomorrow wrecked. But hey new phone!

So now the Apple and DPD sites aren’t crashing so often I noticed that DPD is delivering to my address but where the county usually is it says “not specified”. Obviously still allows them to deliver it, but does explain why my dad got a notification and I didn’t.

Going to update my Apple registered address so that hopefully I get notified of any (inevitable) future purchases

 

[Apple Mac Daz]

mine is ready for collection but just noticed the full amount is no longer on my credit card

Where did you find this?

probably just the hold on your card expired. They can only keep it for so long. You will see the full charge appear once you’ve picked up usually

Mine is still showing as "collected" with DHL. It hasn't updated in about 12 hours. It looks like they are going to take their sweet time anyway as it's estimating Monday delivery even though o2 promised it for launch day.

DHL is still showing as “collected” for me as well, though it is due today (Friday).

Same here... they need to get a shift on!

It's going to be a real pain for me if I don't get it tomorrow. I've sold my Galaxy S20 plus and have to post it tomorrow so I'll be without a phone over the weekend. Then without one in work on Monday. o2 were fairly useless when I spoke to their online chat!
