You will. Speak to channel returns and make it clear that you’re not happy with the current device but do wish to upgrade. Get them to note the account to say the discounts should be transferred upon re-upgrade and the upgrade agent will then apply the same discounts via their manager. I’ve done this recently.
You could even push for £10pm and 20% off if you felt comfortable in doing so.

not even sure they’d get the bag to me in time to allow me to get it back to them before Friday tbh
 
Looks like non-essential shops will be closed before the Max comes out so we’ll be ordering online, unfortunately.

How are Music Magpie, by the way? Easy to use? I’ll have an XS Max I’d like to get some money back for.

Sent my XR to Music Magpie on Monday lunchtime. It arrived late Wednesday, they acknowledged it turning up late on Thursday and took about 3-4 hours from that to say it had passed inspection and I was getting full payment. Woke up this morning to the money in my bank, even though they said it would be up to 2 days.

What's an XR? Sounds like a CAR!

Had to share my new Pitaka Air Case for my 12 Pro. New design is amazing and as thin as ever. I’ve tried these and the Later Case and these win hands down. My opinion of course.
 
Well I finally got my case after over a week!

Why did it take that long to arrive?

2nd class? No. It shipped from Denmark!
 
Does anyone know if Apple generally stick with the trade in price they offer you or are they known to reduce it?

Im waiting it out for the pro max and had £430 locked in with MM for my 11 which has now dropped to £390, but Apple are offering £400. In fact Apple seem to be the best trade in price around just now.

Not sure whether Apple have a tendency to reduce but have you tried ReBuy? A lot of people here have been very pleased recently with their valuations.

Yeah have been keeping an eye on ReBuy and their price seems to have dropped like a stone over the past couple weeks. It’s now down to £350

I presume it’s because they have had a lot of iPhone trade ins
 
No upgrade programme then. That would be a bummer.
Indeed, I find it absurd that we still have to run an in-store credit check every time you trade in. I was actually quite keen on it this time round because I'd have saved about 120 quid per year as I was looking to step down to a 128gb Pro Max...

Never had a problem with them. Never downgraded my price.
 
Time is coming soon again. Next Friyay!!
Is the lockdown imminent to save X’mas? I am anticipating that we may require to order this round for home delivery.
Have been in lockdown for a week!

But nearest Apple shop is too far away to be sensible, anyway. I don't think other shops which are nearer (phone shops & Stormfront) will have any to pick up. So 100% delivery.
