Thought that would be the case

Not sure if i did it in the right order?

I rang Barclays and paid off the full amount
Then rang Apple and they processed the refund

I plan on ringing Barclays next week to chase the refund

Is that what you usually do? @Jinjin

I’ve always rung Apple care to get the refund back no need to do this via Barclays. They just ask for your banking number etc and send it with an email invoice.

When I spoke to Apple they couldn’t process the refund straight to me it has to go to Barclays and then to me apparently

This was exactly the same for a friend and myself last year too.

How long did it take for Barclays to then refund the money?

Less than a week if I remember correctly.

Did you do the same as me? Pay off the Barclays loan then contact Apple for a refund?

Yes

 

[dogg]

I am not on IUP this year so can’t account for any changes to the policy though.

 

[dogg]

If there has been a change that is.

Yeah I’ve done it that way plenty of times. Barclays will get the refund and then credit it back to you

So are we potentially 2 weeks away from keynote day?

So are we potentially 2 weeks away from keynote day?

Hopefully!

 

[Bazooka-joe]

Hopefully!

So are we potentially 2 weeks away from keynote day?

Yep. Two weeks today so an announcement should be in the next seven days or so

 

[Supersonicc]

Well I am pumped already for the keynote!

I was going to flog my 12 Pro Max on fleabay but now considering locking in with Music Magpie (soon!) with the 21 days is the easier/safer sell option.

 

[swfcdm1]

Sold my iPhone 12 Pro on Sunday and will be using an old iPhone 6S until the 13 comes out it’s going to be a long 3 weeks

 

[The Game 161]

So when are you sending off your iPhones to sell?

 

[The Game 161]

Sold my iPhone 12 Pro on Sunday and will be using an old iPhone 6S until the 13 comes out it’s going to be a long 3 weeks

Snap will be using an old 6s as well

Might wait til 6th then send it off if we get 14 days on the comparison sites

 

[AVBeatMan]

what’s the oldest iPhone you’d consider buying to use before the 13 comes out? iPhone 7 maybe?

 

[Bazooka-joe]

I shall order the 13 Pro Max and I’m actually going to keep my iPhone 12 Pro this year and use that as my spare phone for the next five or six years. That way next year I can sell my 13 pro max several weeks before the 14 is announced

 

[Cutiekitty92]

So when are you sending off your iPhones to sell?

I haven’t quite decided yet 😅 kinda need my phone and don’t have a back up nor want to buy a back up

 

[The Game 161]

6s here but I don’t want to use it for more than a few weeks

 

[9646829]

So when are you sending off your iPhones to sell?

Sold my 12 last week, using my backup SE 2020 until the 13 Pro Max is out.

 

[AVBeatMan]

And where's the best place to sell? MusicMagpie? Who's the most reliable?

 

[johnyslats]

Just locked in again with Samsung recycle for a further 7 days after no price movement. Suspect this will change in the coming days so going to need a burner to get me to launch

And where's the best place to sell? MusicMagpie? Who's the most reliable?

Really depends on your model & storage capacity. sellmymobile.com and compareandrecycle.co.uk (while not exhaustive) will give good overviews with links to trustpilot scores.
