That was stressful! Terrible Wi-Fi at work made it a painstaking process but have secured my 256GB Silver Pro Max for Friday delivery.

Also ordered a Sequoia Green leather case for delivery next week and the same colour wallet which should be coming the following week. Now I can relax 😅

I've been on the rolling/monthly on my 12 Pro Max. From the Apple literature, there's no 24 month cap - it continues so long as your rolling payments continue.
If i had seen this option on the pre order screen i might of gone for it! Might ask for a change next week when the excitement blows over.

Thanks for the EE codes you posted earlier. I will be using one later for a sim only deal!

all 256gb pro max are still available
 
Apple said on the phone they can see my pre approval is fine and the link will work at 1pm today. Yet it’s not working, apple just told me they can’t help as it’s down to Barclays. Sooo stupid since my application has been accepted since Wednesday.

App went well, and done by 1304 - but my preorder didn't appear in the first instance & I nearly panicked and got a Pro instead of Pro Max before I noticed, but all good in the end.

Roll-on next Friday!

I'd also put in a good word for John Lewis for anyone who didn't get what they want today - they've come up trumps for me in the past & will be open for orders next Friday / overnight click & collect from Saturday.

I ordered an iPhone 13 Pro Max 128GB in graphite and an iPhone 13 mini 128GB in pink. Experience a bit of a disaster this year. My payment was declined on three cards despite having approved the payment through my banking apps each time, and I finally got it to go through using Paypal with day one delivery. Still no sign of my pre-approved pre-order in the app or in the website, had to go through and do it again.
 
Got the 128gb graphite Pro for the 24th, only just got on 15 mins late and still available.

Guess the 13 isn't going to do 12 numbers in sales thats for sure, if the 120hz and camera doesn't impress then ill return.

How do trade ins work with apple? how long do you have to send them the phone?
can you open it try the phone and return it and get full money back? if on very you post it back i assume? Or can you only return its its unopened
 
PSA: In eagerness to post screenshots of order confirmations, please be sure to triple-check and make sure order numbers, personal info etc. is removed.

A lot of the courier websites allow searching by additional references numbers - it's, therefore, possible to obtain tracking numbers from just order numbers.

Plus, each year there are some sad trolls that mess with people's deliveries - changing dates, addresses etc. because they gained access to the courier tracking from the above info.
 
the 1TB pro in Blue and gold and graphite has slipped to 29sept-4oct - silver still OK

other pro models look available


the pro max in blue 1TB has slipped to 29-4.. others OK

pro max silver 128, 256gb and 1TB - 4-11oct!
gold 1TB max - 4-11oct

all pro max graphites - 4-11th oct
Interesting that the Silver Pro Max has run low so quickly again like with the 12 Pro Max. Entirely possible they've simply produced fewer of them.

Store stock is starting to dwindle on the higher capacities. No 1TB stock at any of the listed stores near me, and 512GB starting to show as unavailable.
 
Grrrrr. I keep getting 502 bad gateway on the web site and transaction interrupted on the Apple Store app and already the phone I have in my basket that initially showed a 24 Sep delivery date now says 4 - 11 Oct plus the option to pick up from my local store on 24 Sep has also disappeared. I've ended up placing my order on Amazon and just hoping I might get a reasonable delivery date.

I had the same. Clicked the link from the calendar invite and it worked.

predictably shambolic stuff over on the EE website. got through to the checkout page and simply can't find a way to input my discount code. literally won't let me click on the text area. trying again in Firefox and the website has ground to a halt...
Agree. Website was shocking. Eventually figured to go incognito in chrome and it worked. Saw the page several times before and buttons weren’t clicking. Got myself Sierra Blue Pro in 128Gb. It said for launch but who knows with EE. Just happy it’s over. Worst preorder experience IN MY LIFE!!! I need to go and lie down 😅
