nice, when did you send yours again?

I dropped mine off this morning and looking at tracking its still there. The staff at the PO kinda shrugged their shoulders when I asked if collection would be back to normal today!


did just get an email from MM taking me for dropping off the phone though!

I only go for EE upgrades because of work discount. But to upgrade you pay £600 if your contract is between 6 and 12 months old (phone has to be sent back). £300 to upgrade if your contract is between 12 and 24 months old (phone has to be sent back), or free after 24 months (phone is yours).
Used to be a free upgrade every year on a 4GEE MAX plan, but they stopped doing that a couple years ago.

22nd of sept I won't have to pay anything to upgrade to the 14PM

but I won't return my phone to EE - since I have a £628 locked in with Music Magpie.

always make a nice £100-£200 profit doing this every year.


I get NHS discount too :)

Tuesday.

Got an email on Tuesday from MM re dropping off.
 
my only problem is that I dallied about last year so my no-fee upgrade date is past the launch date for 14PM

will try my luck with EE on the phone - usually their accommodating of a few days/weeks
 
Work asked me to order an iMac for one of the departments.

Cannot find a single soul in my circle who got active Unidays account so i can avail £120 gift card lol.

Will you be able to share the Apple Education Store link from within Unidays lol.

Or just share your logins for 5 minutes 😁

Any of us with Unidays access (me included) can buy for you and have the delivery address set to wherever you want... It wouldn't work to share Unidays links unfortunately

My phone doesn't appear to have moved from the local PO since Tue, hopefully it'll start its journey to MM soon.

the strikes were last Friday and yesterday... next one a week today. I'm hoping mine arrives by then!

time to stalk the Royal Mail tracking app.. good practise for the iPhone release :D


those of you cutting it fine with your MM order dates might want to give yourself a few extra days for them to get it.

my 21 days should take me to the 14th for them to receive so plenty of time still....

I took mine to the local PO counter at the McCalls store near by... can imagine them not being on the priority to collect from list if busy :D

Ok . . So didn’t plan on upgrading last year, but my son wanted to buy my 12 pro max, so I upgraded to 13 pro max and upped the storage to 256 since I use a dac and lossless music now. My friend has just bought my 13 pro max and I’ve got her reg 13 which I’m really enjoying the size and lightweight, so I’ll upgrade to 14 reg or 14 pro 256 depending on price difference and worthy features etc. I’m definitely ready to go back to a 6.1” now.

Can anyone advise what's the best/cheapest way to buy and sell an iPhone every year without occurring high losses? Thank you. :)

Ah I remember when you got the 12 pro max and was debating the size! Time flies lol.

Enjoying my usual annual lurking on here. Don’t say a lot but I enjoy reading it all. I’ve had max phones since they came out but I’m also using a 12 mini as a running phone too (I‘ve got a watch as well but Audible is so rubbish on the watch it’s just easier to take a phone). Planning on going to a 14 Pro (not max) this year and then only use the one phone. My 13PM is locked in at £765 with MM but I doubt I’ll send it in - I’m concerned about price increases and if the 14 is too much I’ll just stay with the mini and the 13PM
