Are people keeping their precious phones as spares or selling trading in?

Got an 11 Pro I’m considering upgrading from, unsure whether to trade or sell

trade with MM, but usually you get way better price before iPhone announcement a bit rubbish now
 
I bet they are well fed up of people ringing two or more days before asking about their orders. They have little to no more information until I would reckon tomorrow when the devices are collected by DPD.
Pretty much what they’ve finally told me after giving so many mixed messages - until the tracking number is generated they have no idea where it is…
 
Been on hold for about 10 minutes which is slightly worrying, might be checking their list of excuses to see which one might work best.

Yep that's because pretty much all launch day phones come direct from Hinkley.

I was on hold 20 minutes yesterday, and only about 12 minutes when I called today.


edit: unless you mean they PUT you on hold after they had already answered the phone and spoken to you? In that case the longest was 5 mins

You won't get anywhere by harassing all the staff, just wait for your reference which will probably be tomorrow.
Whatever happens will be as they can tell you one thing now and something can change tomorrow.
Apple can at will change a retailers allocation, happens every year.
 
I think CPW estimated delivery dates on their site are correct as I just noticed that the 14 Pro Space Black 128GB which up until this morning said delivery by 16th September has now changed to 5th October but the rest of the sizes including for the other colours still say 16th.

I think CPW probably got a much bigger allocation than Currys even though they’re part of the same group.

Wasn’t harassing the staff at all, just if I’m spending x amount of money with them every year to upgrade my phone I’d at least like to get a simple update on the order, which I haven’t had compared to some who have tracking numbers and DPD references.

Don’t think that’s unreasonable.

Yeah I didn’t really anticipate to upgrade, im not in a rush.

But yeah I guess sooner the better before value drops again
 
It’s odd how the new iPhone 14 cases are available now, but the new Watch bands aren’t available until Friday.
 
Oh the joys, iOS 16.1 beta is released!!!! To update or not to update now that is the question,
