Currys have phoned my wife to say she won't be receiving the silver 14 Pro tomorrow as promised. They blamed Apple for not sending them any silver ones and said they will send her a purple one sometime in the future instead. Good job for them that I wasn't within earshot when that call happened...

Tomorrow is 7 days before the Music Magpie offer for her current iPhone expires as well, but given spcdust's experience I may be looking for another way to sell it...

Have some movement on the DPD app. Fingers crossed they get up here for tomorrow!

First they don't send any review units in silver, then they don't even send them to the retailers. It's nothing short of an absolute travesty.

Just got the DHL text saying they have got order details and are waiting for the parcel.

This message usually comes a few hours before the we have it text.

Now there's the rub - AppleCare+ with Theft and Loss expired on Monday 12th September. I FOOLISHLY let it go as the new phone was arriving tomorrow and was going to renew it on that one. I mean, really, could it get any worse?

Don’t quote me on this however, I believe based on my YouTube knowledge, that if the phone screen etc has been changed, the phone itself will flag it up as an unverified part, unless Apple ties the “new” part with your phone serial number.
 
This thread takes me back - anyone remember the OG iPhone launch - the 'negative screen' issues? All the rumours flying about the iPhone 2 having a front facing camera? Unlimited data from O2, being in fact, limited, then them acquiescing under pressure.

Then we had iPhone 3G but no decent 3G networks, iPhone 4 and antennagate and ermagawd its glass *smash*.

iPhone 5 and its scratchy bezels - then whatever iPhone it was that was bending in folks pockets...

Why do we do this to ourselves over a phone lol.

I wonder what it will be this year?

Wouldn't change it mind you :D

Contents insurance at all? .. we got ’new for old’ once we had kids and kept it. Managed to claim for an iphone that was stolen (surprised me but definitely made the theft less awful!)

Yep still says arriving tomorrow. I had issues with the site not accepting payment when I ordered, 3 cards and about 3 hours later I was able to pay. It went straight to preparing for dispatch and delivery on the 16th, but as of now no money has been taken.
I spoke to apple chat to query if there was any issue with payment on the order and they said no, it all looked fine, so not sure what’s going on. My other order dispatched just before midday just like everyone else’s, this one went through with no payment issue.

Keep the money aside just in case they charge you. But worst case, you'll get a free iPhone.

Oh no. I'm waiting for a Silver Pro from Currys to dispatch 😭
 
Not sure if this is allowed or not but I do plan on keeping either Gold/Purple, most likely gold as im not a fan of the purple colour with it being dark. Will have 256gb so if anyone wants to purchase, can meet me at Regent Street in the afternoon, that way instead of giving it back to Apple, someone else can purchase instead of waiting until October. Will also have Space Black in 128gb as well.
