Wonder if the new bands will be in store today. Showing as not available for pickup but can be delivered next week. I want to get on today whilst at store!!!

Or throw it on your roof, hide in your wheelie bin, leave it with a dodgy neighbour haha!

Possibly lol, tbh the local Yodel delivery guy around here is nice, just hope he’s early for a change as he’s not usually in the area till last

 

[adamgbiggs]

Yodel are delivering your iPhone??

Yes, ordered from Virgin Media

Walk ins apparently not happening in the UK?

No Apple Store queues to buy iPhone 14 at Friday launch as UK mourns Queen

BRITS won’t be queueing outside the Apple Store for a chance to buy the new iPhone this year. A new restricted system is in place over the weekend – before a full UK store closure on Monday. …

🎉 Good morning UK iPhone crew! The wait is almost over, for it is officially iPhone Day - the adult Apple fan's equivalent to Christmas Day as a child - and before long we'll be receiving our shiny new devices! 📱

My parcel arrived at DPD's depot at 4:52am so now it's a case of waiting for the delivery slot announcement!

I must say though it is all bittersweet - on one hand I can't wait to get my hands on my new phone, but on the other I'm gonna miss this thread and its people when it inevitably dies down from tomorrow! 🥹

But enough soppiness - BRING ON THE CHAOS!!!! 😄

According to the 16.1 beta thread iOS 16.1b1 is available for iPhone 14.

Morning 6am crew! Extra phone for partner reserved tomorrow at Trinity Leeds. Finally worked via Barclays Finance

Unfortunately they don’t. 7 day rule is only valid for true orders and not upgrade program reservations. Unsure if I was clear enough in my post above.

My reservation is for the upgrade program and it says they keep it until the 23rd.

Stock levels live on Apple Store app for pickup

Yes lots of “pickup today” slots available for the main colours!

Ones who have late delivery slots get in there!!

Apple direct btw!

Oh dear. Won’t stop ordering on app for collection though.

 

[msmyth]

Any other DPD NI orders here?

 

[Felixmycat]

Just managed to reserve a phone for pickup today after amazon failed

Yep that would be 7 days.

 

[RossMacca]

Oh wow! I’ve just ordered for pickup today!

After all that stress, Apple has loads.

Defo looks like it. I want a new band. My store is pickup tomorrow but I am going today

 

[Gubro]

Yep that would be 7 days.

So he doesn’t have to do anything, his phone will be there on Tuesday for pick-up.

 

[judethat]

Phone is currently at the DPD depot locally which is about four miles away from me.

What’s the best process for switching from 128gb to 256gb on an in store pick up Barclays finance? Ask a Apple Store employee?

 

[RossMacca]

Never felt so much satisfaction than just cancelling my Amazon order.

So now I can pickup from Apple, bought outright, but I have an order with them for delivery 3-10th October in Barclays finance, exact same model. Wonder what my chances are of getting them to swap the finance to the new one without another credit hit?

 

[JamesSinger94]

Well after the hassle I had with the pre order and not being able to get launch day pickup/delivery I have been able to get one reserved this morning for pickup today 😁

 

[jacklroberts]

Good morning everyone, it’s iPhone 14 day. It’s certainly been a long week, I’m still not 100% certain I’ll be getting mine today as they didn’t receive the parcel until 1am but it is on its way to the local depot, who knows 🤷‍♂️. Anyway enjoy iPhone 14 day and have an amazing day 👍

 

[richardjhurst]

Just spoke to an Amazon customer services rep and they do not have stock yet so there is no chance that they will be dispatching today as promised just cancelled my order and went onto the Apple app and you can now order phones for pick up in Store tomorrow so that’s what I’ve done. Happy days

 

[Lyrical]

Seems like there’s loads to pick up from apple directly especially around London. Good luck to all!
