Thanks to whoever suggested checking at 6am for Apple Store pickup, looks like I can now join the launch day party after all after the mess in preorder day

Yep same here. Amazon have truly lied to everyone about delivery today so just ordered an instore pick up tomorrow

Exactly the same as me. Delighted with Apple now but still disappointed in the pre-order shenanigans.

I’ve did my pickup for today but I won’t be able to make it in till Tuesday, they do hold orders right?

Still “We will email you when we have an estimated delivery date” from Amazon. Pretty disgusted they can sell orders without having the stock.

Happy launch day everyone, looks like I’ll be sitting this one out for the first time in a while.

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

Ones who have late delivery slots get in there!!

Apple direct btw!

Well Amazon really did me over. No movement, nothing at all.

Secured an order for in-store pickup today. Amazon order cancelled.

Do you guys fully charge your new iPhones before using or just use as it comes?

I’ve never done anything to look after the battery! Literally charge it on and off all day when in and out of the van and charge it over night and never ever had an issue with a battery on a phone. Health is 98% still too.

The android sheep are going to be all over this aren’t they!!! FFS.

Let’s hope it doesn’t affect us too much today

Well to be fair for once, if you’re going to make sure of ONE bloody thing it’s make sure people can use their Brand new phones !!

I truly believe Apple hasn't been the same since Steve jobs for software, well actually throughout the business really.

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

Or even today depending on store. I can collect today from Manchester Arndale but not Trafford Centre
 
I suspect Amazon will see a lot of cancelled orders this morning. They’ve got what they deserve.

Amazon won’t care. It is an Apple marketplace. All branded Apple. For launch they would come from Apple anyway.
 
Have to remember especially for launch Apple completely controls who gets what and when. Most retailers have no idea what they are guaranteed to get until they get a notification to say the order was fulfilled.

I know they won’t care but it feels good not having to deal with them.

I get that they don’t really sell them, and I argued with an agent about this. I’m a paying customer and all I care about when will I get my product and how much will it cost me. When I ordered, their website implies a 16th September delivery. They absolutely should clearly warn you that they have no control over stock when you order to the point you could be waiting weeks and months.

IMO Amazon/Apple shouldn’t list them until a few weeks later. Amazon pretty much always have no stock on release day.
