#TeamDHL - Have just looked back over the last 24 months of their deliveries for me and 1 hours slots usually sent via text between 7:40am and 9:15am latest.

Wonder what the range will be today! Be sure to post!!

Correct, but it’s likely you won’t see daily stock refreshes everywhere.. can imagine once this first load of stock goes, it might be a few days before more appear

Thanks! I will certainly buy one, but I am still massively undecided between sizes.

Does anyone know how strict Apple are about your IUP time slot? Have a 9:15 but would love to get there a bit earlier.

Morning everyone, will catch up with the thread in a bit but wanted to say happy new iPhone day, I hope the courier God’s smile brightly on us all waiting for delivery 🤞

They might ask you to wait

After the release day cock-up with the app seemingly coming back online 10 minutes after everyone else I managed to get a pickup sorted for the Watford store this morning . Hopefully it will not be too much of a zoo in there.

I ended up with the Purple PM, not my first choice of colour but some videos make the colour look fantastic. Others make it look bloody awful.

If you’re early they’ll try to fit you in but it’s unlikely if it’s busy (which it will be)

Ordered this morning for in store pickup tomorrow at 9am.

That’s far better than my October delivery order.

No issues with trade in or finance either due to two orders.

Happy Friday people!!!

When do join Lewis show their available stock? Can’t see anything showing as available - are they already sold out or their store not ‘open’ yet even online?

Do they show store stock or just click and collect option?

8am

Could I order a phone for pick up on Tuesday or Wednesday with a normal checkout and then in store change to upgrade program? When I go through the upgrade program directly I don’t get availability for Tuesday or Wednesday…

Anyone who accuses me of having my priorities wrong at work today can get lost 🤣

I always think prior to pre order apple should non operational dummy units in store to help inform your choice

Nice work. Didn’t manage to get Watford today. Annoyingly im leaving from the junction this afternoon so a pickup today would be perfect. Shame. Oh well.

I was online at just after 6. People are quick?

Hope you ordered a McMuffin with that coffee lol

Good morning and good luck

 

[Ted Lasso]

Timeslot 10:53-11:53. I'll take that.

 

[aeroalex]

DHL have so far given me this as a time slot: ‍

 

[Pedster]

Is it "etiquette" to post photo of new phone in hand once delivered?

Not got mine yet, just getting a feel of expectation from everyone.... have a few cases to try on this bad boy also...

I did something similar but in order to pay with gift cards. Hopefully if you explain the situation it will be just fine.

8am

Do John Lewis have same day pickup?

 

[Brenster]

Happy iPhone Day morning all! Got an iUP reservation at Apple Trafford Centre at 11.15 so will be driving to TC and imbibing a bucket of Nero latte on arrival. Will be keeping an eye on the thread throughout the day though - Best of British to those who’ve ordered through carriers for delivery etc and have to deal with some of their less than reputable couriers.

 

[AnDi86]

Anyone else Very order use Yodel rather then their usual Royal Mail?

My yodel delivery tracking says it’s still in the National Hub and delivery estimate is tomorrow!

 

[drunkmouth]

Let me know mate as I’d Like to do the same

You’ll have to do a new application in store. Can’t pay the difference. Bear in mind, having already made a recent application means you could get declined but more often than not this would be okay.

Wow, so many new pages since I went to bed. I have my apple order arriving today, but anyone ordered with Amazon had any updates?
