Got my silver. All set up apart from the esim transfer. How do I do it? I’m with O2 and have esim on my 12 pro max….but not sure how to transfer it to my 14 pro max.
 
Sounds like the trick for the MM kiosk is to take it during the working week, in the working day, probably avoid lunchtime and maximise the chance of getting an employee available!
Think you're bang on the money, Jinjin.

I don't think they've necessarily thought this through. Their business is a Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm operation, whereas most people using these machines will be be outside of these times at weekends and in evenings.
 
Looks like I’m not getting my phone today from DPD either. Guess it’s gonna be Tuesday now Gonna have a word with EE since my new contract started on Thursday and I’ve still not got the phone yet.
Wouldn’t they send it to the shop for collection? Bit of a wait that but hey you can enjoy the Queens funeral Monday lol 😉
 
For god sake…just spoke to O2 regarding esim transfer and they have to send a new esim out in the post!! Had no idea you couldn’t just transfer current esim to new phone. I now have to wait until late next week to receive it…..can’t use my new phone until then! What a ball ache. Not going esim again after this.

We are being pushed that way though so may be unavoidable soon. EE are better, I had no issues from physical SIM > eSIM > transfer eSIM, but I know others did and I was lucky.

I had this exact problem yesterday, much to my disappointment. However, I jumped in the car and went to the nearest O2 shop a few miles away. Once there the problem was sorted in less than 5 minutes.

Might do the same to be honest….but it’s a 30 min drive! Did you take both phones with you?

I just done musicmagpie smartkiosk and must say all went smoothly, with a bit of a wait. Any questions let me know, I think this is a great option to choose rather than sending it out and having issues like one of the guys here

That’s good, had you a locked in price from a while ago? Did they give you full price and sent money to bank/PayPal instantly?

Can you tell me the exact procedure as going to do this over weekend hopefully.

Do you reset iPhone, power on and press little i button to show IMEI etc and then scan QR, is that about it?

When you say took a while how long please as have sisters to do as well.

Thanks
 
Yes I did, plus photo ID, although I didn’t have to produce that in the end. Obviously they will ask various questions to verify your identity (name, address, chosen letters from your password etc).

I’d recommend it. It’s a quick solution (apart from the drive in your case). Whilst I was there I picked up a spare eSim pack and a spare SIM card (free of charge) for possible future use.

Esim in the post?

That’s it, I’m not touching them until Apple force me to!
 
Just had DPD pick up my mini for rebuy. I told the driver I wanted to take pictures of the phone in the box and he said ok then just slid it into the box! This is all I got. At least he took a photo but only of the front of the phone. I took some pics myself with todays paper.
