Just £5 with 5MORE at the moment. Suspect it'll soon be UPGRADE23 based on the last couple of years.
Thanks. The wife’s 12 Pro is going next week as my daughter is giving her the ‘spare’ 14 Pro she has in the US when she comes on Saturday.

Going to put the £320 I’ve been quoted in my ‘Apple’ savings account towards what ever I fancy in September. Also handy that every year it’s my birthday in September (weird…every single year at the same time lol) and I always make out with about £3-500 in Apple vouchers. Sell my 14 Pro and the 15 Pro will be free lol
 
I apologise - I know this is off-topic but as a U.K.-centric thread, I thought I'd ask here...

For those on SIM-only plans - what are you currently getting? I haven't upgraded/renewed/refreshed mine in a couple of years now (since I started buying outright, I just haven't wanted to battle contact centres and haggle).

On EE - I'm on what appears to be a super legacy plan: "Smart SIM Plan 24m Unlimited £28" looking at my bills though, I'm paying around £29.24 - but this includes Apple Music so a £10.99 value. £18.25 for unlimited solid 5G - on reflection, I think I might leave this alone until they force me onto another plan? Unless someone can point me to a better plan? :cool:

On Vodafone - I'm on: "Unlimited Max + 4 Xtra benefits" for £34.70. I have no idea what the 4 "Xtra" benefits are but I travel a lot and I've become accustomed to the 83-country inclusive roaming and the £6 per day for countries outside of those. Vodafone's offerings are convoluted and appear to split both GBs, speed and perks? I think my equivalent plan appears to be: "Unlimited Max + 3 Xtra benefits + Entertainment" but it's £50! It also includes YouTube Premium, Amazon Prime or Spotify. But I already have Apple Music and my YouTube Premium is set to Argentina and is £3 for family. :D

Damn, SIM-only plans got shockingly expensive! o_O

Amazon prime day is selling the 128gb iPhone 14 pro for £949……

After hearing the rumours of the price hike for the new 15, I’m tempting to upgrade my 13 pro, to the 14 pro and skip the 15 pro. As the other rumours seem to indicate not a huge amount of difference other than changing to USBC. But there is FOMO, although I managed it last year when I didn’t upgrade then…..

Dont do it i say. Stick with 13 Pro if its serving you well.

14 pro price will drop even more after 15 pro release. Grab one then.

Or you never know there might be an Amazon price glitch for 15 Pro listings.

A couple of questions looking to switch over to esim for the very first time iPhone 15 Pro Max this September can you have two cellular mobile connections on at the same time or do i have to toggle a switch between esim/sim thanks

Looking to probably using Vodafone or ee esim and smarty normal sim card.

You can have both lines switched on simultaneously.

You can pick/choose which line defaults to calls and which line defaults to data.

Simple yet very handy for travelling.

They won’t release them until nearer the time. You can only apply the code at the time of checkout.
Can I ask, will this cover me even after the announcement etc? Can I keep doing this renewing quote because I really cba to get a burner this year so wanting to use it until new one arrives or do you think not possible? TIA

This is exactly why we do it!! Once you lock in the price and add to your basket and add coupon code if there is one you then have 21 days to send it.

Cheers for information is this correct if you remove your data plan or restore your iPhone from fresh you will need to visit the network store and proceed to going back to a physical sim with your mobile number and request a new QR code esim.

Cheers last question what happens if you reset your iPhone will you lose the esim or delete your esim profile do you have to obtain another QR code heard horror stories on the EE forum people need to visit the ee store and request a replacement sim card and move back to esim again is this the same with every network.
You get the option to keep your plan when you go through reset process.
