I did temporarily sway to the iphone 8 plus earlier but watched a couple of youtube vids over lunch and firmly back in the X camp now.

When pre orders went live last week I ordered 2 8+ versions then the order didn’t go through bank declined it, so I thought wait for x instead thought nothing more about it but I have just received despatch notifications for both yet where has the payment come from lol

Just spoke to Carphone Warehouse and they informed me that “iphone” had emailed them and there’s a delay....

....please don't tell me you have your 8 already?!!! 😛
[doublepost=1505996760][/doublepost]I just received an email from Envirofone confirming (after I emailed them to clarify) that the lock in price is ONLY valid, 14 days from the date of me selling them my device!

I sold my device on 12th Sep, so 9 days ago. That means I MUST send in my iPhone 7 on Monday, to even be within the 14 day window (Special Delivery on Monday guarantees next day delivery, for Tuesday).

Thats cutting it TOO fine for me.....
😱

I'm currently enquiring if I can extend.....
😵

I wish it turned out to be a box of Coffee ordered from Amazon so disappointing!

 

[Treble]

Cex prices lol

I sold my 7+ to them on the very same day and received an email from them yesterday offering me the option of a 7 day extension. Not sure why you didn't get the same email.

For those in NI nightline delivers all parcels on behalf of UK Mail, UK Mail don’t have delivery drivers in NI, you may or may not get a delivery slot but you can call their Mallusk office in the morning and they should be able to give you an approx time

I saw a nightline van on the back of a tow truck with a smashed up front end yesterday (belfast - outer ring). Hope that won't affect deliveries tomorrow!

Looks like Apple made a second request for payment to your bank and successfully got payment.

Will you resist the temptation to keep them? 😀

Had an email from Very; my iPhone’s been dispatched and should be delivered tomorrow. Most of the 8 and 8+ colours/storage are showing as in stock and available for delivery in one working day. The one I’m getting (4.7” gold) is showing as the no.1 best seller. Interestingly, or not , both the space grey 8 and 8+ in 64GB & 256GB are still only pre-order.

Same... Kinda like it this way though knowing it’ll come through some time this evening. Long gone are the days of constantly refreshing my order page and checking the tracking statuses

 

[vine-boating]

I did, yes, as I took out my iPhone 7 Plus with them.

Am paying £68.99/month (I know, I know!!) but I get 30GB for the price of 20GB.

Would have preferred to have paid more upfront and less (minus RPI) each month.

Opted for the note 8 in the end. Couldn't afford the iPhone 8 plus

Vodafone offered me a decent deal
£49.50 for 32gb data and 24 months Spotify.
Still expensive but 02 are charging like £58 a month for the note 8 so I did okay i guess

Thats a good deal I am on the 32gb tariff and paying £62 a month and the o2 deal would cost £68 if you factored in paying for Spotify as well.

How did you get it so cheap as well?

 

[ojdavies]

My PayPal account is showing -£799 order received and -£799 authorisation, but this hasn’t been taken from my bank account yet. This shouldn’t be a problem should it?

 

[Azzin]

If you want faster charging, yes.

My order status says despatched by our supplier. I guess that means it’s coming direct from Apple?

I believe it will be coming directly from Apple.

I have just realised that it's approximately 30 minutes after midnight in Australia.

That means that in a good 7-8 hours, we will start seeing the first wave of buyers flooding in 🙂

Which Aussie will be first with the unboxing I wonder 🙂
