I've managed to get nearly £200 from Quidco. It's legit.
I've ordered a white one... I guess it could be seen as 'girly', but I think it looks fresh... might regret it but heyho.

Agreed. For some reason people have a lack of trust of Quidco. What's not to trust, you are using a link off a website that goes to a supplier that you trust and you get money back ... for nothing? Madness not to use it.

In order to avoid the delivery wait from Apple (I hate waiting), I've bought a white 4S from someone on eBay who was selling their upgrade from Vodafone. I paid the retail price and should be getting it on Friday, much better than the 1-2 dispatch + delivery time from Apple. 🙂
Also, if I'm not mistaken, it's free to get an unlock code from Vodafone. I'm with them anyway, but I'd like it to be unlocked for when I'm abroad and when I eventually sell it.

Had serious battery issues, 1% loss every minute, just listening to music with the screen off. Took it back to the Apple store today and they replaced it with a brand new retail boxed unit, no questions asked 🙂

Ta for the reply. I presume your new replaced iPhone is getting a decent battery life? Did you buy in store or online too btw?
Cheers.
Have you guys turned off the location services for timezone setup in system services?
Had a big impact on improving for me.

I haven't actually got my 4s yet, expecting it sometime next week, but I'll keep that in mind, thanks!🙂
Did i hell, from 8.45 refreshing on 3 computers at 3 stores and none had any in stock, gave up just now.....
Does the reserve actually work?😕
Its stupid waiting every night for 9pm just for nothing... It should at least say for each store when they are likely to get stock.

Vodafone haven't charged me to unlock, but then again, they claim they're gonna send me an 'unlock code' within 48hrs.
So I'll believe it when I see the Unlock message on iTunes! 😀
I was refreshing all 5 London stores plus Lakeside and Bluewater every few seconds and only a few 64GB White came up in White City but were gone in seconds!
At some point I managed to get the White 4S 32GB in my shopping basket. But even though I went forward as fast as possible by the end I was told that "there is no product to be picked up at the selected date" or something along those lines.
I don't even remember which store I had chosen... I was randomly changing between all the London stores.
And in one of those... just for a second... all the models were available!
It might have been a bug or an error... or the other people reserving were just insanely fast.
At least you saw some evidence that stock exists! 😀
Last night i believe a white 64gb was at the metrocentre, gateshead, but a refresh later it was gone.... Mind you i couldnt stretch to that price anyway!

I think I'll carry on trying to reserve one up until friday then just go into the store and see if any1 who has reserved one hasnt come to pick it up
Ahhh I just signed up and ordered another one through Quidco 😀.
I'll cancel the other one though as I don't quite fancy ending up with 2 iPhone 4S's 😉
x2 for the Reserve system, the first night it went live I could see 16GB Black in a store near me but I could never get beyond confirming the reservation....
