UK iPhone 4S thread.

The Three shop in the Prince Bishops in Durham?

Yeah, ah well 🙂

still though, can't grumble at getting one with no hassle on Monday anyway, especially when you read some of the stories in this thread 😀 I wonder if it just depends who you catch in the shop then, or if each shop can decide what it sells on its own maybe, not just blanket policy.

Well, none at metrocentre or eldon square, north east UK 😡

 

[iPad-Lover]

Anyone get anything from Manchester Arndale or Trafford Centre?

 

[Pez555]

No luck for me either.

Sat there refreshing every 5 seconds from 20:50 until 21:10.....tedious yes....progress? none. waste of bloody time.

They wont confirm or deny they have them in stock, i tried that one, their calls are recorded and are told not to give out details apparently.

I think everywhere started with a 'contract only' policy but some are not allowing PAYG. I might pop in tomorrow and see if I can get a 32GB. Did you have to buy a sim as well? Just wondering how much it's gonna cost to get one and get it unlocked.

 

[ironman92]

gonna call the london stores covent garden must have stock if i saw the 64gb get reserved.

 

[toondw]

I see no point in spending over the odds to get a payg phone, nobody NEEDS a phone where they cant wait 2 weeks?

you cant walk in and buy a payg if thats what you mean....you can only get them through the reservation system now.

An extra £15 is hardly 'over the odds' on a £600 phone if it means getting it two weeks early.

Fair point! I misread, for some reason i thought the 16gb sim free was £399 from apple direct, forgot it's £499 sim free.

In that case, go for it!

My bag! 😱

 

[ooans]

what time exactly did it become available?

I believe it was somewhere near 20:58

 

[toondw]

Just checked out the 3 payg online store, 16 and 32gb phones sold out in white, so back to waiting for me, not buying the 64gb, £700 far too much for a phone that i know i will upgrade when the 5 comes out!

 

[Bobbytoad]

I thought the prospect of 3.5% cash-back from Apple Store http://www.quidco.com/user/123570/32231/apple-store was enough of a sweetener to buy online - but the wait is killing me!
then again doesnt look like there's much 'on the ground luck' either 🙁

 

[Mayrun]

Do you guys think I will be able to get a hold off a 16/32GB 4s in Regent's street or Covent garden store by next week or should I order one online? Thanks.

Check in store?

Does anyone actually know any network stores that are selling the phone on PAYG?

Oh I have been told if they had some in stock just not exactly how many.
