They wouldn't do this for you in store as it's an online order and you don't have a store receipt. You'd need to go back through the online store.

Yeah, just phoned my local store and they said the same, he told me to phone Apple and they'd do it all as can't exchange in store as i didn't buy it in-store. He says he thinks it can still be exchanged if it's been opened though, so thats good. I'll probably phone apple as soon as it arrives.
 
So…. Got the iPhone and now all T-Mobile UK’s systems are down and now I can't get the bloody nano sim.

Lol did they say this? Only reason I ask is about an hour ago I picked up a Nano Sim and they told me that my old sim card would stop straight away. And that the new one would start. That hasn't happened yet lol
 
Tbh, I used to work at Apple Store, so whatever happens, I'm getting it swapped out by someone I know!

Cool, i've just phoned my local store and they said they don't swap them if you ordered online, but i guess they'll make an exception for you. I've got to go through Apple online now, urgh. :mad:

mines about 20mins away with DPD, ordered through vodafone. Cant wait :D

Upgrading from 8gb 3gs to 32gb iphone 5 , cant wait for a retina screen and better camera etc :D
 
Were you nervous - i haven't cut my sim yet - scared :eek: - looks so close to the gold plates...



I wasnt nervous as there is a 3 store near my home and I knew if anything goes bad ill pop in there and will buy a three nanosim :p. I actually had to cut a very tiny bit of metal as well but didnt have to do anything for the thickness as I suppose there is enough depth in the sim tray (atleast in my case)
 
are those who are complaining about scuffs, really scuffs/scratch marks?

out of the box, my black iP5 had "scuff marks" on.. a quick wipe with a microfobre cloth and all was perfect...

(PS: received mine via UPS at 09:46 - Nottinghamshire.. )

If you wanted to swap it for another black one, chances are they'd do it in store for you - Apple tends to be helpful; even if you didn't get the phone from them...
 
UK Mail just delivered mine. Can confirm if anyone bought apple care, there was a little jiffy envelope with a apple care booklet in it as well as the phone


edit: I'm in Bromley, London

10 mins from Bromley here, so fingers crossed!

Thanks for the update.

I'm wanting to swap it for a white one, as scuffs wont show as much on that one. Would they allow that?
 
Anyone in or close to Redbridge / Greator London ? Im still waiting for UPS the wait is killing me !
