Seems like the reservation didn't come through, I would expect the email to arrive by now. Oh boy this is so messed up

So far nothing....!

 

[minkyman]

No... please say it isn't true..
it couldn't be that Apple haven't sent out ANY emails this time could it?

That would be totally messed up....😱

They still have 25 minutes yet. Fingers crossed!

 

[Nathan20]

Reservation was 100 times better last year, first come first serve!!!
(Still no email)

 

[Chris_c81]

7mins to 9pm and still no email...

 

[minkyman]

so, nobody got one this time then? UNBELIEVABLE!! 😡

 

[Chris_c81]

Nope. So disappointed with Apple this time round. I've had every iPhone since the 3G and I've never had anything near this much trouble and frustration purchasing an iPhone.

Not a sausage across 4 or 5 different efforts.

I'm now starting to believe they genuinely don't have stock, and are just using the reservation system as a polling system to see just how much profit they could have been raking in had supply hit demand!

Awesome, what time did you get your email? Before 9pm or just now?

 

[Aniseedvan]

Awesome, what time did you get your email? Before 9pm or just now?

And what time did you do the reserving thing?

Can someone explain the significance of the 9pm time for someone who's not entertained this crazy notion before?

Around mid-day I put in the reservation and got the e-mail about half an hour ago. Need to cancel my online order now as that arrives in a weeks time!

 

[Nathan20]

Boom got one aswell

Once you have put a reservation in the email is supposed to come through by 9pm.

Finally got a reservation through for a 32GB White in Southampton....... only problem is, they've taken the money off my cc for the one i ordered a few days ago online.

Would anyone know if they've taken the money, or can i cancel my online order and get the reservation one tomorrow?

Got one! 32GB Black Sim Free at Sheffield!

Ahh your lucky mate!! Ive been trying to reserve in Sheffield a 32GB sim free and cant get one 🙁

Your lucky mate you got your email through.

Lol let me have the one from Apple shop, youve only got a week to wait for your delivery lol!! 😛

After over a week of nothing I've just had two reservations come through (to different email addresses) for the Cardiff store. Both 32gb black.

Happy days!

 

[gembobs]

been trying to reserve for 2 weeks finally got a reserve email today at 9:30 32gb white trafford centre

 

[zoonyx]

Turns out I did get one. Only a 300 mile round trip to do tomorrow!!

Does anyone know how to confirm that I've got a sim free reserved? I don't want to go all that way and them tell me it's a contract phone?!

Any thoughts?

 

[browsingid]

Nothing for me in London. Tried for 64GB black at Regent St, White City, Covent Garden and Stratford....

 

[Chris_c81]

Well done to those who got one. Jammy gits!

 

[4004]

Oh man, used my friend's name, the reservation went through (miracle) and my friend won't be in town! Had to cancel it. Maybe they will have it if I just come round to the store?
