UK iPhone 5 thread

[duction]

My order still says processing. Is that good or bad? Placed it an hour ago..

mine says that too!

the UK page says dispatched in 2 weeks now


mine better say shipped soon or ima be pissed

 

[Lastof]

Changed to 2 weeks on the UK site now

Already? Wow. I though people would have at least till midday. I wonder if they have some shortfall manufacturing one of the new components.

 

[duction]

lol what did that take? a hour till dates pushed back!?

 

[yegon]

You'll be fine. As much as I'm someone who HAS to order at the earliest opportunity, I think anyone who orders today will be okay, maybe into late tomorrow.

Lol @ me it seems

I checked my bank online and my available funds are the cost of an iPhone less so I assume everything is ok...

Does it say "Delivers on 21/9 in most area", or has it changed to "Delivers 9/21". Mine has, but still says processing.

 

[cytefx]

shipping slipped to 2 weeks now

on the pre order page its now 2 weeks for shipping.

I have mine ordered through the app immediatly they opened, and just about 5 mins ago got to processing, and changed the delivery address

 

[Lastof]

lol what did that take? a hour till dates pushed back!?

I got a email from the apple news mailing thing saying preorders open now at 9:17, I suspect anyone who didn't know that before the email won't have managed to order in time.

I bought 2x iPhone 5 through my natwest credit card and have a feeling they'll block it. For people who used this method did natwest call you or did you call them? If so what number?!

I got an automated call which asked me to confirm a few transactions. Natwest is paranoid. I used my actual address as billing/shipping yet they decline. Luckily I used another card.

It shouldn't stay like that for anywhere near that long, i'd be a bit worried if that were me.

 

[boy-better-know]

Anyone got any idea how long I will be waiting for t-mobile to process my credit check? Thanks

[duction]

I rang 08457888444, hit * twice, and then told them a transaction had been blocked. They forwarded me to the fraud department.

I managed to get my order with Apple. Does anyone know for existing customers, if Orange will get you a nano sim? Or do you have to get the phone from Orange?

I just spoke to Orange and was told as they don't actually have the phone available yet, their system hasn't updated to allow nano sim orders. The suggestion was to call back on launch day or the day before and they should be able to do it.

I suspect, if they have any sense at all, that we will be able to order a nano sim online at some point next week...

 

[randystand]

Orange are such a bunch of amateurs. Launching iPhone 5 but yet hardly any of their staff even know what a nano sim is. According to orange helpers on twitter, they have no information surrounding Nano Sim's at the moment. Going to be a long week folks on Orange!

 

[leftyno9]

also anyone see this from the orange webiste? So when EE is ready you'll have to take out another 24 month contract! lets just hope its out soon and not in 4 months time or you'll end up with a 28 months contract!!


get superfast 4G LTE

The UK’s first mobile 4G network will be offered by EE, a new brand from the company behind Orange.

As an Orange customer, you’ll be able to move to EE for superfast mobile internet the moment it lands - here’s how:

get the 4G ready iPhone 5 from Orange
we’ll be in touch when EE launches
check where you can use 4G at ee.co.uk
sign up to the new EE plan of your choice
we’ll send you a new SIM and you’re good to go

So don't wait, take your first step on Orange today

Find out more about EE at ee.co.uk

terms and conditions

4G: Subject to coverage. UK only. Pay monthly only. When 4G launches a compatible plan on EE is required. Charges may apply and you’ll have to agree to a new minimum term on EE. Other terms apply. Superfast 4GEE: just how fast your 4G will be depends on a couple of things: where you are and how many other people are using 4G too. Have a quick look at ee.co.uk for more info.

Roll on next Friday.

[cperchard]

Just off the phone to Vodafone Business. 2 new contracts, 2gb data and unlimited everything else. With free 16gb phones!

They must be feeling the competition this year, giving the phones away...

Only drawback is delivery is up to 14 days... But with the 7 day cooling off, I'm still able to decide to go into the store next Friday and see if I can get them then, and return the Vodafone phones when they arrive.

How much per month and 24 month contract?
