Hi
I was just checking my apple order (sad I know!) and a tab has appeared by the phone item and one of the options is to choose delivery to a different address. This may be helpful for you?
Oi oi mates - congrats to all those who queued up and manage to get their phones!
Can anyone that came from a 5 give a quick comparison review if they preferred to upgrade or not ... Currently in two minds if I should upgrade or get myself an iPad mini (don't have not tablets)

It is but with such an approx delivery date (7-10th OCT) it depends what day it is to where I will be. Even my days at home it will probably turn up when I'm taking kids to school. I have loads of courier offices in town so hopefully they will use one of them and I won't have to travel too far.
Honestly? You wont notice the difference, speed wise (on 3g anyway as i haven't got 4g yet). The fingerprint sensor and camera tho are both amazing to use. All in all, im happy that i upgraded but unless you really want the Touch ID and new camera, id say stick with the 5.
Trying telling the wife that!
I wanted to stick with the 5 but oh no! she wanted the Gold 5S
So what she wants I get also lol
Can't believe it's a 7-10 workings day wait, surely they have a batch in a warehouse for all the first buyers last night
I so wish !

Seems like the warehouse is bare. Looks like ours will be coming straight off the boat. All stock seems to have gone to the stores.
Ahh, I'm delivery 3 for DPD! Arriving between 9:36-10:36, very excited! My contract sim card won't be arriving until Monday, so I'll be picking up a 3 payg one today to get it unlocked asap 
That's Ohio I believe - not sure what's there though. All I could find on google was an apple reseller.
Just back from the Buchanan Street Apple Store, they had no 5s stock. The guy (who I know is a manager) said they'd get none in today. I asked what time they tend to get deliveries so I'd know when to come in and check in future and he refused to tell me.
Just got back from Watford apple store thought I'd see on the off chance I could pick a couple S's and cancel my online order. Wen I got there there was a queue of only about 6 or 7 people. Tr manager spotted a queue was forming and came out to tell us they didn't get any S's but have C's and that they don't get any deliveries in Sundays so try again on Monday. Everyone in the queue walked off.
Hey guys,
Anyone order from EE? and have their tracking no from UK Mail? Do they leave it with you neighbours if your not in? Both my sister and I have ordered an iPhone 5s each and we are both stuck at work today. I was hoping they will leave them with our neighbours if they are in.
The worst way is I'm off of work on monday so I can take them in then. But it would of been nice to have them for the weekend.

I'm not sure, did you get a text from them saying choose your delivery date? I might be dreaming this up but im pretty sure I read somewhere that it has to be you that claims the phone.
We did both get a text message saying that it would be delivered today. and then text 1 for monday 2 for tues etc. I thought I'd take a chance and see if they leave it with a neighbour.
I think my sister has to shoe her ID cause its a new contract and different number mine is a new contract but it's on the same number as my old one. I reckon these delivery drivers won't care too much and just wanna get rid of their parcels.
I reckon that too, the contract is technically in my dads name. If it arrives today I'll let you know about the whole ID situation if they delivery drivers actually care as you say
After getting my 32gb 5s yesterday from Vodafone Plymouth, I looked at my receipt and I only paid £179.99 for the phone rather than £239.99! Happy days!!!
the 64 gig 1 is now showing as the same price as apple sell it - heads up to any1 who bought yesterday for an additional premium of £50 surely they cant do that to you

My opinion of DPD has changed slightly this morning. I've always been on the fence after having mixed service from them in the past.
However, now I like them! They do "live" tracking so I can see where the driver is and which deliver number he's currently doing (6 of 20) and roughly how long til he's here (1 hour 30)! Very impressive.

Looks like they've attempted delivery on mine and my sisters. Hers has gone back to the depot as she needs to produce ID. Mine just says left card so you never know it might be with one of my neighbours. I officially hate saturdays especially when I'm stuck at work all day lol
