UK iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus Thread

I tried chrome for the millionth time and saw it starting to load, so cracked on with it! I even risked changing my address ;) risky business!
 
Well after #notworthwaiting all day to see what 3 did, I ended up going with Vodaphone as I get good coverage with them and I'm a Spotify Premium and Netflix subscriber anyway so that saves me a significant amount. Ordered via Car Phone Warehouse who were a fair bit cheaper than Vodaphone direct. In fact price matched with CPW to P4U who had an even better deal which CFW match AND then refund me my first months payment.

iPhone 6 Space Grey 128GB. unlimited calls/texts, 7GB 4G data

Vodaphone price: £53.50/month + £159
CW price: 48.50/month + £129.99
P4U price: 48.50/month + £69

So by ordering with CFW and matching to F4U total price works out at:

£1233
- £48.50 refund
- £240 saving on Spotify premium
- £35.94 saving on Netflix
- £130 for selling my 4S 64GB

= £778.56

which works out at 32.44 a month over 24 months

which is about what my average bill is for my 4S at the moment!

And its being delivered on the 19th...

Happy with that!

I was just very surprised as I don't recall it being like that with my 5. I want to get away from always upgrading just as the new model comes out so I want to wait a few months. Nothing is wrong with my 5 except battery life so I've splashed out on a mophie battery case. I carry my ipad retina mini with me everywhere anyway so with a decent data allowance and battery life I can tether to that. I will get the 6 but sometime next year.

I'm not one to upgrade every year. I upgrade when my contract allows. It just so happens that when I took my initial contract out on my iPhone 4 it's end date pretty much coincided with the release of the iPhones after that. I missed the 4s, and the 5s, and it's highly likely that I'm going to miss the 6s as well.
 
Ordered an iPhone 6 Plus. Went on a new contract with Vodafone.

Before I was paying £31 a month for my iPhone and £15 for my iPad. A total of £46 for 100 mins, unlimited texts and 5GB data combined.

Going to cancel my iPad plan and sell the Air and replace it with a wifi iPad.

New contract is £43.50 for unlimited minutes/messages and 4GB of data. The 6 plus is costing £150 upfront.

Expecting the 6 plus to replace my iPad to some extent so that's why I'm selling the 32 cellular air and going to buy a wifi 16 ipad refurb
 
Actually went as far as calling Apple helpline because my confirmation email still hasn't arrived, but they said it's all fine. Silicone case is not arriving till October though. Need to go and see if Brodit are doing an iPhone 6 holder yet for my car.

I couldn't return an iPad bought online to a store a couple of months ago. Returns were very easy though - you emailed TNT with a code Apple provided and they collected it. Very easy.

My grey 64gb 6 and silver 64gb 6+ both seem to have gone through at just after 8.30 this morning.

It's a good service, can't dispute that, but sometimes it would be easier to take an item back to a store, at a time that was convenient to you, rather than having to make sure somebody was about for the courier.
