I got through at 10:25 ish, the guy sent me a text while I was on the phone but I haven't had an email confirmation yet.
The text wasn't like a normal text you get from EE, it looked like he copy and pasted what was on his screen
Oh not just a pittance then. Probably could have got a fair bit more depending on condition though.
I upgraded this morning to iPhone 6 plus 64gb - £99 upfront £48.99/24 month unlimited minutes and texts and 20gb data. They even offset the £99 and put it on my first bill so i payed nothing today.
Email confirmation will be sent within 24 hours, delivery on the 19th by DPD
Thanks.
My order is pre-order in store pick up with 02 so the chances of pin pointing my iPhone is unlikely, at least not until I get my iPhone.

Visa have said this week that they are working on bringing Apple pay to Europe and the UK.
Virgin Mobile don't offer 4G to consumers.
There's a business package, but that's offered by a different part of the business.
So whilst they may use "EE's" network, it will simply be the old 3G T-Mobile part of it, not 4G.
Was the Plus ever actually available in the UK for delivery on launch day?? As far as I could see, orders went to straight to delivery in 3-4 weeks as soon as the store came on line this morning and it was actually possible to log on. By contrast supplies in the US seem to have held out for several hours.....can't help but wonder if we limeys were allocated any Plus models at all...
I've a plus 64GB for delivery on 19th. Ordered it at about 08:35' email confirmation at 08:36. Preparing for dispatch now.
For those that are interested and have ordered direct with Apple heres the live flight info link for Hong Kong airport ,as my order starts to move i will update the routes being taken so you can follow yours.

Either way from my experience and from those I know EE's network leaves a lot to be desired for, especially where I live. It's quite shocking considering my house literally backs on some of it's major UK bases.
Perhaps, but O2 recycle is so easy! Put name and address in website. They send you a box. You send them phone only. 18 hours later £265 in your bank. No fees, no whiney eBay customers, and you get to keep all your cables, charger, headphones, box etc, all of which you can sell on eBay if you want to.
I ordered about 10:30 on the phone, bloke told me could be 30 days, but as I'd got through in the first couple of hours it was likely to be Friday, but wouldn't guarantee it. No text or email though, just a text survey about the quality of the call
And that is why you can't generalise
But how do the carriers justify their massive price increase?? My mrs is on currently iphone 5 with a £37 a month tariff which is 600 mins and all u can eat texts and data.....but the same tariff with the iPhone 6+ is suddenly £57 a month??? Both phones are priced the same at the time they were released.....that's what I don't understand......both were £699 on day 1. So why £20 a month increase??
On occasions where I've had launch day gadgets and they weren't already in the UK I could track from PVG. It will be interesting to see where they start off this time. I'm guessing that a few pallets full must be at Syncreon Hinckley already.
Ordered iphone 6 16gb on EE through phones for you at 0830, delivery 19/9, no upfront cost and 50ppm, 20gb plan

SNAP. I got 6 and 6+ both 64gb, space grey coming on the 19th and my order was about 0830ish .
Ordered the same as you and had my confirmation email at 8.43 am and I got 7-10 days to dispatch. Gutted as I swear it was showing 19th before I got to the checkout.
I so can not make up my mind. I have pre ordered a 6 plus in an EE shop but reserved a 6 in the Apple Shop in Braehaed.
6plus would be with a contract, the 6 outright and I would need to move to a sim only deal. What's the highest data sim only with EE?
The contract is 50 quid with 20gb data. So far ee want 199 up front, but apparently that's not set in stone.
Money wise i should get the 6 outright, but somehow i fancy the 6 plus....
Guess I am lucky i have the option on the 19th...

Fair enough, everyone's experience is subjective, but haven't RootMetrics just awarded EE the Best Mobile Provider award?
Also, when I say EE, I mean 4G, as EE don't have a 2/3G network.
Last year they started off at Shenzen which is the Asian-Pacific cargo hub for UPS,then on to Hong Kong.Some then flew direct to Cologne others to Cologne via Dubai,then from Cologne direct to East Midlands Airport and then to Syncreon Hinkley for distribution.
Taken from elsewhere.
"Syncreon Parcel Delivery is not a carrier but a distribution holding company and the delivery is actually being carried out by UK Mail or UPS locally."
