UK iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus Thread

Kissaragi said:
According to a very rude live chat CPW agent they wont be selling the iPhone 6 sim free. But she was so dismissive and rude that who knows whats actually true. Seems like Currys have taken over customer service at the CPW unfortunately.

As mentioned up thread, just get them from CPW on Three. Three will unlock it instantly and for free.

id love to have it! missing spotify after my trial ended!

is it difficult to set up the US account? would it mean i have to buy everything from US store

Nope, you don't actually have to make any purchase. I only had one to purchase US TV shows as they aired in the States.

If you go to the US store, and click the button to download a free app - it will let you create an account without having to add in a credit card. Sign up as normal, but put in a US address (I usually just use a hotels address).

Once that's done, just sign in to the US store on your phone and iTunes Radio should be available! Then, you can sign out and sign into your UK account to make any purchases. :)

Excellent! When I switch back to uk store will the radio option disappear
 
Does anybody think the official silicon cases will be available easily on launch week or likely to sell out everywhere?
 
Kickstand case for the iPhone 6 Plus

I've got a Plus on order but this time I reckon a kickstand-type case is pretty essential (considering the size of the display). Anyone recommend any kickstand cases for the iPhone 6 Plus (or can recommend an existing line for the 5S that might be released for the 6)?

Ordered 6+/128Gb/SG with MB leather case at 8:40 direct from Apple website.

FK serial number, FK factory, Wk36 manufacture.

Just got a tracking number for the case, phone 'Preparing for Dispatch' delivery for 19th.

Woohoo!

Hi peeps!



I managed to bag myself 2 128GB Space Grey iPhone 6 Plus' by reservation at the London Regent Street store for collection on the 19th. Both of these are SIM free. I'm hoping that these are guaranteed as long as I make my time slot?



I am currently on a SIM only, monthly rolling contract with EE. My question is, If I want to, can I decide to take out a contract with EE, keep my phone number and still take a way my new iPhone? I can't see any problem with it from an EE point of view but will Apple tell me that as I selected SIM free at the time of reservation then thats how I have to take it away? Its not a big problem but it may be useful to have the choice.



Thanks.

I don't know about the SIM thing but I spoke to Apple today about my reserved phone and they said "for that hour the phone is yours" so as long as you stick to your allotted time your phone is guaranteed.

GOOD to know!!
 
Got iphone 6 and applecare+ on same order, just received a dispatch email saying applecare+ has been shipped and shows iphone as also shipping with this order. Only a matter of time before iphone changes to shipped now I guess.
 
Evening! :D

Hope everyone is well! Unfortunately I didn't get around to buying one or managing to reserve one (Plymouth store seemed to have next to no Plus 64gb! :p) so will queue from the early hours on Friday and hope for the best! :D

Anyway, how do people find GiffGaff? Seen a £12 SIM-Only deal, and just wondered how you lovely lot rate them? :D

Thank you!

My last year iPhone 5s was problem free.
Fingers cross for a problem free iPhone would hate to wait around two weeks for a replacement phone.
 
I'm feeling rather stupid, ordered my 6+ with a silicone case in the same order, cancelled the case as it says its shipping in October. Anyone got any idea if this is going to affect delivery by 19th?

I've been using GiffGaff for a few years now, have found them to be really good. They're on O2 so coverage is the same, but I like the flexibility of the 30-day contracts plus they are very good value for money.
