I was speaking to an Apple Specialist on the phone and on chat today and they said that Reserve & Pickup in Store would be available from 12.01am on 20 September. Not sure as to how true that is though.

That is new information for me, sorry, I wasn't trying to discredit your words, just going on my previous nights of checking the website. Hopefully it is true and I can reserve one :)
 
Ukmail messed up and couldn't find my address so now I've spent 10 minutes giving them directions on the phone to be told oh it won't be today it'll be tomorrow between 7am-1pm I've wasted a whole day waiting for a delivery they knew they couldn't deliver
Did you phone them up to check delivery ETA?
 
Anyone's iPhone 6 having trouble holding on to a 4G connection? I normally get at least 3 bars on 4G indoors with my 5S. I'm only getting 4 bars on 3G now. I'm on the 3 network btw

On the phone with apple now
 
Hope it's correct

Me too, I want my phone already, my boyfriend already has his 6+ and I'm in love with it already... just need mine now!

Yeah.. I reckon you'll have your iPhone between 29th - 6th? What is your Order Status on Apples website at the moment? Processing items?

Processing yes, if I was to receive it between those dates, it would have to change to preparing monday ish right? I am not sure of how long they leave it at preparing to dispatch.
 
If you have your email - they take your details and its all done with apple type efficiency. you do need photo id though, but all in all a pretty smooth

Must depend on Apple Store, all I was asked for was my name, no email, no ID, no bank card.

I was in and out with my phone in about 3 minutes, I arrived at 11am by my watch and my receipt is time stamped as 11:02.

I ordered mine on Monday 15th, it was on 'Processing Items' until yesterday around 11:30am when it switched to 'Preparing For Dispatch'. Today it went to 'Dispatched' at about 2pm, about an hour later I could track it and it was actually shipped yesterday morning! :D It's currently in Shanghai waiting to be flown over to the UK.

Did you try resetting network settings?

Ah gives me hope, what model was yours? I ordered on 12th and got 3 to 4 weeks for my SG 64g 6 plus
 
After cancelling with Three over their unacceptable mess of a preorder/delivery (or lack of) I decided to order from Apple directly.

As expected, big waiting time, but oh well.

Processing Items - Delivery: 15th - 22nd October

Will go SIM only with Three this time.

Same date here for my Replacement Phone.
 
Interesting, I have just phoned Apple and the Irish Chap said yes, you will be receiving it tomorrow. He said UPS don't usually deliver on a Saturday, but they are flying from China / Korea tonight and landing at the terminals. The drivers are loading the vans straight from there and delivering them especially for Apple.

Phoned UPS CS and they said there was a recent update that Apple have asked for Saturday deliveries to get them out.

My email at 15:06 has not been corrected since? Perhaps I have been lucky?

Well that would make sense, UPS tracking said it will be forwarded to the local UPS facility. Hopefully their plans work! :apple:
 
Did you try resetting network settings?

Yeah tried most of the major troubleshooting steps including erasing completely and setting up as a new phone.
Just seems like the antenna is having lots of trouble holding the network steady.
Please don't let this be antennagate all over again

Not sure what to make of it tbh. My Irish chap said to ignore it lol. I guess we will know tomorrow! However it sounds plausible since he acknowledged they were in Korea. I haven't had a departure scan yet though
 
Funny, I called them and they said it was all set for tomorrow. And that it was due to a reallocation of stock? But I wouldn't see the change to my online order till the early hours... time will tell!

Fingers crossed, either way I can wait three days till after launch haha
 
Just spoke with apple and they said I wont be getting the iPhone on Saturday as apple don't do Saturday delivery and that i should ignore the email.

It is plausible you might get it tomorrow, I hope you do :)

I went for the iPhone 6 16GB in Silver for £539.00 which at the time of purchase was showing 7 - 10 days for dispatch but it happened it 3! :)

Ah nice :) well here is to me getting mine in a week or so I hope :)
