Thanks both, didn't know about this service. How does it work? Check avail - buy - arrange for pick up? Sorry about the dumb question!

You check availability , then reserve , pick a time slot for collection, then buy in store.
 
Kids down so can finally open it!

Ah no.. Dinner first... Will have to wait a bit longer..

Ahh lovely case! I was going to order an Apple one but held off due to the October shipping times! :rolleyes: My iPhone was dropped with me at 12:58 by a UPS guy that seemed, well lets say very busy! He said that everyone was very quick to answer their doors this morning! :D

Wont be fully decommissioning the 5s until I have a case and screen protector, hopefully they turn up soon! Also got insurance all sorted so not long until I can start using the 6+ for real! 64gb seems huge though!

Happy for everyone who got phones today! And good luck to all those waiting, hope they come early like they did for us! :apple:

Sounds very cool, worth staying up tonight.

I accidentally dropped my iPhone 4 (in the toilet!) yesterday, so am without a phone...was going to buy an iP6 anyway but I was going to wait a couple of months for the mess to calm down a bit...but this Reserve and Pick up could be the trick.
 
Fingers crossed for you!

Thank you!

I tried on Saturday and Sunday nights with no luck! 3rd time lucky?! I'm also hoping to reserve one cause I've just decided to go for the grey over the silver, (preordered silver, estimated 13th - 20th oct)

My work colleague (who sits next to me) got her gold 6+ on Friday and brought it in today... I love the size, I can't wait to get my hands on it! She doesn't like the size and now wants the 6!
 
So to the 10th Oct and beyond crew, do you think there will be any movement soon? I am going to ban myself from checking order status every 5 mins so I need something to keep me occupied..

One more question, sorry. Can you arrange for a pick up on let's say Wednesday or Thursday, or does it have to be the day after? Because I can't make it tomorrow...

I reckon it'll change to Preparing For Dispatch sometime this week!

It's only to reserve same day so tonight from midnight will be for pickup tomorrow

I'm praying for that to happen, do you know is that when we can start tracking it? Flights and UPS etc once it changes to preparing for dispatch?
 
Stock does not always update at midnight. Various Apple Stores here in Canada got a boatload of iPhone 6 Plus stock at about 5PM local time. There's a few free notification scripts out there, but if you don't feel like leaving your PC on 24/7, check out http://uk.iphonestock.ca
 
anyone having any WiFi issues with the 6?

Twice today I've left home and come back and my iPhone 6 hasn't reconnected to WiFi and when i go into the WiFi settings it just keeps searching?

Keeping having to power the phone down and then turn it back on to reconnect to WiFi.

I will definitely be taking pictures! I've been playing around with my mum's galaxy note 3 which I believe is slightly bigger. There's no doubt I'm going to love this phone :)

I'm not sure about movement on the order... Is your window the 10th - 17th? I only ordered after I found out phones4u had gone into admin on the evening of Sunday 14th :(

Yep 10th to 17th, i'm losing hope for movement anytime soon probably cos I keep refreshing the order status page, I need to limit it so I dont drive myself up the wall.. this thread keeps me half sane lol

I've checked my order status maybe 4 or 5 times in the last 2 days.. I think I should limit myself to once per day lol. Tracking it across the sea sounds fun though

Ah I feel your pain, I just want a shiny new iPhone..
 
Did you receive yours? I'm still waiting..

After they told me 3-4 weeks and that the only handsets they had in were 128gb I cancelled because EE could do me a deal where I get the contract for £29 a month but pay £380 for the phone, and they said I will get it within 7 days. Works out £10 more over the 2 years. Need it ASAP really because my iPhone 5 died out of the blue a week or so ago.
