Anyone who reserved online called beforehand to check if they still have it for collection? Managed to snag a 64GB 6+ for collection between 7-8pm, don't want to have a wasted journey.
 
I guess you're right but it's so frustrating and the fact that everyone can just pick one up from store and I can't :(

I get the frustration trust me! Patience is the key i'm afraid

Same boat as everyone I think....:( and good that you switced to Tea:D

Yeah I'm trying to keep hope, i'm working from home so might try and get a reservation throughout the day if not then maybe midnight if I'm awake lol. Tea is not the same as coffee though :p

It is best to ring up anyways as some people have lost out due to 'glitches' in the apple system.

Patience.. You have no patience!! Ah thats good then :) don't get distracted on here, no slacking on your work :D. My closest one is Leicester.. Dad could drive me but cost too much in fuel :D
 
any movement on Three iPhone 6 +??

Hi,

Just wondering if anyone had any good (!) experience of being notified by Three of their iPhone 6+

I'm waiting (im)patiently for the store to call and tell me that it has arrived earlier than the 4th October they quoted me on Monday (after being told last week it would be the 19th Sept)

I have zero patience! I'm gonna be on and off, so don't think you'll miss out on my craziness! Leeds is half an hour on train so not too bad if I do get a reservation.
 
Just a question about reserving, how it works? Do the phones get delivered in to a certain store first and then they becomes available for reservation on line? When do you get charge for it when you reserve it (probably not) or when you collect it?
 
Mine still says "Your parcel has arrived at your nearest depot" and has done since 0710 this morning.

I hope DPD send out an afternoon van from the depot or something.

Check this website for the store you can collect it from..

http://iphone6stockchecker.com

Then click on this one

https://reserve.cdn-apple.com/GB/en_GB/reserve/iPhone/availability

They will give you a time to pick it up, you then you pay when you get there.

Clear?

I know you don't lmao, thats why you're so crazy. Yeah I'll be here and there so won't be here all day :p. I guess that is not bad, unless I reserve all the 6+'s :D
 
You wouldnt dare :p but man its better for my sanity if I get my phone ASAP..

You're welcome :)

I'll bet you a 6+ 64GB Space Gray that I would dare :p. And yes, it would be a lot better for your sanity if you had your phone.

Radio silence from my local store. When I called to chase them, I was told that the 128GB iPhone "hadn't even been released by Apple yet".

<sigh>
 
Did anyone get a free case for being cancelled on last Saturday?

Few people mentioned it, but none have confirmed

Yep, basically I reserved 2 iphones on saturday. One at Meadowhall (local), one at Watford, London (mental).

On the way to Watford, around Peterborough, Meadowhall phoned and said they were really sorry and wanted to send me a £25 voucher. I made it clear I wasn't going to take the reservation anyway, but they insisted I get the voucher anyway. Meadowhall also said Watford had the same issue, but I'd need to call them to sort.

Tried to - couldn't get through.

Decided to try for Watford anyway, so carried on. Literally outside intu Watford, the senior manager called to tell me the bad news. I explained I'd come a long way, tried to be annoyed but polite, and said I'd take any Plus and if not spot on, just return it within 14 days. He was happy with this, and said he'd ring around.

Went in, and he said he'd got a 128gb plus from some emergency stock which he would sell me, give me £25 off it and any case I wanted. Awesome!

----

Since then, as described here I've switched to a 6 non-plus, and amazingly, and awesomely Meadowhall agreed to switch my goodwill plus case for a iphone 6 case (no receipt so had to manager who was fine!)

I know we've come to expect it - but thats seriously awesome from apple, and you wouldn't get it anywhere else.

I ended up with £50 voucher in total, and a free case. So I effectively paid £559 for a 64gb iphone and leather case!
