UK iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus Thread

I'm thinking of jumping ship from Vodafone to EE. I'm on sim only. £26 for unlimited calls and text and 4G with 6GB data. Don't think they can beat that?

If your eligible for an upgrade like I was, they offered me 50% off Vodafone red Unlimited calls and texts and 4gb of 4G data all for £13.50 per month, they also did the same for the mrs.
If your happy with your reception negotiate with them, they don't want to lose customers.

I haven't taken up their offer though as Vodafone coverage is VERY poor where I live and am moving to 3 network which has great coverage where I live and work. I will get 600mins unlimited texts and 1GB of 4G data for £10 per month which will meet my requirements and it's capped. So no unexpected surprises.

3 network also offer for £15p
4 GB data
600 mins
Free calls to 0808/0500 numbers
All-you-can-eat texts

I managed to snag a silver 64gb iPhone 6 reservation at Manchester Arndale last night, collecting at 1pm today. The reservation system appeared around 12:30am. I was after SG but by the time I got to the actual reserve screen the 64gb had gone. Ah well, white's good enough for me. But it appears they do refresh at around 12:30am so that's probably the time to check.

My order status on apple.com has changed to:

We're Sorry.
Something went wrong with your request. Please try again later.

Hmm....

I also just got the same issue here. Did you resolve it? What's wrong with our request?
I ordered 6+ 128gb space grey. The expected delivery date is Oct 29-Nov 5.

I'm getting the same, I think it's a site issue and nothing to do with our orders :) * crosses fingers for an updated status later on*

While i'm waiting for my iPhone 6+ to be dispatched, i have been thinking about Apple Care+ does anyone think it's worth getting? i have never had it before because i'm careful with my devices, but with the iPhone 6+ being a lot bigger, and the fact that i commute, there is a chance for accidents to happen.



It's £79 i think for Apple Care+ and after chatting with an Apple rep, i can add it after my phone arrives by calling Apple Care.

I've bought it. If you can afford it it's worth it for piece of mind. It runs from the date you purchased your phone.

That's what I was thinking, more for peace of mind. It last 2 years doesn't it? And covers accidental damage.
 
Apples Order Status site is back up, but I'm seeing nothing I have ordered on it, even product which I have received in the last week.

What's everyone else seeing?
 
Still seeing "We're Sorry" here

Not had a problem with EE, but think I'm technically with T-Mobile since it still exists as a billing brand... or something. It's complicated.

But then I've not had to contact them. Can't be worse than "3" for customer service surely?
 
Ahhh where has my order gone? Apple app is saying no orders in last 18 months, last time I looked my 6 plus was preparing for dispatch
 
Anyone know if Apple Stores in London are getting non-reserved stock of new iPhones in at all? I ordered a 6 Plus which is due in 3 weeks but wondered if there's any point trying to get one in the retail stores in the meantime and cancelling.

I fancy doing that myself, I'm sure most of who are fed up watching Apples crashing Order Status Update site are in fact !

Impossible to tell whats coming into stores anywhere though.....
 
Just a heads up to people ordering online. I ordered my iPhone 6 along with a leather case from the Apple Store online nearly two weeks ago. I was on holiday at the time, and elected to have the items delivered together once available rather than in separate deliveries, as I didn't want the case to come while I was away.

Now that my order has been dispatched, it appears that the two items come from a separate location and will be 'merged' together before final delivery - not only does the delivery take ages (scheduled for the 13th, dispatched on the 3rd Oct) but you don't appear to be able to track the progress on UPS like others have been able to.

TL;DR: don't opt to have your iPhone and case delivered in one delivery, as it adds time and you can't track progress.

Argh, just got a dispatch e-mail from Apple - with delivery for tomorrow. Surely that's impossible? (unless replacements ship from inside the UK??)

Now I somehow need to arrange another 'working from home' day... :mad:

Same here two replacement phones was shipped for next day delivery via ukmail. Funny thing is Apple still hadn't pick up the two faulty device phoned up Apple helpline on Friday morning saying couriers are overloaded and busy.
 
Does anyone know how long the delivery time is once you get the dispatched email from Apple?

Need to order a 3 pay monthly SIM but holding out until right before the phone comes.
 
iPhone 6 64Gb

Anyone in Northern Ireland looking for an iPhone 6? I have a 64Gb iPhone 6 SG that I am going to return to the Apple Store in the next couple of days for a refund. The phone is perfect and in mint condition but I'm going to stick with my 5S for now.

Needless to say, I'm not looking for profit here - just looking to help someone out.
 
My tracker hasn't been updated since 2nd October,
Still says at KG4 on tnt website,
Apple tracker and tnt still says delivery on the 6th which is tomorrow,
But really doubting that now
