iPhone 6 in silver, 64gb ordered on 26th September and delivered yesterday.

Slight delivery hiccup in that the TNT website said 'unsucessful delivery, no-one home', even though my other half was in. No card through door. Ended up googling my nearest depot and asking them about it - they did have it and said I could come and pick it up that evening, which I did. They were very helpful and also said they would 'have a word' with the driver, although it's possible he got the house mixed up with next door, happens quite a lot as the numbering is not what people expect.
 
Mine iPhone 6 16 GB SG ordered also on 26th, was delivered today with UPS. Now 20 more days till I go back home :)
 
The annoying thing for me is I've had the chance to reserve the phone i want at least 2 times now since it originally went from processing to preparing to dispatch on Thursday, and now at this stage i cant cancel the online order and dont really have the cash to fork out another £700 whilst i wait for the online order to arrive and return it.

Is it life or death getting this phone??
 
Did I say it was life and death? No I said it was annoying. Apple have had my money for well over a week now and still haven't dispatch something that I have paid for


Money is taken as soon as order goes to being processed status.

My wife also has had being processed for 5 days.

It's a pain but not life or death. The phone will get here sooner rather than later.
 
Just reserved a 6 plus 64GB gold from the touchwood center in birmingham/solihull... will sell it on when my sealed 128gb arrives I think :D

Not for me it didn't payment was authorised Monday last week, cleared on Wednesday, ordered the phone on 13th September.

Apple have taken no money from me yet.

Been preparing for dispatch since the 29th sept.

Very annoyed that I can just reserve at my local(ish) store 50 miles away. Whilst mine still hasn't even shipped...it better be worth it.
 
Anybody waiting for EE? I ordered on the 24th, email said 7 days, recived a text last Wednesday a week later, saying next 7 days, I want my new phone!

Same here, ordered exact same day and also got the same text last Wednesday, I hope it comes this week.

I ordered my 6 Plus case and phone at the same time, in the same order.

I think I remember reading here about the latter items in a joint delivery, not sending notifications of changes, is this true? If so, then my iPhone could arrive literally any time between now and the 17th, with no change in status throughout. :(
 
I ordered a iPhone 6+ on 20th September and it's still stuck at "processing items" i wonder if its worth calling Apple. But then again, i have read that they are having trouble keeping up with the demand for the 6+ because more people are buying it than they had anticipated. Apparently 60% of all sales.
 
FWIW, some Apple stores are allowing "walk-in" customers to get an iPhone now that supplies have improved marginally. Worth an ask, any member of staff can look up availability on their handset things and get you started.

This availability doesn't seem to be tied to the online system either, my store apparently had none available but in store most models could be brought on the day.

I ordered the same. Got told it would come last week. Phoned again and got told this week. It's ridiculous. The customer service know nothing. The annoying thing is when I ordered, the website stated delivery within 7 days. It's been nearly 14, and they STILL list the phone as delivery within 7 days. Though the gold and silver model are delivered within one day.

I ordered on the 12th and was stuck on 'Processing Items' for 20 Days!
Just Went to 'Preparing for Dispatch' on Friday, now i'm stuck there!
