UK iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus Thread

Well as from 22:15 hrs last night , my 64GB SG 6 Plus is still in transit from Pudong Airport. I have no idea what the next destination will be.

Now this is either the longest flight in history , or it's not updating.

Anyone in same situation ?

Regards

James

Going from my own recent/current experience, you'll get notice of it arriving in Arnhem, Holland, very soon. It'll probably stay there for a day or two, then the tracker will say that it's arrived at the KG4 depot. Then a few more days until it's arrives at your local depot, then a day or two before being 'Out For delivery'.*

*All estimates. Times between status updates may vary. ;)
 
A new day, a new look at the reservation site at midnight, then 4am, then just now.

Unavailable.

The stores must have stock for walk in customers on a daily basis no....?
 
Finally managed to reserve a 64gb yesterday at Stratford store. Was checking randomly throughout day when some appeared around lunchtime.

What time did you check because I've had the stock checker on constant updates and there wasn't any....

I received my reservation email at 11:38. Was literally checking every 30 mins or so on the stock checker site
 
Apologies in asking but are online orders which are currently on a 3/4 week waiting list paid for in advance?
I know putting the payment on credit card can give you a bit of room to receive the goods before actually paying your card but at 3/4 weeks that puts it past all pending payments.

Debit Card - payment taken at point of order

Credit Card - payment taken at point of dispatch.

My order has only just arrived on my credit card, despite me placing the order on 13th Sept :)

I think I read somewhere (and I could be completely wrong) that the stock check site only shows if the have 5 or more devices in stock to reserve. Brent Cross was showing multiple 6+ yesterday when I checked in the morning, but they had all gone by early afternoon.

Apple reserve the money on your credit card at the time of order but don't actually take the payment until just before shipping.

Cheers guys :)
That makes perfect sense.
 
Has anyone got an order waiting with Three? They told me I'd get it on Friday and haven't heard from them, so quietly hopeful, but the shortages everywhere else are making me doubt them...
 
Vodafarce just sent me a bill for £500 for the phone I never asked for , this is getting crazy

Said DPD would text me and pick up the old one , haven't so far..:mad:

Anyone had any experience of this lot ??
 
Still waiting for my iPhone 6+ to even be dispatched, got sent an email from Apple last week saying "we are working on your order, your iPhone will be available to to ship between 13th and the 20th" still not had an email of dispatch. And when logging onto my account my order still says "processing"

Anyone else had this? and if so how long was it before you had your phone dispatched and then delivered to you?

Got a similar email this morning except I am the week after you....mine says dispatched in my order status though...its been a long wait
 
Wow, finally I have this thing in my hands and it's currently restoring via iTunes to 8.0.2.
This thing is GORGEOUS.
I hope all those who are still waiting, will get your devices soon!
I will now be spending the rest of the afternoon, geeking out massively and comparing various apps on both phones. :D

I have exactly this too. When did you order? Mine was put through on the 22nd September.

Update: Mine has just switched to Preparing for Dispatch!

Well, My 6Plus has apparently been sitting in the Arnhem Hub since Saturday, and it's apparently still there. :(
I'm sure TNT could deliver these things sooner, like UPS would, but they seem intent on going the full distance with these delivery times.

Mines is now in Arnhem too, is it likely to stay here a while then? Delivery estimated 21st (originally 20th)
