UK iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus Thread

Getting a bit nervous now, no confirmation email through after nearly two hours, can't log in to My Orders on either website or the app. :/
 
I ordered at 8:40am through the website, Silver iPhone 6 Plus 64GB with a delivery date of the 19th :)

Unless Apple allocate you UK stock there's no way on earth that will clear customs and be in your hand on the 19th. I'd have thought you'd have to pay the import tax too which would surely hold it up further.

do the US T-Mobile versons work on the correct 3G/LTE bands in the UK?

Last I looked a UK iPhone 5S didn't work on the correct US LTE bands for T-Mob US

Actually looking at the date format I guess the poster just posted in the wrong forum... I have never known any person in the UK use the date format of MM/DD
 
Should I assume something's wrong with my order? I ordered the minute it went through, a 6 and a 6+ , but it hasn't gone to processing status yet. Just says recieved
 
Anyone else see this?

Website doesn't but the app does

Nothing is wrong. They have received millions of orders and they take time to process. Sometimes it can take days to move to processing.

If he was any sort of decent businessman, he wouldn't be trying to make maybe £50-£100 per phone. That's so small-time it's laughable and makes him look like a bit of an idiot.

Obviously he will probably sell the phones on for a small profit. I personally hope he prices himself out or gets them stolen from him as that would make me laugh like a hyena.

Agreed, however some people may just look for a quick sale rather than a big buyer. Selling it on eBay is the biggest mistake ever. Even with tracked delivery, there are scumbag buyers to outdo the scumbag sellers, where the buyers claim that the package received was empty or had some random **** in it but not the item. I got scammed by a buyer when I sold him an old Sony Ericsson for 70 quid many years ago. eBay refunded him the money from my account. Since then, I stick to cheaper items online.
 
Mine is on received, but its normal I assume. I am not gonna panic... yet :p
 
finally answered my call after 2 hours and 20 mins!

will be delivered within 30 days! (time span given by apple apparently. hopefully on launch.

iPhone 6, 64GB, Space Grey

£90 (or £99 not sure :/) up front, £45.99 per month 2GB unlimited, just to give you an idea
 
Are you all waiting to see it turn to processing on the apple website?

I have received the email saying processing, is that the same? Currently stating delivered 19/9 in most areas.

Cant get into the orders on my account as like most others.

I got the email 8:47am

i will be hand delivering them around london once i sell them on ebay on the morning of launch day. i have a zone 1-6 annual travel card, so my travel costs are already paid for.
all it requires is bidders in london to bid on my phones. i will go to them. i make it quite clear in my ebay postings.

and i was just asking as its likely there are people who have re-sold iphones previously on launch day.

You speak about your entrepreneurial skills. However, once you have taken the time to collect all the phones, travel round London to deliver them, paid ebay and paypal fees, risked potential problems with dodgy purchasers then you can use the experience to hone those skills.

Perhaps, once you have finished, you could work out your profit (or loss) per hour and let us know. I'd be interested to find out if you manage to beat what you would get paid stacking shelves in Tesco.

For the record, I like a deal and finance a holiday each year by working the best deals on various (legitimate) offers, but I would never touch these preorders to make some cash. Far too much trouble, and not something I would be happy doing ethically.

I'm the same. The money doesn't seem to be held either but we're with a crappy bank who doesn't make it easy to tell ! Since ordering my husband has ordered a costa which was 3p over the amount he was meant to have in his account (don't ask me why he insisted on having an empty account before transferring funds!)

So if that doesn't go through over 3p....OMG
 
Hi guys I have a question about getting a contract at the Apple Store:

So I have managed to reserve a 16gb iPhone 6+ but I wanted a 128gb would I be able to get the contract with the 16gb and then in a week when they have stock of the 128gb just go back to the shop pay them the extra and give back the 16gb?

Cheers
