Thanks. Just tried to change it but can't seem to find an option to swap from home delivery to reservation. I'll try again in a few days.
Got a tip for us?

Just asked them, charge a month in advance!
Seems daft to me, surely you charge after first month then do a final bill at the end of the contract. o2 Billing and accounts must be sniffing glue
I booked mine in with them an hour after the Apple launch. With the 5% code I am getting £462 for a gold 6plus 128GB Unlocked.
It was due to them tomorrow, 24th, but they have extended the offer until 1st October.
So far Im mega impressed with them.
Dont worry. I remember vaguely last year that you should get a text through at midnight saying you will be getting a package tomorrow then in the morning you will get a delivery time slot
My sister was told pretty much the same thing. Then she was told she was one of the first few 100 people to pre-order and that there's a strong possibility that she'll get it on Friday.
If that's the case, I don't know why they estimate the delivery date to be 9/10 through to the end of the month. Odd.
What was the code bud?
I've been messed about by mazuma so going to give them a try.
Cheers
What a suprise, just keep waiting. They give large delivery time frames so that they ensure they don't under promise so that you're not upset. Stop bugging them on chat because I'm sure they're sick to death of these phone calls.
I had a text from EE saying there would be a slight delay on my delivery of up to 21 days!
I hope this is an error but not impressed. Having said that I have my apple online order and reservation slots for Friday so I will still get a new iPhone.

So far so good with O2 retail this year.
I went into the Milton Keynes store when it opened on 12th and pre-ordered a 6S Plus 128GB on refresh. I got a text and an email from them immediately saying they would contact me when it was ready for collection.
I've received a text and an email from them this morning saying it is ready for collection, and I can have it on 25th.

Extra5 did the trick for me. Others here seem to still be having success with it.
When you reserve you pick a timeslot when you want to pick it up.
So for launch we got to pick a 15 minute slot e.g 8am to 8:15 and the latest o think was 8:45pm i think?? But yeh you specify time you want to pick up then pick it up at that time. If you miss it or are late it goes back into reservation next day
LOL
Oh God, o2 are really loving the jab to the gut.
I called up to ask about the billing of my account, the switch to the new tariff and how they'll handle the pro-rata. The bloke on the phone asked me whether it was an iphone and what colour and then said:
"There's no guarantee you'll get it on Friday"
He followed that up by explaining it was dependent on how early in the day I ordered it (I stated 'first thing on the 12th') and then he said "Oh, maybe you will". He continued: "We have to tell customers this". Sounds like they're persisting in setting expectations for all just to cover off the potential for a delayed arrival. Damage limitation. Added: "You won't believe the reaction of some people when they don't get their phone when they expect it to arrive". I laughed out loud and lied telling him, "I'm not one of those people".
Did say emails should go out on Thursday night.
I'm done now. Too much grief talking to them. Mixed messages everytime. I'll cradle my tracking code instead.

Well they gave it to me in chat....I took a photo of the screen to keep the number.
No way to order one direct from Apple, although they will have walk in stock. Only chance for one of those is to queue up early from say 2am, 4am till stores open at 8am!
Depending on how busy stores are and no one knows how much stock they have.
Carphone should but I think you will have to get there REALLY early but they will get locked to the first network you put it in.
If I am to queue up somewhere I'd do so at an Apple store to get a fully unlocked one.
When you got your reservation receipt, what date did it say it would be available for?
I did the same as you but my deposit receipt said expected 5/10/15

I remember this too. However, again if I remember correctly, someone was told by UK Mail that due to the increased workload in delivering iPhones on launch day, they cannot guarantee the delivery time slot and it should be ignored. Some people missed their delivery which happened outside the slot they were given.
