Which is true, although, I did have a voucher for 75% off final value fees :) Still more than apple. Quite a shame considering the phone is less than a year old and is worth nearly £400 less than the retail price paid at the time ... :(

Nice, still £300 more than you would get if it was a android phone of the same age! :D;)

It is £1.99 if you want to track more than 3 orders and if you want push notifications: the first is quite unusual unless you're a business, the latter would take out all the fun you get refreshing it every 5 minutes.
And it offers an AppleWatch app as well, which is very nice
How are you adding UK mail to The parcel app?

I get nothing.
 
I'd get onto Apple chat if I were you...........it should be stating dispatched!
I've been speaking to them and all they say is that it's showing it should be delivered tomorrow! Also I'll get an email when it gets dispatched! Basically they're just repeating what I can already see on my order status page, don't think they know any more than that!! Bet they're getting sick of people asking 'where's my new iPhone' all the time lol
 
When do UK Mail let you know about a time slot? Late tonight or morning of delivery?

I believe it is early tomorrow morning, but you will get a text tonight saying a package is being delivered tomorrow (by tonight, I mean midnight). But I'm not 100% sure. They will probably start early tomorrow since they have a lot of delivering to do, I expect a text with a time slot around 6-9 when the item is loaded onto the van as that's when you get the text.

How frustrating! Am sure they do get sick of people asking about when they will get their phone but it is part of their job (as long as we ask nicely) and I think this is a bit different when we are talking about tomorrow and its not showing as dispatched like everyone elses.
 
Up till now the ONLY retailer who sold "locks to first sim" sim free iPhones was CarPhoneWarehouse, this has changed with the John Lewis offer (perhaps they are sourcing stock via CPW).
John Lewis had already been doing the same on their iPhone 6/6+ too

I see that JL have updated the colour to rose gold today. Last night they were calling it pink :oops:
It was always Rose Gold for me even last night, but I only looked at the 6s not the 6s+?
Loving the Parcel app. Can't remember who it was here who first recommended it, but thank you!

The push notifications are great. It's far better than the Deliveries app (which doesn't even support DPD or UK Mail properly!)

Discovered it a few months ago and I love it too :D.
In case you haven't noticed, when the tracking details are up in the app you can also ask siri "remind me about this later/tomorrow" and it'll add it to the reminder app.
Wasn't aware of that, thanks!
 
Is it just a stronger version of the Taptic Engine in the Apple Watch? I love the natural feeling vibration of the Apple Watch.

I don't have an Apple Watch but it's similar to the force touch trackpad where it's an illusion that it clicks.
 
Had a look on the DPD website and it seems the options we might(or does every delivery definitely have them?) have are to change to pre-10:30 delivery or pre-noon delivery; does anyone know how much this would cost? Depending on the timeslot I'm given I will upgrade unless it's going to come before noon.
 
Hi everyone!

Just wanted some opinions on whether or not my expected delivery window of 12-19th October for the iPhone 6s Plus 64gb rose gold will improve or not? Ordered on the 15th September from Apple's website and that's the dates it gave me. So far no change, but I was also wondering if anyone else has had these dates given to them and seen them improve since? I'll probably end up just going to a store and buying one next week if there's no change...


I first ordered gold 6s at 8:30 uk time on 12 sep and was given delivery on 25th but changed it on 13 sep to rose gold and was given 6oct -12oct which changed to 30sep-06 oct yesterday. Hope I receive before 30th.. cant wait.

Well I'm still hopeful I'll get a dispatch email tonight!! They've charged my debit card and I don't think they would have if it wasn't going to be dispatched pretty soon??
 
I had a look at the tracker reference O2 told me over the phone now showing on the tracker fro UK mail as collected and due date 25/09/15 next day. Does this mean I am likely to get tomorrow?
 
Spoke to apple and they've refunded me. I'll go get one from the apple store as they have them all in stock now (didn't when I ordered). They said I should contact them when it does turn up to return it? Think they'll enforce? (Cheeky I know!)
If they've refunded you on the basis you will return the item then I'd assume they will charge you for it again if you never send back
