Did somebody say that iPhone's lock to the first SIM card network if they were bought from Dixons travel at airports?

Is there any prove for this? Because I own a iPhone 6 bought from Dixons Travel at Heathrow and I'm about to sell it to Envirofone as unlocked...
 
It's not just the waiting, it's ruined my evening plans. The guy was a five minute walk away and I still have four hours to wait.

To be fair, their scheduling seems like it could do with some improvement. DPD delivered a package for my next door neighbour at 8:30am, my iPhone is coming via DPD between 16:30-17:30. Interestingly though, the 'Where has my package been' on DPD's website, shows it checking into Nottingham depot twice, the second time just after 7am. Wonder if they just ran out of space on the van that came by at 8:30 and I was just unlucky.

Go to Apple support online and call or online chat them. They'll tell you if it's unlocked or not. Apple has a database.

(Alternatively use iphoneimei.info but that's often not accurate)

Dixons is CarPhoneWarehouse...

Look at the bottom of a CPW webpage:

They're most likely using the same stock as Carphone Warehouse now so I'd say it's extremely likely.
 
My iPhone 6 I got from carphone warehouse was NOT locked to anything, used a Three and EE sim card in that phone..
 
After restoring via iTunes backup as per, my glorious 6s Plus is syncing...

It feels a little(but noticeably) heavier, which I like, and the aluminium feels a tad more grippy, but that could be purely down to it being brand new and the added weight making the device sit better in my hand.
My existing cases fit perfectly, with no noticable issues.

We're sorry...
Our driver has met with an unexpected delay and will be with you soon.

We apologise for any inconvenience caused..
 
My uk mail (direct from apple) delivery has been out since 7:44am. Its been stuck on delivery number 31 ( i'm 92) for two hours. I've currently got a 15:51 - 16:51 slot. Are a lot of people missing their UKMail slots and is the delivery tracker updating regularly. Quite frustrating to say the least!

I got the same update at 10.45 am

So I emailed them and was told:

"Thank you for your query.

I am happy to advise that your consignment is out on the van for delivery today.

Our normal delivery times are 7am - 6pm Mon-Fri, 7am-12pm Saturdays.

Kind regards,
Customer Care"

Probably a generic reply but I'm guessing I should expect a knock on the door within the next 3 hours . . .

Even with locked phones, you get some flexibility because of network sharing by providers and if I'm not mistaken, Three use the EE network (or vice versa).

After 10:30 this morning, the map and delivery tracking disappeared for me. I still had the slot 13:38-14:48 and they delivered in between (14:05)
 
Anyone know what time UPS class as end of day? Hope they do not mean 12 tonight! its 3pm and still not here.
 
Just got my new iPhone delivered by DPD. I rip open the plastic package and inside is a ...... Samsung S6 !!!

I rush out and catch him rushing back with another package in his hand, my iPhone thankfully.

Of all the things to be given wrongly!!

UKMail just delivered my other 6s to my work an hour ahead of expected time. Were a few more sitting at reception to be collected! Plus it is still showing as the driver is 16 stops away......

Ouch! Thankfully you got your iPhone, in the end.
