I might take hubbie's 4 to the store and trade in if I can get £25 off my reservation. If he doesn't mind, of course! The battery doesn't last very long but am sure it will keep charge from our house to the Apple Store!
Got a tip for us?

Does anyone have any experience with recycling phones through www.green-cycle.co.uk? They seem to offer much better rates when compared to Envirofone. I had already sold off my iPhone 6 Plus for a good rate before the keynote. I have an old 8 Gig 5c and was looking to sell it off too. While Envirofone offers around £95 (with the 5% offer), green-cycle is quoting £112, which seems too good. Hence thought of checking with anyone else who might have dealt with them.
I also got the email from Envirofone to extend until 28 September, which is great.
Just found out I can upgrade now (I thought it was in October).
Anyway, Just upgraded to iPhone 6S+ 64GB Space Grey with all you can eat data, calls and text.
Comes 9th October. CAN NOT WAIT.
Upgrading from a iPhone 5S 32GB so I can very excited
!
Oh also, Three offered me 2 years of warranty for free rather than the 1 year. Woot.

I would be keen to know this also, since they appear to be offering around £30 more than envirofone for mine. Although given that their standard is "working" Id be tempted to sell privately. My 5s is in near-mint condition with a tempered glass screen cover, a leather case and an otterbox preserver. I could maybe get a few quid more for it.
Time will tell.
I can't see the space for a code, I'm on the mobile site I assume as I'm on my phone.
It's right at the end of the end just before confirmation I done it on my phone.
Anyone going to the Eldon Square (Newcastle) store on launch day?
I have mine reserved at 8:00 am.

My credit card available balance has gone from 10,000 to 9,999 I assume they've tested the water!
Had a hold of £0.00 show up as pending from Apple. I'll say that again, £0.00 lol
Same, i have a pending payment to Apple of £0.00 haha
Whoo hoo just got another email offering an extension to 28th. YES PLEAASE!!!!!! Hadn't actually phoned yet.
As an aside am currently on train from Edinburgh to Manchester and there is no wifi
lol nice one I wonder how many people have took them up on their offer
Ive just looked them up didn't have the 6+ 64gb so checked out the 128gb and i see you get a pound if you include the charger so I selected yes and turns out the are just going to give me a quid
sure thats not right 
Been considering whether o2's 30GB data plan on refresh is a worthwhile option. https://www.o2.co.uk/shop/tariff/ap...-b52288bcc48d&planId=&contractType=paymonthly
Seems they will let you trade your iPhone back to them in 12 months and in return they'll settle the device side of the plan and you can upgrade to the new iPhone.
I've been buying my phones outright for the past few years and using a sim only contract with 3 as this works out a few hundred pound cheaper in the long run but I must admit forking out a lump sum for a new phone is a bit of a task!.

ha ha...so basically you're selling the charger for a quid and sending the phone for freeIve just looked them up didn't have the 6+ 64gb so checked out the 128gb and i see you get a pound if you include the charger so I selected yes and turns out the are just going to give me a quid
) There could be some issue on their system. Try ringing them up...I see a number listed.I can assure you, for my non-child hands, the 6+ is uncomfortably large to the point that holding it one handed, I cannot stretch my thumb across the screen to the far side.
This is the tariff I have signed up to but paid £120 up front towards it for the 64gb plus space grey. I have also managed to extend Mazuna so I can get £390 for old iPhone 6 plus 64gb unlocked.
So it turns out I was wrong about people not wanting the S models as everybody would have upgraded last year. Apparently pre-orders are going to top 10m. Not shabby
Have a feeling Asia has a big part to play with it though.

The chances are the stock is much higher as the case is easier to make than the 5 with its chamfer edge plus they are already tooled up from the last model.
China is also getting in on the release day action so the only people buying are actual iPhone users and not scalpers hoping to cash in.
