Yeah I'm in the same boat but only for the weekend.Well I'll be workingbut I have a week off a few days after. I'm thinking about leaving it in its box till I can properly have time to set it up etc
I'm not too sure would have to look on the website. I think it's like 24 hrs though
Me and the Mrs have next Friday off work for our phones lol!!!!
No judgement here mate
AppleCare is £109 and £50 something excess I think? Also on the spot replacement. I'll go that way I think personally
Never damaged my phones in the past. I possibly would have got Applecare before but not it has gone up to £109. It seems quite excessive especially when you have to pay a £50 excess. But I do think that screen replacements will cost a lot more this year. Hopefully this year won't be the year I break my phone.
If you find anything like that please drop a link in here, best I've seen with EE is £13.99 (12 months) for 2000 mins, unlimited texts and 2GB data. I've been looking for a deal around £15 with as much data as possible.
I posted this earlier in the thread:
Here is a review of the old case (skip to 1:27):
And here is the Amazon listing for the new case: http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B010MVJS1I
Look at the difference in the buttons. Instead of creating a new listing for the new case, it appears they've just changed last year's - so all the reviews are from last year's case too.

O2 doesn't give you an on the spot replacement unless it's been lost, stolen or had liquid damage.
I prefer carrier insurance because it covers you for everything not just damage or device failure outside of the warranty period.
I think the bonus of apple care plus is the on the spot replacements and better customer service.
Those deals are most likely exclusive to people who are renewing with EE, you're not going to find something like that if you're wanting to join EE as a new customer. If you're renewing then call EE and just voice that you're a loyal customer and wanted to know if they can offer you any deals.
Erm....I ordered this case and it has the same style buttons as shown in the video? But the front of the packaging has a gold sticker saying "Compatible with iPhone 6S Plus/6 Plus"
Now a bit uncertain if it's going to fit?

err... no! This would be ideal for me, can you post a link?
BTW: EE advertise prices without VAT, so this'll probably be £15 inclusive.
That a good deal atleast EE give out deals. Three on the other hand don't even care.Try GiffGaff goody bags
But you'll be wishing you had it to get an on the spot replacement of something happens though right?
It's a gamble like any insurance.
Me, I like to be safe in the knowledge that I smash/submerge my phone, I can get an in the spot replacement.
If people are happy to pay less and wait a week or more to get theirs repaired/replaced, then that's cool too.
The other thing that I don't like/want is my phone going away for repair if I did something to it and it coming back repaired by a non Apple repairer and I then have a genuine warranty issue that Apple won't honour because it's been opened up and has had non Apple parts fitted.
That to me is not worth the risk of not buying Applecare.
Just my 0.02p worth.
When should we expect the Preparing for Shipment status change?
I preordered on the DE website with delivery on the 25th.

I would say next Tuesday/Wednesday if the phones are in the UK. If they are coming from China I would say late this week sometime. But I am just guessing
