Other UK iPhone Air /17/17 Pro/ 17 Max/ Pre-Release, Order And Dispatch Thread

Anyone know about trade in? If I for example order online from Apple for home delivery , can I then trade in direct at the store afterwards and have it credited against the original purchase (to the payment method) and not via a gift card?

I do this every year, I take my old phone into the store they will ask you to scan a QR code and allow them to share your Apple Store account orders , don't worry it only last for that one interaction. They will complete the trade in and then link it to your Apple Store iPhone purchase and it will then credit that transaction, they don't give you a gift card unless you ask for one. The value is lower this year on the gift cards so ask them to credit it to your iPhone pre order.

Take your credit card with you as they will need it to authorise the refund on the card used to make the online pre-order. I used my Apple Pay and it was fine. Was back as a refund on my credit card in 2 working days.

Sorry I just remembered this. Leave your iPhone as it is , they will check its linked to your iCloud in the list of all your devices, as a basic check of ownership for the device you are trading in. As part of the trade in process it will wipe the device and remove it from your iCloud account and find my. Make sure you know your apple account password.

Don't forget to remove the stolen device protection in the privacy settings before you go to the store.

Sorry I should have said that in my original reply. I used to wipe my device before I went in but this year I didn't bother and as it turned out that was the best approach.

My 29th - 6th order was despatched last night at 21:21 and is due for delivery today, curiously no tracking info yet.

Some more UK stock just appeared (and gone), were all blues.

What locations were they?

Someone ping me when there’s Orange Pro’s available in London 😂

I’ve also signed up for an alert on https://appleinventorychecker.com/

Thanks for sharing. I keep trying to setup alerts for multiple locations using different email addresses and it says you’ve already subscribed, have you noticed that?

Pray it's not DHL eCom as the tracking took 22 hours to update for me on my delivery. The only notification I got was from Apple, nothing from DHL, not a single text or email, nothing! Their tracking system is very basic indeed.

again nothing today but blues in stock, no trace of cosmic orange.

I think Apple have deliberately constrained the cosmic orange.

Leeds. I think they had few available as more were showing for pick up after I completed my order.

Nice. Waiting for 512GB show up in central London for me

I think Apple have deliberately constrained the cosmic orange.

It has a delivery date on Amazon unlike silver which is showing as temporarily out of stock, same with the Sage iPhone 17.

 

[kidchop3]

Also showing stock at touchwood centre for 256 orange and blue and 1tb silver.

I’m still waiting for 256 silver

 

[bobtamboo]

John Lewis has delivery for all Pro 256GB models for tomorrow onwards. Got a silver one coming for Thursday.

No collection options unfortunately but maybe stores will start to get them this week

I've been checking for 1 week and when stock comes in, there must be only a few available since they're gone in a minute. No silver at all. I feel it's gonna be a month until there's actual stable stock, right now it's a joke

Thank you. Were you able to customise your pick up time? Curious as I’m working from home 9-5pm

 

[Sal09]

Yes. I was able to choose my pick up window.

But they keep your order for up to 7 days even if you miss your pick up window.
