iPhone 7 was my last contract phone. makes no sense to me. same phone over 2 years is £130 more, yes you have the outlay, even if I wanted to spread it would just add to my 0% credit card and pay £42 interest and the tariff is cheaper on SIM only
You can always get in-touch with their customer service and request it, shouldn’t face an issue.
I am one of the ‘refresh app’ brigade and didn’t get through bang on 1pm (I was also in Holland trying to order) I and got bumped a few days- ordered orange 1tb PM processing but says 24-29th September.
I can’t see anyone saying their dates have moved earlier in the previous posts however I remain hopeful and not obsessed. Honest.

My last phone order was the 15 Pro Max and what's interesting is that they either were able to provide more stock this year or having a new offering reduced the demand per phone type. I ordered late so I'm part of the Oct 6 - 13th crowd but I know that when orders start getting fulfilled a lot of people either pick up in store and cancel their order or the dates get bumped up due to more stock. Most early orders will be fulfilled within the first week and I'm expecting my phone around the week of the 29th 
or first week of Oct.
or first week of Oct.I jumped that ship in 2014. I am on EE and actually have a contract that also gives me 'free' Netflix Premium. I pay £25 I think but everything is included and I am paying for the phone outright, although this year I did the 0% Finance, but can pay off at any time.
You can update the dates at any time, no specific day. If you were hoping for launch day, I hope you do get it then, but I feel it is too late.
Yeah, I’ve been sim only for years. I upgrade my phone every year directly from Apple with no hassles and no worries. I exchange my phone each year and pay to cover the difference.
Depending on your current model, you can convert your physical sim into an eSim now, and then when your new phone arrives it will transfer over when you do set up.
As an example, I ordered the AirPods 3 right when pre-orders opened, but getting it on the 23rd has not changed. This is for the AirPods 3, so the likelihood on phones is a lot slimmer, but you never know! Someone might cancel and bump you up the list.I don’t think I can update the delivery dates. If so I’ll get it yesterday
Sorry, I meant "They can update", not you, typo!I don’t think I can update the delivery dates. If so I’ll get it yesterday
Amazon UK have them (AirPods) for pre order - not sure if they are delivered on the 19th but I assume they will be the 20th.
I was surprised to see the delivery slip so quick on the APP3.
Ya, I am just as shocked by how the dates slip, and I don't think I'll move down and get it sooner, but honestly, I am not that fussed about it.
Apparently, I am mentally 5 years old, because I just realised my pre-orders arrive in… wait for it… TWO DAYS.
Me, until two seconds ago: “Cool, we’ve got ages to wait. I can become a Zen master in the meantime.”
Also me, just now: “WHAT?! TWO DAYS?! My entire life has been a lie. I have aged 3 years in this realization.”
Somehow, my brain thought we had forever… clearly it’s auditioning for a role in a drama called “How to Torture Yourself Waiting for Stuff.”

Yes. Cost of contract is same but if you upgrade in 12 months time you pay £90-£100 extra on iUP.
Couple of stores have them for pickup on Friday.
Otherwise yeah a wait
. Maybe syncreon had no space left in their warehouse. All those unordered airs
