Nope, I live with my parents, my devices are secure apart from my girlfriend. One of the iPhone's was for her so it's not her.

Correct

No, never, I ordered, then forgot about it until it was nearly time. Never posted any details on here.
How has this thread went this long without the obvious?????
This guy is looking for some sympathy, free phone, mess with people on MacRumors etc.
All you have to do is click on the OP's name and see all posts by OP. He was in line at his local Apple Store to buy phones so why did he order phones and have them shipped to him? He is a student who has enough money to buy two phones and have them shipped to him while also choosing to stand in the queue at his local Apple Store to buy phones?
BS Story. Nice try. He has provided no proof yet. 4 pages of no one checking that concerns me.

Theres this thing called benefit of doubt that some of us like to apply to situations like these. You can still do it while being suspicious and without being a jerk.
You might want to read his thread he started about being first in line at his store:
https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/1779975/
He discusses that he is only buying 1 while others are buying 2 and he is hoping to just get one. Also, he just joined this month.
Hence the questions about how this scenario could have been possible without something fishy going on
I'd find out who lives at that address. Whoever is there IS the thief. That's a big break for you.

busted

Quite simple, one phone for me, one for my girlfriend, one for my farther. Nothing fishy going on, it's simple. I queued for my phone, ordered the ones for my family online.

I will post evidence once I finish colouring in sensitive information from my order. I'm not looking for sympathy as that jerk suggested, I'm looking for advice on how to get this situation resolved.
Notice how it's billed to Manchester but shipped to Norwich? Yeah, I'm not faking it. So stop with your stupid comments if you can't help. Jerk.
OP...
- What have your bank said?
- have you got the Proof of Delivery scan from the courier (UKMail?)?
- Have you Googled the address to see what comes up?
1) not managed to get in contact yet, but will do 1st thing tomorrow
2) nope, when ever try to enter it says it cannot find the reference. apple said they would get this for me.
3) yes i have, it just comes up with zoopla results and unrelated things. nothing suspicious.
===============
Now he said he picked one up for himself ? And ordered one for the family and girlfriend ?
On who's credit card did he buy one for the family ?
Why did the family member not order one for themselves, and why are they not ranting now about the theft since he got his at the store ?
Who paid for the girlfriends expensive phone ?
Why he did not buy two phones when in the queue ?
Look, I've been with you since the start of your thread, but something doesn't add up here...
"not managed to get in contact yet"
You've managed to spend several hours on MacRumors making posts, yet you couldn't make a phone call to your bank to report a £1300 fraud??
Why haven't you rung UKMail and asked for the Proof of Delivery??
Something just isn't right here...

Seems the girlfriend may have his passcode/information since he is that close to her to buy her an iPhone
He lives at home, so where did he get the money to buy these phones, specially for the girl friend ?
honestly i have no time for sceptics, fair enough you have your questions but I'm just interested in resolving this issue. i don't have to explain every little detail just to settle your mind from thinking I'm a troll. it is what it is, I've been truthful and if you can't accept that then just don't reply and let the people trying to help do that.
