Yeah it said 26/9 - 1/10 in the email but now under Orders it has changed to 3rd-8th. It'll turn up eventually!

Sometimes this is down to the initial date being ‘ships by’ and then the second date the ‘delivered by’. Those few days as your device makes its trip from the Far East

Just managed to pick up a brand new 42mm Milanese Loop to go with my watch from the Argos eBay outlet for £85.

Almost ordered 2 by accident. Got confirmation at 8:04 for a silver aluminium GPS only model with seashell loop. Wanted to upgrade to SS this year but cost/depreciation put me off somewhat.

Don’t suppose you bought via desktop and paid via Apple Pay on an iOS device did you?
I did, and I have the same problem.

Had this problem last year. It’s as a result of the payment being handed off to the iOS device.

From memory, try clicking on the order number in your confirmation email. Ensure it opens in safari rather than the app. You should see a "link to account” option. If you click on that and log in it should all sync up correctly

Can’t wait for next Friday for my watch, still thinking about ordering X Max, I’ve got the X so not sure if it’s worth the upgrade. Keep looking at the iPhone X dispatch thread and getting jealous.

What's the story with Apple pushing up delivery times? I ordered 44 Silver Sport the second the website went live, and I got a 1st October date.

They, generally speaking, always arrive ahead of schedule (I’ve had the same for every iPhone I’ve purchased in the past).

I’ve ordered a second from Very in any case, not sure I want to wait for the Nike+ model in any case..

Yes I remember this in the past with ipads etc too.

Anyone else gone with Vodafone? the deal i got compared to what a friend got offered with EE seems almost too good to be true...
I have a 12 month sim only contract with them, as an existing customer they offered me the 40 or 44m LTE version at £22.95 p/m over 24 months, zero upfront. Totals to £550.80 which is barely any different to buying it outirght? Granted the watch uses allowed from my main contract but that's all good as i have plenty of data on it... seems pretty decent unless i've missed something?!

Cheers
Do you know what happens when the 12month phone contract runs out? Will the watch data stop until you get another phone contract?

It should just become a month-to-month contract.

It keeps forcing me to open in the App, I can't seem to get it into Safari?

Copy the link and paste into safari. It’ll ask to open in the app. Hit cancel and you’ll be left with a blank safari window. Paste the link you copied and hit enter again and it should overcome this issue with the app prompt.

I’m still at Processing on a SSSB Sport band 44mm order scheduled for 21st home delivery.

Please tell me I’m not the only person who isn’t now PFD??!!

‘Order in progress’ and ‘Processing’ mean the same thing. Subtitle differences originate from language used on US vs UK websites. We also see ‘Preparing For Dispatch’ whereas our friends across the pond see ‘Preparing For Shipment’

And regardless of what you see compared to everyone else, you’ll get your watch the day Apple tell ya.

(Mines still processing )

What the fork? That's so weird as there really isn't supposed to be any limit with Apple Pay with retailers who fully support it (obviously Apple are included in that). Pleased I switched to Monzo to get away from this kind of absurd regular bank stuff.
Apple Pay via Starling pulled this chicanery on me this morning, so Monzo might not be above it!
