I don't know about you lot, but DPD are apparently delivering my Vodafone order in an hour :D:D:cool: Be interesting to see what, if anything turns up, because I'm pretty sure it won't be a phone!

My friend pre-ordered with Vodafone on Friday and has also got a DPD delivery from vodafone coming today. It was an upgrade not a new contract so I wouldn't have thought it'd be a new sim, and she wasn't told about any extras being bundled in!

I have never had any problems with EE pre-orders. Who did you order through?

Was literally just a new customer SIM only order from their website, but I then had to phone up for them to read my details back to me before they would order the SIM and then it came like 3rd class post

Anyone that traded in their current iPhone through Music Magpie - what sort of transit time have you seen when returning with their QR code? Next day or longer?

Just deciding what's the latest quote I can get away with using. Normally just send special delivery to be sure but they suggest that might complicate things.

......surely by having this on your phone and the whole caboodle in your pocket, when your phone then rings, by the time you’ve pulled the case out your pocket, and then opened the flap and pulled your phone out, you will have missed the call?!!!

I screen all my calls anyway so no real issue. I use my right pocket for my phone only so easily slips in and out and no risk of other items bashing or scratching my device. I also have the Apple watch.

Yep mine's an upgrade too. Alas I'm at work so I'm waiting for updates from husband.
 
Don't want to derail the thread, but if anyone can help please link me to the correct info... I've a feeling I won't be the only one with this consideration though... and I had problems last year.

I'm on EE (Sim only)
I have an iPhone Xs Max and Series 4 Cellular (with EE plan)

On Friday I'll have a new iPhone Max Pro
On Monday/Tuesday I'll have a new Series 5 Cellular Apple Watch...

Clearly I'll get the new Phone going with the existing apple watch, new phone restored from encrypted back up of current phone, I'll just unpair the current watch > keep plan > re-pair to the restored phone.

But... What do I do when the Series 5 arrives next week in order to ensure my EE watch data plan is active only on the new watch?

Protect seems to be around £8pm. On the 11 at least, AC is £149 or £7.50pm so much the same really..

Other advantage of AC+ vs. home insurance / protectyourbubble etc. is the ability to walk into an Apple Store and walk out with a replacement phone, or to do an express replacement (they send you a new phone then you send your damaged / non-functional one back) rather than having to wait for the claim to be approved, then send your phone off, then wait for a repair or replacement. Worth the small extra cost IMHO.

Really wish you could pay Monthly for AC+, it would be an easy decision then.

But AC+ doesn't cover loss/theft does it?

last year I reserved mine at 6pm (after work), but I was in the line for nearly two hours and left the store at 8:30pm

so this time I reserved mine at 8am, hoping I wont have to wait that long, but let’s see.

Insert swear word here!!!

No, just accidental damage & extended warranty. Depends what potential risk you think is the most likely for you I suppose. AC+ is still worth it for me as I've used the express replacement several times on iPhones / iPads: I could claim on my home insurance if I lost it / had it stolen, would just have to put up with being without a phone for a while until they paid out in that situation.

yeah this might sway me into iUP. 24 months 0% would have been nice on the payments plan though - less forked out when I come to renew next year...


iUP - £69 down, 11 x £40.45 = £513.95 then hand phone back and start over.
payments - £20 down, 12 x £29.99 = £379.88. Sell for more than £349, pay off loan and start over.
payments with AC+ - £20 down, 12 x £29.99 + AC £149 = £528.88. After 12 months, get £75 AC+ refund (so net £453), sell phone to settle loan. If I get any more than £349 for the phone then that £453 comes down even more. I think £400 would be about right. So about £100 less over the 12 months to go payments even including AC+?
