Just though I’d have a look to see how prices have changed and the code didn’t work for me at least

Same happened to me :(
 
Cancelled my upgrade with Vodafone but received a text this morning say that I owe them the early upgrade fee! Also received a text saying the parcel will be delivered to my road with no house number..... 🙄

Glad I cancelled that upgrade now! Every year the carriers are hopeless.
 
Forum doesn't look all that much different on my phone. But Poll in particular (and everything else generally) now looks better on a laptop screen, noticed there's an extra 11 option (without a colour).

Yay for full emoji set 🤩 & uploading photos from local.

How does the date slip twice from release day then all of a sudden I’m being told it’s ready to collect on Friday. Bizarre
According to one of the MR articles from a few days ago they were having some production difficulties initially with the midnight green colour that were constraining supply, I guess they ironed those out?
 
Anyone had any movement with O2? I preordered the moment they were available for delivery "from 20th September".

Can't remember how/if they let you know about dispatch.

I did click and collect and its in my city today - no email - checked order status in my account and saw the uk mail carrier details and parcel ID

Haha yes that was there before as I never bothered putting the 11 colour options first time.

I then couldn’t remove it when I did

Sorry to bring it back up but the best way to backup current XS is iTunes encrypted backup? Do you know how much space is required as I wasn’t able to do it yesterday as I’ve only got 50gb left on my SSD. Does it need to be more than the storage usage on the phone? Currently using 100gb with all my pictures etc
 
I ordered through CPW too, although only Tuesday this week. It was still showing as delivery for the 20th (11 pro, 256gb) and confirmed with live chat it’d be available to collect on launch day. They’ve taken the money, or at least the charge appears on my credit card statement.

All seemed a bit too easy!

The advisor I spoke to on live chat told me that "they get the stock in" on the 20th but that seems unlikely. I'll let you know if I get any movement on my order!

Anyone know if you can pay DPD to have your order delivered first thing? Thanks

They do sometimes have that option, if it’s actually possible for them to do so for your route.

I remember for the X release loads of people did and DPD couldn’t deal with the demand and people still got later deliveries. Then had the hassle of getting money back from DPD.

Just hang fire and wait for ‘dave’ or whoever your driver will be to be arrive. You’ll be watching out your window for anything that sounds like a van, chasing them down the street if one doesn’t stop at your door, and freaking the direct out when you address him by his first name when he knocks
 
Had a dispatch notification from DPD to advise delivery will be tomorrow from EE for both watch and iPhone
 
As we start to receive despatch notifications, I understand the overwhelming urge to share tracking page screenshots etc.

Just a friendly reminder: DO NOT share your tracking details or the SMS from DPD et al. Almost every year someone does, and some spiteful person manages to use this information to change delivery dates and addresses etc. 🙂
 
I've just had an email from DPD saying my order will be delivered tomorrow. Problem is I don't know if this is the EE order or the Apple order I made as a backup option. I tried to cancel with Apple but they said it was preparing to ship. On Apple's site it still says preparing to ship, and EE said they use DPD, so I'm very hopeful it is the EE order, although I've no way of telling as EE's tracking SMS link isn't working still.

Any thoughts?
