So DPD now have my Vodafone order and it will be delivered tomorrow. I shall be 5 mins down the road stuck in a paediatric first aid course all day so it falls the husband to sign for it and guard it. He should do, this time tomorrow he'll have my XS Max, upgraded from a 7 plus. He's lucky, I usually sell my phones.

Mad day in work today so unwinding by catching up on today’s preorder goings on. Looks like my phone will arrive via DPD and watch with DHL. Hope the phone gets here first! Working at home tomorrow and my work rooms window is right by the door... a lot of my day is going to be lost to staring out the window I think 😛

Handy. Just open the window and stick your arm out. Your phone will be setting up before he's back in his van 😀
 
Also received notification of shipping from DPD - updated delivery to between 8 and 10:30. Only ordered form Currys at 4pm-ish!
They're also delivering my Switch Lite tomorrow - wonder if it'll be on the same van?!
 
Just had an email from Amazon saying my order (due tomorrow) has been delayed and they’ve given me a £10 gift credit.

anyone else?

Ouch! My order is still to be ”Delivered tomorrow” but nothing has happenend with the order since it was made.

Which model/colour did you order and when did you place it?
 
Got the “ready to pickup” notification. Why did I choose a 7pm pickup window? Anyone? :confused:
It’s gunna be a long day.

Yes got it an hour ago, ‘we look forward to seeing you’.

Pickup from Cambridge Apple store at lunch break, 12.30pm 😊, hopefully they’ll have available AW5 as well.

was like the calm before the storm at the bromley store just now. Nothing new on display apart from new cases. Think I’ll set on the clear one so will order that via employee portal and get me few quid off. The green( can’t remember the official name) silicon is a close 2nd

Was cheaper at JL / Amazon earlier in the week. Not sure if it still is though.
 
You‘re lucky my order has been delayed to October 1st. iPhone 11 Pro Max 64GB Space grey
Ditto, unfortunately. Gutted, considering original order stated delivery by 20th Sep, though the email from Currys does say they’ll give me a £25 gift voucher to soften the blow.
I was worried something like this was on the cards when the Pro Max space grey just disappeared from their site; not there and ‘out of stock’, just simply no longer on the site.

64GB Midnight Green Max. Ordered on Monday.

Order status still shows as arriving tomorrow however they’ve already credited my account with the £10.

Payment was on authorisation for the past few hours so I assumed it was in process of being dispatched. So was disappointing to see the email say it was delayed.
 
just got this from amazon:

Hello,

With the Amazon order delayed is it worth my time going to Apple store early for a walk in? Will they have units or do they only do pre-orders for launch?

I chose 6pm, regretting it now as should have just chosen the 8am one and probably would have still got to work on time :(
Same! I thought I’d give myself enough time to get there after work but wish I’d just gone before work instead! Lesson learned for next year.
