Yes please - am considering for the gold Pro Max.


Maybe stop asking then 😉

I have every right to question them when being told my delivery date is different to what’s quoted on my account and in an email. It shouldn’t be like this being told different dates by different supports. It’s an absolute joke.
 
I was paying £5 a month unl everything 3 and I still left for EE to pay over £20 I’m not a fan of three

I was going to chang network but I thought you know what, theyve never given me any issues before with delivery, always been on release day...

... Wish I had as no other network seem to have supply issues.

Cs I didn’t really have a problem with but I was sick of seeing 3 4g bars but nothing would load I suppose you get what you pay for

And the fact you dont get visual voicemail or Apple Watch support. Such a joke compared to other networks. Only stayed with them because I have been with them since first iPhone and I didn’t know what signal would be with other networks... grr
 
Oh god yeah Three suck. I was with them when I had the iPhone 5 but I left for O2 when I got the iPhone 6. I've always purchased directly from apple so whoever has the best sim only deal gets my business. The Three network where I am is bloody shocking, not to mention their customer service.

You can’t go wrong with ee imo good signal and the cs in North east is a joy I could listen to that accent all day long
 
I am still struggling to understand why people buy the wallet. It just looks too vulnerable to fall off and get lost plus with Apple Pay who uses cards!!!!
I probably won't be using the wallet attached to the case most of the time. I do carry a couple of cards with me on a daily basis, purely for a just in case scenario and for those places which do not support the limitless Apple Pay transactions.

I actually like the Apple Wallet it's well made, looks and feels like and it's perfect for the couple of cards I carry. It's a better wallet than I was previously using.
 
I have a caravan I visit most weekends/week during Summer and sadly 3 is only network that gets signal so that’s why I use them :( so frustrating.

All the networks struggled with the iPhone 12 and 12 Pro launch. Pretty much all deliveries slipped.
 
I was actually looking into switching from O2 to EE. Unfortunately their service where I am is shaky :(
You have to go with the network what supports your area best as you probably spend 90% of your time there
plus with ee I love the swappables so I can add the bt sport ultimate add on pay an extra fiver big screen access and have 4k football on the ps4 pro instead of paying £25 to sky for bt

I have my phone and watch plan with EE but my iPad plan with 3. 3 has been fine and for the last three years for £9 I get 20gig of data a month. I would like to move my iPad plan to EE so that i am using just the one provider but EE is just so expensive....they are good though
 
We was all thinking it and you said it get ready for the can of worms explosion 😉

to be fair, I was sceptical initially, but I got it to try. I like it, I like the option to have it on phone or separately, and it attaches much stronger than I was expecting, after watching some videos.
in the positive side, the wallet should be compatible with all magsafe cases/phones going forward, so should be just one off cost.

I had confirmation at 12:43 on Friday my delivery will be 13th. How do they not have stock for people ordering first???

Three can be very annoying...I remember when I pre-ordered my XS Max for launch day 21 Sept 2018. The day before launch day I got a call to say they weren't sure my handset would be in, then on the day itself they confirmed it hadn't arrived and could take as long as 5 Oct to arrive... In the end it did take that long to arrive I'm afraid to say :(

Is this a thing? Can we get our AC+ refunded?

Also I've looked up the best prices and for my own 11 pro max 256gb unlocked, EE have offered the best price - just checked Rebuy and it wasn't a great price. Then i am hoping to use Carphone Warehouses trade-in promise and beat that by £10 further.
Your iUP includes the monthly AC+ cost, so by pay off Barclays your AC+ is paid in full as well. Once you get rid of the phone, check your AC+ email for your policy number, so that you can call Apple, cancel AC+ and they should issue a pro-rated refund.

That is my plan, thanks to this forum for the information.

They never get allocated as much stock as they anticipate which is why it does take a lot longer for people to get their orders - usually not on launch day.

That's a generous way of looking at it. Of course, I would never accuse the retailers of knowingly promising an earlier delivery date to secure sales!

Swappables are great, when my team gets knocked out of the Champions League and there isn’t any coverage on BT that interests me then I can just switch to Apple Music included instead
