Bit of an urgent question. I have a number of Apple purchases heading my way this month, including the iPhone which changed delivery dates from the end of the month to today, which is great! However, the DPD website indicates the driver will ask me for photo ID which I don't have right now (I don't drive and I lost my passport recently, haven't been able to get a new one due to COVID). What am I going to tell them? I've only ever bought from Apple in person, does DPD always ask for photo ID for deliveries?

For reference, I checked Apple's FAQ and and shopping pages, it only talks about requiring signatures. DPD's website says photo ID is required to pick up parcels from them but nothing about when they come to your door.
 
Hello can someone give me advice, I have placed order for iPhone 12 max pro from Apple store, the arrive date is 1st December, which is too long,

I want to cancel it and get it from somewhere else, I looked and I found 2 shops ,

KRSC.co.uk and shop.bt.com both shows if I order I will get it by 13 expected which is way earlier then 1st of December

My question is has anyone had any exp with these shops ? Have u buyed from them

I haven’t so wanted to know if they legit
Thanks

KRSC says 'Expected to ship from Friday, November 13th'..... 'From' could be anytime doubt it would be Friday!
BT says 'Delivery due date unavailable'.... ??

I think you mean KRCS! They are fine, been about for years. Had many a mac and iPod from them before the prevalence of apple shops.

I bought my last MacBook from them as they had the best price at the time.
 
Just about... As I've recently only been using 10 GB a month I should be ok I think 🤣
I’ve just got unlimited data for £5 per month, too good to turn down but I’m coming from 3GB a month for the past however many years lol

On holiday this week so we went to Dishoom for breakfast. Walked past the Edinburgh Apple Store to get there but they are not allowing walk-ins currently so had to sqint through wtndow to see colours on the 12 Pro’s. So wished the gold had the bright white backs of the silver but still excited for Friday. Also just realised that although am currently home working and forgo to change default delivery adddress from office to home most couriers do tend to deliver to busines addressed earlier in my experienc......though no doubt that will be exa when we are out for lunch (a Wine free lunch 😫)!

I have a question for eSim users though. If I am using an eSim already (as I am on my 11Pro) do I need to order another for the 12 Pro Max? Assuming answer is yes but want to check 😁
Yup.
 
If anyone is curious about status timelines (Pro white 128 gb)

29Oct - ordered
7Nov - Processing
11Nov ~7am - Preparing to ship
11Nov~7pm - Shipped
12Nov - Delivering 4pm

Apparently my Apple store app tells me I’m eligible for an upgrade from my iPhone 12 pro. It says I only have to pay £620.95 to upgrade. Which is obviously 11 months payments.

Wonder why it’s telling me that.

You can upgrade anytime as long as you’ve made those 11 payments, clearly not the best UX there from Apple as you’d be way out of pocket if you did so early.

I guess Apple trying to be clear you’re not ‘locked in’
 
Good morning only 2 days to go now, the eve of ‘iPhone Eve’ but boy is this week dragging doesn’t help that work has been really slow this week, allowing my mind to continually drift!

Cheers, bit strange I don’t remember the option being there in the store app on my 11 pro max.
