1. Have 11 pro max. Gone for 12 pro max. Maybe they'll notice, maybe they won't?
2. I have actually done this. haha!
3. I own the company, so not so easy.
4. No way! Then they'd think I liked them or something.
Totally forgot about this, partner is a teacher, you may have just saved me £200
I'm going from an X to the 12 pro max hoping they don't realise 😂
I will never understand the logistics of driving it hundreds of miles further from its destination to bring it all the way back down 
All set for tomorrow:
The ‘everyday’ clear case, the ‘fun’ red case, the ‘smart’ brown case, the ‘outdoors’ case and my favourite screen protectors for the past few years (I can’t comment on the ESR ones people mention a lot on here, but I find these Spigen ones so smooth with such nicely rounded edges).
Also those M1 benchmarks are getting me dangerously close to ordering one of those too. Think I wait for some real world reviews yet though.

I had the same issue with Three for IP12 launch.
They just continue to take preorders without knowing how much stock they’ll get.
Then they also hold back the majority of their stock for new customers, so when you see it in stock on their website it’s for nee contracts. When mine was delayed they told me I could take out a new contract and get it next day or wait 4 weeks for my upgrade. Disgusting service, so glad I left and joined EE!
That’s awful... it’s definitely not first come first serve as I got confirmation email at 12:43... before launch time.
They suck.
Yes. There will be a lot of orders to go out.
See if you get confirmation overnight, if not contact Currys in the morning.
Does anyone know what time DHL start deliveries in the morning? I have the day off work so not sure what time to make sure to be up for. Don't think I've ever had DHL deliver to my home so can't even go off previous times. Really hoping it doesn't come between 2pm and 3pm either as I have a job interview and can't really ask them to hold on whilst I go get my parcel!
They are the worst, also sent me on an 80 mile round trip to collect one from a store only to tell me I couldn’t collect as they hadn’t cancelled my upgrade
1. If they notice... How can they prove otherwise?
2. This helps 1. to not be an issue.
3. Why didn’t you say?! You’re writing off tax liabilities - this is a company expense, with a net-zero outcome!
4. The fact you’re asking on an online forum how not to hurt their feelings shows that you like them! Buy them a new iPhone for Christmas. Just so you know that I’m not a hypocrite, I have bought my husband an iPhone 12 Pro Max, arriving with mine tomorrow, for Christmas. To aid my cause, he is having it tomorrow and doesn’t have to wait for six weeks....
Whats the consensus for the best clear pro max case?
Humixx, Spigen, ESR or Torras?
I've had the spigen liquid crystal in the past and it was great: has little air bags on the corner which help with drops!

Must say after spending today reading about people who've already got their PS5 whilst we have to wait another week, it's quite nice to know at least some of us will be getting our iPhones a few hours before those across the pond 
It's always easier to ask for forgiveness than permission🤗
I love them really. Phones are not on their radar - it's not something they are into. Tomorrow's courier delivery will be met with a scrunched up face and a "what new amazing gadget did you absolutely need and couldn't live without today?" I'm the breadwinner so I have the freedom. Haha. I'll buy them something much nicer than an iPhone and redeem myself.

People with PS5’s?!
First of all, go and give yourself a long, hard look in the mirror... Three hours should do it.
Then cut all of that out of your life and order an Xbox Series X.
Then all will be good... 😂

I understand totally. They still deserve a new iPhone, on top of an amazing holiday (when we’re allowed to again!), and anything else you were going to buy them!
