Do I need to contact Three to upgrade my sim for 5G?

I did that yesterday and they said that your plan will automatically work with 5G so no need but you can double check. My Pay Monthly Sim doesn't need to be upgraded and I assume that is the same for all sims.

Has anyone ever traded in a device with apple? I thought previously it was an apple store credit but now looks like they automatically apply credit to your payment method - the offers less than a couple
Of other trade ins (although this could
Change by the time max comes out which I’m planning to buy) but wonder if it’s easier with apple direct.

They will change you full amount and credit your card back when the iPhone is received and processed
 
Does it mean that PC/laptop browser works better? I was back and forth in app and luckily get 23rd in-store collect.
I need to repeat this cycle for missus’s Max order on Nov 6th.

My laptop was the way I got my partners iPhone 12, the app just didn't want to work.

Kind of want to just cancel the Amazon order now so I don't have to run the risk of them taking the money then faff about waiting for them to refund.

Anybody else already just cancelled? I would say looking at their terms its almost a cert they're going to cancel the orders due to mispricing, although I know if I do they'll end up honouring it 🤔

Amazon charge on dispatch......never before....so if payment is taken it means the item is in the fulfilment process!

Amazon don’t take payment until dispatch so no harm in letting events run their course
 
I had this issue recently, I went into settings > wallet & Apple Pay, then went to each individual card and deleted extra addresses and also the shipping address default further below and deleted the invalid and extra addresses. Somehow it had added extra addresses (same location) which was causing issues.

I certainly seemed to have a couple of duplicates, have now cleared them out, cheers.
 
Pre-ordered through app.

Apple pay didn't make the happy dance chime, and I received a few error messages. That said, a few minutes later the email came through with the order reference number on it.

App was really slow for me, showed me the 23rd throughout but the time I got to the checkout and sorted trade in date slipped to 26-28 October. Confirmation email came through at 13:07 with a delivery date of 28 Oct-2 Nov. Also weirdly no payment has been taken from my bank account. What are the chances for this shipping earlier? Got a Pacific Blue Pro, 256 GB.
 
Fake wallets already on the way via Amazon:


No Apple logos on them so they aren’t fakes as such. Good to see other companies offering them as £59 for a card pouch is obscene!!

An 5G question while waiting ...

I've read that the 5G capability differs on the US and UK models, does that mean that a UK model will not connect to 5G in the US?
 
I received a confirmation email saying estimated delivery date 23rd but now looking on the store app it says on hold. The website shows my order history as order placed but no date.

Am I likely to get on 23rd?

It could ship earlier, in my experience it usually does come in the week of expected delivery dates.

Did you do finance and trade in?
I am in same boat as you showing order on hold for 23rd. I chose for in-store collect.
