Is that the coastal rock on the right? I was tempted by that as it looked green on their site but looks blue there.
Lyca mobile now use EE and you can Get eSIMS on PAYG, if you just needed to add one for a month or something.
I haven't read all 195 pages of the thread, but have been actively watching over the last couple of days. There's been talk of cases so I thought I'd upload pictures of the one I've bought from Mous. It was eye-wateringly expensive. It's easily the most I've ever spent on a case, but it's an expensive phone...! 🤷♂️
Every year, we tell people that Currys are a HUGE risk and can’t be trusted to stick to launch day deliveries, regardless of what your initial order may say.
They get an allocation from Apple, same as every retailer in the world.
But, what they clearly do is over sell. Probably on the basis that people cancel, but every damned year they disappoint people.
I have been amazed for years that they are still in business and I was shocked that CPW merged with them.
CPW are a bunch of cowboys too though tbf
I pre-ordered super early on launch day, EE said it’d be a month before I got it but I just got the DPD tracking for delivery tomorrow! I think they were under-promising to over-deliver, that or Apple have scrambled the Typhoons to get them out ASAP.
Well, I chanced an order from Curry's, with a view if it arrives - great, if not I'll be looking to order a pickup on Friday. My trade in is valid with MM until 2nd of Oct so I've got time. Frankly if the Apple pre-order process actually worked on the 15th I wouldn't have to bother with any of this. Last time it was this bad for me was iPhone 7 days... Been able to quite easily pre-order the previous years with no hassle at all :/
So in my best Homer voice “Doh” was feeling all smug as you do, I got a Natural 256GB PM from Apple for launch day delivery then I realised the next morning hang on aren’t we on away on holiday next Thursday & Friday …… Damn
So no one else can be at home to accept the delivery will DPD or DHL deliver to a neighbour or will DPD deliver to my local “pickup point” as per my app settings ?

If I remember rightly they don't allow you to get it anywhere else but home, you might be able to reschedule to Saturday delivery.
I've been debating with myself as to whether to buy the white sport case. I think it looks fantastic.
Nice case. I had the wooden variant on my 13PM. I looked at the cost of multiple cases I inevitably buy and screen protectors and went with Applecare+ instead. Naked and without a care in the world is how I'm rolling.
Well hopefully it'll keep my hands nice and clean then. 😊
I've had a Mous case on my current phone (iPhone 11 Pro Max) for years and it's protected it well. The back of the case itself looks worn and pretty terrible. I don't treat my phones badly at all so can only think it's worn away being put in and out of my jeans pocket over months and years(!) but the phone itself is fine inside and that's the main thing so I'm giving it a go for the new one.
I wish I'd read this thread before I ordered it and then I might've considered other options, but at least I'll have a case from Day 1.
Yeah, similar time as yourself, and same situation, the online tracker says 1-2 weeks 8am-6pm. Also spoke to the agent, they said the same thing, didn't receive the text confirmation like yourself but he did assure me.
So yeah I imagine the online systems will adjust tonight, maybe after 10pm, that was the cut off last I saw on the Vodafone store. It said something like order by 10pm 21st Sept for 22nd Sept delivery
I can understand that. I considered that myself as I've also gone for Applecare+. I usually buy through my business but the insurance for business phones is very restrictive and you have to have a case on and you can't get the interest free options etc etc so this year I've bought it personally so I can do what I want. It means I can't claim the VAT back, but paying monthly interest free is a price worth paying.
I must admit to being tempted to try using it without the (expensive) case I've just bought now and then, for exactly the same reasons you're going down that route. Having said that, I've heard that the titanium scratches easily...?
