I was offered 20gb for £19 only a few weeks back. I told them I’d be ringing back in a few weeks time when my contract expires.
If I don’t get what I’m after I’ll talk to the retention’s team.
There’s always a way around if your savvy enough

Sleeping or at least trying to
Staying up, im in the middle of a run of night shifts. 1 night off which is tonight, may as well stay on the night shift routine
Heh. I'll be playing Stardew Valley on the Switch until i feed the baby ~ 11:30 and then try and get some sleep.
Am working tomorrow so good chance i'll need to potter by waterloo station trying to use 4G and my app at 8am before getting on the waterloo and city line :-(
Definitely, buy upfront then put money aside for next years model
What’s everyone going to do if they don’t get an X in a decent time frame? Cancel and go for an 8 and wait for next years model or just hold out till it arrives?
Virgin Mobile contract prices are very cheap and there's zero upfront cost:
- 1.2 GB, 300 mins and unlimited texts for £37 a month
- 5 GB, 1500 mins and unlimited texts for £40 a month
- 8 GB, 2500 mins and unlimited texts for £43 a month
- 40GB, 5000 mins and unlimited texts for £46 a month
I'll get an 8+, I have spotted many people on eBay selling brand new unopened 8+ 64GB or 256GB for nearly £100-150 off, some of them are carrier locked, some are unlocked. I don't mind buying a carrier locked one if it's the Vodafone model. But £100-150 off? I'll take that.
I can’t believe how an Apple product release can make grown men and women turn into irrational, children who are lusting over a over priced inanimate object.......
I’m proud of you all

Yeah I think I’ll do that same, I don’t mind waiting till before Christmas but any longer and I’ll get an 8+ too
Not bad. 15% off of you already have a line with them? I have two but not sure if I’d qualify if I want to keep my number from a sim only?
Their previous pricing said £68 per month with £150 up front for the 64GB. So maybe that will drop as only £50 more for the 256 doesn’t add up
I'd like one before Christmas but i'm not desperate, my 6s is still a fully functional (rubbish battery) phone. I'll wait it out.
Also i keep forgetting, its not £1000. It's £1050. Because apple leather case right.

Whats the best method to preorder/ugrade to iPhone X via Three? What time is Three's preorder and what part of their site is the page to refresh?
Plan to preorder with Apple but also upgrade with Three and cancel the slowest to ship and keep whatever comes first, but bit confused on Three's preorder method....

In a few days there will be “Case is preparing for dispatch” posts, just to kill time till the 3rd!
I hope my local Apple Authorized Reseller in Oxford has some iPhone X units on Nov 3rd, will just go there and pick one up. Oxford is a tiny city so I don't expect the reseller to sell out of iPhones quickly.
Seriously, lesson from prior releases - it's not worth adding anything else to your order, much better to get your order for the handset in and then worry about AppleCare, covers, etc. You can add AppleCare to your phone for up to 60 days from purchase, and you can order a case separately once you've got your phone order locked in. Getting that order in matters, especially when stock is (expected to be) limited.
