Managed to bag one, well 1st order didn't give me confirmation, 2nd no confirmation. 3rd attempt on my macbook said I reached my limit. panicking I was refreshing my app like mad. There they both were 2 x 2 256GB Space Grey for store pickup. Anyone after one for store pickup in the London area day one on the upgrade programme?
Got a tip for us?

Why on earth not? Ive bought iPhones from them before. All sealed up. EXACTLY the same as one from Apple?
What a nightmare with payment issues. Finally got hold of Apple and all is sorted now and still have a delivery date of 3/11. Phew.
Because they never arrive on time. Carriers will promise you the world to get your money. Release day comes and they're like ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Ah, the forum crashed and I only just saw this message... ordered for collection in store... I'm guessing I'll have to wait, which is a shame but by the time the O2 site sorted its self out, it was kind of too late to do anything else... what a **** show lol
Anyone in the same boat as me? Pre-ordered to pick up on Nov. 3 at Regent Street. I used Apple Pay on checkout, and my order has switched to 'order in progress'. I still haven't received any notifications from the bank/Apple that Apple Pay has failed. Any ideas?
Has anyone buying from CW had payment taken? i had to call for them to push payment through and progress the order.
interesting, hope so.would be nice to get it earlier.
i may do that, although waking up at 6 isnt fun when you sleep at 4. It is, however, i just checked now and it now says
"Your product will be available starting 18 Nov"
there goes that idea
Well, if I get an email saying it’s been put back from Friday I’ll just cancel and keep my Apple order. Fingers crossed!
If it is not showing unable to take payment, please amend payment options, Then everything should be fine.
looks like CPW knew there would be plenty of stock and thats why they got people to pay £25 to get it on launch day.
Their Twitter team suggested to me that I'd get a second email today once it processes.
Really fed up with the Apple ordering process. If they’re going to stagger orders at least have the common decency to tell us! I had four sources to attempt and the earliest one let me in at 8.08 once I'd taken my phone off wi-fi for some reason!
Apple one delivers 13th to 20th November
Back up CPW sim free one allegedly next Friday but realistically I expect it to be 'unavoidably delayed' so I’ll cancel! Can’t believe I'm even contemplating them!
CPW Still showing November 3rd for sim-free 256 in both colours!

Really getting fed up with these morons on the phone!
Passed back and forth to Sales and Tech Support, no one seems to understand the simple request of "Can you update my details over the phone because your website is BROKEN"

Best way would have been iPhone through apple store, and kept force closing it, having what you wanted already in favourites. The store did not come up for me until around 0805 had email at 0806 then the Apple pay saga after Order was placed, but had an order number, but now all sorted. hopefully,
The Apple pay although annoying and faulty as It was , I think it bagged the item for 3rd November for me.
