I was on my phone and mac refreshing from 7:59:00 and didn't get on to the site until about 8:07-8:08.
Is it safe to post an order no. on here?!
My phone is being delivered tomorrow and I would really like an screen protector fitted by apple, can anyone going in store let us all know which protectors are being applied with the machine and if they have stock? The retail stock is slightly different packaging if I'm not mistaken and the just had dozens in plastic slips last time I went with my 7+, so although the stores are showing no retail stock I'm wondering they have the ones for their machines?
Hello all, just for information, my delivery date has moved 
I ordered the Silver 256 model around 1pm (yeah I know, I was unsure on colour!) I as initially given a 5-6 week lead time, 4th Dec - 11th Dec. Checking the order today, it's now 24th November - 1st December...

It's going to be a busy day for me too. LOL.
Go to the Apple store for 11am pick up of my iPhone X
Come back home and sync iPhone 7 Plus.
Set up iPhone X.

Disassociate Apple Watch Series 2 from iPhone 7 Plus.
Reset iPhone 7 Plus to factory settings making sure Find My iPhone is off ready to be sold.
Get Apple Watch Series 2 ready for sale to my work colleague.
DO NOT POST ANY ORDER NUMBERS OR TRACKING NUMBERS!
Why would you cancel it? How about contacting Argos first? It said January because they had no official time date to put on the website so they had no choice to put January on it.
going to try and sell my 7 plus to likely CPW if I can't get any interest on gumtree by Monday/tuesday
Got in touch with my local Apple store about the screen protectors. Confirmed that the in store stock is different to the SKUs sold online. They’ve offered to exchange the one I ordered online in store, subject to stock being available for the machine
Well I didn' know that at the time. I managed to order one from CPW that said 3rd November. I figured if that one didn't arrive on time I could queue up at the Apple store, otherwise just wait until it comes from CPW.
Tip of the day:
When you phone three to cancel, select the customer services option and ask to cancel. Hopefully they will put you straight through to the cancellation department. If you select the 'cancel your contract option' from the automated menu, it puts you through to the team who try to convince you not to cancel (I was on the phone for over 30 mins).
They tried upselling, dropping prices, offering other handsets etc and eventually offered to let me keep my existing contract (The all you can eat plan) which had expired as a sim only contract for £5 per month (I was paying £almost 60 pm as a iPhone 6s contract cheeky buggers)!
Eventually, after all the hoo-hah, the lady said "Ok, i'll put you through to cancellations" - I thought I was speaking to the cancellation team for the past 30 mins lol!
Moved over to o2 and where I am, the signal and speeds are so much better, the customer support has been amazing!
Great stuff thanks
So customer services section is who I need to contact.
Hopefully getting the pac code shouldn’t take long
Time slows down the closer you get to delivery. Its a Timey-Wimey thing. Ask The Doctor.Next 2 weeks for some of us
