Nearly managed to get one for Bristol but it had gone by the time I’d got all the details in. I’ll try again tomorrow before work
Got a tip for us?

How did you all manage? I'm refreshing the Reserve and Pickup page since 6 on the dot and it never showed me anything.
I still don’t understand this, the reserve link had what I wanted. I clicked this and just like yeterday it took me to the homepage?
I go via the App Store and check availability and it doesn’t show the phone in stock??
It’s gone now anyway but I’m not going to keep getting up if I clearly don’t know what I’m doing.

Are you using this exact link: https://reserve-prime.apple.com/GB/en_GB/reserve/iPhoneX/availability?channel=1&iPP=E
Snap - after the 256GB Silver as well, got to selecting a timeslot but then it disappeared. Took about 10 seconds to get to that page, was only slowed down by Apple 2FA.
I think i'm definitely doing it wrong.
Of the phones that were temporarily available - were they for upgrade or outright purchases?

That particular link hasn't worked all weekend. Says to check back after 6:00.
Back to stalking the 13-20 order page to praying for a change today
Upgrade program, but then when you go in store to pick up you tell them that you want to pay outright
Both reserve and pick up links are still dead for me -says “check back after 06.00”. No idea how it’s working for other people and not me, have cleared history / website data etc. and no different.
So you must be using the App? I've been using the website which has never shown me any option to upgrade.
Yeah it shows me the colours, sizing I click continue at the bottom and then takes me to the homepage.
I got my jet Black this way last year and didn’t have an issue then?
I thought that link didn't work for anyone???
All I get is -
We’re not taking reservations to buy iPhone in the store right now.
Please check back after 06:00, or shop now and select another purchase option.
No using the website, maybe try a different browser? I'm using Safari, the page was live from 6:02-6:04ish
Oh so, it's only up for a couple of minutes? Is it currently back to...

...?
So I guess realistically speaking, Tuesday would be the next day to try? As it is unlikely they'll get a delivery on Sunday (clearly they didnt get one on Saturday), but probably they'll get one on Monday. If you allow some time to unpack and load it into the system, Tuesday 06:00 would make sense.
Just thinking out loud here

Yeah only for a few minutes and then it goes live for maybe 45s randomly when somebody cancels order or something.
