Other UK iPhone (2017) X(Ten)/8/8+ Pre-Orders and Dispatch Thread

[Scontig]

Barring a few minor details, I’ve had virtually the same experience. Apple, John Lewis, Argos.

Ironically, in the immediate aftermath of getting my original order in I was delighted with Nov 13-20 given all the hype about constrained supply

I had the same experience. Apple Pay fudged up for me twice and asked for my address but told me there was a problem with it! Last time I use that.

Drop me a PM with your details and the device you want and I’ll go ahead and keep an eye out. There’s a SG 64gb in Stratford if you are interested.

Not showing up for me anywhere in London..

I am going via the app via my eligibility for iUP. They are obviously pritorising iUP customers. I saw a sg 256 I. Regents this afternoon. Once reserved, you don’t have to take it in iUP, you can pay via card.

 

[The SpinDoctor]

If anyone on the iUP is able to reserve a 256GB Silver X in London that I can purchase outright upon collection, I would appreciate it! Please PM me

Ah! Didn't realize you were already on a iUP. I would join a iUP if I could but the page to set up a new iUP is showing me the "come back at 06:00" page

 

[madzo2010]

Well if you see one in Belfast, which will probably be the last place on earth to get stock, let me know.

Yea I would like that too but I wouldn't expect anyone to trust a random dude on the internet. Besides, you would have to go in together I believe, as the reservation would be under his name.

Yes, I’m on iUP with my X but it still gives me access to reserve one as, the eligibility says I can upgrade my X for £703 in store payment.

I think anyone looking for one, this is the best option is via a friend on iUP who doesn’t want an upgrade or already has one. Stock is coming on almost every hour, possibly as people fail to collect them. I saw a white 256 in regents st this afternoon And many 64’s in and around London in both colours.

I thought that during the reservation process for iUP it asks to enter the name for the person who is picking it up, and so you can put in a different name? Maybe I understand this incorrectly.

 

[maka344]

So, as the stores of closed today stock is coming on:

Also, looking at this form, the persons details entered here can collect and start the iUP. Look at the small print.

Good points
Data comes directly from JL systems, we even have the stock quantity.

We can't check if this is real or not, but JL tracking could be useful in the coming days to detect any store shipments.

I didn't realize there would be an option to reserve under someone else's name, my bad. Someone on the iUP please confirm?

That’s correct. I just posted the screen below.

Oh! That's awesome. Too bad none of my friends are on a iUP.. Can you hook us up then?..

 

[maka344]

I’ve already promised someone further up and I assume I’ll only get one reservation.

Yeah ditto please, if anyone is on here with IUP, I'm looking for Silver 256GB

Only fair, ping us a pm if you end up being allowed multiple once your friend is done and you're still feeling active.

Sure.

Ask around your iUP friends too.

Strangely enough my friend got the same email after being told it would deliver Monday. He was told it would be between 8-24th. He just received a yodel tracking reference from Argos for delivery tomorrow.

I was told by Argos that you would get a text with a Yodel reference when it was shipping and to expect it within 24 hours of that text so looking good for your friend I would hope.
