Which model? I could be interested
She's realised she's going to get my 7+ as a hand me down and the X... and I quote 'doesn't do anything different'.. crazy talk I say
I was contemplating offering it as face value but given the warranty form JL is in my name, its not going to be easy to transfer etc..
This wave of people getting their phones by this week reminds me of the 7 Plus launch - virtually zero launch day stock but plenty available in the week just following the launch day.
Here’s a question for you geniuses while I’ve got you in a good mood. Is it possible for someone else to sign the iUP on your behalf (say as a gift to you) and then when they go to upgrade, they start the new iUP plan in their own name (not the name of the person who originally signed up) or is the iUP perpetually in the name of the person who did it the first time round? I hope that makes sense.

hopefully the latest PFDs have made that van!It’s on the move!!
the q&a is a little ambiguous, it says
Can I gift to someone the latest iPhone on the iPhone Upgrade Programme?
Yes, you can purchase the latest iPhone on the iPhone Upgrade Programme for someone else. However, the person making the purchase is responsible for the loan, and any communication regarding the programme or the loan will be sent to them.
that would imply the person who it was gifted to actually took out the IUP agreement?!

don't need the hassle, I'm not trying to make a money on it.. now my apple order is moving through the gears quickly, its rather just get my money back!
Well, tomorrow this post is going to be a little quieter by the looks of things! Congrats on everyone who's getting their hands on one soon, especially curious to hear from people who are moving from a *+ model to the smaller body.
Meanwhile...I'm an 08:10 256gb Silver, no charge on card and order still at 'Order in Progress'. Fun! And, I've still got my outstanding order with Argos, which depending on who I speak to and what coin flip-generated response they decide to give might actually come tomorrow. Who knows. At least Argos have left me a voicemail saying I'll be compensated for the trouble (without cancelling the order too, which is cool), so there's a slight silver lining to this big cloud of impatience-driven disappointment. #firstworldproblems etc.
Time for wine.

13-20 order - preparing for dispatch - 256 SG
I guess not getting it tomorrow like lots here but surely before the end of the week?

they can ship quite late, I'm still hopeful for tomorrow!
There’s still time apparently! Fingers crossed for you.
Giving up for this evening, going to go and do something else. Hopefully tomorrow. Seems the 8:10 256Gb Silvers have been forgotten about. "Waves to the tumbleweed and crickets".
Has anyone else had order in process moved or has it stopped again
nope...it will prob move along when am not watching
Thought the SGs had gone! - Looks like 256GBs all round then for 8:10?
Edit: One last check of the bank and order status - nothing. I'm out. Hopefully something will have changed in a bit!
Glad it’s not just me. I don’t see that there’s any issue. We have a tracking number. It’s just a case of whatever DPD have to do to allow us to see it. Would be nice to see some information though
