Mine dispatched at like 11:00 am today but I can’t track it via DPD yet? Is this normal, it says it’ll arrive tomorrow.
[doublepost=1510247814][/doublepost]It’s just worked now. It says it’s in Hinckley. At the moment.

I had that problem as well. Nothing appeared on the DPD app and I only got a time slot later on in the day on checking the DPD website.
 
Mine went to PFD some time this morning - not sure exactly when because I only checked about midday.

Is there any chance of it still being dispatched today for delivery tomorrow? Most people seem to have spent 24 hours in PFD, but I'm hoping that won't be the case for me!
 
Got my slot booked for 10-11am with DPD tomorrow

If this is my last post, it’s been emotional guys. Thanks everyone for being there and sharing their info so we can gage our own deliveries. See y’all in 12 months time

How did you book it?
 
So that was my first and last time ordering an iPhone from Argos. Yesterday, all their systems (website, in store terminals, Sales hotline etc) say in stock for delivery today. I had a Paper receipt, email receipt and text message all saying instock, delivery today. Their systems say order dispatched this morning and I even have a tracking number. My card has been charged £1150.

After a 2 hour chat with Customer Services this morning, finally got to the bottom of it all. They don’ t have any iPhone X’s. They’ve never had any iPhone X’s other than the pre-orders fulfilled 3rd Nov. None are due this week. They’ve been taking orders and charging cards knowing they can’t fulfil. Cheek. They can’t even cancel my order as its in a pre-order status. They need to escalate to their finance department to refund my money who will action in the next 7 days. Pffft.

First and last time I use Argos for anything like this. However they have given me a £25 gift card as a sorry which is nice I s’pose.

I'm going to wait until you can just walk into an Apple Store and just buy one - far less hassle.

£25? You need to get back on the phone. I received £50 back to my card and I’m even keeping the phone I ordered from them
[doublepost=1510250221][/doublepost]Who thinks John Lewis will have stock to order tonight/tomorrow?
 
X 256G SG...... 0808 confirmation on 27/10.
Thanks mate.

Looking for some movement on a 256gb Silver in North London...08:10 Confirmation on 27/10. hopefully something soon, but i noticed that 256 Silver is extremely scarce esp in the London Area...dont think i've seen any come into stock for a while for collection...:(
 
Bastard UK Mail totaly failed to deliver my phone today. Out for delivery since 8:40 but no sign of it by the time I left work at 5pm. :mad:
 
This thread's really quietening down now that most pre-order people have their phones!

Still, it's been good to share and listen to other people's experiences. Normally I'm in a state of confusion over online orders and I generally have assumed I'm the only one.

the stragglers will be the late orders and the iUP members. Don't worry, i'll turn the lights out and lock the doors when i finally get mine :confused:
 
So the final nightmare of this whole thing is dpd hasn’t pulled through the company name of my address so my phone is being delivered to my name but no company address at a big business park... and I thought dpd was good.
So annoyed and dpd can’t change the address

I feel your pain! That was me on iPhone 6 day. No UK Mail by 5pm at my workplace, tweeted them and was told deliveries happen until 8pm, so I waited in my car at work until 8pm... nothing! I was livid!

Can't you adjust your delivery to a neighbour - and select your workplace?
 
To those of you who have had phone delivered by UKMail, on the morning of delivery - what options are you given as to changing delivery time/deliver to a specified ‘drop-off’ shop etc?

Thanks

I had UKMail for today, selected the pick up from depot option only to get there this evening to be told they HAVE to attempt delivery at your address once before you can pick it up as it is a high value item. I would bear this in mind buddy.

I had an iPad delivery for release day to work address one year, and it wasn’t delivered until well late after everyone had left. So spent the whole weekend knowing it was sitting in the delivery area until the mailroom processed it on the Monday morning.
These days I order it to home - I can wait until Friday evening to play with the new gadget, or worst case, if it arrives on Saturday I can still get it then.

That’s what I did in the end but the person at dpd warned that the driver might not be happy with leaving it at a neighbour in a business park! And can’t pick a hour slot as when I do it just reverts back to original address
 
Got the dispatch notification 1h ago! Did anyone else get DHL, and if so did you have to wait long before you could track your order? My tracking number hasn't been recognised yet. Thanks!
