I’ve reserved one via iup already (already on it with the X). I assume I can just give them the X and then start a new one with iPhone payments.
Got a tip for us?

Is there anyone with an X or an X-sized phone who would like a lightly used Otterbox Symmetry case in the muted waters colourway? It doesn't fit on my watch/phone stand so haven't really used it and don't know anyone with an X.

I think I may be on the best deal here
My Three sim-only tariff: AYCE Data + AYCE Texts + 200 mins. Cost: £7 pm
Financially, perhaps. Having used the Three network, I'd rather pay double for a network that actually allows me to use the bloody phone without WiFi. You might have a better experience in your location, but down here, I may as well go sim-free and just use WiFi when available.
hahah Same here three always sell cheap mobile phone contracts or AYCE sim contracts for less than £7 what happens the network goes downhill reason why no money to upgrade with all these cheap prices.
Awful network been with three since 2014 the network gone downhill speeds are slow calls dropouts customer service is terrible.
What the point of AYCE data if you cannot use it at all hence why three prices are so cheap.
Agreed. I was pleased with my Three SIM only deal. 4G, solid signal, max 5 bars reception, brilliant - or so I thought, until a friend on EE and I both did a speed test. Same location, both using a Samsung phones. I was getting about 2Mbps download and less than 1Mbps upload on Three and he was getting over 60Mbps download and about 12Mbps upload on EE. My latest speed test on my new EE contract showed 96.2Mbps download speed.
Isn't one of the terms of the iUP, that when you hand it back you need to go back on the iUP? Not iPhone payments?
Apple usually use either DPD or UKMail for iPhones.
A signature is definitely required.
I left three UK after 8 years moved to EE what a different experience I'm having right now.
I'm having no speed issue no bloody me using three WiFi to call home.
No awful customer service with EE at least they understand you.
With three customer service they are a big nightmare asking for my PAC code this week took me 40 plus minutes they even tried to ask me to stay for two months free if I don't use my PAC code within the last day.
Sellout.

Yes. The offer code is MJWTM. Is all on their page.
It's also worth mentioning that if you sign up using Topcashback there's a chance you'll get something back off them too.
I've just signed up for a Very account for the 10% discount via there & it's tracked already.
Fingers crossed it all goes to plan
I have ordered one so it should be here in a couple of days. I will let you know more detailed thoughts when I get it. I had a look at one whilst in the US and it seemed really nicely built and will look good on my desk. I did not buy it at the time because it had a US plug.
I do have a cheap Anker pad but I have mostly bought Mophie chargers as the build quality was a lot better and they have been rock solid over the last year. They started off at 55 quid so I don’t mind paying more if it looks and feels good.
I ordered the iCarez (2,5D) one from Amazon (link: https://www.amazon.com/iCarez-Cover...cessories&sr=1-5-fkmrnull&ref=sr_1_fkmrnull_5)
Had the 3D one for the iPhone X and loved it. Only reason I'm now going for 2,5D is because it's more case friendly if I want to get a non-Apple case in the long run.
I am gonna get the Belkin fitted in store next week
I had the Belkin one at the beginning but wasn't happy since the end of the protector was right where I needed to swipe up so it wasn't an as smooth experience as it could be, haha!
That would be great thank you. It looks really good I wish it came in black as well but I would still get it in white. I know there are cheaper ones on Amazon which have been recommended too I like the design of this one and I know it is a good and trustworthy brand.
Has anyone bought from Very before for release day delivery ? I have a recollection that they didn’t, er, deliver last year on promises - might be confusing them with someone else though.
No don't think so. Judging from previous years that doesn't happen before Wednesday. Which makes sense when it is due on Friday.
For me last year, they refunded my x to a gift card first and then straight away scanned the phone back in for an IUP purchase. I hadn’t opened it, or removed and seals etc. After that was done they then refunded the gift card back to my credit card.
The reason for the gift card was so if I couldn’t sign up to IUP, I could just use the gift card to buy it back. Rather than getting ‘two’ credit card charges whilst the refund was processed by my bank.
All really helpful in store and done in 15 mins
