You can upgrade your delivery slot by paying, before 10am, before 12am and 12-6pm. Look on the DPD app.

Don't think I have that option -- just diff address or date., IMG_CF724B74F764-1.jpg

This is gonna kill me getting the phone and not opening it
Sat I am at Apple swapping from full payment to IPP

Again, you can open it you can use it, you can active it.

For the last two years, I ordered online at full price, took it in with the box and phone in my pocket (obviously showed them the phone), they put the hip allocation through and then refunded me jobs a gooden.

great unless you fail the finance and are left with something you couldn't really afford to buy outright. I never understand why people want to take any risk with finances.

Those of you who ordered through EE and selected store collection, did you still get a notification from DPD for tracking?

That's another story. I know my credit is spot on so never a worry.

I won't be doing it this year as I got an amazing upgrade deal. I'll be returning the full price device.

When I’m handing my X back tomorrow presumably I just need to back it up and then wipe it, and remove it from my iCloud account and find my iPhone? Last year I kept my 7+ so could do the nice leisurely set up at home.

This is why Three suck for data. Their network is slow as there’s so many people using data.

I’d rather 100GB on EE at 100Mbps+ than unlimited on Three’s 10Mbps network.

Does anyone know if more reservations will go live on the app tomorrow? I asked in store the other day about reserving for IUP and was told more reservations will be available on the app at 8:01 tomorrow. Ive now decided to buy outright, but does anyone know if this is true? Am I likely to be able to pre order for store collection that day? Or if Im better off going to my store to queue - haven't done that for years, not sure if I'll be likely to get one.

From Saturday

Anybody actually upgraded their DPD to deliver when you want? don't think I need it that badly to pay £10 when I know it's coming tomorrow. I properly feel like this as I finish work at 7am tomorrow morning ha

Is there any actual reason you're doing this? Do you not have WiFi at your house? Just using cellular for the sake of it and aiming to use 10TB of data is pointless. For starters, it drains your battery faster, secondly, it congests the network for other people who actually have the NEED to use it.

Three need to stop offering unlimited if they ever want to fix those ungodly slow speeds some areas are plagued with.
