Other UK iPhone (2018) XS/XS Max/XR Pre-Orders and Dispatch Thread

[Sarah Jones 799]

This is why I left 3uk for EE three network is full of leeches it's like snail 56k dailup everyday still using a 3uk pay and go sim card speeds this afternoon was 0.04mb no joke so slow.

I do blame 3uk for advertising network built for data.

It’s more likely they just run out of how many orders they can physically deliver in that timeframe

Not in Stroud. Just farmers around here . The person on the phone was very specific there was a restriction set by Apple, she claims she read the note directly

It's snails speed tonight on three uk 2mb now guessing they only have 10 million customers this is nuts compare to O2 with 25 + million customers with faster speed than 3uk.

Did you buy it outright?

Yeah I did mate.

 

[Apple Mac Daz]

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.

No issue on the finance only reason it’s on a credit card all slots were taken in both Manchester stores so my only option was delivery

 

[gadgets.loco]

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

Yes, a bit confusing though as I could not find the address it will delivered to so I can confirm it is really going to the designated store.

 

[kevoo_100]

Should I cancel and order from car phone warehouse?

Place an order with cpw before 9pm for next day and cancel your order once you have it tomorrow.

This is the same problem I had. Although when I track it via DPD, the ‘deliver to a neighbour’ has all the shops on the same row as the EE store, so fingers crossed.

Haha Omarmohammed lives near me too I had sub 1 meg this morning @ 7am crazy how congested the network is.

Even three T&C says you are allow to use upto 1000gb mobile data each month.
Who ever wrote this T&C must be crazy 1000gb. People will take advantage of this.

DPD app has just updated with tracking number appearing. Says on o2 its UK Mail but the same tracking number is on the DPD app

I won't be in anyway until Sunday so I could wait until Saturday night and if no movement then cancel and order from them.

DPD for me, I would have pull my hair already if it was UKMail, they are rubbish.

Thanks mate. In the UKMail camp here

BEFORE you erase all, you need to deregister your device from iCloud, by removing 'Find my iphone'.
Settings/icloud..

Pretty sure erasing it will ask for you to do so.

If not do this!

Ladies and gentlemen, we're almost there.
Within 24 hours, we'll have our brand new shiny iPhones and this forum will be much more quiet haha.

I am sorry man for what I said, but I honestly always had very bad services, never in time, never knock on the door or press the bell, and the person that's delivering is as if they hate their job and don't care when facing a customer, even their customer service line is rude, however never had any issue with DPD or UPS, always excellent service.

Can't find an answer to this anywhere but does anyone know what the earliest possible time for a DPD delivery? Is it 8 or earlier?
[doublepost=1537473302][/doublepost]Also, my "top tip"

If you can afford it, start now putting £50 a month into a "iPhone upgrade" account. Makes things a lot more affordable each year. As I say, if you can afford it.

Their shift start @ 7am and get their vans ready, and drive off by 8am~8:30am and delivery start 9am (don't quote me however).

[sparkie1984]

I think for once I am going to ask a probably common question....

If I got declined for the iUP can I pay outright? Or is the stock reserved purely for the iUP?

I would rather the iUP but thinking of what my options are as after reading around loads seem to fail.

 

[omarmohammed]

But 3UK is cheap and allow me to use this much data no problems upto 1000gb mobile data a month.
