Oh.
In that case, could you let Apple know so they can update their support pages.
Cheers!
I’ve always been specifically told to remove from iCloud. When my 7+ got smashed to f*ck I had to do it online and they checked it was done at the Genius Bar before they gave me a new one.

So who’s going to win this thread this year? My money is on someone doing a store pickup
Definitely store pick up.

How did you get this to come up? Mine says it’s our for delivery, but doesn’t give an indication on how long / how many stops are before me
You should get a text soon, once they’ve confirmed your slot they’ll know your delivery number, you’ll then see the map thingy.

Mine hasn't moved give it until tomorrow then I cancel and order from carphone warehouse.

I thought about this as I'm in a similar position... But don't CPW iPhones lock to their first SIM though, then networks have their own rules about unlocking... Which is ludicrous for something you buy outright?

I know you can put in a Three SIM and get Three to unlock for free at any time, but it still takes days... (Not an issue if you're with Three, but I left them for EE a little while back)... By which time the phone from Apple would have arrived anyway?

I'm really hoping for a 24th delivery, but if the status doesn't change today I'm not sure that will happen... :(

Anyone’s delivery UK Mail in Hemel Hampstead at 1:4am. When it’s supposed to be closer to me? I’m in east London......should I be worried?

CPW don’t lock their phones anymore.

At the Birmingham store. About 10 people in the reservation queue and 5 or so in the standby queue.

Soon...
Interesting, if it stays that way, I wonder if they will let walk-ins in sooner than 9am (I was there around 6:45 and was told he can book me in for 9am)

My UKMail tracking was hit and miss last year. One minute it would say what drop the driver was up to then the next it would just say out for delivery.

Hopefully buying from John Lewis today.

Do people think 64GB memory will be too small? Ive always had 128GB and kept 5000+ photos on my phone

What insurance are people using, other than Apple care?

My company uses Perkbox and there’s an offer on there for free insurance from Mobiru, I’ve heard much about them and don’t know if I should go for it or not.

I'm currently in the queue. Got a walk in gold 64gb xs max - the manager just told security they'll be starting soon. Got a slot for 8:30 but told will be likely before. Stock of the max is short as predicted.

I pay 79p per month for iCloud storage and it all just lives on there.

I’ve used 21gb of my 128, so figured the 64 was plenty.
