I did this. Owed Barclays £639, got £114 back on AC+ and locked in £650 with MM so this is £125 in my pocket. Unfortunately tho I got turned down today on iUP which I was not happy about as I have a perfect credit rating so I was a little irate. I initially paid the £1249 upfront but I am returning it tomorrow as I just upgraded my sim only deal with O2 for £62.50 per month which is cheaper than iUP without a sim only contract on top of it...
Got a tip for us?

This display is gorgeous. It's my first device with OLED. How I could live without it? It's amazing, so crisp!
My order is being prepared for dispatch! (delivery estimate is 25th September - 2nd October)
I popped in apple at the bullring around 6ish and they had most of the series 4 watches in stock and all but the smaller capacity gold iPhones in stock. Very surprised. No queues outside either, you could literally just walk in and buy them. Don’t know whether that’s apple on form or the fact that demand hasn’t been amazing?!?
Update Guys phoned up 3uk customer service is useless took me 70 minutes to cancel a new contract.
They keep telling me London speed will be fix next month yeah right.
this phone getting pickup on Monday morning moving back to EE for faster speed and better customer service.

Both I’d say. For a s year it’s a pretty quiet one. Many who how’s splashed a grand last year are probably not feeling it’s worth the change
They are cowboys they tried to sell me out and lower my contract down to £55 from £59 for staying 24 months. That how they operate in india I think you cannot lower someone contract and make them stay. lol
Bloody Dodgy company anyone joining three uk don't bad news and bad network,speeds everything to customer service.
I was with them for a while but their speeds suffered in London so I changed to EE last year. Must better call
WOW read three uk facebook page madness iPhone no deliveries today no text or email. https://www.facebook.com/pg/ThreeUK/posts/?ref=page_internal
I didn't have problems with Three in the country... (live in Scotland) But as soon I was abroad, the signal was constrained to 3G and the internet was really slow... Also localization services didn't work well. I don't know why other phones worked od the same network with full speed. Because they were native? My polish card (Orange) works well everywhere.
New contract is on Vodafone, we will see how it goes...

What app are you using there for Macrumors?
Quick question....!
When buying Apps via the App Store on the XS, as well as the phone going through the usual Face ID process, it also asks me to double click the power button before the app will start to download?!
Does it do this for every app because it’s quite annoying to have to double click the power button every time I buy an app? Is there a way to turn this off?

Don’t forget the EE 20% off code: employee20hsd741
I was under the impression that PayPay Credit offers 0% Finance (as shown on their website - perhaps for new customers only?) but upon going through the process, it seems that both PayPal and Barclays both do 14.9% interest only....?
Man, UKMail have made themselves look really stupid!
They did not turn up and then claimed that “delivery attempted”.
Hmmmm
1. No card
2. Nobody at the door as proven by security cameras
3. “View event” showed the wrong street name, wrong post code, wrong Town and wrong county
Muppets!
If they said, traffic caused delays or something... fair enough... but why lie?

I bought the Belkin glass protector which Apple provide - they installed it on my XS in store using their applicator tool, which results in a 100% perfect install. Had that done to my 8 Plus last year and the protector lasted all year without a single blemish.
Did cost £29.95 though.....!
