Nice I get only 60mb @ 3am and 9am to 9pm 1mb or 3mb
where do you live? in a forest lol
I see manchester are you in the city centre with that speedtest.

No, must be about 10 miles out from the city centre, about a third of the way to Liverpool, in a village. Not done a test for a few months, last time it was around 50mbps, so really pleased with the boost. Will have to do another couple of tests during tomorrow to see how it holds out.

Another reason I move to EE four years ago I don't really trust three that why I had a long think today and decide to call EE one last time.
2014 On the ONE PLAN contract for £15 a month they booted me off it and move me to a £30 expensive sim plan hoping they don't do the same to you sellling you a cheap sim deal and decide to kick you off to a higher tariff.

The one plan was an old and legacy plan that was phased out to all customers. I’ve been put on the very latest tariffs (advanced plan, 30GB hotspot, go binge, go roam around the world etc) so I’m confident I’ll be fine for years to come.

But whatever suits you as an individual is what matters

Hope UNLIMITED DATA remains for you when they launch 5G in the future for me.
I cannot see that happening for a business point of view is sucide once all heavy users downloading Tb's cancelling home broadband for cheap 5G. Good luck lol

I got removed from one plan too from £15 a month to a £27 8gb. I remember that letter I still have it says you have 30 days to accept this new plan or we will cancel your contract and provide you with a PAC code. lol

Seems like they are upto the same tricks with three overselling cheap phone contracts and sim plans deals once they gain an extra million customers the network starting to struggle with capacity.
Things need to change we kick off the low paying customer sim only tariff first send letters make them pay double.

Sticking with 64gb gone for the Max, I always used to put all my music on my phone but now I just use Apple Music.

£99 a year is better value than more storage,

Got an 8+ and still got 30gb free!

Well, I’ve been saving all year and thought, what the hell, bagged a 256 XS Plus and a Series 4 watch too. Looking forward to the experience

 

[CD3660]

Have you sold to envirophone before?

Is it an easy process?

They’ve sent me a package to send to them. They also extended the date to send my x to 21/09. They are a reputable company.

I have dealt with Envirofone for several years, and as Dave says they are a reputable company.

As long as your phone is in good condition you should get what they quote at the outset.

 

[barca bear]

I wasn’t going to upgrade from my 7 plus 256gb but after viewing deals have decided to take 30gb data and unlimited calls/texts with EE for the XS 256gb at £38 p/m with £540 upfront. Selling my current phone for £375 so my upfront cost is only £175. I’m pretty happy with that.

 

[Manda]

How did you get that deal can I ask with EE.

 

[Furzul]

Just had a look on the Apple website. If you order an iPhone today (Saturday) the longest delivery date I can find is 25/9/18-2/10/18. Pretty sure last year the delivery date had moved out to about 6 weeks in a couple of hours on pre-order day. Either they have much more stock or a lot less demand,or every body is waiting for the XR.

Multiple deals on here...

Still thinking about getting a X’s Max, I’m going to collect my s4 Watch next Friday from the the Apple Store at 8:30-9am. What do you think the chances are of having them in stock for Launch day? Thanks

 

[Furzul]

Although you can still buy them from Apple for delivery on the 21st, people are still trying to sell them for silly prices on EBay. Perhaps the scalpers will take a big hit this year. Hope so anyway.

Mine is so I’m going to lock in a price with them too. Thanks.

Edit: Maxima are offering £10 more so I’ll stick with them. I’ve got the price locked in for 14 days.

What i have found in the past with EE, is if you phone them up and either tell them how much you are willing to pay upfront and then see what they can do or say you would like to pay so much per month with this much data what would the up front cost be and then they give you a few options.

I think I paid £400 up front for my 7 Plus and got the max plan 10GB of data for £41 a month.

O2 would never do this.

You'd be surprised. If your not locked in, tell them your thinking of leaving. You'll get a better than advertised deal for sure.

I’ve never forgiven O2 for the debacle over my 7 Plus back then. Ordered at 8am on pre-order day, and my bro ordered around 16.30-17 on pre-order day. His arrived launch day and mine still hadn’t arrived a week later. I then went with Apple upgrade. Still on my 30GB refresh tariff. They sold me a “good deal” SIM only, but messed it up as I specifically said to about 5 sales people that I must maintain sharing capabilities and I didn’t believe you could have sharing on SIM only. They told me I could so I swapped. Lost my sharing and got told by support that you can’t have sharing on SIM only. Really kicked off at them all over social media and they had to get “special authorisation” to roll me back to my refresh plan as it was an old plan and had to be created specially again, apparently. So inept.

The more I think about it, the more I want to go down the iPhone payments option. I am in love with the new watch and I also want that. I might get the max on the iPhone payments option, saving me £10 a month and then also get the watch on finance.

Finance on a phone and a watch? I'd strongly recommend against it!

I think that you have every chance of getting what you want, with the exception possibly of certain Max models (i.e. colour / storage combinations).

 

[Mic2904]

Completely forgot to ask: Does anyone know if my case for the iPhone X will fit the Xs?

 

[mysteryman]

iPhone and watch ordered with phone ready for delivery on Friday and watch the following week. Should be a nice upgrade from my current 6s plus and gen 0 watch.

Wonder what the chances are of the watch being delivered sooner than estimated.
