Just keep it. Also you can take the phone to apple for repair or replacement regardless of where you bought the phone.
Hmm but would much rather jump aboard the the upgrade programme or even 0% payment, wonder If I'd be eligable for BNPL if worse comes to worst.
Thinking of just going in an applying for the upgrade programme and seeing what happens then go from there.
Reduced the outstanding credit balance by £300 with hopes it'll look better for the credit check, I still technically owe just under 500 for the iPhone atm, first payment due next month.
EDIT: You know what you might be right think I'll just keep it, I have liked another 2 weeks to return anyway should it be faulty. Guess i'll be finally opening the box this weekend.
