website crashes one word Joke

I can not believe that with all the time you have had to prepare and knowledge of how many people will be trying to pre order you still cant get your IT ready. NOT WORKING. GATEWAY ERROR 502. Sort it out or buying elsewhere.

but from what I know from someone who works in the industry, basically apple set all the pricing.

if you look at the networks, all the tariffs are pratically the same, always are. they go on about rewarding customers, reward the ones who want an iphone by giving us the information to enable us to make a decision, also use some of the millions they'll be making from this launch to invest in a more robust platform so it doesn't crumple 15 seconds after the information appears on the site.

ARE YOU GUYS FOR REAL?

Website crashes, phone lines just cut you off, chat unavailable.

It's not even like you weren't expecting this rush today of all days????

So you didn't think of opening up extra phone lines, maybe getting some extra bandwidth for the site, putting some extra bods on Chat?????

Am going to cancel contract with you guys and go elsewhere! It really is a joke!

What contract have you got through the Apple store or have you purchased it sim free ?

Just joined this thread...now leaving... as it is again Apple related..

[Anonymous]

Not really it's O2 who cannot sort out their services, not apples fault for realeasing a product that everyone wants, never seem to have this furore with Samsung or LG or Sony

Talk about fail to prepare, prepare to fail. Surely tyu must have known your systems were going to be under pressure today and they simply cant cope. Cant order the iphone on your website or when you call in as all your systems have crashed. One word - incompetent!
