Given there are people on this forum who have been waiting since September for their orders it is unlikely it will be in stock and you will probably be waiting a number of weeks

You can check live stock here but as stated, expect to wait weeks to reach the top of the queue http://iphonestockchecker.co.uk/

There have been reports about new customers getting the phone within days but I guess you would have to be really lucky.

I thought only Apple had stocks of the 7 plus so @Anonymous could be in for a very long wait

There is a grand total of 1 in the Enterprise Channel for the exact model that the Ops is looking for so that's 1 across all none Apple direct channels....

Apple direct is on a next day delivery and same day pickup..

And if the rumors coming out of Cupertino are to believed they are cutting production in Q1 2017 of the iPhone 7 / 7 Plus models, so this is only going to get worse...

Time to find an friend .. sorry an Enterprise contact at Apple

They were already starting to scale back production about a month ago

Unless they are supplying apple stores.

That's all they are supplying if I assume correctly just not the networks

Re: iphone order

Yeah looks like it. They obviously want all the sales to themselves.

Surely that will halve their profits & they wouldn't cope with demand

Re: iphone order

Not with a combination of store and online sales, I would think they will cope ok.

I cannot belive it's been more than 3 months and still a shortage. So i ordered JB 128 Iphone 7 plus on Christmas day it said instock when i ordered and then i queried my order status on 27th in which time i spoke to three seperate chat advisors who all said it was depsatched. So waited all day yesteday for my delivery then spoke to someone on live chat again who told me it was out of stock.

Does anyone know about o2's deliveries? Do Apple send them from California or do Apple stores in the UK just pass stock onto o2? Can't believe people are still waiting for orders from September. So shocking

It's all down to when apple choose to release them to networks.
As said, check here http://iphonestockchecker.co.uk/

@Anonymous O2 do not have a live stock system so it would say in stock but most likely not at all. You could try your luck Instore or going to Apple themselves as they seem to have all the iPhone 7 & 7+ stock

Very tempting but during the credit check when i ordered online it asked for £150 deposit. If i cancel the order it might not be accepted next time around but at the moment i've been accepted and just awaiting despatch

Well as long as you don't mind the wait.....

I posted the link at the start of the month about Apple scaling back production of the iPhone 7 ....Just searched for it again and there are now loads of articles stating the same. This was the one I posted..http://www.macrumors.com/2016/12/01/apple-reduces-iphone-7-orders/
