Delivery expectations for iPhone 7?

[bexinthecity]

So when I placed my preorder (and paid off my refresh) this morning I saw that the estimate for the phone delivery would be up to 2 weeks for the Rose Gold plus 256GB (the one I ordered) but now when I go to the store to check whether I picked the right colour (the black really does look nice but I've decided I was right to go for Rose Gold) it says orders will be delivered on the 16th ... so those who preordered this morning have to wait 2 weeks but those who preorder right now don't? I'm confused :Z

O2 have requested a delivery, but not specified that it is for collection Thursday. That's probably why DPDs site says delivery for tomorrow.
Another mistake by o2.
Anyone else had their order marked as completed yet??

Your guess or can you quote a source for that information ?

That's a guess, but the same thing happened to me for the iPhone 6 Plus.

@Anonymous so as Psychoham was just "guessing", you'll no doubt let everybody know if it arrives as scheduled ?

Aren't we all just guessing? Trying to fish through the misinformation provided to us by o2 and Live Chat?

Pity you didn't post about it at the time.

Nope, didn't post about it at the time. Does that make me a liar? No. 

Made me too busy at the time.

Getting back to the point in hand, has anyone got a completed order yet?

[Anonymous]

yep will do

bit hard to place the order, tried for almost 30min.

First order website crashed and the payment is still pending on my bank account, but I believe I'll get it back soon (I hope).

Then I got an e-mail to complete my order once I've completed the order for the second time and got tons of emails from O2 and the order confirmation number and store to pickup.

Ignoring all of that, I'm not naive, the 9th 8:45 was a busy time for O2 and customers, I understand some things.

My main issue is... iPhone 7 Plus 128 JetBlack ordered on the 9th (8:45, finished at 9:20) only to be available on the 21st October, thats just sad.
