No. You won't get information on delivery till Thursday afternoon at the earliest. One way to check (albeit fractionally earlier) is to copy and paste your order number. They usually use dpd. Another way to find out when we're likely to receive our iPhone is to mention what the delivery estimate was when you ordered. I'll get the ball rolling.....3rd November 0745. 256 black x.

My order for the 256gb Silver X was complete and confirmed at 7:59am which I had thought might guarantee me for friday 3rd delivery because it wasnt meant to even go live until 8:01am....  but seeing that so many people ordered since 7:30am now I am not so sure....

I took out a sim only deal about 2 months ago, on the proviso that I can upgrade through carphone warehouse when the iPhone X came out.

 

I have visited a carphone warehouse store and couldn't upgrade. The employee that served me rang up O2 and was told I have to wait 6 months before upgrading, even though the My O2 app says I can upgrade now.

 

I have since revisited the store I purchased the sim only from and the manager said there isn't anything he can do other than cancel my existing sim only contract.

 

Is this the case? I have also spoken to o2 customer service myself and the lady told me I can buy out the sim only for an early termination fee of £275!!! It's a 30d rolling sim. Surely there isn't an early termination fee.

 

At this point, I want to upgrade with carphone warehouse because their upgrade prices are cheaper than buying direct or as a new customer.

 

I'm quite unhappy as I have quite clearly been mis sold.

 

Can anyone help me? Should I be contacting OFCOM/FCA?

 

Thanks,

Will

I'm sure your be ok and beat the majority of the rush. I would say at least 75% people wouldnt of tried until the time o2 specified!

lol arent we all!

It will all depend on how may X's o2 managed to get hold of to supply their customers. I believe everyone who ordered before 8am will be the lucky ones for November 3rd and anywhere upto 0805 could be ok... after that, from reading news articles it sounds like a slim chance.
