I've done this a few times and thought it would be bad to break tradition, so wanted to create a thread for people to discuss their preorders etc as we all wait for our new iPhones.

Anyone else getting multiple comms and chasers to return their trade-in, despite no indication that the upgrade (14 pro max DP) is going to materialise any time soon?

Nope mine doesn’t say Monday now either but still won’t let me upgrade the delivery to Saturday morning.
I’ve just had the flurry of texts from EE to say my plan has changed and my insurance has been removed. Seems a bit weird to remove my insurance as I’ll still be using this phone until at least Monday!

I ordered my Pro max 512 in Space black on the 10th @ 9am. I then phoned up on the 13th as they has messed up my existing plan & got told the order for my phone hadn't even been placed. I then went through the order with the new advisor.
Still waiting for any updates - my tracking doesn't work. I feel like I really should have got it from Apple like I usually do!
Anybody else ordered on the 13th and got their Black 512 Pro max yet? I'm losing hope in getting it anytime soon 😞

I pre-ordered on the 10th Sept but someone at call centre put a wrong delivery address so had to be re-placed again on the 12th Sept. by a call centre agent ( a new order number was given - starts with 002...) I was told that my phone (iPhone 14 Pro max) would be delivered on the launch date, 16th Sept. It never did. I'd let it slide because i knew how busy it was for them.
I waited another week. I'd tracked my order on the website's tracker using my new 002... order number and it showed that it was due for a dispatch in 24 hours. I rang the call centre again to get an understanding of delivery timeframe and they asked for the xko ref number (not sure why they never asked for the 002... order number).
The lady then said that the order was due to be delivered the following day - great! i was excited - she even said that if i dont hear anything the following day, ring back on the same number.
The next day happened, and still didn't get any texts or notifications. As instructed, I rang back the same number and got through to someone who sounded like she didn't want to help. She asked for the xko number (again) and said that my phone will be delivered 3 weeks from 12th Sept? ... ehh?! I was very confused!
Frustrated with the wrong information I was given, I decided to go to the store to get a better understanding and the guy there had said (after checking) my phone hadn't been delivered and he didn't know when it will be delivered (he didn't even take any details off me).
Fast forward to now, the order tracker on the website says the order has been dispatched. Now fingers crossed it will be delivered soon.
I guess the bigger issue here is whether the phone will be delivered any sooner or not, but it's more of the information given by the customer service team has been very confusing (and Im a brand new EE customer too) so it's kind of off-putting!
I wonder if anyone else has faced/facing the same?

If my plan has updated, it did about 20 mins ago, is my phone close to getting here?

I placed my order evening of the 12th and have just had a notification from DPD that it will be delivered on Monday 26th. I ordered 14 pro max 128gb black, I was told when I placed the order that it would be 28 days till delivery so things are looking better for those others waiting!

I ordered the exact same phone on the 9th and absolutely no contact from ee at all as yet i called a few times before the 16th and every advisor promised it would arrive in the 16th i listed my 12 pro max on ebay for that reason, sold it, got paid and had to refund the guy today as he wont wait any longer
