Hey Guys,
Just wanted to create a separate thread from the Discussion thread to specifically discuss EE Preorder tracking.
I think it's always helpful/reassuring to keep each other updated on the latest when it comes to this time of year, especially with EE's not-so-great track record on keeping customers informed about their preorders.

Don't forget they won't be paying the selling price either!, so even more profit. But at the end of the day, they are a business and need to make a profit.

I reckon it’s to pay for the “interest free” part. At least O2 and GiffGaff charge more too.

I rang today considering swapping from 512 NT to the 512 blue. Was told although their system showed stock, the guy could not guarantee there would still be stock after he cancelled my order and started a new order. Decided not to take the risk.
seems their own staff are about as confident in their systems as we are.

Well, i had enough waiting for my 1 TB black. so i phoned up and canceled it. and just like some others got the blue 512.( I use a case anyhow so colour really wasn't a thing) dispatch within 3 days i was told.
New order number 0033609
We shall see.

Most people forget the main thing is all telecom providers take a greater risk. ie people taking contracts out and then selling the phone and not paying for it. They do not block the phones. So they loose there money.

That’s my 512Gb Blue Titanium arrived from EE - swapped from 256Gb Blue order on Friday, and it was here around 3pm yesterday, after being quoted 3 days - so a nice surprise! Worked out as costing me around £2 more per month over the 256Gb since I dropped my data down to 25Gb since I realistically don’t use more than 10Gb any given month.
Definitely not the biggest upgrade from the 13 Pro Max, but it’s noticeably lighter, feels better when caseless, and the Blue Titanium is a pretty close colour match to my Midnight MacBook Air 15, and the 512Gb will come in handy when filming non HDR work stuff, so it’s not total overkill in my case anyways.
Glad the waiting game is over for me, and hope everyone else gets their orders ASAP.

I did the same as you but yesterday so hopefully it will be here by Tuesday.

Also, @Customer1985 , There is no-one after you who has received their order, just yet. (Based on the data we have collated)
