Hello Again.
After last years MONUMENTAL thread became the second most popular thread on the entire website, (Over 400k views & 6k replies) I thought I'd make another for this years iPhone release.
Just like last year let's use this thread purely for Tracking Preorders and any related discussion around it.
You can find a general discussion thread here: https://community.ee.co.uk/t5/Orders/Iphone-16-pro-16-pro-max-pre-order-thread-that-time-of-the-year...
Last year was a mess for EE, Let's hope things are different this year.
Solved! See the answer below or view the solution in context.

I just had to call up EE again after placing an order on Saturday & re reading through my contract it doesn’t state upgrade anytime plan and he put me on a flex plan which is not what I wanted or discussed, then had the cheek to charge me £10 for next day delivery guaranteed I would get it on release date but I knew the wasnt going to happen, so I ended up cancelling my order & re ordering but managed to get on the upgrade anytime plan which I’m happy about and upgrade my husbands phone at the same time. I got the 16 pro max 256gb in white the lady said looking at a 28+ time frame but I wasn’t expecting it quicker tbh. Not too happy about the change if the pro max size hope it isn’t a massive difference but don’t think I would of liked the smaller model 🤷🏼♀️🤷🏼♀️😂😂

I've seen a few people say they've been given anytime upgrade, but the advisor I spoke to made a point of telling me that it's been discontinued.
I'm on the full works plan as well, but I can't find anything about it on my new upgrade email. Plus if you search online it says that it was ended from 28th August.

Yeah I had a manager tell me the same yesterday. When I asked if it was on my contract they greatly avoided the question

Not sure if anyone else has noticed changes in MyEE / in your account, but my device is now showing as "Unknown" and that I have no data etc... all the stuff that usually happens indicating there may be progress behind the scenes 👀 🤞

Had the same issue as some others. Ordered on Friday and confirmed delivery on release date - got an xko number but no further info. Called up today, no record of my order so they placed it on the phone - back of the queue, minimum four week wait - she said had I called up yesterday I’d have had it on launch date!!! Really wasn’t happy but told nothing they could do!
16 Pro Max, black 128GB

Love the whole idea but for some reason I can’t input any details, even with the sheets app installed,
