iPhone 16 & 16 Pro Preorder Tracking Thread

[Equil]

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.

Ordered the 256gb PM Desert (thinking would be a less popular colour) on 21st. Any ideas when I should expect it? I was told would be within 28 days at the time of ordering. I’m too impatient for this 😂

Ordered 16 PM 256GB BT on 24/09.

DPD text with PIN received today at 10pm. 

EE tracker still remains on "Awaiting confirmation".

Mine did same

October88, that's nonsense, utter nonsense.

I've requested call recordings before from EE and received them. As someone else has stated, even EE tell you that you are entitled to them on their own website. I'm not sure why you felt the need to reply so aggressively 😂

Before going on a public forum and trying to berate someone (for providing perfectly accurate information) in future, I would advise that you educate yourself.

Have a lovely day.

iPhone 16 PM 215gb in DT was ordered on the phone on the 22nd September.

No updates till earlier today when I got an email saying I should start preparing my current phone for trade in. I was baffled while reading it because I never agreed to trade in my phone as I usually just keep them or hand them down once my contract ends.

Rang EE who said it was a mistake and they were confused how it even happened and apparently the only way to fix it was to cancel my current order and Remake a new one! 
fantastically well done as always EE! 🙄

I've had a similar text stating about a trade in, but given how long it's taken so far, I won't be saying anything until the bloody phone is in my possession.

Ordered 256 black 16 pro max late on 29th September, DPD text my pin last night and phone received at their depot this morning. I expect I’ll get in the next 2/3 days. Wasn’t too bad a wait when I was told 28 days!

[Nlf]

DPD just text - it’s arriving today!

This is what I don’t get how’s someone ordered on the 29th and got there’s before me first come first serve is a lie I ordered on the 20/09/24 and heard absolutely nothing
