I would say it’s very unlikely you’ll get it Friday but it does depend on what you went with etc

EE struggle every year with Apple preorders but I would be preparing to wait for a week or two

Similar here. I’ve got an Apple Watch order and an iPhone order so when the did updates start coming I’m gonna be app stalking the driver like you wouldn’t believe 😆

I’m dreading Friday 😂 well and Thursday. See when I ordered phone on Sunday it said expected on release date so who knows. I think I’m at least expecting my AirPods? Maybe 😂

I upgraded online on the 12th at 1:04pm, iPhone 17 pro max in orange, received an XKO number but couldn’t track so I called up Saturday 13th and they “built the order up” and sent me a confirmation number starting with 00 but on tracking it doesn’t really say much with regards to a date, is this normal?

Can’t see the picture but if it says Expected Delivery Date: Awaiting Confirmation that’s perfectly normal

I’m pretty same story as yourself my tracking is the same, previous years it will move along as stuff happens just a waiting game now

Hi, that’s exactly what it says, thanks!

Sometimes it’ll change sometimes it won’t. I’ve had the new phone in my hand & it hasn’t updated. Best thing to do if you haven’t, is download the DPD app. That will update you before EE

One thing I’ve never actually understood from Apple is why are we actually preordering? 🤣 preorder usually means you get something on the date of release, not 14-21 days later! Why not just release the phones on the preorder day and ship straight away and those have to wait, have to wait? What is this week of anxiety for!….unless someone has a completely logical and understandable reason haha

At least it’s not just the UK that has to deal with this
