Mines still saying the same as you. I think it might be sometime today too

Judging by the fact I usually got texts on the Thursday evening, I assume they don’t collect them until the end of the working day today. So would expect it then?

Happy DPD update day 🙂 exciting isn’t it? X

Yeah should 100% be today now so they can be delivered tomorrow.
Normally in the past I’d get that DPD notification the day before then during the night you’d be able to track the parcel as it made its way north then was out for delivery in the day. Seems EE are on the ball this year getting all the orders prepped then they’ll ship them today.
Honestly I’m still in shock how smooth this is going.. we are actually going to have our phones on Release Day!! 🤯🤯 Remember the 15 and the 14 🫣🫣🫣

The last few EE iPhone and even Apple Watch orders were a disaster, with missing orders or trackers not working, even having the new phone in my hand and then EE saying it's been dispatched 😄
This year it's been really smooth; the site went live pretty much dead on at 1pm, the order on the site went really smooth, and the email order confirmation was received at 1:02pm. Text confirming the iPhone model with a new agreement on Sunday, so at least I knew it was processed ok. The XKO order number was actually trackable online this year, a first for me, and then a DPD pin yesterday.
It's a hell of an improvement over the last few years.

Reduced demand this year?
Lots of people whi’d usually get a Pro Max will he wsiting for the Duo.
It does feel it’s going better with Apple splitting the release dates.

I think that’s what it is. I can’t believe how much better it’s been compared to the last three years. Its a lot smoother this year that’s for sure

I got my notification Tuesday 😂
like I dunno if it’s because people will want the Duo or if they have just done better this year.

Waiting for my plan to change to see if my discounts really have been applied or whether I'm going to have to spend months arguing for them 😄
