Put as many complaints in as you can, They should not be running Hard Credit Checks on you and send you promotions after not sending you the device

IMPORTANT for those that have the iPhone 14 and use a cellular Apple watch.

The iPhone 14 can take up to 8 e-sims and ONE physical SIM, if you have your main phone number on an e-sim and add a cellular watch plan that then counts as 2 e-sims, you can only ever have 2 lines working at once on the iPhone 14 which isn't a problem at the moment, you can also add up to 8 e-sims and switch them on and off to take into account which ones you want to use.

BUT the problem arises when you put in a physical SIM like I did today to use on a cruise I'm going on tomorrow to use for a better data plan, and that is that you CANNOT have more than ONE e-sim on your phone at ANYTIME if you ALSO have a physical sim in, SO if you do as I did and put your holiday SIM in it made you delete either your watch e-sim or main phone e-sim. I contacted Apple and after speaking to 3 advisors ended up in the higher technical department and they confirmed that.

SO if you you have an e-sim as your main sim and want to have the freedom of using a physical sim then you CANNOT have any other e-sim including an Apple watch working on cellular, once you add your physical Sim and select remove say Apple watch e-sim its gone, it's not kept to be put back on bu you its deleted from the device, the only way to get it back is to contact your provider which is a pain, so be warned, but better to know now than find out later like I did as depending on usage of a physical sim it may determine your choice of Apple watch

I haven't seem that mentioned anywhere else but now you know

can't leave a 0/5 review. 1 star seems far too generous. (edited)

Anyone actually got a dispatch confirmation?

Has anyone looked at their welcome to 3 notice in detail?
It's not a straightforward £14 a month contract, it's £34 with two discounts of £5 and one of £15.
This means any price increases are based on the £34 and then £5 and £15 will be discounted.
So probably a 13-14% increase, which means in April it will be £18.76 or thereabouts (assuming they apply full CPI rate) a 34% increase for those of us on £14 tariff.

Congratulations to those that got this though I’m a bit peeved that I ordered it pretty promptly at 17.40 on the 31st Jan, they took the money, passed the credit checks yesterday and it was supposed to be delivered today and I’ve now just got a Canx email saying it was an error on the website and I’ll get my money back in 3-5 days and my order has disappeared online.

For those who received "a credit check has not been performed" message, was it actually true? (edited)

Mine arrived . Blue colour 128GB . It’s a mis-price they said . I see the 10 or so loud mouths saying you won’t get it , it’s a mis-price . No way they will honour this ect have gone very quiet . (edited)

This seems an unbelievable deal

Sorry to be negative but definitely a mistake. The ones who have ordered you ain’t getting nothing

I don't plan on keeping the device as I was waiting for the iPhone 15 Pro so I will be selling the device. Does anyone know if the handset is unlocked? I wouldn't want to sell with the incorrect information.

Ordered at 12 yesterday, and it's out for delivery today by DPD.

£249 handset price, purple colour was what I went with. I can only assume I got lucky because purple is probably less popular so there was more stock? (edited)

Ordered a blue one not fussed either way if I get or not as got a 13 pro max purchased outright . HUKD you’ve done it again another unnecessary purchase
Will cancel my Lebara sim paying 8pm if this comes through . If I get rejected it will save me some money anyone know if the phones will be unlocked ??

Wish I could order one right now. Not willing to pay that upfront price.

Any help with the following on the checkout page - i would like to keep my number -
Unable to continue
Unfortunately on Three we cannot keep your existing number. If you want to keep your number you'll have to speak to their customer care team directly, alternatively you can visit our range of new contract deals on O2 or Vodafone

Can anyone recommend any good cases?

It seems anyone who ordered today got theirs cancelled. I guess you had to have ordered it yesterday

Would not recommend or advise anyone to buy any iPhones from Mobile Phones Direct. They use iPhones from different regions to either lower the price, or miss sell and don't make it clear. If you buy and then realise you've been sold one for a different region, trying to get your money back is a nightmare. Avoid like the plague.

It's back for £1,249 with unlimited data this time if anyone needs one once they have woken up 1 - 2 weeks delay as apparently they sold quite a few on the last 18hrs

Trying to checkout and have ticked the box to say I want to leave my current network. This stops the order.

Can I just leave that bit out and give them a pac code from my current provider when it comes?

Great deal! Just tried but can’t switch and keep number from 02 so have to pass

Since 'Leaving Network' issue mentioned above, called the customer service, she confirmed the deal is genuine, ordered over the phone, got confirmation email- says Pending. (If approved, I missed the TCB of £34).

Thanks op, any good deals on iPhone 14 pro thnx

Looking for a deal for iPhone 14 pro or pro max on contract

So the warehouse status still shows the order as ‘pending’. Anyone got an order not still showing pending?

Received confirmation 7pm no further update

Possibly the most underwhelming iPhone release in living memory, so not a surprise selling cheap

Any idea how much this will actually cost? I know it says £585 but there will be a price increase each April right?

just rang them and they confirmed its now been pulled. was a flash deal for a few hours last night.

I had an opportunity to buy but kept getting the message
'Your address details given may not match the address registered with your bank'

Don't understand why.

How do you get the £35 Topcashback?

Both the blue and purple are back in stock on three contracts with next day delivery so can't have been a stock issue.

Any chance of a similar deal in the near future I wonder? Can’t bring myself to pay RRP after this slipped through the net

@MrBeginner You can ask MPD to reverse off your hard credit search if you are that bothered - but it is probably very minor on your credit score unless you are really border line on applications.

Soft searches dont mean anything - do a quote on Moneysupermarket and you end up with 10-20 soft searches

what you doing with sim plan which you don't need.

My o2 contract is until September. Do I simply request a pac code then and switch over to this sim? Do I need to activate or do something with this Three sim now?
