    Quick restore and put it into a new otterbox defender and way she goes. :)

    How are your home buttons holding up? After 5 days of usage mine has become inconsistently "clicky". Sometimes even clicky if you lightly touch it as if it's out of place. Rather frustrating. Seeing a lot of people saying the same on MR & Apple support communities.

    There's lads on adverts selling them at the same price as Apple, factory unlocked and sealed, which saves waiting time for anyone who wants one badly.

    If they are the same price why risk buying on adverts when apple are a sure thing?

    Because it takes two weeks to come via apple?

    If there is a receipt and the box still in plastic - there is not really much risk.

    Most of the sellers simply buy them from the north or use parcel motel so they will make around €50.

    Has anyone gotten a 5s from an O2 store in Dublin?
    So frustrating going in and most are not even the least bit helpful. Vodafone have made a list of interest and make their way through it while O2 just do nothing.

    Hi

    I will be visiting Dublin upcoming weekend, and I'd like to buy a 5s unlocked (not available yet in my home country). Are there any shops selling them unlocked, without contract?

    Tried last week to find one only to be told it'll take another week or two for them to sell it off contract.

    Has the supply of new phones been this bad from apple before or is this something to do with them supplying the Chinese market?


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,238 ✭✭✭Prodgey


    Lads I'm stuck with a Meteor one, brand new in the box, with a receipt, I'll let it go for €580 if anyone's interested.

    We have movement. Visa called me to ask was I expecting anything from apple. I called the apple shower and they said the system had tried to take payment today but visa kicked it for security reasons, so the system will try again tomorrow am and dispatch then.

    Expect some mail very soon with shipments of 5S


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,621 ✭✭✭flexcon


    dispatch time for iPhone 5s has been halved now from store.apple.com/ie

    So expect your phones soon.

    My order is still 2-3 weeks after ordering a week ago, so no good on that yet

    Hi, when did you order mine? I ordered mine straight away that night it was released at midnight.. but it still says: "Processing Items Dispatched: 2 - 3 weeks
    Delivers: 12 Nov, 2013 - 18 Nov, 2013 by Express Shipping"

    I'm now afraid something when wrong. I also didn't log into my account because I forgot about the ID the night of ordering.

    Ordered midnight when they went on sale and you can fu7k right off if you think I'm paying for yours too :D:D

    If my card wasn't so secure it would be shipping not processing

    Was worth a try!!! I'm panicking now that something went wrong with the order. I might have to ring tomorrow just to make sure. I do know that I chose not to sign in so I can't track the order unfortunately, and it wasn't paid for on my own card. Fingers crossed it changes in the next day or so. It's already been a few days too much.

    How much were they discounted? Paid €699 for mine over a week ago.

    You should have got a mail when you ordered it regardless of using your account

    I orderd a 16Gb space grey on the 1st, still no change on mine, I was hoping it might change because the apple site now lists a delivery time of 1-2 weeks
