Thanks MM top man.
prob go with the plus

no contract prices from emobile yet and im due an upgrade. but ive the 35pm unlimited all at the moment so wont be giving that up, even if it means going sim free. the contract prices from other carriers is high and the data caps low with some.
sim free may be the way to go....decisions decisions

It was easy for me. I'm on a €15 30 day sim plan.

My dad is on the eMobile unlimited plan too for €34. He rang today as he has been out of contract a month of two on his 5 but I told him to hang on and see what the 6 prices are like. The guys today told him they didn't have any details but he rang customer care and they were trying to give him a number of the sales team but he wasn't interested as he was driving at the time. They told him to call into a store and they might have more details.

It's with Vodafone unlimited Vodafone to Vodafone calls and texts and 1GB data (should be 500mb but gives 1 gig for some reason). 99.9% of the people I call or text are on Vodafone or I use jelly sms or iMessage/FaceTime.

i got a text from emobile today to say im due an upgrade, which i knew anyway. replied back to 510?? and then got another text saying someone from the upgrade team would ring me before close of business today to discuss.
they must be working very late ,as nobody rang yet !

I sold both our phones on adverts last week.

Her black unlocked iPhone 5 16gb for €340
My white unlocked iPhone 5 32gb for €375

Both sold relatively handy enough, within a day or two of been posted but I had boxes, receipts from the Apple Store and both were in excellent condition and I included the cases with them.

thanks , thats a great indicator as ive the box and all the receipts etc and phone went into a otterbox case straight from the apple packaging and has not been out of it since, so phone is spotless. must stick it up over the weekend.
if i get 350 then i will go sim free and hold my plan as is.
fair play for the heads up

Tbh, I'd budget for €300 for the 16gb, that's what I did. I think I got lucky with a €340 offer if I'm completely honest. That way, anything extra is a bonus.

Best of luck selling, I've my sin free 5 White 64GB up for sale at the moment. No offers yet but no panic.

Got my 64Gb 6 yesterday, 35mins in the reserved Q, God the 6+ is huge, the 6 seems to be so much bigger than my 5s

mech33

Just got my 6 reserved this morning for collection today:) Was gonna wait for a 6 plus but they seem huge. Anyone here using a 6 plus yet? Whats your thoughts.

Can you reserve online still? Actually you can! Just done it, cheers.

See this boardsie who had a change of heart after buying the 6 plus. here I'm happy that I got the 6, these same issues would have me doing the same.

If there's anyone here getting 64gb space grey iPhone 6 but would rather a 6 plus I'd be willing to do a swap with them, I'm finding the 6 plus a little bit too big, just drop me a pm, I'm based in dublin 13

😄 I know the feeling! Afraid it's gonna fall! Is yours space grey? I have a 64 6 plus in white silver and would rather space grey, I also have an unopened 128 6 non plus in silver white I would swap it for your grey plus with the difference if you where interested?

I don't know about you guys but I only ever see the box twice. When I buy the phone and when I sell it.

Here here.

I knew I made the right move to get the 6. Knew from the start that the 6 plus was just too much. For me anyway. Super happy with my 6. Also just looked on Apple Store belfast and there are loads of iphone 6 models left to reserve.

mackerski

The queue is at the moment just about back to the bridge.

drumzone

There is a queue today too? Holy crap.

dave oc

There was no queue at 12 so it must have just started to get busy again.

A pretty short one. Maybe 20-30 people.
