    I left it in Euro and allow them to do the exchange real time.

    Got charged €943 (£819) for the iPhone 7 Plus 128G
    and charged €137 (£119) for AppleCare +

    So saved a bit of cash. Just updated PM to cover the value of €1,000

    Jaysus, that's great! Very interested in using mine and getting the 7 Plus 128GB now instead of the 32GB.

    Can I ask how you added money to your revolut card did you load funds by bank transfer or bank card? Im not sure what you mean by allow them to do the exchange real time?

    Also, did you use ParcelMotel or Wizard?

    Thanks for the help!

    I can answer how i did, added from my bank account, just need debit card details, it will transfer in euro!

    You have 2 options!
    1. Let the currency in euro and it change in real time when apple take the money, but it might go up!
    2. Exchange the money now as rate is down and have sterling in your revoult account so you are not worried what exchange rate you gonna get.

    Most people using parcel motel and increasing cover when it prepare for dispatch.

    I was the same I said from the start I would just get the 32G but just before buying it on the 9th I changed my mind thinking later on down the line I would be kicking myself for not going with the 128G, so happy I did now.

    So when you get your revolut card you link it with your current account card. You then just select the topup option from the app, input the amount you want to topup by and it is done straight away. I've mine verified i think i used a drivers licence at the time. Its all done via the app even sign up. If its not verified I think but not 100% you might be limited to the amount you can topup by.

    I was able to transfer 1,200 euro into it in one go which was great.

    Revolut give you the best exchange rate at the time of purchase. In the app you can see the exchange rate changing all the time.

    Go onto www.revolut.com to get a run down on how it works.

    Happy shopping !

    Delivery date hasn't changed. Still 3-7 Oct but preparing for dispatch. On the same day Apple releases to 20 more regions? Suspicious.....


  • Registered Users Posts: 298 ✭✭martin_g


    Any one else's order update from processing to dispatch yet? They took money yesterday but hasn't updated yet, probably be Monday before anything else changes.

    Mine is preparing to dispatch it change to that about half an hour after they took the money.

    Mines moved to preparing for dispatch too at about 8pm yesterday.
    Money still hasn't gone but I think that may be just BOI 365 and doesn't show over weekend on mastercard.

    My order has just changed back to processing items :confused:


  • Registered Users Posts: 543 ✭✭✭nightster1


    got notification from dhl yesterday to expect apple store delivery, but tracking search has put it back to Monday.

    7, jet black, 128


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,326 ✭✭✭Zapp Brannigan


    Used the 7 Plus the last few days now. Battery is unreal! Down to about 50% after a solid full day of usage. Love it, it is a bit big in my pocket and the stupid headphone convertor is definitely going to break but I'm a happy chap.

    Wonder what's going on so???


  • Registered Users Posts: 55 ✭✭tonylee


    Got dispatch notification for my 7 Plus. Ordered on launch day (morning) from Apple.ie . Showing estimated delivery date as October 3 but expect that to change to early next week? (unless its coming straight from China!) Tracking using the DHL Express number throws up error message at the moment so probably not in system yet? Wonder where is it being shipped from? UK?

    I have received three phones from Apple over last 2 weeks and all were through UK Mail but my 7 Plus has tracking from UPS.

    I think they are coming straight from china, mine is UPS standard shipping which might be from UK but still shows Est 4th oct, i hope we both will receive lot earlier and once the scan is available it should give us some estimates!
