Well, as most of you would have guessed I really
want an iPhone being the Apple Fanboy that I am. On
Friday I went to Carphone Warehouse only to get
approved for a phone with a £150.00 deposit for me
to find out they don’t have any. It sucks but
I moved on. Later that day I went to the Apple
Store at Bluewater Mall only to find out hey, we
have them in stock but we can’t activate
them. Come back tomorrow (Saturday) and we’ll
have plenty.
Well, I show up 45 minutes after they open to get in line for an hour only to find out that they sold out of the 16gb Black which is the one I wanted only minutes before. Plenty in stock indeed. Ok. I’m not happy but I’m human and it’s just a phone. I call the Regent Street flag ship Apple Store to find out that hey, they do have them but they have closed the que for the day on Saturday. Fair enough. I go to the Apple store 45 minutes before they open (number 52 in line) and wait 3 hours (when I was told ‘no more than an hour wait.&rsquo
only to find out that O2 now
declines me service when just two days ago
they said it would be no problem. So there it
was on the desk in front of me... The 16gb
iPhone I couldn’t have.
I”m about to say screw Apple and O2 and just get a Nokia E71 on Vodafone as I know it can easily be done. Apple, why did it have to be this hard to get a phone? I mean really. Why? Apple, if you want to contact me, please do. I would love to hear what you have to say for yourself and O2.
