IPhone :: UK Apple Stores / Accept Cash?
Jun 23, 2010
I have a reservation for a 32gb 4, and have tried calling my store but it's either engaged or no one answers.Does anyone know whether Apple accepts cash for the iPhone 4 as I read somewhere about a woman wanting to pay for an iPad with cash but was refuesed.
I want to put £200 on my CC and £400 in cash.

Diane Campbell saved up, bit by bit, the $600 required to buy an Apple iPad, but when she showed up at the store with a wad of cash to buy the tablet, she found she was out of luck.Campbell recalls her visit to the Palo Alto Apple Store: "I had my cash in the backpack and I went up proudly to the counter and told them, 'I would like to purchase an iPad.'"Apple's sales policy states that the iPad must be purchased by credit or debit card, according to ABC News. No plastic means no tablet, and the Apple employee turned Campbell away."They said, 'Sorry, we don't take cash.' And, so I looked at her and I said OK she's kidding," Campbell tells ABC News.
Although Apple did not respond to ABC News' request for an explanation, Campbell was told by an Apple Store employee that the plastic-only policy is intended to cut down on piracy--customers who buy vast numbers of iPads, in order to sell them overseas.What's next Apple ? Criminal Background check ? Credit check ? Minimum bank balance required ? Employment verification ? Immigration Status check ?

The story so far: I bought an accessory in Nov 2011 at an Apple Retail Store. (Philips dual-dock speaker) It started malfunctioning in Mar 2012. (Dock not charging anymore) I brought it to an Apple Store (closer to my place), they were happy to replace it on the spot, except that there was none in stock. So I was advised to go to an other Store (the original one), where they had stock. So far, so good for service. I went to the other store, but there I was told that they could not replace it because I had bought it more than 14 days before, so I had to contact the manufacturer directly! So my questions are:
- What is, if any, the actual policy on non-Apple product repair & replacement?
- Why don't all store follow the same policy?
- Should I just try my luck again with another person, until I strike gold and get it replaced?

Philips DCS390

If i went to an apple store, would they have an iphone 4 out to play with? i know they should, but the demand and such is so high for them, and to have multiple display models for every store would be a lot of off limit iphone 4's, so are they putting them on display, or do they wait until stock is steady to do so?

I'm just curious. Next week on the 24th, will AT&T or apple stores have IPhone 4G for people without preorders to snag if only a few devices? Sorry if the topic was already posted. I didn't see it upon my attempt to research it.

So, not being one of the people that actually got through on ATT&Ts or Apple's site on the big pre-order day, or not being one to camp out in front of my local Apple store overnight, I'm wondering just how often it will receive stock. I'm guessing that they will probably sell out the morning of the 24th. Do the Apple stores get to replenish their stock daily ...a couple times a week ... once a week?

I'm going to running some errands later today, and was thinking about stopping by local apple store. It's like 10 minutes away and I need to get a replacement iPhone 4 because mine has a yellow band that is ugly and won't go away.So how has stock been by you? Have you been able to get your phone replaced?
I know I can call, but they don't open for 2 hours and often don't have time to answer all the calls on busy weekends...

I went in to the Fair Oaks Apple Store in Fairfax, VA to get on the waiting list since I had heard that was faster than online and they had a bunch in stock. Bought my wife a 32GB iPhone 4. Took all of 10 minutes.

More than one month later, are people still lining up at Apple stores in the US?
Can you now just walk in any time of day to pick one up?

So I am one of the unlucky few (or many) who did not reserve an iPhone for launch day. So I called my local Apple Store to ask about walk-ins. They said they'd have "some," and will have two lines, one for pre-orders and one for walk-ins. I wanted to get some more info on this since I will be sacrificing my whole day to stand in this line.
I asked them how long do you think they will take per customer, i.e if I get there at 7:30 am, am in the back of the line, how long will it take to get to the front? I know that is a hard question to answer, but he stated that they're now using iPod touches and some new software to make things smoother. He still wouldn't give me much of an answer though. I work nights, so if I have to wait more than 4 hours or so it might now be worth it if I have to work that night. Anyone have any ideas? Can you think back to the 3GS or 3G launch to remember how long the line was at Apple? I was at an AT&T store for the 3G launch and the lines were atrocious. At least 5 hours with 50 people or so ahead of me.

I am actually waiting on hold right now to talk with Apple at Lenox Square. I thought I would just ask to see if anybody knows if there are still walk-in available. Im kinda sure lenox does not but I want to know about tomorrow and Monday shipments.
Just wondering if anybody has had any luck later in the day. I have no problem waiting but would not mind getting one this weekend while i have time off work.

Is it worth it to order one online? I just put my name on the priority list today, by calling in. Generally, do apple stores have plenty in stock.

Has anyone been able to find any bumpers that are not black in any of the Apple stores in the NYC area? My phone is arriving sooner than expected (tomorrow) and I have no case for it. I'm hoping to pick up the Zagg Invisible shield and a bumper.Kind of want green or orange.

Like the thread title suggests, I'm wondering if you go into an Apple store next week to preorder, if they'll have demonstrator units available so customers can check them out before plunking down their orders. Specifically for myself, and I know many other MR-ites are interested to know how they look in person, in part to determine what color to select.
Anybody know what they've done in the past, like for the 3G launch, for example?

I'm thinking of selling my 3GS in order to upgrade to iPhone 4. The only hitch is, I don't want to get stuck without a phone in-between. know if there is a decent supply of devices for walk-in customers at Apple retail stores? I tried calling my local one tonight, but got left on hold. They were probably swamped due to iphone mania.

Everyone kept saying you need to use a credit card, but I used my debit, and it was charged. I ordered through AT&T as well, and they sent me an e-mail saying I couldn't use that card. I'm gonna let them cancel that order, since I don't need 2 phones, but does Apple accept debit and credit? I'm worried my order will get rejected soon, since people keep saying credit only.

Impatient, yes. Does anyone know if Apple or ATT accept delivery hold requests? Where the delivering carrier will hold the item at the station instead of making a first attempt at delivery, leaving it available for pickup at any time.

My phone went under recovery mode after a quick dip in some water today, after plugging it in and doing a factory reset, it went to the 'Hello, hola, bonjour' screen. When asked to enter my Apple ID & password to activate my phone, it said the email was incorrect. I've called Apple & they said it was the corresponding email. I've used the same Apple ID to sign into everything; iTunes, iCloud online, Facetime on my MacBook Air. I even used it to sign in to ask this question .. It's just my phone that won't accept my Apple ID.
Also, when plugged into my laptop, error 2005 & 9 came up.
Info:
iPhone 5, iOS 7.1.1, My warranty expired 60 days ago.

I've been calling all the Apple stores near me to see if the iPhone 4 is available. And its annoying having to wait 15 minutes on the phone to hear if they have it or not. Is there a way I can check from my laptop?
