I am looking for the plus in space grey
the Problem with online is you cant specify color.

I am in Sandton, not sure if the one in the mall has any stock.
Will have to go find out.

Are you talking about getting one online through FNB? When I did it the other day, I had to select what colour model I wanted.

When did you order it? Have you gotten any feedback?

I did it online on Monday and yesterday afternoon got an SMS saying "Thank you for your smart device application which is currently being processed and we will advise you of the outcome shortly" - how long does that normally take? Is there a quicker way to see if it got approved?

Just got my sms, now it all depends if they have stock.
As far as I know it comes from Digital planet here in Sandton so if they have stock it will take a day or two, unless there is no stock then you have to wait. :(

What SMS did you get? That it has been approved or the same as mine where they said it is busy being processed and will advise on the outcome shortly?

The outcome side.

But it is all depending on stock now.

Still waiting for the approval

Not even our Istore has stock so I would imagine we might be waiting for a while.
But give them a shout this afternoon if you have not heard anything.

I know for a fact that the Menlyn iStore has one space grey 64gb iPhone 6+.

I dropped off my "defective" unit yesterday and picked up the replacement

A small length of the screen wasn't flush/glued properly.

Oh yeah, I recall now. I looked back a couple of pages to see as I couldn't remember.

Glad they changed that then. That could have potentially been a tricky situation.

It's something that those in the first world are used to. Any problems with any Apple device, they walk into the Apple Store for immediate service and swap out. It's a huge factor which unfortunately, in the blind subjective disdain, leads to the anti crowd thinking... "Ag, Apple, stupid Americans, what do they know, with their underpowered stale devices from 2012 with static home screens?"

Unfortunately we don't have that luxury, but good on iStore for doing what's right/expected. I'm actually impressed with their service, I emailed them about iPhone 5s 64GB stock, and a pleasant well-spoken gentleman got in touch with me over the phone.

I've been out the country for a few weeks now, but before I left TM were doing a 64gb 5S for R399 a month on Smart 100. That's R9,600 which I suspect is cheaper than iStore up front and cheaper than FNB et al on terms, and with a bonus of 1gb a month etc chucked in too.

I really should've jumped, only 16GBs everywhere now.
