Have just been told by customer escalations representative at CORE that MTN have not sent them any iPhone 7+ stock and they can't give me an ETA as to when it will arrive.

Has anyone upgraded or bought iPhone 7+ stock from an istore?
 
Ok, any updates please sound off on this topic. Will do the same. Looking for 128GB iPhone 7+ Matt black.

If anyone was wondering, I have been told that trade in vouchers will still be valid after the expiry date. As long as you are on the system!
 
LOL. Cannot make this **** up. Customer walks into a MTN/Vodacom/Cell C/iStore. Has R15k cash to purchase new iPhone 7 Plus 32GB in Rose Gold.

1. They don't have stock.
2. They cannot order stock (They refuse to order stock?)
3. They don't know when new stock will arrive.
4. They wont even bother to call you to let you know if stock ever arrives.
5. They basically tell you to visit the store every day to check.

Consumers really are a bunch of materialistic suckers. We deserve the crap these places feed us. And we deserve to feel like we should be grateful for the crap.
 
Failure to launch comes to mind! Been with iPhone since the 3S and all that time can never remember it being such a bloody schlep.

Was actually quite comical listening to Menlyn Store manger reassuring me over the phone that I am a "valuable" customer. I swear I could hear her back teeth grinding!

I don't mind waiting it is the lack of information and disorganization that pisses me off!
 
Got a call from Menlyn iStore today. Seems like they have managed to secure some limited MTN stock. Although I was looking for a 128GB 7+, they did manage to get me a 256GB 7+ (matt black) which I have taken and will pick up tomorrow.

Picked up my 256GB 7+ today. Traded in old 6 plus 64GB (level 2 slight scratches, small dent) with unused charger, used charger cable, unused ear buds and box. Got R5400 for it, not bad in my opinion?
 
No stock at iStore V&A yesterday, for SO. Walked into MTN shop, walked out with 7 128GB silver. Had Rose-Gold and Gold as well, no blacks.
 
Glad you got sorted. I think MTN is playing funny buggers with iStores personally. Maybe they have some cool down period in order for their sales force to generate some business.

A bit counter intuitive in my view. All they doing is ****ing off their customers! I get better value and service buying from an iStore then say buying from MTN store or the call centre.
