And play.com - free delivery as well

Beware of amazon and amazon marketplace. There might be fake stuff on the amazon marketplace. To be safe buy items that are shipped by amazon UK

Same goes to play.com and play trade

well, as i said, only apple store ones are unlocked. those from telco ones are locked. It depends on the seller if he is getting the prepaid version then you can request for unlock by paying a certain amount to unlock the phone. I know you can do this in O2 but i am not sure about Orange.

Currently they dont provide unlock for iphone 4 yet (both O2 and orange). So you will have to wait for the news.

apple refunded the bumper case. anyone who bought the bumper case from apple store with credit card will be automatically refunded.

As for the free case program you can download the app on your phone and order a new case for free smile.gif

@jonathan82,
No.... U need to use a UK based CC and ship it to the UK.

I believe some of the guys did use Malaysian CC to purchase and send to UK address before.

But bear in mind the cost of the phone, the cost of sending it back, and warranty issue. I think it is better to get it from Singapore or Australia.

You still have to wait for 3 weeks for the item to be ready for shipping plus another 1 or 2 weeks for the item to reach the address in UK if you purchase it online smile.gif

Just my 2cents

yes the retail price for iphone in UK is 499 for 16gb so it should be around 2.5k RM


It is impossible to get it on 1.5k in UK unless it is locked with contract with telco companies.
