Not tempted to GI the aliexpress route?
Oddly enough just been offered to swap for a G3 or S5 what you think.. I think id prefer this phone over all ATM just that band and resale making me think to swap. I saw a genuine OPO on eBay sell for 275 earlier that's at a loss now.

Worried about warranty issues and being a student would rather save the £40
thats fair enough.
i think if i can get hold of a invite i will get one out of curiosity. i want the phone, the yellow issue has been bothering me but not everyone gets it so guess i wanna know if i would get it.
the official forums is cringeworthy. people begging all over the place and people who have invites feel like they are kings because people are begging them.
the invites seem to be up to about the 50k mark now and from what ive read they are doing somewhere between 2500 - 5000 a day (not sure how accurate this is)

Card through the door from RM, not expecting anything else so hopefully it's my Oneplus. RM asked me to give them 24hr before collecting from the depot but I'll chance my luck just before 5.30pm.

Yeah, I used to be able at my old address. In this area though I don't think they start the deliveries till 12pm and then the drivers back at about 5pm. Pretty crap .
If it is my Oneplus then that's not a bad delivery time, ordered 26th with standard delivery.

Right well, it was my oneplus 
. Very impressed so far, it's big but the curved textured back helps a lot. Still find myself resorting to two hands though but no big issue.
First thing I did was to max the screen brightness and check for the yellow issue. I composed a text which has complete white background and I'm struggling to see any yellow tint or banding at the bottom or any part of the screen. Maybe this had been fixed on new batches.
So far a happy chap. ^^/

Yeah, same here still down as processing. Parcelforce require payment before you get the parcel, so if there isn't a charge there you won't get one.

No I think you'll find once the phones are in the U.K they're dispatched from within the U.K ( Southall ). So you won't get import duty.

Interesting...when was your OPO manufactured?
Also the true test of checking if the yellow band is there is to go to the OPO website
