Well yes and no. The rules requiring Apple to allow third party App
stores do not apply to GB and you can�t access them in GB. (I�m
being very careful to exclude NI as I�m not sure how it works out
for them). I pass no comment on the rights and wrongs of such App
stores, just pointing out that the EU and GB markets are not entirely
coincident.
 
Take the rule for battery life. If your phone battery breaches the 800
cycle 80% rule in the EU you might have rights to get the battery
replaced free of charge, and you might not have those rights in GB.
