My order dispatched yesterday and a revised delivery date of the 7th.

Seems strange that other people have the same dispatch date but a day earlier.

Have attached a screen grab from the UPS tracking site so if anybody want to compare the times quoted by UPS compared to their own to check the delivery date...

It maybe that it shipped too late in the day for the 6th delivery, but am still hoping that it will come sooner rather than later

Forgot to add, its being delivered to Helensburgh, Scotland

I think it might be to do with the destination postcode, if you are not in the central belt or in a city then it adds an extra day. My order was shipped at near exactly the same time as yours (To Linlithgow near Edinburgh) and it's due on the 6th, when i put the details in this page - https://wwwapps.ups.com/ctc/request?loc=en_US&WT.svl=SubNav - I tells me guaranteed delivery by the end of the 6th.

Looking at the European transit times also supports this (From Tamworth where the main UPS hub is)

Wow.... nice part of the world, but probably extra day due to location. It's still in China.... so even the 7th will prove a challenge.
 
Is there any German guy who knows if the new Macbook is on display in Oberhausen or Dusseldorf?

I think Apple reversed the pending charge and refunded me. I don't see the transaction anywhere on my account and the money is back. I can still see the order saying it got dispatched on UPS but on Apple's order page it still says preparing for dispatch.

Any idea if this is normal and if they'll be charging me again soon?

It's normal, the charge is re-applied for real to your account on the day it is handed over the final carrier. Typically - 24 hours before deliver. If the payment fails, the delivery is placed on hold. That's how it works in the UK anyway.

Thanks for the in-depth info, greatly appreciated. Put my details in the wwwapps.ups etc and I get the same delivery. So I can only hope for the 6th.

(normal iPhone preorders get delivered on release date with UPS, fingers & toes crossed)

Just got charged and got the dispatch email. Thanks
 
Which reference do you plug into the UPS tracker? I've tried everything that looks like a reference with no success.
 
I just checked my UPS tracking and it now states 'Export Scan'.

So hopefully it is on the way out of China. :cool:

UK order, Grey 1.1, ordered on 10/04 - 8.15am
 
Why can I get an exact 1 hour delivery slot (which they hit successfully) from UK Mail for my Apple Watch delivery, yet UPS says "Sorry, but we will deliver at any time between 8am and 7pm (and sometimes later(!)"

What a load of rubbish.

At least you've got tracking info. Mine shipped last night but no tracking information is available.
 
Apple still claims its on track for delivery on 5th May. Whereas UPS say 6th May end of day. Does anyone know which is correct or more likely?

Apple:

Status In Transit to Customer- Shipment on Schedule 1 May
Est. Delivery 05 May 2015

UPS:

Rescheduled Delivery Date:
06/05/2015 by End of Day
Service Level:
UPS Worldwide Expedited

I think you are the only person expecting it on 05/05. Everyone else has a date of 06/05 or later. I would trust UPS.

I had the same dates also, but just in the last hour the apple tracking page has changed for me from the 5th to the 6th to match the UPS date.
 
Germany:
my cc is charged too

Any change on the order?
Mine card was charged the second time yesterday (yes I have two pending charges for the macbook!! maybe because it was a national holiday, the one from previous week couldn't dissapear) and still processing even after 14 hours..
Finally I started not to care and they charge the card again,(

For me it's neither charged nor has the status changed so far.

I have the space gray base model with a delivery time between the 7th and the 15th. I ordered basically one minute after the store went back
online on the 10th.
