I have an Origin Scan, Location Scan, Departure Scan, and Arrival Scan, all in ZhengZhou. :rolleyes:

With packages such as these, all progress is tracked and monitored. It may seem stupid to you but these warehouses are HUGE. They could be moving from one warehouse to another and then onto a cargo plane. It needs to be tracked. You see it like that, they may see way more information.

I've always wondered how that pathetic excuse for a company has been able to transgress time and space to have something leave before it ever arrived.

The same company that can move MILLIONS of packages a day and know where every single one is at any given time is pretty freaking amazing. I know why they use the slogan "Logistics". It would be a logistical nightmare for any other company trying to delivery all these phones on the same day.

It's pretty amazing honestly.
 
I just noticed that my order number (the W number apple gives you when you order) minus the last two digits is also used as a UPS reference number on my package. Why it's missing the last two digits, I have no idea.
 
My order went PFS and serial number showed up in support profile yesterday and tracking showed up today on My Choice page. Confirmation at :03
 
ugh if I just get tracking I will be at ease. Yesterday everything was fine it was PFS then apple emails me saying my verizon bill is past due. I felt so dumb so I paid it off and not it's back on processing. -_-

Unfortunately it doesn't work for either of my two phones that are already appearing in my support profile. Maybe it's because I'm in the UK.

FedEx has done it a few times and they did a wonderful job doing so whereas UPS always seems to find a way to **** it up.
 
I just got my iPad mini 4 on Friday, which also shipped via UPS. So when I search by reference using my phone number, it just pulls up that iPad order. If there were multiple orders tied to the same reference number, should I expect to see both shipments pull up? Or will I just not be able to search via reference?

Chances are good that I just don't have a tracking number at all yet because my order is still processing. But I'm curious anyway! :)
 
This is all I've received so far:

We’re contacting you to let you know your package may arrive later than expected. We apologize, and we’re working hard to ensure you receive your items as soon as possible.

6S Black 64 ordered 9/12 6am mst U.S. Processing 9/25 delivery. no pending charge. not looking good.

Where are you located? Strange as 6S 64gb seem to have plenty availability.

Yeah, I tried that...unfortunately, I'm having it sent to my office since I won't be home to sign for it. And I can't get the UPS My Choice to recognize my business address. Stupid! Obviously it's a valid address...I mean, they literally JUST delivered the iPad and it was fine. :p But thank you for the suggestion!

Colorado U.S. Yes I find it strange that they sent me a message that my order might be delayed and there is no change to the order status or credit card.
 
If I get a delayed email I will be so livid. GRRR. I was already charged though so who knows anymore. I'm still stuck in processing hell.
 
Mine was orders days after and I expect it to ship tonight :)
