That's odd. I am a MyChoice member, but I don't pay a dime...I have the free account and it let's me change delivery every year to the CC.

They wanted to change the date of delivery to Saturday not to change where it be delivered..

Where are you guys getting a tracking number? I have a 9/21 delivery date and all I see is “Preparing to Ship”.

Hi everyone!

I have a 28th delivery date and im already preparing to ship! Anyone else?

Same for me. First checked when I got to work and was seeing the same 'Processing.' Then checked 2 hours later and now it's finally saying 'Preparing to Ship.' I have a feeling it's going to say 'Preparing to Ship' for at least a few days before it's finally shipped.

I am signed up with UPS my choice, it showed up in the UPS app automatically.

Me too. You think we have a chance of getting them Friday? Maybe Saturday? Or Monday? Lol I’m so eager to get my hands on this phone!!!

 

[YoungLay]

Is there a forum for the Apple pickup?

 

[d_ganggreen]

Some times they drop ship in on day or they just have t cleared customs yet.

Mine is the same. 9PM departure with no further udates. I am hoping it is on one of the flights and will be updated when it lands/scans.

 

[Bako-MacAddict]

Anyone else have the same?

Yeah. Same, however, I’m not sure if this my watch or my apple watch lol. I have a package that weights .50kgs and .70kgs.

 

[Nanotyrns]

Anyone else seeing movement on their tracking information but still haven't received an email from Apple confirming shipment? When I check the apple store app it still shows at preparing to ship, but when I track by reference with my phone number it is showing my phone departed Anchorage, AK.

A lot of people here say you won't see anything from Apple until it leaves Louisville today or Thursday. Probably smart on their part because if they had notified of shipping as soon as the label was made this last Saturday customers would be calling constantly wanting to know why their "overnight" shipment has not arrived yet.

Man UPS is really messing with me. Yesterday it said date tentative then this morning it had changed back to in transit and so I was feeling good.

Just checked again and it's back to date tentative.

Ordered last Friday as soon as the pre-order window opened.

It still says preparing for shipment with a 9/21 date, never got a tracking number.. anyone else in the same boat?

Go to ups.com and tracking page. Select track by reference and then type in your phone number associated with the order. Should be able to track that way

I'm in the exact same boat.

 

[philly27]

just got this text .. but no change to any of the tracking on UPS... 210 ZZ

It keeps telling me the date time frame I pick is invalid. what did you put for those dates. ?

 

[zztops]

For those who changed to pick up at a UPS CC, I highly doubt you will get an update until it arrives at your pick up location. In my experience, it will show an exception, ALL DAM WEEK, and then - Poof... ready for pick up.

 

[Oridus]

I think it goes from Anchorage to Louisvile, not Nashville. That's where they all go first.

Mine goes there then flies back to CA

Fixed. You're right. I had Nashville on the mind for some reason.

Looks like from flight aware, the Kalitta Air flight continued on from PANC and headed straight to SDF. It took off at 11:15 pm (correlating with my departure scan) and landed at 9:25 am. Should be scanning as arrived in Louisville any moment now!

Mine was on this flight as well put still hasn't been updated in UPS.com. I am wondering if going through Customs here causes a delay on the arrival scan.

 

[AZhappyjack]

Yeah. Same, however, I’m not sure if this my watch or my apple watch lol. I have a package that weights .50kgs and .70kgs.

Package weights are:

.4kg iPhone Xs
.5kg iPhone Xs Max
.6kg AppleWatch (aluminum)
.7kg AppleWatch (SS)

They may be unloading and doing arrival scans as they break the pallets to put them onto regional planes.

How do you check by reference with your phone number? I still have no tracking information with a 9/21 delivery date.

 

[mcmanus7]

Anyone else still stuck in Hong Kong? I am assuming UPS flight 59 has some phones on it.

 

[apiro]

Same with me.

 

[Packer2058]

Anyone else have the same?

Yup! Have the same thing, dont worry too much. Should be here by friday, I've seen this happen last year too!

 

[Juanefny]

Last year we had a UPS employee who contributed to the thread.. it’s too bad she/he is not on here this year!
