Apple.com Preorder Status Thread (merged)

[Want300]

My Last update is it left Anchorage, AK at 12:58AM on the 18th. Does still say delivery by 10:30 AM.

Wish I could see some movement on the Alaska one since it had a departure scan so long ago.

This is the same for me. I got my email from Apple, Delivery changed to include "by 10:30 AM" as well. This annoys me, it needs to UPDATE already!

 

[Jleroy]

Anyone starting to get spam emails that there is an issue with a UPS order and click here to resolve?

----------

Just received a shipping notice for the second phone.

There's always the good old Nigerian scammer. I enjoy chumming them along.

Twas the night before iPhone
and all through the house
not a peripheral was stirring
not even a Mighty Mouse

Tracking data was displayed
on four devices with care
with hopes that Big Brown
soon would be there.

Then, out in the street
there arose such a clatter
I jumped from my chair
to see what was the matter.

Out on the lawn
much to my joy and surprise
a rectangular box appeared
in front of my eyes.

"But, tomorrow's the day!"
I exclaimed with some worry,
"That's ok", he responded
"I'm in too much of a hurry."

Then, like a flash he was gone
more deliveries to make
and with that box in my hand
I actually started to shake.

But before I could open
my treasure that day
The man in brown had
one more thing to say.

"I'll see you next Fall
for the new iphone delight.
Happy Activation to all
and to all a good night!"

Awesome. Well done.

Leave a note on the door that says, I'm home PLEASE knock very loud!!

Get a dog. I have 2. No delivery guy is sneaking past my house.

 

[Rnoeblbsyon16]

I wonder if anyone will get their phone today. When the 4 came out I got mine 1 day before release. Gosh that would be sweet!

 

[goldenagecomics]

Status on my Apple page changed to "Shipped" and UPS tracking is all good, but for some strange reason I never got the email from Apple. Heading to the spam folder to check...

Anyone have a similar experience?

 

[nblracer880]

I think UPS is lying to us... I am pretty sure that most of our phones are now sitting in local hubs...

Especially since the guy a couple pages ago said that he saw his arrived in his local city and that it was out for delivery... then it magically went back to louisville.


If you check on itrackpack.com you most likely have a "location scan" around the time your package arrived at the hub... they just scanned it and made it look like it was in louisville.

 

[nostresshere]

There are sticky threads for deliveries and their location...
Why does everybody need to open a thread for nothing?

some people do not care about anyone else. Just themselves.

Only thing worse that this are those that have made multiple phone calls DEMANDING to know where their phone is.

 

[KPOM]

Yes, it is the case... the return date is calculated from the shipment date, not the contract signing date -- otherwise, how do you think the people who ordered the phones on the 14th but won't get them until the beginning of October would feel? So, that's why Apple purposefully waited to mark the phones as shipped... The contract signing date will always be the 14th

Yes, but for me the important thing is how long I have to return the phone and go back off contract. Do I have until 10/14 or 10/21?

 

[Demirkapi]

Now mine has just changed form holiday shipping to next day shipping

Same here.

Can you see your phone on Apple support page?
https://supportprofile.apple.com/MySupportProfile.do

I still do not have it and no UPS record yet too.

 

[UTVOL06]

I just talked to ups about phones stuck in transit from Alaska he said they are in Kentucky just the system hasn't updated. They will arrive on time. I know some people conjectured this but I didn't see any posts from ups themselves

Thanks...makes me feel better!

 

[jwire4]

Still like many stuck with this. Anyone who had this before get an update? I already see some people getting updates out of Louisville.

Checked and actually has the same info as UPS.com

Looks like I'm not going to any of my classes tomorrow, having one cancelled pretty much sealed that.

If I can't even get through a workout now without checking this thread, I know tomorrow would be wasted if I went to classes because I wouldn't pay attention anyways.

 

[greytmom]

Finally got the "shipped" notice from Apple this morning, although I've been tracking since Chek Lap Kok (never fails to make me laugh).

Was still showing in Anchorage until just now. It's now showing in Louisville.

 

[Diode]

Still like many stuck with this. Anyone who had this before get an update? I already see some people getting updates out of Louisville.

It probably won't leave Louisville until tonight's departures.

 

[SavinienCyrano]

Wouldn't it only be fair to merge https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/1443995/ into this thread? That would be a nice leap in comparison to the UK one.

 

[gabriel925fm]

From another carrier right?

Yeah and no... Im going from straight talk to at&t in witch is the same since they are an att mvno.

 

[Geckotek]

Cause we are all super excited and don't care how many threads there are!

Well start caring. Extra threads junk up the forum and make it hard to find other useful threads.

Yes, but for me the important thing is how long I have to return the phone and go back off contract. Do I have until 10/14 or 10/21?

You have from the shipping date, so 9/20.

 

[DrFreeze21]

Both of my phones now are checked in at Louisville! That was the longest flight from Alaska. Interesting though that one says deliver tomorrow by 10:30 am but the other does not. While they were in transit from Alaska, neither had the 'deliver by 10:30am'. Wouldn't it be a cruel twist of fate if my wife's phone was delivered before mine even though I ordered mine 10 mins before hers on 9/14?

 

[wiivile]

Yes, but for me the important thing is how long I have to return the phone and go back off contract. Do I have until 10/14 or 10/21?

30 days from whenever your phone was marked as shipped... so neither of those dates

No, there is no twist...it is fate. I'm expecting my wife's to be delivered before mine.

Is that discussion completely about orders from apple.com, or are there carrier orders also included?

 

[Sgt93]

Just received my official shipment notice from Apple. UPS shows it left Korea and hasn't arrived in US yet. Delivery by 1030 on the 21st.

 

[Hollow Man]

No, there is no twist...it is fate. I'm expecting my wife's to be delivered before mine.

Yep. Even though I ordered mine first, it appears my wife's is the one that's (theoretically) in KY and mine (theoretically) is still in shipment from Alaska. Both say delivery tomorrow by 10:30 am though.

I'm sure they'll both be here. But it's stupid "fun" to F5/refresh the UPS tracking screen every 2 seconds.
