Terrible news on UPS Tracker:

View attachment 499039

So, My shipment which had already reached Incheon, Korea yesterday has miraculously reappeared at Zhengzhou today. To make matters worse, delivery date is now shifted to 10/06 from original 10/01. :mad:

Mine is showing the same thing as you. Whats even more interesting is I received a text alert from ups saying delivery from apple foxconn to be delivered tomorrow by end of day.

To add to the mess:


Location Date Local Time Activity
ZhengZhou, China 09/30/2014 5:15 P.M. Departure Scan
ZhengZhou, China 09/29/2014 6:00 P.M. Departure Scan
ZhengZhou, China 09/25/2014 10:00 P.M. Arrival Scan
09/25/2014 9:00 P.M. Departure Scan
09/25/2014 7:47 P.M. Location Scan
09/25/2014 2:46 P.M. Origin Scan
China 09/25/2014 12:57 P.M. Order Processed: Ready for UPS


So my phone (6/128) has now "departed" ZhengZhou for the third time since 9-25. Estimated delivery still says 10-3. We'll see...
 
Finally- My 6 plus will be delivered today, Tuesday 9/30.

Latest UPS Info- Louisville, KY, United States 09/30/2014. 4:23 A.M. Departure Scan
Then 2 hours later there was an arrival scan in my state. I'm hoping to see out for delivery within an hour or two.

So just another update, my order shipped 9/26 and sat in ZhengZhou, China for a few days. But when it finally departed ZhengZhou 9/29, everything was smooth sailing and fairly rapid, traveling through the states within a day and still showing delivery date of the day after, 9/30.

I was severely doubting if my 9/30 delivery would really happen, but I guess UPS pulled it off. Now here's to hoping they speed up everyone else's Plus' as well!

WOW! Last Wednesday!!!! I ordered mine direct from Apple (for VZ upgrade) and it's now STUCK in Louisville for the last two days but has a Thursday (10/2) delivery along with just about everyone else waiting for their 6/6+, even though many of these left China today. No movement for mine in Louisville since yesterday morning!!!

Glad you are among the few who have successfully made the transition!! Gives the rest of us hope!

Yeah of course I ordered from Apple.com. Transition was short and sweet, although the forums posts alot of bitter sweetness #
 
Finally got a departure scan from ZhengZhou, but delivery date has slipped to 10/3.

Shipment Progress
What's This?

Bad logistics

Don't understand why my phone sat for days yet shipments prepared on 9/27 are already in KY.

That's awesome! What was your UPS scheduled delivery date?

My phone departed Anchorage a few hours ago (11:17PM local time). So it should be arriving Louisville early morning. If UPS can move it without any more "surprises", I don't see any issues for a delivery tomorrow.

But all this process is a complete joke. Ridiculous

Is anyone seeing their iPhones being shipped/delivered before the scheduled UPS delivery date?

This is fantastic! Since, I am also on the same boat as you, hope it holds true in my case too. :D

BTW, where are you located?

I also got that same email. I am not sure what Gremlins got into the UPS system but it's pretty wack if we do get our phones today

why is mine still sitting in Shanghai with the same update on 9/27 at 9:25 pm but people with the same update have had theirs shipped to Anchorage already? :mad:

I think my phone must be with yours. This is same info I have had on tracking for days. BUT...I received an email from UPS just after midnight (09/30) saying the phone would be delivered tomorrow (10/01). On UPS tracking info it says the delivery date was updated to 10/02 and has said that for a couple days.

I'm beginning to worry that there's a problem with the group of phones sitting in limbo. :(
 
My delivery has changed from Wed 10/1 to Th 10/2 to F 10/3 and latest, to M 10/6. It has also departed China multiple times.
 
Phone has finally been let free from ZhengZhou!! I hope it makes the next flight out of Korea!

Cant disagree with you here. I ordered a 6+ 128GB Gold, AT&T on 9/21. Was quoted 3-4 week shipping time with delivery range of 10/21-10/28. My order has been in "Processing Items" since order (to be expected). Was laying in bed last night just messing around on the Apple Store App and discovered that 2 regional Apple Retail stores had the phone in stock. So the following process occurred REAL fast...

1) Cancelled Apple.com order
2) 3 minutes later Apple Store iPhone app stopped giving error about an error already being placed for upgrade
3) Ordered phone for pickup today

Just waiting for the ready for pickup email now, which if I remember correctly will occur as soon as some employees get in the store this morning.

Had originally ordered the Apple.com order through AT&T NEXT but could not do that for in store pickup. Paid full price for the phone, plan on "returning" the phone when I get to the store and rebuying through AT&T NEXT. We will see how that goes...

So the process is just broken. Why would Apple A) Be sending ANY phones to stores until all their obligations to customers that have already ordered have been filled B) Why in the heck can't you order AT&T NEXT phones for in store pickup? You can do it in store once you get there...

Overall not my favorite process. Doubt I will ever "pre-order" another iPhone, probably just wait for a week or so after release and get it at a store before I can ever dream of seeing it in my mailbox or on my doorstep...

Yeah. I won't preorder again. I'm getting the phone 2 weeks after launch anyways. Next time I'm going to wait a couple weeks and just walk into a store.
 
iPhone 6 Plus Delivery Date Keeps Getting Pushed

I got a tracking number. But, my scheduled arrival date was pushed from 10/2 to 10/3, and now 10/6. My UPS tracking information shows that it Departed from ZhengZhou, China, Tuesday, 09/30/2014. If it moves the date again, I'm going to pull my hair out! LOL
 
Finally made it out of China! Hopefully it will be on UPS99 to Alaska next. Unfortunately delivery date slipped to 10/3... 6/64GB/SG/VZ
