Just got an email from UPS. Delivery on 10/3!!

Well, pickup since I asked for a hold for pickup. I have EVERYTHING crossed.

No tracking updates yet though.

Wow Musham! Thats amazing...! Delivery tomorrow? Wow... Sounds cool! Where are you located? Our phones are in the same boat... Along with eMagine, nikocb, JJJensen, musham, ArmyOfOne33W, kY Wildcat23, smb2886, zunaidahmed and now tgkforever.

Perhaps we can start getting ready for delivery as well... By the way... Any of you guys near NJ?
 
Grrrrrr mine changed to to import scan at 12:29pm and from today to tomorrow delivery. This makes me so angry, especially because it's being delivered to my work and if it doesn't make it by 3pm tomorrow I won't see it until Monday. UPS SUCKS.

Just got a departure scan from Louisville at 2:46pm. Looking better and better for tomorrow. Can't wait!

Can't believe it, but woke up and my phone was in Pittsburgh and now out for delivery!! Started in Alaska and traveled quickly overnight! yay!
 
Just "chatted" with a UPS person - I asked why the delivery is moved from today to tomorrow. This is his response:

Adam B: Due to special Apple operating plans, scheduled delivery dates fluctuate on U.S. imports. The date may continue to update until the package enters the U.S. through our KY facility. Once packages are imported into the US, the scheduled delivery date should no longer fluctuate. As soon as we have more information about the delivery it will post to the web site. you may use the "request status updates" link on the tracking page to receive information as it becomes available.

Cindy: So, if I have an import scan at Louisville, then my date of 10/3 delivery should be firm?

Cindy: Hello?

Adam B.: I can not be sure. I do not see that it is complete yet


It is frustrating.....

Our phones have this same route (see attached image below).

We have good news from a poster who had this very same route but with a day of advantage, and he is receiving his phone TODAY. Now we have a confirmation from musham who is to get his phone tomorrow according to th courier.

Anyone else who has the same tracking info...?

Any Chicago people with delivery date of 10/2, now 10/3 see any movement out of Louisville yet?

I have the import scan earlier. But I see a lot of flights have been cancelled into Chicago for the rest of today because of the storms around.

Not sure what that's going to do.

Ah, yeah, I bet all the flight problems in Chicago have had an impact on some of this....
 
this is such ********. UPS needs to fix their stupid system.

my phone shipped 9/26. according to the system, it has departed ZhengZhou three times and now it is in Incheon.

How did they find a way to make a five day delivery take 9-11 days?!

Here is why, according to the online chat with UPS just now.

Larry: I was supposed to have a confirmed delivery of 10/2 for 1ZV5F10167331XXXXX - but I have no idea what is up. It shipped on 9/26/14 !!!

Tonya G.: Is this for an iPhone delivery?


Larry: yes it is

Tonya G.: I am sorry for the confusion regarding this delivery date. iPhone shipments that originate outside the U.S. will receive international-related scans. Until a true scan occurs in the U.S., the scheduled delivery date may continue fluctuate.

Once packages are imported into the US, the scheduled delivery date should no longer fluctuate and you should receive your true delivery date.

For this reason we would recommend that you continue to monitor your shipment at UPS.com for updates as they come available and to request Status Updates. I certainly apologize for any frustration this conflicting information may have caused you.

Larry: And no idea why it sat in Zheng Zhou for 5 days, then took another 24 hours to go from china to korea to hong kong instead of alaska?

Tonya G.: I'm truly sorry, this is due to special Apple operating plans, not due to problems with the movement of the package.

I am truly sorry for the confusion with the scan. Once you package enters the states and has cleared customs you will received updated and revised delivery information.

Larry: So, Apple's plans are to totally confuse the "you know what" out of their customers, and UPS can't provide proper tracking or timely delivery? Did their special plans include some people ordering the same phone a week after me and having it delivered yesterday?

Larry: The package left hong kong around 4:45AM colorado time today. any idea where it's headed next?

Tonya G.: I'm truly for this. I wish I had more information to provide, however I do not. If you would like, you can reach them at: 1-800-692-7753 or 1-800-MY-APPLE for additional assistance and information regarding your delivery.

Yes, I believe UPS63 is the flight our iPhones are on. Should be landing in Alaska in the near future. :)

Not sure what that's going to do.

Hopefully not this:

This was a UPS 767 that tried to land during a thunderstorm in Houston back in 1998.

Thanks for the update and noticing I was in that group. I have an unlocked iPhone 6 that I must return by end of day tomorrow if I liked using the 6+ more for a couple of days. I bought the 6 on 9/20 as a no-contract T-mobile and popped my ATT SIM into it, and tomorrow is the 14th day and deadline to return. I knew that I'd get the 6+ by last week or this week since I ordered on 9/12.

Now, thanks to Apple's delivery delay plans I wont have enough time to use both phones side by side and decide whether I will return the 6 or the 6+.

I could still return the 6 by the deadline tomorrow and use my daughter's old 4s until the 6+ arrives (since I gave her my 5s when I got the 6). But then if I don't like the 6+ and return it I'll have to buy another 6 again, and re-install my Zagg protector. I might just keep both phones, use for 10 days, and either sell the unlocked 6 in a private sale or return the 6+ for a refund...

PS - after my CHAT with UPS cust service the screen shows an updated delivery of 10/7/14, which was originally 10/2/14 and back to that at 1AM today.

I just got an e-mail from Apple and I got excited until I realized they were just notifying that someone logged into Find My iPhone. I wish I could Find My iPhone 6+ lol.
