I thought I was finally home free when my iPhone reached Anchorage and then Louisville after its long tour of Asia, and I received a notification from UPS that it would be delivered today. Then, this morning it "missed the scheduled transfer time," and now "severe weather conditions have delayed delivery." The website says delivery will be rescheduled for tomorrow, but I also just received an e-mail from UPS that it will be Tuesday. My original delivery date was yesterday.

Why did it go through Louisville if they knew a storm was approaching? It could have gone through Ontario, California. (I'm in California.)

I really hope Apple dumps UPS.

UPDATE: I called UPS and requested my package be delivered to my local UPS Store because my delivery date keeps changing, and I have no idea when it will arrive. The agent hung up on me.


Call them back and get a new agent. She was a jerk!
 
Ha! It's on the truck and headed this way!

No doubt it will land in my hands today. Sort of sucks, because I have to study for a test... It ain't gonna happen! LOL

Sweet! I just talked with a rep and for any of us that should've been delivered today, but will not because of severe weather, if you have a Saturday delivery, that is correct. She told me I was upgraded and even though my UPS says closed, that's just to the public. So she said that unless the weather continues, I should expect my package tomorrow! YIPEE : ) Faith restored (for now).
 
All those in the "A Team" group, I'll be curious how many got delivery today. I just woke up to 10/3 delivery!

Mine went out for delivery today at 8:18am this morning. I kind of figured as long as it cleared Louisville quickly. I am only an hour away from Louisville. Hopefully everyone else in the A Team will be getting theirs today as well.
 
Can someone please explain the 'A Team' and 'Z Team' thing?
I am new and its a little confusing.
However, its pretty cool that there is a developed system.:):cool:

Hi, shayshay02:

When I first entered this thread, I started to look at the tracking info that some members were publishing, and realized that that info was pretty much the same that mine. So I started to name each of us in each post, and we finally became the "A Team". Currently, most of us can say that our phones are together, stuck in Louisville due to bad weather.
Z team is a way that one of our fellow members refers to his own tracking information because he hasn't seen any movement for his phone, but hopefully things will start to move soon.
I know this can be a little weird and everything, but we actually have had a great time posting news about our tracking information to give hope to others.
Welcome to the blog, I hope you enjoy reading it as I have!

Sincerely,

Commander Skipper (Yeah, I that's me, LOL)
 
Huzzah! Arrived in Oakland as predicted at 5:34am. Yeah should be good from here on out. Still holding steady for today. Yeah UPS! Because fedex would have told to wait a week.
 
A Teamers with the 'weather' problem

Here is my chat with UPS. I find it hilarious that they call 2-days late 'upgraded' shipping.

I inquired about the Saturday delivery with UPS pickup location.. The rep is claiming they will be attempting to deliver it to my house??

Dear A Team members :

Dear A Team, good morning!

Commander Skipper reporting for duty!

I'm glad to see that many of you are getting your precious devices today! Cheers to the fortunate owners!

On the other hand, I'm sorry to inform you that mine is still stuck in Louisville because of bad weather conditions.

Any A Team member near Clifton, NJ?

I still don't know if we're to receive them today... :(

I received a delivery notice for today at the end of the day, but now I have a bad weather exception. I still don't know if we're going to make it today...

Greetings from NJ.

Saturday sounds definitely much better for me than Tuesday... Lol
 
First time caller, long time listener ;-)

I'm in the A team near Clifton and have a weather delay with Saturday delivery.

I think the only advantage I had is being in Northern Kentucky, so I didn't have to worry about weather. Mine got depature scan (on truck I'm assuming) at 4:53am and made it's way to the UPS facility up here at 7:07am. Out for delivery at 8:18am.

Hey Busy Bee!

Hahaha so you've been listening all this time and we could even be neighbors, hahaha!

anyone else in NJ, NY, CN area?
 
Just wanted to update because I said I would.

After being part of the infamous 6:33 AM Louisville shipment that seemed to be stuck forever, my phone finally made it to town Thursday morning. I used UPS My Choice to schedule a pickup, and I picked it up during my lunch break. I originally ordered the phone September 12 in the afternoon EST.

My iPhone 6 Plus 128GB is perfect and I love it! I really hope some of you who haven't gotten yours yet gets it soon. Good luck! It really was a long wait.

Great to hear that, my friend. Enjoy your new phone!

Try to stay connected in the next few days to give some hope for those who are still waiting now as you did. That's the spirit of this great community!
 
Wtf? Woke up yo this. My package is in Oakland. The only severe weather is the heat. Oakland is a 2 hour drive from me. The internets is toying with me.
 
Now I have this:

Louisville, KY, United States 10/03/2014 7:35 A.M. The UPS Proactive Response intercept for your package was completed. / Delivery will be rescheduled for Saturday.

Proactive Response intercept? That is comical. Now they want to be proactive?

I live in Fairbury - actually drove through Clifton on my way back home from Chicago yesterday. :cool:

I'm guessing then that mine will be arriving tomorrow as well. I'm in Cal too. Woke up to 3:56 ET import scan but no departure scan yet. Guessing it's due to the weather conditions.
 
Well, my fellow A Team members,

It's official. I have a delivery exception due to bad weather, delivery has been rescheduled for tomorrow... Let's hope it doesn't get worse.

Greetings from NJ

Sincerely,

Commander Skipper

"Hey, we're being proactive... by delivering your phone 2 days late."
