iPhone 11 Pro Apple order 9/27-10/1 delivery

[ike00]

Landed in San Diego! I guess that must have been UPS 2922.

 

[khpatel8]

Can't wait to get my hands on. Finishing my all homework today so I can play with it tomorrow
iPhone X -> 11 pro Max

 

[hadleydb]

Vegas arrival!

 

[SparklyOne]

I just noticed that my Apple order still says 9/30. They aren’t taking any chances on that one, LOL.

Did anyone else get a rescheduled delivery on their UPS tracking for 10/1-10/4 group

Did anyone else get a rescheduled delivery on their UPS tracking for 10/1-10/4 group

If it helps, most of us in this current group got rescheduled delivery notices too. Mine went from 9/26 to 9/27 back to 9/26. So it may not mean much.

 

[madar1a]

That is me too near a Louisville. Do yo7 know if you have to sign ?

UPS page says I do, but we have Amazon Hub outside of my apartment and the drivers often leave the packages there. They left my Apple Watch there last week.

Yeah, I did but I’ve never had a delivery date from UPS, so I don’t know what they rescheduled. 🤣

WTH!!

A) you're probably in the wrong group. the whole thread, as suggested by the title, is for people who's delivery range was "9/27-10/1"

B) That literally happened to everyone in this thread earlier this week

C) Literally everyone's delivery date finally coalesced to the date originally indicated.

This is a volume deployment that clears customs en masse as a cohort of like 100k to 200k units, and is subsequently transported on a flight specifically chartered for the purpose. The standard UPS tracking system isn't really, geared for this sort of thing. There are scans on this shipment with status messages that literally only appear on *this shipment*.

Take a deep breath, You'll probably have your phones monday if you're in the 10/1-10/4 group. Keep an eye on flight CPA2084. I explained all this already. Okay one more time.

HELLO 10/1-10/4 ORDERS - READ THIS:
It may behoove you to take a read through this thread and note the sequence of events that happened to the 9/27-10/1 orders. The things you're seeing now mirror things that happened in that group. I did a metric buttload of investigation, called a few people who would share information they shouldn't, I know what I know.

TL;DR:

1. There will be scans with nonsensical statuses, and mysterious exceptions, and an inexplicable trip to Hong Kong.
   
   
2. The phones will seem like they're in Hong Kong for-*****-ever. You'll be convinced of an interminable delay. Someone will suggest legal action with an unclear degree of sincerity.
   
   
3. People will keep suggesting flights the phones might be on.
   
   
4. Seemingly out of nowhere there will be a departure scan from Hong Kong, and an Arrival Scan in Anchorage. The arrival scan, when it comes in, would indicate a time in the future! The travel time between HK and AK would seem to violate the laws of physics!
   
   
5. The phones will seem to be in Anchorage for so so many hours.
   
   
6. Then, like 4-5 hours after the next CPA2084 flight lands in Louisville, scans that make sense will flow like water, phones will be dispatched throughout the country in a matter of hours - pleasant surprise, you'll get your phones the next day.

iPhones ride on a chartered 747 from Hong Kong to Louisville as palletized bulk shipments. Until the pallets are split into individual parcels in Louisville, the tracking information is kind of irrelevant. It's like the difference between VHS and HD. VHS kind of sort of shows you the movie, you get the gist, but you're not getting even 1/10 of the picture. HD is a far clearer picture - but there's still stuff happening behind the scenes you dont know about. It's VHS until it gets to Louisville.

If your phones shipped out yesterday you'll probably get them Monday. Maybe they'll deliver saturday, who knows.

By all means, speculate about which flight, worry about problems, think there are huge issues, work yourself up about it.

Or just compare your tracking info to mine which is identical just shifted backward by maybe 2 days:

 

[cbigfoot1987]

Mine is in Nashville Woot will have it in my hands a day early!!

My phone has finally left ZZ. Departure scan of 9:24AM which aligns with flight CPA51 currently en route to Hong Kong.

“Someone will suggest legal action with an unclear degree of sincerity.” 😂

 

[Soulsearcher91]

I gave up on my pre order and just went to the local mall to pick up my 256 midnight green. I ordered the day of pre order, maybe a couple hours after open time and didn’t see a single update from processing. That was pretty lame. I’m in Canada, Calgary, AB to specific and it seemed I wouldn’t have got my order until Oct 2 by the complete lack of status updates.

 

[Zetaprime]

My order cancellation appears to have worked. UPS shows it being delivered to:

APPLE RETURNS
ATTENTION: RMA# 3238107229
1025 DARRELL WALTRIP DR
LEBANON, TN, 37090, US

instead of coming to my home. That means I don't have to be concerned about it anymore. Whew! It's in Nashville now, which is right where it should be. One less thing to worry about. Now all I have to do is stick my old phone into the return box I received today and take it to a Fedex store. Best of luck to the rest of you! Over and out.

 

[codapr]

Did anyone else get a rescheduled delivery on their UPS tracking for 10/1-10/4 group

I was on the Sept 30 - Oct 2 group and got bumped to tomorrow. I got the local scan a couple hours ago.

 

[jai151]

Well, looks like my phone has hit the local hub for delivery tomorrow.

Ladies and gentlemen, it was a pleasure and an honor

 

[jenaviveuk]

Mine is finally in Seattle! Woo Hoo! Suddenly I'm starting to feel so sick that I may have to miss work tomorrow!

4.5) Someone who couldn’t manage to wait a few extra days will go buy their phone at the Apple store. Then they will come back repeatedly to remind you they already have their phone, because you care.

[mgmusicman94]

I’m still stuck with a Kentucky departure at 1:52pm. I guess it could be on a truck to philly.. 11 hour drive. But I’d expect a plane.

 

[Fireproof!]

 

[Tekzilla]

My phone left the nearest big city and is on its way to a local depot I guess? It says I'm scheduled to get it later today still somehow. I guess I'll wake up and see if it says on truck for delivery in the AM. If not I guess Friday then? Strange.

 

[727danic]

I'm having a nervous breakdown right now, the girl who lives in the address my phone is being delivered to got out of town, she's like 15 minutes away and I begged for her to go pick it up at the local UPS hub tomorrow and she doesn't want to, I get it isn't her order or she has no benefit from it at all but I can't do nothing to get another person to go pick it up, it has to be her or someone who lives in the same address and she says she'll be back until Monday or Tuesday WHEN IT ****ING ARRIVES TOMORROW LIKE I CALLED UPS, I CALLED AND CHATTED APPLE AND THERE IS NO THING I CAN DO

 

[tubedogg]

Still, kinda pisses me off that Apple's initial shipments appear to have been overnight, for last Friday's delivery, and since then they switch to molasses and take their own sweet time. Mine sat in China for four days.

There was a customs issue with the second wave shipments. They did not intentionally slow down the shipping. It's likely we would have had them on Tuesday if not for the customs issue.
