It's the weekend bra.

UPS works 7 days a week but things only start really moving during business days, everyone knows this. I promise that they are working as fast as they can. Time is money and they want a lot of it.
 
Question,

Order status on apple.com says delivery Oct 7. UPS says delivery Oct 2. Which one is more likely to be accurate?

I'vs talked to an Apple Representative and she told me that our delivery date will get bumped up because inventory gets better each day. She told me this is the case for the group that has their delivery dates of Oct 1-6 which is being shipped already

UPS but don't be surprised if it's delayed a day or two. For me, Apple said September 29 but UPS said September 25. It ended up September 26 because planes kept getting full, import scans, etc.

Same here! And I don't know if anybody else has been seeing the same thing I have, but it looks like UPS is redesigning their tracking info pages on the fly; now there are 5 "stages" of shipping with arrow-like backgrounds to them, which appear to turn green as the package progresses.

What's even more weird is that I had 3 scans in China as of this morning, but now all of my previous detailed tracking information (including the expected delivery date) is gone! They've made it appear as though they just received the package and have just *now* assigned it a tracking number -- even though it's had one for days now... :/

What's your expected delivery date? (Sorry if you posted it earlier and I missed it.) Mine is supposed to be on Wednesday, Oct 1st, but like you'll see in the post above, all my tracking info went AWOL today. Does the UPS site, on your end, look like what I described above? And if so, are you seeing package movement and updates line by line (like normal)?
 
The UPS app is saying tracking is not available. All my previous tracking info disappeared.
 
Yea it looks like UPS is updating their tracking system and it's having a bad effect on... well, tracking. All the scans on my phone are gone, I'm back to "label printed, waiting for pickup". I looked at other shipments I have already received and the detailed tracking just shows the last scan and the delivery scan.

So I think they have a few bugs to work out this weekend. Don't panic. Yet. :( I'm sure the actual phones are moving along as normal. We just might not be able to see them for a bit.
 
No movement....still processing......

iphone 6plus gold 64 gb ATT ordered completed 9-13 8 am est from apple.com (ordered 9-12 but was provided "reservation")

I am thinking I will not get it early after all. As one poster mentioned, National Day is next week and I am not sure if factories will be open then.

I don't know how good this source is:

Thursday, 2 October.

It arrived in Knoxville this morning, so it should be on a plane to Portland or Seattle tonight or tomorrow and hopefully delivered Monday or Tuesday (my days off).

I wonder why they don't send the West Coast pallets down to Ontario (CA) for distribution via truck rather then send them on to their main hub in Knoxville and fly them back, but it may be that they don't have the capacity to ship via ground from there or Apple is using an "express" service and therefore time-wise, it's faster to fly China-Anchorage-Knoxville-Seattle than fly China-Anchorage-Ontario and truck it up to Seattle.

Anyone with Gold 6+ shipped? :confused:
Click to expand...

Mine is a Gold iPhone 6 Plus 64GB on AT&T,
 
Mine is a 6+ 64GB Space Grey with T Mobile... Still processing! :( I was really hoping it would be delivered this week... Now I'm mentally preparing to receive it by the week of the 9th-ish...
 
My 6+ 64 GB SG was scheduled for delivery Oct 14-20, UPS now shows early delivery to me in Canada on Oct 1st. Then I'll return to Apple as I was able to reserve and pickup the 6+ 128gb version at my local Apple store last week.

Mine was originally scheduled for a 10/1 delivery; however, it's now saying 10/2. Frustrating to say the least.

Again, everyone with a 10/13&14-10/20&21 window will all receive their phones mid to late next week. Mine said ship 2 days ago, but is still in China, this is by design as they're waiting to ship everyones at once.

It didn't update over the weekend. More likely just that it was just the weekend rather than any deliberate strategy. I've noticed pauses in the tracking info on weekends for other shipments before. I bet if you check tomorrow it will have moved along to another location.

I'm right there with you, SP: mine said 10/1 before the tracking page design changes, and now it's bumped back to 10/2 just like yours. It's also still showing that it's sitting in ZhengZhou -- is that where yours is?

Also: CWallace, you must live in the Northwest, too? And if so: it's interesting that your phone is already stateside, but your delivery date is the same as StolenPentium and I (10/2) - though it sounds like you may get yours sooner since it's farther along? I know there is something like a 24 hour customs/import scan hold done in Louisville once the packages arrive at WorldPort (not that you want to hear that). ;)
 
I forgot I ordered one and it is now finally shipping but the thing is I already bought one from T mobile....

I really hope you're correct. It's beyond me how some are showing stateside already with same delivery date as mine.
