I just phoned TNT again and was told that my package is definitely on the truck and will definitely be with me by 6pm. I hope they're right.:mad:

I was told my package is definitely on the truck and that I will definitely get it by 6pm tonight. Then she said if not, it will be delivered tomorrow morning... How is that "guaranteed"? Bear in mind that this is a work address and we don't accept packages on the weekend, it'll be next week before I get mine.

Well, I might just go to the Apple Store on Regent Street and buy a copy there, then refuse the delivery of this one from TNT.

Apple shouldn't use TNT again. They're really rather cr*p.
 
For my package, Apple swear blind they have no idea why they asked for delivery tomorrow and can't find any record of such a request on their systems (and similar BS).

I got them to call TNT and Apple have confirmed that TNT expect the package to be delivered tomorrow. Am not a happy bunny, took a day off work for this :mad:.
EDIT: if it doesn't turn up by lunch time, I will just go up to Regent Street

Phone TNT back and make them deliver it to your home tomorrow :)
 
well this is now the 4th time i have bought something off the apple store only to be let down by the poor service of UPS. I think that UPS really does stand for Utter Piece of ****. There stupid green vans never ever manage to get to my house and then they'll blame it on me saying that no one was at the address to take delivery.

Not cool Apple. Not cool.
 
So I assume if we don't get the TNT delivery by 6pm tonight we shall have to wait until tomorrow or Monday now..

The TNT person that I spoke to said it would be delivered sometime in the morning - so if it doesn't turn up by lunch tomorrow, it's going to be Monday.
 
I'm in Huddersfield and the TNT tracking site is still saying "Out for delivery" (from the Bradford depot), so I guess I'm out of luck for today as well.

Anyone else in the West Yorkshire area who's had it delivered today?
 
I will personally go to my local deport and pick it up myself tomorrow, if they cant deliver tomorrow morning. Any idea what time they usually close up, midday-ish?
 
I'm definitely of the opinion that every TNT driver should have had a timer much like this one in their trucks today:

Maybe that would have speeded things along a little :)
 
I just phoned TNT again and was told that a lot of the drivers are running late today and it may still be delivered any time up to 7 or possibly even later. If not, it'll be tomorrow morning.

TNT really have screwed this one up :mad::mad::mad:
 
Well I installed mine... a clean install. In error log showed over 100,000 errors. Just reinstalled as an upgrade this time over 604,000 errors. It won't accept my name as admin to be able to install anything. I am now going to do a third install :mad::eek::confused:

Thats why i'm not going to call them up, they don't, and can't do anything, i'm glad i don't work in callcenters anymore, i really wouldn't want to work for TNT today!

It's the drivers fault if anyones
 
And sure enough, my TNT status just now changed from "Out for delivery" to "Please call". No Leopard for me today!
 
Date Time Location Status

26 Oct 2007 18:00 London City Driver Unable To Deliver Due To Time Restrictions
26 Oct 2007 09:27 London City Out For Delivery

Says it all.

Hi, I'm also in Huddersfield and my copy of Leopard came from TNT via Bradford and about 10:30 this morning. Sorry to hear your copy is delayed, should turn up tomorrow
 
Just thinking about it, one thing good has come out of my leopard package being delayed. It has made my mind up that i'll be getting my iPhone from Regent Street and defo not online. :apple:
 
I ordered from the Apple Store at about midday yesterday, after it became clear my Amazon order was unlikely to ship for release day (does anyone know if they actually did?). I received it around 11.45 this morning from TNT which really impressed me, so I guess that, unfortunately, it's luck of the draw depending where you are...

For what it's worth, mine said "Please call" from the moment I first checked the status this morning, but it still arrived today so I don't know what you can really take from the status messages as they don't seem too reliable! :rolleyes: Hope you get yours soon.
 
anyone still waiting for UPS like me?
Yep (well, for an iMac):

NORTH LONDON, GB 10/26/2007 5:14 A.M. OUT FOR DELIVERY
Your package is on time with a scheduled delivery date of 10/26/2007.

Doesn’t look likely know. :( :mad:

Anyone know the nearest UPS depot for North London?
 
Tip for those of you who, like me, are still awaiting TNT - use the TNT ireland website, it seems to give much better tracking info than the UK one for some reason.
 
Final update for TNT customers in the UK;

Due to a large volume of Apple products being delivered, items which were *MENT* to be delivered today by 6pm will be dispatched tomorrow morning and should be delivered between the hours of 8am - 6pm. If you phone their call centre tomorrow morning, they will be able to confirm if your item is on route for delivery :).
