Other EUROPE iPhone (2018) XS/XS Max/XR Pre-Orders and Dispatch Thread

Watch out !! I used it once to have the incoming package delivered to a delivery point for pickup, but to my surprise, if you choose a different address during the same day of delivery , then the package is delivered the next business day ( in our case on monday ) !!
I am pretty sure, that this warning was not raised when I used that feature...

Good to know. It kinda makes sense that the date changes in such case.

However, this doesn't apply to a change of the delivery timeframe.

Sorry to interrupt but do you know if I can get an delivery hour estimate with My Choice ?

You can't, as the shipper (Apple) didn't pay for a timed delivery, and they instead only paid for EOD (End of Day) delivery.

I estimate that if you change it within 2-4 A.M tonight, the timeframe shift would not occur...the courier, and with that I mean the physical person who load the truck and deliver the packages door to door, probably start to organize his daily job schedule early in the morning.
But I wouldn't dare to play with fire... ;-)

So... my iPhone has just got a UPS (noooo, I wanted DHL Express ) tracking number
My watch is still PFS though.

I can't even choose any timeframe other than 09:00 - 18:00. Glad I am self-employed and work from home.

Me neither.
It will be delivered during business hours.

why UPS... why? DHL Express is so much better (at least here where I live)

I agree with you. Rarely DHL miss a beat.

 

[DennisdeWit]

Brussels now. So tonight it will be Amsterdam and then it can be with delivery courier early.

 

[Julianne]

Oh wow, I've never got any SMS from DHL Express... This time is no exception.

Funny, seems like Apple is having a lot of distribution centres this year around Europe. Milan, Eindhoven, Nuremberg, Prague, ...

Mine is in Nürnberg now and on time. I will get it literally a day before I am off to Hawaii for 3 weeks. Talk about perfect timing!

It's moving

 

[MaximTV]

How long does it take for the UPS tracking to become active? My orders have been shipped a few hours ago, but no tracking numbers are working yet.

Apple has chosen the UPS Express Saver shipping method for us, and that guarantees a delivery on the next day.

Mine is just UPS Standard though... Probably coming from The Netherlands to Belgium so I guess the shipping service depends on which country you are in
