Yeah. My current estimated delivery date has changed to today which is a bit optimistic. DHL say it'll arrive tomorrow. Yours will also update once they have scanned in your phone.
ADAM you are 100% right - i just checked my order page it is due tomorrow - THANKS A LOT BUDDY -

Going to have to troll through the previous few hundred pages to see what route lady weeks batch took!

You can only do that for online orders to pick up in store. Not for reservations.

I need to know about doing the reservation under my Apple ID and then my partner then going and getting it and going on iUP. As reservation will be in my name and heard stories that only the named person can get it.

Yep, this is definitely *pickup* not *(iUP) reservation*; two different things

I still don't get how Apple and DHL say it will be with me, delivered, tomorrow, but it hasn't budged from information received in the Netherlands?

You realise it takes less than an hour to fly from Amsterdam to most UK airports, right...? Most freight is flown at night too so don't expect much movement until this evening - but by tomorrow morning it will almost certainly on the delivery van.
 
Enter it on this: https://beta.dhl.com/us-en/home/tracking/tracking-global-forwarding.html? and it should show you the Air and Ocean Freight progress.

There is also a shipping reference number given in the dispatch email that you can enter here: http://www.dhl.co.uk/en/express/tracking/shippers_reference.html
Oooo thanks this is awesome :)

Great to see some of the early October people getting theirs early... Hopefully this means my one will be early as it says shipping in November, which to be honest is pretty ridiculous...
Mine wasn't even early October it was 12-18th!! On its way to a Netherlands now and delivery for 5th (think it could be sooner than that even!)

I know this has probably been asked and answered a million times. However I can't find it going back a few pages. In other people's experience how long does it take to change from PFS to Dispatched?
Mine took from 10pm last night until this morning by 9am. Have to say though I've had a couple of days before with Apple products so who knows?!

It won't stop me refreshing it every 5 seconds ;)
 
oh bummer just called Apple and the 27th Sept delivery is NOT exactly correct - Apple will send an email when the the item is out for delivery so it might still be the 4th October
 
10 hours to clear customs
Still looking at delivery tomorrow, no further emails to suggest otherwise anyway. Yet.

Well the 27th is today so... it's not today. It'll be delivered tomorrow / Thursday at the latest. It's in the DHL Express system now.
 

  • Apple says:

    You’re very welcome and thanks for waiting, yes does seem to be unusually quick and I can see here that DHL do have it estimated to arrive tomorrow but that our delivery date is still for the 4th.

    So it is possible though I suspect that DHL have just provided this date as when it will arrive in your area rather than when it’d actually delivered.

    But I’ll see if we can get any update/clarification from DHL about this and you can of course continue to monitor things via the order status page and DHL’s tracker here.(opens in new window)

    Any update though can take up to 24 hours so if you’d like I can get you DHL’s number and keep the chat open here while you ring?

    They might be able to shed a bit more light on this and a bit more quickly.

I had no problems getting a reserve item that someone else reserved and couldn't make it - just take the email in with the QR code and they should be ok, but it'll have to be your partner that signs up for iup for herself.
 
Just had the official Apple Store Billing Document via email.
The phone however would appear to be still stuck at Customs.

Looks like our phones are on the same batch, received billing document from Apple, but phone is still in China marked as "exception" for UPS.

But expected delivery is still 28th according to Apple's website.

I've just had an update, it's cleared customs apparently. It doesn't go on to say that it's on the way but at least it's cleared customs.
 
My JB+ 256 ordered at 08:21 had an original estimate of 17h-28th of October. Today I've cancelled a case from this order, it was going to be sent together with a phone in a same package. Looks like doing so has now delayed the delivery to 18th - 31st of October. I though that removing a case from the order would make it being sent sooner, rather then delay things even further:(
 
Just want to mention top service from Envirofone again this year. My 128gb 6s was delivered to them by Royal Mail this morning and I just got email to say that full payment £405 +5% (total £425.25) is winging it's way to my bank account. Plus hopefully £5 cashback via Quidco :D

They should be happy too - the phone I sent them was absolutely immaculate! I suspect mine will be listed as 'pristine' like the one currently listed for £540........which I have just realised is ony £60 less than Apple are selling for!!
http://shop.envirofone.com/buy/apple/iphone-6s-plus

So it has cost me £274 for the 6s for 12 months use (under £23 per month which is good I think!) Am not sure the 256gb 7+ will work out such good value :(
