I've found out a little bit more info from TNT. I wonder why we're all so impatient!

Anyway, I've been told that the information posted on the web can get a little delayed (and so probably cant be trusted) due to the fact that it's coming from overseas. I have been assured that my shipment is at a global transit hub (which strangely, they wouldnt tell me where), and is still on schedule for delivery on Tuesday 30th.

I think it could have been made a bit sooner if it wasnt a national holiday through many countries today (probably stopping processing), and then a UK national holiday on Monday - holding up delivery time.

I hope everyone gets a Friday delivery!

P.S. My tracker still shows it's in Pudong with connection delays and has been there since 8am on the 21st May!!

Mine has followed exactly the same route - but the Apple tracking page (i.e. the page found in Accounts section of apple.com) is showing delivery for 24 or 25 May and suggests that the package is now in the hands of another courier. I therefore suspect that K+N will not see anymore meaningful updates and I hope that the Macbooks will be with us before the weekend...

Unfortunatly my apple tracking page is still showing 31 May, maybe i'm owed an update soon

 

[MRU]

Basically allow 48 hours from Sozhu/Pudong to get to Arnhem before you get updated. This could be upto 72 hours.

Then allow 48 hours from Arnhem to reach the next depot
Then allow 24 hours from TNT depot to delivery...

So 5 - 6 days all going well.

Same thing here and TNT told me the same thing they told you, with a bit of luck we could have ours delivered tommorow.....Just wish they'd update the online tracker....

BTW revieved 1gb ADATA stick from eBay I know alot of people have bought from this seller (mentioned earlier in this thread) so news that its fine arrived safely and looks like decent RAM if only I could test it out!

I have exactly the same tracking info, but no courier details on the Apple site. I just got off the phone with Apple, who can only confirm that it's arrived in Amsterdam. He says it most likely will appear on Monday (no bank holiday in Scotland). Hope he's wrong, if it arrived in Amsterdam on the 24th whats it doing today that it wont turn up tomorrow?

There's a public holiday in Holland today, don't know if it will affect TNT's work but if it doesn't there's no reason it shouldn't arrive tommorow,

A while after the apecode tracker says "truck arrived at final destination", TNT's tracker will suddenly spring to life - mine did anyway.

again, same as yours my assigned carrier is FLEX POSTAL & HUB UK, not TNT?!

Yeah - mine is Flex Postal and I can't find any tracking info for them. What is frustrating is not knowing whether it is literally about to appear ) ) or whether it is still somewhere on the continent mad: ).

I am now alternating between Stoicism (it will happen when it happens) and incredible impatience...

All I could find about Flex Postal was previous Apple customers wondering who Flex Postal is! It seems from their posts that it is an interim step before it gets passed to a regular courier and it seems UPS as well as TNT have been used in the past. Then I realised Flex = Flextronics, I checked the Flextronics tracker and sure enough its been updated today. Hopefully this means it will get passed to a courier today and they'll be with us tomorrow!

 

[andywhitt]

Just rung em up! Mines not in the country yet! Still aiming for a 30th May delivery date.

Change of Delivery Address

I changed the delivery address through Apple around 45 minutes ago and it has updated on the TNT tracker to show:

Date Time Location Status
25 May 2006 13:26 Change Of Delivery Address
21 May 2006 08:00 Pudong International Airport Potential Connection Delay
21 May 2006 06:17 Suzhou Shipped From Originating Depot
21 May 2006 05:56 Suzhou Consignment Received At Transit Point

So its been four days and my MB is STILL in China?!

So far it has been said that TNT dont update quite well...the updates seem fast to me

 

[dwbhx]

FYI, I've managed to contact Flex Postal & Hub UK (Flextronics) and, as it's stated on the Apple Order Status webpage, the warehouse is based in Daventry. I was told by Flextronics that my Macbook is waiting to be collected by UPS sometime today and delivered to me latest Tuesday/Wednesday (due to bank holiday weekend) or possible tomorrow depending on UPS service.

Once my consingment is handed over to UPS, the UPS ref number should be issued on the Apple Order Status page and we can track the item directly via the UPS website.

I really wish I'll get it tomorrow but I know I'll definitely get it by Tuesday/Wednesday next week.

25MAY06 13:25 MANIFESTED Mfst:C-52094633 LUT-UPS

UPS? deliver by UPS? anyway, i'm sure they will come by tomorrow!

 

[pyrrhouk]

just spoke to apple, my mac book is still in amsterdam, and is in a queue to be shipped with some company name i didn't catch. they'll then pass it onto UPS who should deliver it in a few days. essentially, the nice lady confirmed that the date on the apple tracking (31st May) is correct. hope that helps!

Posting from my newly arrived MacBook.

I openend it up and found the macbook box to be damaged. My heart sank.

Thankfully the contents are all perfect, macbook screen is lovely.

No mooing, no whining, it's as silent as can be.

Looks great on my icurve.

Just updating software, will post more later
