At the top of the page under "tracking", go to "manage my home deliveries" - you'll probably see it listed there. You may need to sign up for UPS My Choice. It is free and SO worth it when obsessing over your next iPhone, LOL.

Looks like I just got that too! Got a text about delivery, clicked the link and voila - a map! Holy crap I'm going to get NOTHING done today.
Thank you!

I downloaded the app and got the information. So excited it's coming finally. Only down side today it that I'm working the later shift today and I leave for work at 1030 for an 11am shift. I have to wait till I get home by 8 to get it set up. Luckily my hubby works from home so he can sign for it.

He's a pretty well mannered puppy for the most part. His biggest issue is the eating dirt and rocks thing when we go outside. He's almost obsessive about it. Otherwise he is pretty chill most of the time. He plays with our other puppy, a female boston terrier-english bulldog puppy around 10 months old...and they play pretty hard. But when playtime is over he definitely knows the value of a well-deserved nap lol. He's doing fairly well with the housebreaking...we have some really good days with no accidents and then some not-so-good days with several. Still nothing compared to either of our other two dogs we have right now, a 10 year old female boxer and 9 year old male boxer. They were both a handful while housebreaking lol.


Wow, so four dogs in your home! Your one busy family. I'd love another dog, but we had to put our 16 year dachshund down last year and we haven't gotten another companion for our other short haired dachshund. Enjoy!

Yeah another satisfied customer! Still waiting for mine.

OH NOOOOOOOOO! I hope they make this right for you!
 
Work up to a text update from UPS that just said “EXCEPTION”, haha. Looks like it just has to do with sorting and finalizing my change of delivery request... hopefully I can still pick it up today.

Looking forward to no longer losing sleep over this device, hah. (Its only been a week and change since preorders... seems like forever, hah)

What the... that *is* the worst. I do hope they can sort it out, or maybe Apple can throw you a bone if not.

So pretty! Out of the box photo?

Honestly, considering I thought I wasn't getting this until late November, I am rather happy with this outcome.
Exactly! A little perspective is a good thing. :)

:(I was very patient & understanding until the rep said you’ll get a email in 24-48 hours :mad: WTH... He transferred me to a senior rep and we’re now holding for UPS again!
Omg! Just let me pick it up from where ever it is:(.. if not they can return it, I’m better off hunting one down in store at this point.

That is really strange. Ontario to Gardena is the normal route. Crazy how it got to Compton - I don't even see the equivalent of the Gardena CC in Compton, only stores, access points in retail stores, drop boxes, etc. Hope they can at least get it to you or Gardena. Mine phones are in Gardena at the moment, but this time they did not go though Ontario but Long Beach. Never saw that before.
 
Woke up to track this morning and both phones are in Riverside. They will be here late this afternoon, or early evening. I'm not going to make any changes at this point. I'm not going to pre-sign or anything. One of us will be home all afternoon and if by some chance they come in the morning UPS will just have to bring them back. Last year they were just dropped at my door.

I wish mine was on the flight to Long Beach. UPS told Apple that notes show an issue with delivering it to the distribution center. He says “Something about an issue with a train or something. They are saying it’s undeliverable and must be returned”. Senior rep asked are they saying it was damaged it transit? and he said yes. :( So now she said it must be processed as a replacement but I will be prioritized. After an hour on the phone she understood how upset I was And even said you are by a lot of Apple locations & I understand that you could walk in and get one before the original date of 11/17. I will call me back shortly with more info. :mad: Ok this is officially the worst pre-order ever.
At least when my 6+ was delivered chipped I could use it while awaiting a replacement. Right now I’m stuck with nothing:(
Right now the best thing she can do for me is hold one at a store so I’m hoping for good news soon.

If you are closest to the Manhattan Village Store, they may have stock. I heard that stores keep a supply that is not in the regular inventory just for situations like this. If that works, ask to see a manager and see if they can make it up to you with some accessories. I had a situation not involving an iPhone that they did more for me than I expected, so hopefully it will turn out ok.

Aside from your unfortunate situation, I think people are complaining about the pre-orders because it turned out the stories about shortages were not correct. Had it been impossible for anyone to buy from a store, I think we would think about the pre-ordering process differently.

Anyway, really hope for a good result for you. (And until the phones are in my hands, keeping my fingers crossed as well.)
