My phone seems a day late to the party. Anyone else in this group?

I wonder if it's possible to still see this before Thursday?

Am I the only one in this group that's STILL stuck in processing items? It's getting very old and aggravating that it still has not changed

I just called ups... said status has changed but for some reason not reflecting on site. just call them to get the latest. was a quick call bc no normal person is up right now lol ha!

so what does your status show online? and what did they say your status really is?

I'm in the same boat with you. 64gb 6+ SG ATT ordered 0530 EDT 9/12.
Still processing.
Still no charge.
Still waiting.
Still sad.

Mine is the same as yours!! It still shows on schedule for 23rd by the end of the day as well. What take them so long to depart from China???? :mad:

Probably because they are waiting for space on a flight. China produces and "ships" far more phones in one day than it can transport. Just because it is in a box and has a tracking number doesn't mean it can get on a flight right away. Those of us with 9/25 dates have them because we are "back of the line" and will have to wait our turn for a plane to become available.
 
He's a true hero of patience and virtue. If only we could all live up to his standards, but alas, all sin and fall short of the glory of Czicks.

Patience is one thing, but you can't deny the ridiculousness of some of the posters around here - convinced there is a conspiracy afoot because they didn't get their phone when they think they should. I'm excited for it too, but people need to get a grip.

And, by the way, UPS is not "making sure that you don't get your packages "early" - they are strained beyond capacity and are trying to ship them out in the order they are processed. Once plane space becomes available, ours will get moving again, as China produces far more phones in one day than they can transport out. We just unfortunately are at the back of the line for this wave of orders and will have to wait. And anything else you may have ordered from China never had 4 million of them sold in one day. So no previous example, even a past iPhone launch, can compare to this.
 
My phone is still in China and won't be delivered til' 9/25. I just checked and Palo Alto has the 6 plus in stock... So i just did the store pick up for 64gb, 6+, slate gray.

BTW, for you bay area folks, only SF store and Palo Alto have the 6+ in stock

EDIT: Alright. In retrospect maybe I am being kind of a whiny bitch. I take it back and apologize to everyone.

i know that UPS has done that on regular shipments. i've had packages arrive to the destination facility early only to be held since it wasn't due to be delivered yet. :eek:

as for back of the line.... i don't understand how they are choosing who gets shipped, when?

hubby and i have the exact same phone. i ordered mine first (duh!) an hour later finally got his order in. my order shipped first. a day later his shipped. mine is due wednesday, his monday????

and while i know it's just the way apple does business.... it still pisses me off to no end that instead of catering to their loyal fans that are willing to get up in the middle of the night and fight the preorder frenzy... and do a first come first served.... they hold back phones to put in the stores so they can get their time in the news :mad:
 
It's not for you to judge if other people's ideas or complaints are ridiculous or not. Keep yourself in check, not me. Whatever the reason is, whatever excuses or explanations you want to craft on behalf of UPS, that's your business. I don't like seeing my phone sitting in one place for going on 48 hours now. That's my business.

He's just stating his opinion. That's still okay on a forum, right? :)
 
Are we back on topic now?

Update on my end over night is a 1:45am departure scan - which means in time zone difference, the device should be in the states now or very soon :D

Still showing delivery Thurs 9/25

If it's in the states and being expedited, shouldn't take until Thurs I would think
 
hey pals, my package status has just updated to departure scan. I am pretty sure that 01.45 AM is in Chinese time zone. So our iPhone's left from China yesterday 01.45PM EST. i suppose we will get them most likely on Monday.

here is the picture of it. :cool:

Mine left at 1:45 AM as well. My other times are slightly earlier than yours but I'm still showing 9/25 delivery.

Yours left China? Can you post a screen grab? I think you'd be the first to have confirmation that your phone is on the move again. :eek:

Hey, where have you guys been? We need up-to-the-second reporting; no more sleep for you! ;)

Just double-checked and the last update I have is still the 7:10PM arrival scan at ZhengZhou yesterday.

Mine also says Thurs 9/25, but then says Early Delivery Monday 22nd on UPS website, check yours! :cool:
