I'm in the 1:34AM group and I just got my Import Scan. Was originally scheduled to be delivered today, now it's pushed back to tomorrow. Took off of work for nothing.

But you should be happy about that. After all, UPS is doing their best. /s
 
Just like nobody believed me when the import scans were going to start rolling in this morning, and then they started right on time. The import scan window is still going on. There's millions of people getting their phones that don't come on here to complain.

Not complaining. Just calling you out for your false predictions and the fake UPS prophet you claim to be.
 
I appreciate all the information that you're posting here, but I'm not going to believe you anymore. Until my iPhone is in my hands, all you're giving me (and probably everyone here) is false hope.

Wasabi tried to give us an overview of how the process works, and generally what to expect.

Wasabi doesn't work at Worldport, so it's not like he or she can wander down to the customs area and go WTF!?

I appreciate the attempt to help keep us informed of the process. I'm a 9/25er and don't believe it will get here early, but thanks to wasabi I at least understand a little how the process works.

That could be, which means ours will be the last to get scanned, but unlike when they sat in China because there were no flights out after they missed the Friday flight, UPS part-time shifts that unload and load will stay and work as many hours as it takes to catch up and get done in almost every circumstance. The normal shift is 3 1/2 hours, but if they have to go 5 hours right up to departure time they will.

i have a import scan, (delayed from its arrival to Louisville). my question is.... the only flight i can find for ups out of there to phx left early this morning at 4 i think. I've searched the flight aware info and can't find a flight to phx anytime today. so i have delivery date of the 24th, how can i get it by then if there are no flights?

As much as I feel like UPS butchered our shipments, I have a little more disdain for the Customs office taking their sweet time clearing our packages.

Still, I don't know what's the bigger joke though. Antiquated systems and practices with customs that make a 15 minute process a 15 hour process or UPS World Ease and their alleged mass processing through customs.

They have started rolling, but over half of the shipments have yet to be imported. You said that most everyone would get theirs tomorrow. I'd be shocked if that happened at the rate the import scans are happening right now. Its just occuring too slow for that to be the case.
 
Or maybe it's a conspiracy and WorldPort is going to keep tens of thousands of phones gumming up the system while shipping out phones that come in after yours just because they don't like you. Maybe you should be nicer, or I'll report you to my UPS puppet masters, who will ship your phones back to ZhengZhou to start all over again muwahahaha!
 
Let's see if you eat crow in a few hours...

There are 400k + iPhones on the ground with if the people overseeing this process are federal employees, there could be a bunch of Barney Fifes scanning them in.

This board is a small sample size. There are about 400k iPhones and about 100 people posting on this thread.
 
It doesn't matter what your date is. Mine is also set for Thursday the 25th. Like I said if it hit Kentucky then there is a great chance you will see the Ups guy at your door tomorrow. Air needs to be delivered by 12:00P.M. and most iPhones are by the end of day. Most drivers have an empty truck by 1 or 2P.M. I just want to share everything that I know. I have been there for over 8 years and know what goes on.

lol

Where do you get this over half of the shipments have yet to be imported number? This forum probably constitutes about 0.01% of the phones flowing through Louisville over the past 24 hours.

Nobody cares about the UPS process, we care about getting our darn iPhones NOOOOOOWWWW!!!!!!!!! lol!!
 
Am I like one of the 10 people with Import Scan today before tomorrow's delivery? Why is everyone freaking out still.

People are starting to sound more and more like spoiled children. I don't get it. My phone hasn't been scanned yet, but you don't see me crying, even though I want it asap.
 
Import scan.

Dang it, I forgot about the import scan. Last action was arrival at Louisville scan at 01:34 this morning. Mine still says 25th.

Well just reading this thread I can see that the 1:34AM arrival crew has started importing. The ones that do will ge them tomorrow. The 12AM crew saw their phones imported within an hour and are getting delivered today. The 1:56AM, and 2AM crews have yet to see an import, and will need to be done in the next 2 hours to see delivery tomorrow.
