OMFG... UPS "missed delivery" of my package

UPS has done this to me in the past. Some drivers are lazy and that don't even attempt to deliver.
In my case they did ring the bell but was super fast I answered the door within 15 sec and this driver had the slip already made out and on my door and him walking back to the truck already I had to yell at him to get his attention. I mean 15 short seconds he must have ring the bell immediately attached the slip and started off on his merry way. He said sorry but I can't stay 1-2 min and wait for everyone to get to the door or else I would not get all the phones delivered today. Had I been upstairs I would have missed my delivery. Ups should hire extra help on these days.
Fedex guy rang the doorbell, put the box on door step, and ran away even before I opened the door. He didn't even try to get a signature. I checked their website. It shows release authorized. I ordered at att.com. It's better than "sorry.." though but...

Same thing happened with me, but the carrier was Fedex and ordered on ATT.com. I have setup the email alert for delivery and exception. Got the email for delivery exception stating "Customer not Available". There was no knock on the door. Just found the door tag.
Is there an option to pickup from the Fedex location or do I have to wait till Monday when they deliver again and again put a door tag without knocking at the door.

Call Apple and file a complaint... Again let Apple know about these incompetent delivery drivers.
I'm at the UPS hub now... Fing waste of time. Look at that line for pick up. Omg.

Freakin UPS is claiming that the street # is incorrect and changed the delivery to Monday. This is not the first time that they did this to my shipment. I called apple for assistance and they said they put in a request. I was on the phone for more than 30 mins. I asked if anything they can do to compensate for my time and frustration, I was emailed a $15 off $100, $30 off $200 or $45 off $300
I called them and asked if I could do that (I preordered from my carrier) and was told that my carrier doesn't allow that. Only allows deliveries from Monday-Friday and only when I miss the next 2 attempts I'll be able to pick it up.
Others have said that the carriers require Apple to use the address of record that they have on file when delivering devices, so the incorrect address may have come from your carrier.
That's bull crap are you in the US because I did just picked up just now and it's only the first delivery and for FYI they do have Saturday deliveries if they missed you on the Friday today
I know AT&T wouldn't let you change the address. The T-Mobile phones are OK they let me change address without any problems.
I once had a mba delivered to an upstairs apartment by fedex. The delivery guy came knocking on my door and had the gall to try to take the package back. He said he wasn't supposed to leave it even though I left the sihned document. I said I opened the box it's mine now. He said with a smug grin well expect an investigator at your door soon. I said fine! Needless to say I never heard from him again
Not necessarily true. If the shipper requires a signature UPS will not release without a signature. Verizon is one that requires a signature.
Yeah I live in NY. I asked about the Saturday deliveries and they told me again that my carrier doesn't do that. It's like they insist on me waiting till Monday. I don't want to but if I have to..
I only use 1 address. As I said before, this is not the first time UPS have done this. I "correct" my address on mychoice and when the package come, I peel off the "corrected" label and check the original label and it's exactly the same.
