Hi guys,

I am not yet a student, although ordered through a HE website.

The status of my order is at 'Prepared for Shipment'

Does this mean all verification purposes have went through?

And it was like this from last night at 7pm GMT - should it change within the next few hours?

Thanks guys.
Jack
Please answer ASAP - I am going off to work very soon.
 
Yeah, I don't think that they verify if you're a student or not but if you recall, you did have to check a box saying that you were a student, faculty member, administrator etc. of aforesaid school. So you're bound if you're found out but they don't check I don't think.

That would get too cumbersome if they had to check every order that came in through the education store.
 
Wonder what they'd do if you weren't a student if they found out after you had received your product(s)
 
I think a little bit of wee just came out.

On a serious note, I assume once you have it they can't do much unless they revoke your claim if you have an issue that you are using student applecare
 
Hi guys -

Do you think I would receive it by Monday?

It had an origin scan at the Tamworth base in England at 18:39 local time.

Would there be sailings from Tamworth to Larne (near Belfast) every day being operated by UPS?

Would I expect it to be out for delivery on Monday?
