This is slowly driving me insane. I've only done this with my iPhone 6 but by this time then, it was already waiting at a Carphone Warehouse store for me to pick up.

It's just the not knowing, if I knew it was definitely going to be June, I'd forget about it... but it's obviously going to be before then, and some people today with June deliveries seem like they might be getting theirs on Friday. :eek:

Sport 42mm with White Strap btw.

Same model and strap combo and mine is prepping for dispatch, card charged yesterday. Order confirmed at 08:08am
 
so is the "charging" process still occurring for us UK folk? or does it just happen between 3pm-5pm?

Think it's done and dusted for now. Don't think there will be any more charges tomorrow. Things will probably pick up after launch day because tomorrow will be about getting the existing batch to couriers. I'm waiting for a SG sports to be charged and am most disappointed. Guess I'll be waiting for the next round of stock from China, which could be weeks. So much for getting up at 8am for preorder.
 
Order help - is this all correct

Hi Guys

I have been following this forum with bated breath over the last few days :)

I ordered very late on the 10th April at 4.10pm (ish) in store, as I wanted to have a try on appointment to choose between the 38mm and the 42mm. I have a 12th - 26th May delivery date. I booked my try on appointment as the app store opened at 8.01am - I soooo wish I had just ordered instead :eek:

Anyway my worries are:

1) I ordered on-line whilst in the Apple store but I didn't receive a confirmation email :-( I went and spoke to the rep that took my order an hour or so later as I was still in the shopping centre, but was told my email would arrive soon. He checked my account and confirmed it was in the system.

Well the confirmation email didn't ever arrive (didn't go to junk folder either) but I have an order number in my Apple account and in my App store account and it shows that my order is supposedly processing - so I guess this is ok???? I'm just worried that there is some muck up somewhere?

2) I have not had any pre-authorisation £1.00 come out of my account. Is this because I have already ordered with Apple using the debit card on my Apple account? Or is this more evidence that there might be an issue?

Not that I am obsessing or anything :D

If anyone can shed any light (or give lots and lots of reassurance :D) that would be fab.

Thanks

Hi everyone. I've been lurking in the background enjoying all the posts since I ordered my watch on the 10th. I ordered the Sport with the green strap 42mm and I got confirmation at 08:04. My money has been taken and it's preparing to ship. I've signed up to comment because nobody seems to be getting an update for the black sport 42mm. My dad ordered one at 08:02 and his money has been taken and it is preparing to dispatch.

I'd expect them to continue charging tomorrow... don't lose hope.

Cheers mate - thats the one I've ordered. Mine is still "Processing", but I'm not too worried; I'm pretty sure it'll be here on Friday.
 
Just looked at when I got dispatch email for iPhone 6.

It was 6:48pm on the 17th and delivered on the 19th

The missing authorisation could be because you used that card before, fair point. But also some user mentioned that they have had that test charge only yesterday.

In regards to your order: Can you log in to your apple account in the store online and see your order? Or look it up with the single order number look up.

I'm in the same boat! Is it Apple's usual policy to take money without a clear delivery date?

Sounds like what happened me, apparently the bank have authorised the payment but apple havent taken it yet
 
42 SS BSB still nothing for me #. Given up for Friday now.

Thanks for entertainment and sharing the pain on here though!
 
Preparing for dispatch but still May date....

I'm in the UK, Ordered 2 watches as soon as i could when released.

38mm White sport was showing as delivery for on Friday but the 42mm space grey sport was May 12th - 26th.
White watch was showing as preparing for dispatch last night then this morning so was the black, however the date on the black still says May. My card has been charged so i assume i should get them both Friday. Fingers crossed.

Hey, first post, been reading for the last few days but thought I'd join my fellow 42mm space grey pre-order-ers. Confirmation received 08:04:15 still processing and no charge taken :(

12th - 26th and preparing for shipment while my 24th - 8th is still processing!
Gives me some hope that mine may be arriving on a plane today or tomorrow morning!
