DPD are brilliant - even allow you to track the driver and they give you the drivers name!
I've had both DPD and UKMail and they're both reasonably reliable in Bath, guess being a smaller city helps. Three use UKMail and they delivered my last iPad just fine, within their timeframe. I once had a DPD package completely fail to arrive and had to complain on Twitter to get the delivery bumped up for the next day.
Yes it was ordered 10th April - I might have edited that in whilst you were replying
I have had DPD deliveron a Saturday - I am in Hertfordshire.
I had dpd come round on sundays, love dpd, everyone should use them

Probably again due to luck of area, but local ones are always friendly and tend to come on time. All circumstantial, but they did all they could to fix a bad delivery too. I'm always happy to see they're my delivery company and getting that text in the morning of delivery is always helpful.
I do like their tracking system that shows you how far away they are, or is that not available everywhere either?
I'm in the West Country, so I always assume whatever is available here is available everywhere
I've just had a call from the Apple shop in Leeds.
They wanted to make sure that I knew that I needed to take a watch for my store AppleWatch workshop appointment on Saturday.
I explained that my order still said 24/4 - 8/5 but that I was hopeful it would arrive on Friday.
She asked what time I ordered (my email is timed 8.03) and she said it should be fine and they'd see me on Saturday.
I know that this means NOTHING and she probably doesn't have any more information than I do, but I am nevertheless encouraged.

I'm in Somerset and aye, I'd presume if I get it here, you'll get it everywhere, hehe.
Hello fellow Leeds forumite! Mine had better arrive on the Friday as well now.
Looks like we'll get some movement in the next 48 hours then. Particularly interesting that a store has called out to a customer. Doubt they know anything more than anyone else here really, but I did wonder if I would get a call about that from my local store as I am booked in on Friday afternoon!
We can go start a riot at the Bath store then, if the watches aren't with us by Friday
So Hong Kong people are getting preparing for shipment now,
I'm still holding out hope for my link bracelet on Friday, I want to believe

Halifax here but Leeds is my 'local' store
Tempted to book onto one of these workshops but I'll be too busy (hopefully) playing with my watch on Friday.

Well, hey from central Bath - The apple store is a 5 minute walk from me!
I've had stuff by UPS and UK Mail here. Never DPD. I'm hoping for UPS, as i've already got UPS My Choice setup!
