Order Thread for UK (BST)

Abcmsaj said:
Just called UKMail to see if this was an option. They said it's down to the decision of the depot that the watch is in. They said they have an agreement with Apple that "one delivery must be attempted before collection from the depot becomes an option.

They then said to give them a call on 0345 155 4455 and ask them to check with the depot directly tomorrow morning to see if a collection is ok (It's down to the depot, basically!)

Bear in mind that depots shut at 12pm. My closest is Tewksbury, which is an hour's drive away... so I'd need to be up relatively early if they allow me to collect!

Brilliant thanks for that
Local depot is Only 20 minute drive from me and I have a 7 week old baby so getting up early is not a problem either!

Depends whether Apple trust the couriers enough to release stock tonight that will then be with the couriers until Tuesday!?

My money would be on yes, which would mean Tuesday deliveries for you folks. But to be on the safe side. Set expectations for Wednesday!

If they release tonight then you'll get a shipping notice later, which logic says Tuesday deliveries. Just FYI, I moved to Shipped at about 10.30pm.

Good luck - it's awesome, and whilst early days, I can honestly say it's another amazing product from Apple!

I read a lovely article (can't find the link now) that talked about the amount of time we use our iPhones as phones, and hinted at a similar experience with the watch. I don't know just now, but I can easily draw a similar comparison.

Good luck, it's worth it! (Totally crap launch, thanks to the taptic engine issue (it's a beautiful feature though, as it is like someone lightly tapping you on the wrist))
 
Most likely delivery I think ss might be waiting a while a crazy percentage of the order are sports I think they are wanting to get them done!

Delivery, usually carriers don't delivery Saturday unless paid for by the company and bank holidays are usually non delivery dates. Worked in customer service and handled a lot of queries in regards to delivery.

I will add not for Apple so may be best to ask them on there delivery day policy with the courier.

I'm so happy to have moved to preparing for dispatch. I'm not bothered now if it's Sat, Tues or Weds, I just want to know. When do think we'll be informed?

Mine has just moved to dispatched - delivered tuesday via UK mail

Mine did say dispatched yesterday but then reverted to preparing for shipment. Not sure whether this will impact it in any way.

Sweden here too (Malmö). Mine is at the borderlinx Depot hopefully it'll ship today since the UK has a bank holiday on Monday, borderlinx will use DHL to ship.

In total i payed 40 gbp extra for the borderlinx fee and shipping for my 38mm almost 4.500 SEK in total.

I'm also located in Sweden and waiting for Borderlinx to push out delivery today. I got the email from BL at 11:30 and I released the shipment at around 12. So that would be 10:30am and 11:00am UK time. Hopefully I get an email with tracking information. I added express-shipment to my order as well since my company is paying for everything.

My 42 Space Grey Sport has just changed from 'preparing to dispatch' to 'dispatched'! No tracking info yet, though I'm resigned to it being delivered on Tuesday and that's fine.

Would someone mind updating my entry in the spreadsheet? :)

Looks fantastic!! I can't wait for mine to get out of processing hell.

I've ordered two sport bands ! White and blue. I'll wait ages for it! :/ Thinking to get leather loop.

I think the watch is great itself. Haven't got any issues so far. All works perfectly. I'm just dissapointed there is no posibility to make a facetime audio phone calls. Also had watch under the water washing my hands, nothing happened so i guess you can have a shower with it, but not with leather strap! :)
 
Mine has changed to dispatched also, but the tracking info doesn't work on the UKMail website as of yet. I'm gathering it's going to be Tuesday.

But it says estimated delivery date as May 25th..... Any one else have that? :confused:
