Sanity

This thread is the only thing keeping me sane whilst I await my 8:08 SG BSB. So thank you all!
 
Hate UK Mail... Just called them up to see if i can collect my delivery from their depot - they refused. Apple's 'rules' apparently.

UPS have allowed me to do this in the past...

----------



Same, i've just tried and they refused. Not happy.

UK Mail are a right pain.

My replacement shipped and was due to be delivered yesterday, but was delayed by UK Mail (it didn't make it from Birmingham to basildon (a 2h30 journey) in 8 hours). Updated delivery date was Tuesday, called asking them to deliver today, and was quoted the same BS that Apple rules mean they can't deliver on Saturdays.

It's nonsense. I asked for a manager and hit them up on twitter - and suddenly my watch is being delivered today. They even had the cheek to say "Oh Apple must've approved it". Like Apple give a crap.

Oh, and when my original was delivered last week the guy was pretty much back at the van by the time I got to the door (about 6 seconds). I did give him a comment about not wanting to wait for me, but he just mumbled under his breath.

The bloke at the call centre didn't really sound like he cared or was willing to help.
i wonder if i can pay extra to get it delivered today?
 
Still stalking this page in the hopes you all receive your watches soon.
My husband is still waiting on his, but is also in the 42mm SG BSB group of hellions unworthy of a delivery.

I'm praying to Francis for your redemption every day.

More like Apple are cheap skates and didn't pay for it to be delivered on a Saturday ;)
 
Dover Street Market, the whole thing is exhausting and pretty frustrating really.

I went yesterday and got an appointment for Monday, they don't even know if they'll be getting a delivery. I thought they wouldn't but their deliveries are pretty big each time so could be some sort of 'special' delivery...who knows!

Last time I had an appointment they had no 42mm in stock - it's outrageous that they don't let you then make another appointment. Instead you have to come back another day to book and then come another day all over again. All without any guarantee of stock. GAHHHHHHH!

I'm hopeful for Monday but know it's unrealistic...
 
42mm are looking pretty slim - judging from the spreadsheet. Hope it catches up some time next week. Still processing on both my orders.
