Order Thread for UK (BST)

What are you standing up about?

You ordered an item with June delivery and don't have it in May!

Thats easy mate.

- lack of correct communication
- people ordered after me already have their watch in hand, so the whole order processing is off..
- people with an estimate of june already have their watch, no matter when they ordered, the time frame given was wrong. Again wrong information. How do I know if my time frame is correct???
- Link bracelets were never available on launch date
- US is getting orders everyday. UK once 1 week

And there are probably more members here who can make this list a bit longer

Not just link bracelets either, My SO has heard nothing about her modern buckle. Even the US have heard nothing and we are currently in the delivery window for it
 
Some serious amount of whining going on in this thread. Put simply, if your delivery date is shown as June and you don't have it today, stop complaining. You may complain on June 30th. Yes I would like my apple watch soon but I'm within apples estimate!

If you look at my list...
I am not complaining about getting it in June..

I wasn't speaking specifically about you, the thread turns very negative, I know we all want our watches ASAP but let's be positive

Postive yes, but also let Apple know all the mistakes it is making with this launch
They might learn from it..(wishful thinking)
 
08:16 here and still waiting and probably will be for weeks yet.

What I want to know is what's in all those UPS planes delivering into East Midland airports cus shure as ***** it's not Apple watches. Unless they are going to DSM and Selfridges
 
I guess it's worth baring in mind that the 4 o'clock rule may not always be the case. There's a UPS flight into East Midlands this evening just before 8pm so overnight/tomorrow morning remains feasible.

But don't get me wrong, I'm aching for an update here. My shipping window began today. I genuinely never thought it'd get to the point that I wouldn't have received it by now.

I hate to say it... I might have to take a trip up to DSM on Thursday.... Don't think I can wait much longer... 13th April order probably won't get fulfilled much before my retirement in 27yrs !! By which time I won't be able to see the screen anyway !!

From recollection, with DSM you have to book an appointment in person either a day or two in advance, then head a day or two later for the appointment, without knowing what stock they have.
 
All the folk getting docks - are they for your bedside table? I kinda want the TwelveSouth, but I don't have a bedside table and I'm not sure I want to look at the empty dock on my desk all day!

I just charge with the supplied cable all coiled up and ugly on my desk, but I hate it ;)

THIS..! I wasn't sure I wanted a watch so I came to the game late. I didn't expect to get my watch fast.

However, there's been numerous instances of people ordering last week and getting the watch the following day. A few of these have been for the same watches I'm waiting for.

So they're OBVIOUSLY not shipping I order received.
 
8.02 order 12-26 May so within my window for my SS 42mm with link and the Americans have been receiving theirs today so Apple have hit it right on the nail. My watch will be here is less than two weeks so no complaints as they are keeping to their delivery dates

Its time for us to stand up.

I am willing to write an official complaint.
This needs to be backed up by all of your signatures.
Its getting out of hand and is not acceptable anymore.

If someone had contracted to work from Monday to Friday, would it be reasonable for their employer to start disciplinary proceedings against them because they didn't turn up on Sunday?

Some people need to get on with their lives, wait PATIENTLY for their shipping updates from Apple and stop being such babies.
 
I only orderd on the 30th so was very late to the game and feel for you guys who have been waiting since preorder. with the link watches I think it's not right that the U.S. Has got them as soon as they are in stock befor there expected delivery date and have to wait, and you know that's when it will be, until Thursday. Past the the beginning of the expected delivery date. tis just not on

I agree.

I spent ALOT of time in this thread pre delivery (I was lucky to get mine in launch day), but everywhere you go in the forum, there are people who have turned into really entitled, cry babies.

This watch (more that any other Apple product IMO) has really turned people into Excorcist like, head turning monsters.

I feel everyone's pain that ordered at 8am and is still waiting, but the foot stomping and rage that goes in is just madness, especially as no one has had to wait longer than their original estimated ship date AFAIK.
 
They might be stocking up all week then doing a mass dispatch each Thursday, instead of trickling them out all week..? :confused:
 
I don't think its unreasonable to expect that at least a few UK peeps still waiting with 12-26 May delivery slots should have received their watches within the last couple of days. Seeing nothing just pisses everyone off and gives a bad feeling.
 
I got sick of waiting and picked up a "used" AW WSB 42mm at Game today for an £100 premium

Not a bad price and if I want I can currently sell to CEX for a profit #
