Order Thread for UK (BST)

Order Thread for UK (BST)

I'm pretty annoyed with UPS; I rang them yesterday as soon as I found out that my Watch had been delivered to reschedule it to come to an Access Point (only 2 miles away) because I knew that I wouldn't be in at the time they are likely to deliver it. I was promised by their customer service that it would "absolutely, 100% come today", and they've now said after I rang them up early this morning - before the time at which the package had gone out for delivery the previous day, in the hope they would still be able to do something about it (when it said on the tracking website that the package was still at the depot) that it now won't be delivered until tomorrow, and that I can't collect it until 7:30PM!

Whenever I've had UKMail deliveries from Apple in the past they've always just delivered to a neighbour!

Oh well, I suppose the excitement/anticipation can last even longer now...

I am with you on this, i orderd on the 12th so expected a bit of a delay but to be put in the same window as somebody who orderd a full month after seems a bit rubbish on apples part. I just think this launch has been a shambles, the fact some watches were not available from day one is a mess when they all went on sale at the same time. The lack of comunication from apple over the orders just lesves a bitter taste to preorder another product again off them.
Saying that i know i will love my watch when it comes and i am already looking to order a second (38mm wsb) for my wife.

It feels bizarre that certain models were never available until after the launch and not even for try on in stores. If they weren't going to be available then they should have made it very clear

I am sure I will love it when it comes but it would be nice to know why there has been such a delay and to be honest I am now wondering if they are going to miss this window. 4 more days to be able to fulfil so we will see
 
I reckon today is the day, Apple only have 3 more days after today to fulfil the 12-27 date bracket.

Probably wrong and it will all happen tomorrow or Thursday knowing my luck.
 
No news at all today, so far.

Just did the online chat thing with Apple - they said there are no issues with order, so will be delivered as per the estimate, which, in my case, is 12th - 26th May.

Well, we'll see - it's all getting a bit close, what with a long weekend coming up.
 
There definately will be a load of orders dispatched this week to meet the 26th deadline.

Only thing is when? They could either meet the deadline before bank holiday Monday or 1 day after Bank holiday Monday.

But after bank holiday is risky and might be late and Appledont want to tarnish thier reputation so im
Guessing they will come by the weekend.
 
Well after a failed delivery attempt from UPS yesterday even though I left a note to knock on a neighbours address where I was I finally have my SS 42mm WSB now time to have a play :D
 
Congrats - have fun.

Just a quick note. When my son's watch was delivered I noticed that the package states explicitly not to be left with anyone else - so even if you ask for the delivery to be left at a neighbors the delivery company are not allowed to do it.

Thanks :D

I know they can't leave with a neighbour but I explained on the note that I was there guess they have to have someone at that address actually answering the door just incase your neighbours know you get nice stuff and leave notes on your door to deliver to them when you are out ;):D
 
My friend who ordered a space grey black sports band aluminium has just moved to preparing for shipment - he ordered around 8:24am.
 
Nothing here yet. Although my order was slightly late... Confirmation on 10/4 @ 9.29. 42mm SS Watch Link Bracelet. Heres hoping for a miracle today
 
No movement on mine yet but I was late on the 10th and not due till next week at the earliest just hoping it comes early.
 
Changed to "Preparing for dispatch" today !

27 May - 9 June delivery window, 42 mm SS BSB. Order placed at 10:06 (GMT) 10/4.

My 42 mm SW BSB still in Processing Items status...
