omg, how about some patience? It´s not even Apple´s fault! Blame the parcel service if you really feel the need to blame someone.
You should have heard about the iphone 4 beeing sold out and that you will just have to wait.
Surely it is Apple's fault, they choose to use TNT. If you do a Macrumors or google search there are loads of tales of woe relating to long delivery times dating back years, in all that time Apple have continued to use TNT.
For the record, I ordered my iPhone the day after orders were allowed to be made, the delay was down to Apple/UK phone providers not announcing their tariffs, I didn't feel confident to commit on the day of release. What looks like it is going to take over a week to ship something like an iPhone in the modern era is terrible, I have ordered things on Ebay that have been shipped via UPS in 2-3 days.
Not good enough Apple.
TNT international tracker is still showing mine as being in arnhem. So not impressed at this point in time. If it makes it to the manc hub today before 5 im going to go pick it up myself because otherwise itll take them to thursday to leave the depot and have a tea break in the 5 miles it is to my work .
Hope i never have to deal with TNT again.

Mine is in Arnhem too. Contacted TNT and they said there was an update and i need to call them.
I'm currently not in the position to call them, but if you want to know more please call them: 0800 100 600.. i'm interested in what they have to say..
I'm hoping to pick up from the manc hub too, although when googling it looks like it may hit Northampton hub today and then manc early hours of tomorrow. Frustrating!

I want to see some changes now. Tired of 15th july, transit to customer - shipment on schedule. They have charged my credit card but i can't see any info about my package. Ordered 16th and them have to wait a month. No no apple thats not acceptable imo. I wouldnt call it pre order.
Just got off the phone with them, still can't track my order. I ordered an iPhone 4 and bumper, shipment is listed as merge in transit GB, so I don't think I'll be able to track until they have "merged".
All the people who can track there shipments did you just order a phone.

Same here.
Waiting on a call back from TNT's care team to update me on what is going on. I wouldn't mind so much if their tracker actually gave any meaningful tracking updates as to where the parcel is and when you may be able to expect it, but it just seems to sit with the same information for days on end with no indication of what is happening or when it will be moving.
I notice the Apple tracking page has now changed this morning from a "shipment on schedule" to a "shipment delayed" status but still lists the 2nd as the estimated delivery date.
I'd say it is definitely worth bugging TNT - either by phone or via @TNTUKCare on twitter - the more people who get on their case the more likely they are to pull their finger out and provide some updates or actually decide to do something with the shipments!

Interesting. Where do the usually merge? In the final hub before going out to the customer? I've ordered 2 iphones and 1 ipad on the same order. Might be that causing the tracking problems.
Just got another invoice from apple. It says delivery on the july 7th (the apple website still says 16th)...
I cant see why not. It's not like its in Holland where mine is still showing as currently being .lol
Actually it is Apples fault my order says it was dispatched on the 1st yet the person I spoke to yesterday at the Apple Store told me it hasn't left the factory which is why they changed my delivery date to the 15th.
