Stuck in Zhengzhou

[yg17]

maybe ask ups?

For the love of christ everyone, please don't call UPS and ask these questions, you're holding up the phone lines for their customers who have actual issues and questions.

Your phones will be here Friday. Thanks to time zones, the international dateline, and math, your phone can leave China pretty late on Thursday and still make it here in time.

Just think: Every dollar UPS has to spend on customer service reps to answer stupid questions about when their iPhone is leaving China is one less dollar they can spend on the resources that will actually get your phone to your front door.

It's not in China, it just hasn't been scanned in the US yet, which could be because they are holding things up intentionally til friday. The departure scan means it left china

Looks like we just landed in Alaska.

My tracking shows the same!

 

[nyc2pdx]

mine just scanned in Anchorage. Must have scanned the Atlas Air flight in late.

Aye brothers our phones are now chilling in mighty Alaska! Hopefully they won't freeze.

 

[CKtoph]

And just as quickly as they landed, they're gone. 7:23pm.

Were people really considering calling UPS?

This is war...nothing is off the table.

How are you guys seeing where it's coming from? All mine says is "Order Processed: Ready for UPS"

Label created yesterday 9/16

I am showing the same screen as you, but in LA and not SD. A main UPS hub is located in Ontario, so they really could just drive it to us and we don't need to see any updates before tomorrow night or Friday. It's not like we are in remote areas that need to go through AK, TN, PA, NJ, etc. to get to our town.

Bumping this thread. Mine is stuck there for 4 days. Now the date is pushed back. These packages are randomly put on the plane. Argh! Others have been seeing movement within 24-48 hrs ....

+1... Mine has been stuck there for 4 days and the date just got pushed back a day for delivery.

Mine's there too, not too worried after hearing other peoples stories of it being there and then being on the truck for delivery.

Hope you're right!

 

[Afluffykitten]

Does that mean that the shipping delivery dates are also somewhat inaccurate?

 

[eekcat]

Uh oh - Mine has been stuck there since 9/26 with an estimated delivery date of 10/02. If the 9/25 stuck-shipments are being delayed a day, I'm guessing that means that us 9/26 stuck-shipments will be delayed soon too.

UPS managed to get my phone to me from Zhengzhou in under 35 hours (from departure scan to phone in hand) so I'm sure it'll be fine

Sure hope so. There seem to be so many delays... they're on the clock for 48hrs for me now tick tick tick

I'm having the same problem as you... just a day behind. Look at my screen cap. Has yours started moving yet? I HATE how once a 'My Choice' delivery adjustment has been made (hold pkg at depot for pickup), that the scheduled delivery date disappears.

Mine is doing the same thing. It shows arrived at ZhengZhou on 9/26 and had a scheduled delivery of 10/2, well now it shows departed ZhengZhou 9/30 and now has a scheduled delivery of 10/6.

But a coworker ordered a phone as well and his showed arrived 9/25 with a scheduled delivery date of 10/1, and then his departed 9/29 and then showed a scheduled deliver date of 10/3, well now he just got an email from his my choice account with ups that he should expect a package tomorrow for delivery.

So I'm hoping this is just a delay in the ups tracking system and our phones are still on schedule for the original delivery dates.

Mine just left this morning also... Also indicating an approx. delivery date of 10/6. Our phones must have caught the same flight! I'm in Chicago. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that it will be out for delivery by Friday.

I'll repost as I see more... Would be curious to know your status as well.

 

[RByers8252]

I'm in Indianapolis. Just left this morning as well and delivery went from 10/2 to 10/6. Will post if it changes.

Where does yours show the aprox delivery date? I lost mine when I changed it to will-call/pick-up.

Also, I wonder where we're going from Zhengzhou - I don't see any arriving UPS cargo flights from Zhengzhou to Incehon: http://www.airport.kr/airport/flightinfo/IhCargoArrStatusList.iia?gubun=E

Is there anyone out there with a completed ZZ route? (trying to figure out whether it's zz->incheon or shanghai->anchorage->???

 

[Ramio]

Zhengzhou must be one bloated fella by now. It seems like he has a lot of phones stuck up his a$$

 

[eekcat]

Looks like there is/was a UPS flight (5X133) from Zhengzhou to Incheon scheduled to arrive at 7:13p - but it's 12:09a by now, and no scans in Korea yet for me...
