i'm in the same boat, hope there's some progress soon as otherwise it's looking like monday...

I'm getting rather worried now, as other people are saying they can see a lot more detail.
 
It dosnt look as if anyone is going to be in at my house tomorrow when im expecting delivery of the iPad, whats the chances of the courier (TNT) Being able to drop it off to my next door neighbor, if i leave a note on the door?

Unlikely. I imagine they know what they're delivering and have been told to obtain customers signature or return to depot, being such a high value item..
 
On the UPS site you can tell it to email you when the status of it changes.

Mine said shipped to Liverpool on 10th March. Today I must have seen 20 UPS vans/lorries and it's getting delivered to city centre, so here's to hoping I get mine tomorrow.

UPS did this for me OK when my MBP was delivered. You can but try!

Thanks for this - I am Prem 24 as well! Can we therefore starting planning our day on the solid assumption that we shall have our iPads by 12? It would really be helpful to be sure of this!


I would say no - My iPhone 4S was on the same Premier 24 service and was delivered after 13:00. Maybe due to volume of orders.

I left such notes for TNT deliveries in the past, and they never did it. They normally left a note on my note that they couldn't do it because it required a signature. However UPS, DPD, CityLink and others have done it many times.
 
My TNT order status just updated with 'Please call'. So I called. It turns out they're waiting to receive my iPad from Apple and expect it to come along tonight for dispatch tomorrow morning. It's a bit of a bummer to find out they don't even have it yet! That said, I remain hopeful for a timely delivery.

Anyone else had this conversation?
 
I've just been able to view my TNT order now. It says it's in my town :D So tomorrow is a definite.

That said, Zunjine, it says the exact same thing with me as well, so if they said that to you on the phone, then I'm in a bit of a worry now as well. I really hope there isn't any issue getting it to me on time. It says my parcel is waiting in my town though.
 
My UPS is still saying this so hopefully will update soon.

A UPS shipping label has been created. Once the shipment arrives at our facility, the tracking status--including the scheduled delivery date--will be updated.

Just called UKMail with regards to why my order has a status of 'Delayed' and changed delivery date from 16/03 to 19/03. Am based in London.

The customer rep has stated that he is not aware of any issues on their network, and the package was collected this morning to be sent to the main Birmingham depot, for further distribution to local areas tonight.

The system message is an error apparently, and it should still be on schedule to be delivered tomorrow.

This is exactly the line they spun me... I spoke the a lady called Sharn... don't know if that makes a difference...

She assured me mine would be on time tomorrow despite it saying "Delayed" apparently it would have been with me today if it hadn't been loaded onto the wrong van!

Idiots!
 
Thinking even though I get my delivery tomorrow on the 16th, as I have a Tesco nearby to go and collect one tonight at midnight, as they have them in stock (confirmed on the phone)...just wondering though will Apple pick my iPad up and refund it like that, or will I have to go to an Apple store to return.

Cheers

Why would it say noon? UPS ALWAYS deliver untill like 9pm. All my Apple orders have came by UPS pretty much and arrvied at around 7-8:30pm from a guy in a car/van everytime.

Thankfully mine is coming by TNT this time which is by 5.

Literally moments after posting the above my status on the UPS website changes to in transit, on time, delivers by end of 16/03

Let's see if it gets to Cardiff it's currently in Tamworth........
