Concerning he knew what it was

Not really. I suspect they've an exceptionally busy day ahead, it's natural they'd enquire why there's a tonne of identical shaped parcels.

I remember when I got my iPad 1, the UPS or TNT guy (can't remember which), said he'd delivered a tonne of iPads and every customer was grinning like an idiot when he handed it over :)
 
Same here Striker...guess they are on the same van.

Hope he gets on with it, I'm going disproportionately derranged here.

:eek:

Mine started tracking just after 3pm yesterday, and apparently that means it'll be a similar time today when its delivered :(

I have a delivery coming from Thorntons as well for Mother's Day presents, so no doubt the doorbell will ring, I'll get all giddy with excitement, only to be left disappointed by a stupid Yodel man standing there :eek:
 
Out for delivery in Liverpool (Destination Liverpool) since 7.12am

Can't be that long now, surely?

Then a quick walk down to the Apple Store at 10am to pick up the new Apple TV, and we're all set :D
 
I'm confused.......half an hour ago, mine was "at the Newcastle depot". Now the status has changed to:

16 Mar 2012 07:24:37 DURHAM Shipment loaded to vehicle.
16 Mar 2012 05:35:49 DURHAM Shipment received at destination depot.

Weird.........This is what it said before:

16 Mar 2012 08:16:24 Newcastle Out For Delivery.
16 Mar 2012 07:24:33 Newcastle Shipment Received At Destination Depot.
16 Mar 2012 06:29:27 Newcastle Shipment Received At Destination Depot.
16 Mar 2012 05:35:49 Newcastle Shipment Received At Destination Depot.
15 Mar 2012 18:01:00 KG4 Shipment Received At Transit Point.
15 Mar 2012 15:24:00 Nuneaton Shipment In Transit.

There isn't a Newcastle depot, its at Rainton Bridge, Durham...
Anyhoo looks like IPad Roll :D

Striker, know what you mean. I've got a builder here today, he keeps running up and down the path to his van and driving me demented !
 
mines just arrived, first delivery of the day for the courier, he says he has loads in his van!

Mine was just delivered to my office. 8:45. Still in shock - was expecting to have to wait all day.

This is what I need as our office closes early afternoon on Fridays and I don't normally work later than 12:30!!

If I its not here by 12, I'll phone up & if I'm on a late delivery slot I'll have to spend the rest of the day at the Trafford Centre. It'll be a bad week for my bank account!! :(
 
Still not left the depot and it's nearly 9am. I'm going to have to wait all day, I know it. Saw something yesterday on one of the tracking sites that mine was due for delivery at 1800 hours. Hope that's not accurate!

Not seeing as much information on the UK Mail site as other people either. Not even sure where the depot is.
 
TNT in London City Depot. I called them he said it will be out for delivery and he can't give me a specific time. I hope i do get it today :S
 
Frustrating - we have workmen in the street, and they keep arriving in Transit Vans and then going away and coming back.........Each time I'm jumping up thinking it's TNT and being disappointed.

I can't take it any more!
:(

where is yours being delivered in London? I'm still waiting for mine to leave the depot at London City too...I wonder if I should just wonder over there and pickt it up.
 
Just got to work, logged on, enjoying a scone, nice cup of tea and guess what's turned up...?

Playtime :D
 
It's Here

Mines just been delivered by UK Mail but their website still shows it as being 'At Delivery Location'

WooHoo!

:)
 
I arrived at work just as a UPS truck was leaving - This was at 8:50 am. If my ipad was in there, would they come back later or am I going to have to go to the depot or something?
 
Mine moved from Nuneaton to Birmingham ( where i live ) overnight and was out from delivery as of 7:15am. My only issue is, the TNT depot is near St Andrew... the Birmingham City stadium and being an Aston Villa supporter, i hope the iPad hasn't become contaminated during its night there. The disinfectant is on standby........:p:p:p
 
i signed for mine on paper, no electronic pod, its still showing as arrived in local depot at 7:38am

Oh, ok, that's comforting! Maybe they've got so much work on they've got extra people working and their system can't cope.
