this is the crazy journey my iPhone 7 took back in the day!

And after all that you missed the first delivery!
Lets hope for better luck this time round.
 
Just got my apple dispatch notification as well now!

Edit: Does anyone know when we get the VAT receipt? I need to run it through my business - i thought you got that on shipping confirmation but can't find it?
 
If people lived by trustpilot and trusted reviews a lot of companies would be out of business.

Costco are a huge company so I made a calculated decision to order from them and it will arrive when it does. Not much they can mess up if it’s coming direct from a warehouse or shipping company.
I'm with you on this. The guy I spoke to seems clued up and knew where to look on the system so we shall see, hopefully we can report good things by the end of the week.
 
Same position. No shipping update from Apple, supposedly delivers tomorrow, and nothing from DPD or UPS MyChoice.
very similar to iPhone launch day deliveries... the DPD folk get an early notification in the DPD app, the DHL/UKmail folk see a DHL notification later in the afternoon. the iPhone status changed around lunchtime or so and started showing 'shipped'. at this point you can follow the tracking link which is updated in the apple order page which takes you to syncreon. from there, you can get to the DHL reference.

for my iPhone 13 this year, I got a DHL text with 1 hour time slot at 7am on the day of delivery

I've found that Apple typically email VAT receipts shortly after delivery. Likely you'll have it sometime in the next day or two.
 
Hoping mine is DPD or DHL as the depots are both on the same industrial estate where I work (so doesn't matter if I'm home or not), so knowing my luck it'll be UPS.

Still on 8th-11th November date though so far, PTS. 14" 10-CPU, 16-GPU Pro, 32GB Memory, 512GB SSD.
 
Can you go to tracking options and pick your timeslot?
Ah ok. Nevermind, i thought they assigned it to you. I'd rather not pick the timeslot. I've been burned twice in the past where I choose a timeslot for a next-day delivery, and then they end up not delivering it that day at all because they cannot fulfil that particular slot at such short notice (since it might not correlate with the driver routes planned for that day).

If I don't hear anything by tomorrow maybe I'll wonder down to Costco < 5 mins drive and see if they have any in warehouse

I was wondering that but then I can't pay using PayPal over 3 months!!!
 
Dispatched via syncreon in a big batch who usually pass to UPS distribution hub.
 
Got my tracking from DPD also. Delivery tomorrow. I'm very excited :)
