Other UK iPhone (2018) XS/XS Max/XR Pre-Orders and Dispatch Thread

[retrospek]

Yay - my UKMail delivery of the Watch and iPhone should be with me between 8:27 and 9:27... Not long to wait...

 

[Jinjin]

It’s 8.06..
Someone here must have got their phone by now??!

 

[djvidi]

.....massive queues then!!
😀

Hopefully stays that quiet when I go to pick up at lunch time

 

[danlocke]

I remember queuing there for my iPhone 4.

You’ll be fine, Regent Street store will absolutely have more than 131 phones available for walk ins. 🙂

They’ve said as much. Much more concerned about having to bail to get to work on time 🙁

 

[FFR]

Nope not yet.
I think dpd is slammed today.

 

[FFR]

#131 in line at Regent St with no reservation, ~1hr before I need to be in the office. Let’s see how this goes...

How long is the cue?

UKMail: “Your parcel is due to be delivered on Friday 21st September 2018 between 14:44 and 15:44”

Not bad. At least I know when it’s coming!

Nope not yet.

I generally don't get DPD time slots Until after 9am. UK Mail drivers are out the door by latest 8am so you typically get your slot sooner. DPD seem to leave the depot much later.

 

[Uglybloke]

Delivered here by UK Mail - hope you all get your deliveries soon!

Pics or it didn’t happen! 😉

 

[Mikey86uk]

UK Mail in Bristol must be slow.

Still havent had a text to says it out for delivery and tracking hasnt updated either 😱

 

[r1biker]

Watch ordered from John Lewis for delivery tomorrow. Waiting for the email confirmation though.

Happy new iPhone day! 😀

My store appointment for my IUP upgrade is at 13:30.

 

[GarethR]

Had the UK Mail text. 15.31-16.31. 🙁

Not much luck this year.
iPhones are being delivered by dpd and Apple Watch by Uk mail, both are showing that they are still at the depot , but I think they just haven’t updated the tracking page yet.

Well in to Hanover square now. I’d guess 250 ish.

 

[WhiteWhaleHolyGrail]

All quiet on this end. DPD update simply says it's awaiting delivery today.

 

[FFR]

Well in to Hanover square now. I’d guess 250 ish.

That sounds intense.

 

[alFR]

Had the UK Mail text. 15.31-16.31. 🙁

lol same as me. Going to be a long day of hoping the driver doesn't get delayed and just decide to sack off the last few deliveries because he wants to get home (has happened to me before with UK Mail!).

 

[Jinjin]

Ah balls..
The missus wants to come with me when I go to collect my gear in a few hours...
She wants to go “shopping”

Think I’ll leave her there

 

[flipshot]

The UK Mail tracking through the Parcel app gives more detail. Mine says Driver Acceptance Scan about 40 mins ago but not showing as out for delivery yet.

 

[Manatlt]

OHHH S**** FROM UKMAIL HEMEL HAMPSTEAD

Your parcel is due to be delivered on Friday 21st September 2018 between 10:26 and 11:26

They have changed since I last used them! So early! 😀

 

[Mikey86uk]

Yep, same here

Im going to remain optimistic and say will we be fine and get an update before 9am.

 

[CocoPops]

How long is the cue?

Normally about 1.5m?
