Order about 9am on first day. My status was 'Processing Items' last time i checked last night. First thing this morning and it was saying 'Preparing for Shipment' and it still says the same.

Just checked UPS and it says the following "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."

Fingers crossed 32gb of white awesomeness will be with me tomorrow.

Check my post a few up, according to UPS it will be.
 
Good news everybody!

Note: I'm in Glasgow, ordered the 16GB White direct from Apple on Oct 7 around 9am

My chat with UPS said it will be delivered tomorrow even though my status still says

Just registered to post that Apple are still moving orders to shipped

iphone 4s white 32gb
ordered friday 7th at 9.30 moved to shipped about 25 mins ago
just got email coinfirmation 5 mins ago

I'm in NIreland also so hopefully shipment tomorrow
 
I know it's easy to say it, but I honestly wouldn't worry what your status says until up to midnight tonight.

For example, my Apple status only changed from 'processing' this morning and didn't change to 'shipped' till late on this afternoon, but now it's tracking I can see that UPS actually received the courier order at 0855 this morning.

At the end of the day, if you ordered from Apple on 7th, the chances are you'll get your 4S tomorrow irrespective of whatever status Apple, UPS or TNT currently say. It's EXACTLY the same as this every Apple launch!
 
HALLELUJAH!!!!!!!

Some progress...AT LAST! I put my Apple Ref number (starting W) into UPS and it says "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."

White 32GB here! Just so happy that there is some progress now, even if it doesn't arrive tomorrow :eek:
 
Yay, checked on UPS - a shipping label has been created

Looking good, no update on Apple.com though
 
Just checked UPS and it's recognised now. Still no delivery date though.

Those white 32GB's are getting their hustle on! :D I'm not bothered about Apples site anymore because they take forever to update (will prob get my iPhone before they update it). I'm just sticking to refreshing UPS now :eek:
 
Hi guys,

Am new to this forum but have been following this thread for last 24 hours...

I have managed to get somewhere in tracking my order and thought I would share with you all.

I rang Syncreon on 00 353 61 443 642 (Ireland) and they checked my order and told me that it is being shipped by UK Mail. I have been on UK Mail website and my details work, informing me that I will receive delivery tomorrow.

Syncreon advised me that Apple orders will not show on their tracking page as it is optimised for Dell orders only.

I rang UK Mail to find out what happens if I miss delivery and they advised, as did Syncreon, that they MUST attempt first delivery, however they can leave with neighbour or arrange collection from depot after first delivery.

Hope this answers some of your questions and puts some of you at ease.

Enjoy the iP4S...

...I'm gonna!!
Thanks... Managed to find out that UK MAIL are delivering mine! It has been collected and is waiting for 'Out for Delivery' status in the morning! :D

This makes me VERY happy!

I have actually JUST checked the UPS website again and although the apple site STILL states preparing for shipping i now have


Scheduled Delivery:
Friday, 14/10/2011, By End of Day
Last Location:
Tamworth, United Kingdom, Thursday, 13/10/2011
 
Thats weird, I and others can get my syncreon details when I go to the SYNVIEW 360 Tracker.

Also what details are you using for UKMail - I tried all combinations of the 2 numbers and apple W12345678 number and non work

If you go to your Apple account. Click on track your shipment and it will show you your tracking number. Use that as a reference number on UK Mail.
 
Is it fair to say that if your CC hasn't been charged, your order hasn't been shipped?
Nothing's been charged to the CC yet and the order status is still Preparing for Shipment.

I know that the order status can be out of date (as per the 2000+ posts on the subject!), but wondered about the CC transaction.
(Although I suppose that as with the apple store status, it depends when these things get added/updated!).

It´s about time!
 
Just got my delivery email.

Just got my delivery email. Delivery estimate tomorrow. Hope everyone else's follows swiftly...
 
Hello!

Complete newbie here, but having been an avid lurker for the past couple of days I had to check-in and say Hi.

I ordered two 32GB 4S's (one white, one black) last Friday, direct from the Apple site. Confirmation email sent 11:30AM. (I'm right on the Beds/Bucks/Herts borders, FWIW.)

Was ecstatic last night when my status moved from 'Processing Items' to 'Preparing for shipment'. Am less ecstatic at 16:45 when it hasn't changed to 'Shipped' yet. But it seems that, on balance of opinion, my chances of getting my new toys tomorrow are still 50:50.

Nice to know that plenty of others are in the same boat...

Cheers
 
Absolute torture this is. :D Ive been constantly checking the damn account section on the Apple site since i got up this morning.

Im still Preparing for Shipment. Cant remember exactly what time i managed to get my order placed, but i got my order confirmation email at exactly 9:20am on the 7th. :rolleyes:
 
Anybody know if i can call UPS, and get them to hold it? The nearest one is Dundee and i am going there tomorrow anyway.
