Any other UPS deliveries only "ready for UPS"?

Yes and I'm in London

 

[steveza]

How old is your kid?

About half an iPad™

I'll use that for a bit

 

[FranksWildYears]

hang in there they will phone what time does your local store close ?

Got a phone call a minute ago informing me that they don't think they'll be able to fulfil the order. That is problematic given that I sold my current phone today.

They can redeem themselves by giving me the handset free of charge when they get stock, but otherwise I'll go elsewhere.

my syncreon (ukmail) order is at the depot, no more worrying

 

[lukefinch]

Delivered

CPW in-store pre-order placed on Monday. Ready for me to pick up from the shop tomorrow.

Mine still 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."

Hey, for those being delivered by Syncreon/UKMail, you can type in your reference number from apple on the ukmail website and you get basic details there. If you get your consignment number from ukmail once in, you can put it in the advanced tracker here http://www.business-post.com/scripts/wsisa.dll/ws_quickpod.html and get more in depth information.

Thanks! mine is showing "next day" so 21/9 for me.

The UKMail general track and trace says waiting for collection , here's hoping!

Couldn't get hold of an 02 Nano Sim either, my store is so small I doubt I'd get one, not to mention actually getting into town tomorrow. A very kind and generous person sent one to me today with a tracking number, and my nano sim should be here tomorrow. I love this board, so many great helpful kind people around.

 

[Grant7]

think you maybe correct, someone just asked the same question on twitter.

@OrangeHelpers If I don't receive a text by this evening to confirm iPhone delivery - does that mean, it DEFINITELY won't be here tomorrow?

No. we are also using Royal Mail SD to help with deliveries. ^Andy

I haven't checked my Twitter feed all day! Lol.

Well that's encouraging then, all my previous orders have been sent via Royal Mail SD, they were with O2 though, but at least it's a possibility.

Overall though, horrible effort from Orange

Anyone else's CPW home delivery via Yodel order still stuck in Lichfield? Mine been sat there since 9.26am yesterday (Wednesday). Always a groan when Amazon opt to use Yodel. I was hoping they might been under the proverbial cosh from CPW with the iPhone 5 rollout, but....

Nice, did you have to ring to get this? I've just been on the phone and they said mine is with the courier but they can't give tracking numbers.
