Interesting, I phoned apple and they say my delay has nothing to do with them
and I am at the mercy of the carrier!!! Saying that he also blamed customs
during the same phone call?? Spent a lot of money with apple over the years
and between this and the iPad launch I have been treated like a second class
Customer
Mine is actually at the delivery location, a quick google of the guy who scanned my iPhone in: 35 year old, has kids, lives not too far from me...
Experienced as much from previous launches. But I don't recall missing one, so holding out hope...
I'm the same, not happy! They treat us like second class citizens here. I bet it's coming from Cork too!

Ordered through cpw on Wednesday afternoon, over the phone. Just received my dispatched email, nothing live yet but hope it gets to Aberdeen by 5am and I should receive my phone 
6:02am for me... I can hope
Turns out it might actually be 8am they start. Also if your close to the depot apparently you are not in luck since they apparently drive all the way to the end of the route and deliver on the way back, so you end up last.
I think this is just the last holding warehouse before the final delivery vans pick them up for tomorrows delivery. So close now!
uk Mail are shipping mine and some iPhones by premier 24 service which is next day delivery before 12mid day which will be good
Anxiously cmd+R'ing until I see that DPD has started the journey down the M40 towards London...

Walsh Western is actually just Syncreon, it means it has not even left yet, they are based in Newport/Wales.
www.walshwestern.com - Notice it just redirects to Syncreon?
Does anyone know if any stores besides Apple will be stocking SIM-Free iPhone 5s? Nottingham is still sadly lacking one and I missed pre-orders while travelling
You will only be able to buy sim free from Apple

Mine is Prem24 by UkMail
----------
Yup
Syncreon is the middle man, UKMail pick up the packages from Syncreon and they go out for delivery
Ne, I'm not at my Mac.
That's quite astonishingly creepy.
I even have most of his address. It's is utter failure if privacy, damned Echo.

Oh wow Mine is prem24 too, but it is still in Cardiff, Did not realise that was before 12 midday.
We will see, going to take them at least 6 hours to even get to my local depot never mind deliver it..
Yours is probably not in Cardiff. If you are looking at the main UKMail webpage you are looking at the wrong one. Mine hasn't update on that webpage either.
You need to go here: put your Consignment Number from the main UKMail webpage, into the box and you should get an update.
