Is it worrying that on Syncreon it still says its in Hinckley and has done since 11am? Nothing else. How will I know what courier is actually delivering it? Ugh, sometimes ignorance is bliss!

UK Mail is delivering it. Go to their webpage put in the Reference Number Box your Tracking Number from Apple.

https://www.ukmail.com

Should see an update on your order.
 
when the iPhone 4 came out 2 years ago i went to my local O2 store and queued to upgrade as my contract was due for renewal.
i got there at 6am and was 48th in the queue.
i believe we queued until 8am or 8:30 but the nice people in the O2 shop came down the line at 7:00 with a basket of pastries and cartons of apple juice.

I went to a remote o2 store when the iPhone 4 came out. Got there around 2am, nobody there. By the time the store opened at 8am, there were 50+ people in the line. Felt good to be first in the queue!

Syncreon from my own past experience aren't the best at tracking I remember I had that my product was in birmingham even up to the time the driver knocked on my door.

Ugh, sometimes ignorance is bliss!
I ordered direct through the Apple Store
you should be an orange upgrader we are in the dark about everything to do with our upgrades
 
After a bit of persistence the agent magically found my tracking number and it shows my phone in birmingham at 2pm today

so are nearly half of all the phones for people that ordered via O2 as far as i can tell (other half are shipping via ukmail it seems). i wonder if DPD are delivering anything else but iPhone5s tomorrow :D hope the roads around birmingham stay clear tomorrow morning!
 
And if it says 'Awaiting collection'? Is it time to worry?

Nope far as I can tell, they are scanning them all at their new locations.

My friend phoned UK Mail and he told me early on that the shipments were being moved to locations/areas today.

Yours should update soon. I wouldn't worry. Keep hitting the refresh button!
 
Dont worry, mine says that aswell but go to the link below and enter your consignment number and it will tell you where it actually is, mine is at my local depot ready for delivery

Ah thanks mate, i've been checking that as well. Says it's at least collected, i'm just clinging to shreds of hope on each of the various ways of tracking it (apple site, syncreon site, main UKMail site, and that one). Oh man i think i've lost it.

Don't worry I was there 5 hours ago. Obsessively trying out every single method of tracking. It's midnight now, and I am about to give up and go to bed, because I know I have to be up 6am, but I didn't want to go to sleep early and miss the confirmation status.
 
mine's being delivered to work which will lead to the inevitable crowd around my desk and everyone wanting to hold it and questions, all of them with questions, but they've come to expect it off me now, i'm the office Machead.
 
I've just checked my tracking by both online and SMS ... it says it's in Castle Donnington ... not sure if that means it's on it's way but it still says 24th ... rather disappointed ...

I think it's possible they could come tomorrow but I'll be so disappointed in whoever it is, Apple or UPS, if us here don't get ours tomorrow for some strange reason ....

My first iPhone, been loving the experience, seeing the date come up as release date etc and then hit with that change earlier today :(

Ah well, guess I can only sit back and wait :(

I can't see them leaving castle donnington now. They will be kicked around their warehouse over the weekend then thrown onto a flight on Sunday evening.

Thanks a lot apple, UPS or whoever.
