Weird. I got the text saying that it wasn't due until Monday, but I've just tracked it and it shows this:

Onto Delivery Van Scan

Note the last line, onto delivery can scan. Anyone else get this?


That's what I have for UK Mail and mine is officially showing "Out for delivery"

Onto Delivery Van Scan

Yes, lots of trouble. Lady on the phone tried to tell me that 4G was rubbish, I wouldn't get a phone for 3 months and that 4G was starting in Birmingham only. Took about 20 minutes, I was just polite and persistent and in the end they just gave up the spiel.

Minor heart attack as my door just got hammered on...Amazon parcel with Borderlands 2!

Other half got a text from Orange saying hers will be here today. Sigh.

My borderlands came yesterday and I missed it so I need to wait until tomorrow :(
 
Good idea ... Think I'll do the same ...

If its UK Mail it will not be held. Note on the website said cannot be collected from the depot. They will attempt today and then again tomorrow. After that time I would imagine you can collect.

I think its to stop a massive amount of people all going to the depot's. Gives them a chance to clear some of the phones out.
 
Arrived! Ordered from T-Mobile, delivered by UK Mail. Guy said the Norwich depot have 500 to deliver today
 
Have you tried the business mail site instead?

Mine didn't track for ages then last night about 11pm it showed on there. I think you might find because so many people are trying it that it probably has gone down.

Don't bother with Syncreons site though - Won't be any help whatsoever.

I'm in the same boat :( Apple's website says out for delivery. Syncrecon says its still in Hinkley and UKMail and Business Post don't recognise the tracking number (starting with 8).

Really confused :confused:
 
Just got my text from Orange :) should arrive today.

Better late than never I suppose lol.

Hopefully may give hope to others who haven't received texts yet.

Yeah tried that and I get this...

So on the phone right now to orange.. i upgraded at 10am on the friday.. no order number nothing.... they have now spun some bull how no phones have been dispatched today.. and if i hear that primmadonna girl song 1 more time on hold im going screeeeaaammmm!!
 
Trying to get hold of one in store at TMobile. Been told there is a batch *somewhere* and they'll give me a ring soon to see if there are any left after pre-orders.
 
Quick question. If I was to walk into one of the Apple stores in London late next week, would I stand any chance of getting an iPhone, or will it still be out of stock? I know online deliveries are 3-4 weeks but wasn't sure about in-store once todays big rush is gone.
 
Weirdly, our Orange order - including the text - has Monday as the delivery date, yet the tracking number reveals that it's out for delivery today. I did phone and the customer service advisor told me that it's on the van. I don't know, I'll believe it if it arrives. I can see it being 'out for delivery' but because it's not expected for today getting low priority and ultimately left until Monday.

Yeah Orange are full of it.. im talking to them right now and they are adamant no phones have been dispatched today...!!
 
Mine is still not out for delivery. Was scanned in at local depot at 6.30am though.

I was just on the phone to Carphone Warehouse regarding returning my black handset for a white one if it scuffs and he was saying if I put my sim card in yada yada. If it is a common fault and they acknowledge it however, this may change. Had it come early I would have taken a stroll to the CW this morning to check out the white and see if it's worth the swap.
