Does anyone know how long my phone will be preparing for dispatch? Its been like it since yesterday afternoon.

 

[That-Guy]

Mine is at my local depot but isn't out for delivery. Anybody else got this?

My depot is Tamworth.

Mine is on its way to the local depot still.

My regular driver doesn't leave the depot until after 9am so there is still hope!

When was your order changed the status to "Preparing for Dispatch" and what time you placed an order please?

 

[loladam]

I must admit I feel like a kid on a snow day waiting to hear their school is closed

 

[ggt]

Quite a few scalpers at covent garden. I might go to regent street instead

 

[Aidy06]

Anybody been to either of the Manchester stores this morning?

You mean a lot these people don't even understand the definition of a queue.

Seems unlikely but not impossible. I imagine the trucks transporting packages between depots will leave later in the day. Hope you get lucky. My phone is on its way but might still miss the day's delivery slots

Mine is also in Stansted still. Mine is still scheduled for delivery tomorrow, so I guess you are in the same boat. You are 1 hour from Stansted and so am I (in different directions), but I guess it needs to go to a UPS depot somewhere for local sorting

 

[pj-uk]

Ill let Anyone now the regent St stock as soon as someone comes out to tell us. Currenlty a handful of scalpers

Interesting, mine is coming near Bracknell and last logged as leaving castle donnington.

As yet it has not arrived at any depot closer and last seen at about 4:30 this morning.

[stu.h]

Just checked mine again, and status has changed to 'preparing for dispatch'.

Did you have expedited or standard delivery ? I can't see a reason other than that why some are coming out today and some tomorrow if they all arrived on the same day ?

weird stuff :/

Yes please. Nothing at CG unless the guy who told me was lying. But at this time yesterday there was a long queue of scalpers so I believe him when he said 40-60 had just left.

Mine is identical! At least we are moving again now

 

[ggt]

Yes and buy as many as possible. No stock at cov gard or regent st. This is a joke! Worst Apple launch ever

 

[pj-uk]

Might be the same guy at Regent st. Apparently other stock has come in but no iPhone 5S. Maybe tomorrow? At least I look eager turning up at work at 8am

 

[int79]

The plane from Hong Kong today that departed at 6:45, I thought the flight number was 5X001 but on flightradar24 I get no current flight?

 

[Mercenary]

Another Luton out for delivery here. Let's see who gets it first

I think now we are just dependent on UPS logistics network. Stoke is around the corner from the Castle Donnington hub. Once the package arrives at a hub, it'll just be put on the next van/truck to the local depot. Sometimes that means it will miss that day's deliveries. There's no reason why they'll keep back packages to meet a delivery estimate unless a client has requested it - which presumably happened on previous years, though even then some people received their phones the day before launch.
