Apple have used both UK Mail and UPS for launch day deliveries for a few years now.

Last year was UK Mail for me, and before has been UPS. I believe due to volumes they have had to diversify for a while! Don't worry, either carrier, it will 99.9% be there tomorrow.

I had UPS last and they delivered at something like 8:10am, what time did ukmail deliver for you?
 
Chat to Vodafone and I'm getting mine tomorrow.

Pretty impressive considering I upgraded Tuesday evening!
 
Do any of the carrier services actually give you a timed delivery?? If not then what's the point in tracking it?? Just sit back relax....do something interesting and wait for Friday to come along, stop panicking cos it will arrive tomorrow!!

OI! There is no room for rational thinking in here!
 
Does anyone know if UKMail does GPS tracking when they start their deliveries?

This is the first time I am getting my stuff off UKMail/Syncreon
 
...just checked My O2 (as I pre-ordered over the phone with O2) and I now have a Parcel number and the courier is listed as UK Mail. Weirdly, the dispatch date shows 16th September (2 days ago!!)???


The tracking number also brings up no results on UK Mail's website (I guess because the phone is still sitting in an O2 warehouse somewhere)?!
 
The sods said because I set up the contract in store there is no cooling period! So I'm now paying £4 more for less minutes a day after I set it up.

I did mine in store too, so thats a crap answer from them. I think you just need to pay a little bit more and not less so its technically an upgrade.
 
Incredible to think EE are cutting things so fine.

Apparently DPD may not send notifications for delivery tomorrow until around 6pm.

So, if like me, you need to be at home to accept the delivery, you can't arrange anything until this evening.

I've had to arrange to work from home tomorrow 'just in case' - and considering they are quoting delivery anytime within 21 days, with a notification the day before, there are going to be A LOT of missed deliveries.
