UK iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus Thread

epicdrunk-gamer said:
Is there anyone for whom UPS still shows the below:

A UPS shipping label has been created. Once the shipment arrives at our facility, the tracking status--including the scheduled delivery date--will be updated.

For me its still showing the above..... nothing more than the label yet, :eek:

Like I've said above quoting your previous post, mines the same :)

Does your order status on Apple say UK Mail or Syncreon? Mine says Syncreon but I always thought they were just the people who delivered them to the delivery companies, eg. UPS

It says Syncreon but I was able to track it with my tracking number and postcode on UKMail's site :)

Anyone managed to figure out syncreon yet?

On the Syncreon site use the Delivery Number off the Apple Order Status page in the "Order No/Delivery No" field and the Order Number off the PDF invoice (mine begins with W) in the "Web Order No".

My 64GB Space Grey 6 is in Hinkley, with an estimated delivery date of tomorrow as scheduled.

Hey - same here actually, mine is also getting delivered to my workplace (i imagine quite a few people's are!), but the office will be closed until around 8am, does anyone knows what happens if delivery happens before then?! I may have to head to the office ultra early and wait around!

Delivery companies are normally quite sensible about this i.e. they deliver during work hours for office/business addresses.
 
:( mine still showing "Preparing for Dispatch " since yesterday.

Preparing for Dispatch
7- 10 business days Delivery: 30 Sep, 2014 - 03 Oct, 2014 by Standard Shipping
 
Syncreon tracking shows that the phone arrived at Birmingham Terminal from Hinckley today at 11am, however the phone location is still listed as Hinkley

Tamworth is more than a local delivery hub, as mine is Croydon but they're all showing at Tamworth atm

Correct, Tamworth is the closest UPS depot to East Midlands Airport where UPS flights land and importantly in this case it is the closest depot to Syncreon who handle all the pre-order stuff.
 
I actually wouldn't be surprised if people got extremely early deliveries tomorrow. I imagine the drivers are going to have such a busy day and will be starting very early to get through the workload
 
Ee

Still no further info from EE. Will go to store tomorrow and if no phone I will end my contract and buy SIM free from Apple. Should have done that in the first place.:mad::mad::mad:

Ah ok cool. Can't wait for tomorrow!
I live literally 5 minutes away from my local UKMail depot as well.

There's an option to collect it from the depot (got my case via UKMail and the option to do so showed up before it went out for delivery) so you might be able to get it early if you pick it up instead.

You'll probably be one of the first deliveries though so might not be worth it. :p

Mine has been saying "preparing for shipment" for some time now. I presumed that it would be in a UK warehouse waiting to be picked up by carrier with that status changing earlier this week - perhaps for tomorrow despite the 30th September - 3rd October estimate... but alas no...

Ordered iPhone 6+ 128GB at 08:41 on 12/09/2014

Current Apple status:
Preparing for Shipment Available to ship: 7- 10 business days
Delivers: 30 Sep, 2014 - 03 Oct, 2014 by Standard Shipping

No change for a few days.

However on the off chance, I tracked on the UPS website using my Web Order number beginning with W and to my surprise can see it is actually coming from China. It is still over there now so doubt I will get it tomorrow was wishful thinking, but is looking like it will be Monday 22nd which is not so bad.

Found mine too. Saying the same as yours ##
 
Hey,

I've been following this thread since post number 1, but I've got a question of my own:

To those of you selling their iPhone 5s, who are you selling it to? And where is the best place to sell it to so I get a maximum return?

My 16GB iPhone 6 is being delivered by UPS tomorrow, ordered at 09.05 via the app on Friday morning and I got my dispatch notification at 19.57 last night. It is now showing 'In Transit' by the UPS app and the phone is in Tamworth - so down the road from me :cool: (Just in case anyone wondered what the hell is happening with their phone etc)

As many people have said, tomorrow is the one day (maybe also when iPads launch) where courier drivers would be dreading it. I'd say they have all been briefed about the deliveries and that they must get all of their shipments done on the day. If I were a courier driver, I'd try to leave as early as possible (even 5 in the morning) to start shipping them out. That gives me more chance of getting them done during the long day and perhaps finishing in time for a decent Friday night.

Having said that, I am quite sure that there is a law on how many hours a courier driver can drive per day and each van even has a meter that checks how long someone has been driving too. I think it's 8 hours of driving per day.

We're more advanced than some.....i wouldn't expect anything new till maybe mid next week....if we are lucky we may get them next friday.....but i won't count my chickens......i'm just gonna assume it will be the selected dates, and if it comes next week then it's a bonus!

My dad is a professional delivery driver and he can work 15 hours straight with only 2 hour sleeping breaks. So I am assuming UPS and UKmail will have extra vans and delivery drivers about tomorrow morning.
 
So UKmail ****ed up my order.

Love it.

Or at least that's what Apple are telling me.

Apple tell me they flagged change of address which UKmail ignored, UKmail are claiming Apple never told them about it. So basically I'm stuck in between two companies, with one who is trying to absolve all responsibility. My money is with UKmail really considering when I call up Apple each agent has said they have the request on their system, yet UKmail claim they have nothing.
