Mine hasn't either yet, it's saying its been in Shanghai for the past 30 hours? :(
 
Hi all,

All I can say is were in the same boat or should that be plane :-| So sorry for the bad joke I am trying to lighten the situation lol :-D

Eugene you may have a point I am a south-easter OK I know its not a word but hey I live 15 minutes from Bluewater... So tempted to get a 16GB iPhone 6+ today and could have as well :-| But I am going to wait for my iPhone 6+ 64GB as it has more space especially with 64-bit programs and also more space used for images and videos due to the improvements in camera.

Shame UPS do not deliver on Sundays eh :p

I have had a word with Tim Cook and he has given us a free holiday to South Korea! Hurrrayyyy lol XD

All we can do is laugh and be positive I am loving the community here and lets hope the S.Korean flight leaves shortly :)

All the Korea ppl. Where about are you in the UK? It might be that we are all in the southeast.
I'm just upset because I had to take a day off at work and now I have to work on Monday and I won't be able to stay at home to wait for the phone to arrive!
If you're not 100% sure that you will be delivering tomorrow, why would you send me an email saing so?

I've never had such a bad service from Apple! Out of this world!

On a pre-emptive basis, I should perhaps also offer an open apology to anyone who suffers with alcohol-related issues for my suggestion that "we Korea lot" should perhaps have a wee drink.

Again, I am personally more than passingly familiar... :)

I'll be all day in London Monday and Tuesday and no one will be home to accept the phone! If they didn't send the email I could have cover Monday's with today!
I don't care when the phone is delivered, but I would like to know. If I spend £1400 on 2 phones I think it's the least they can do!

It's not that bad dude lol....I did do the :D smiley to show you it was all light hearted.....just frustrated really.....doesn't help that my team Liverpool are losing too haha
 
Absolutely fuming!!!!!

Had a text yesterday guaranteeing delivery for today.

Absolutely nothing, so I went into carphone warehouse.

They did some digging, turns out although my order went through ok on pre-order day. It never went to picking, meaning I never had a phone assigned to me.

I'm now at the back of the list with the 13th October being dangled in front of me as a date to look forward too.

I'm really not happy, I have £45 credit on my account which I reckon I'll spend on an apple case or wait until they have the life-proof cases in. Also dropped a tongue in cheek comment about a free upgrade to a 128gb model and he said he would let me know if that was possible.

Really not happy!
 
UPS flights out of Incheon

A quick peak at the departures for Incheon shows 3 UPS flights in the next 24 hours. One at 11pm UK time one at 3am UK time and one at 6.30am UK time. The 11pm and 6.30am flights go to Anchorage and the 3am goes to Louisville.

Seems an odd route to me, as Anchorage to the UK has to be another 8 hours. I guess our phones must be on one of these flights unless there is an extra flight scheduled that we don't know about

Is there any departures for UPS from Shanghai where my phone is currently stuck?
 
Hello, Guys my replacement iphone on the way on the 15th Oct.
One question does this reset my 14 day return period. (Need to know quick)
If not I will return my iphone for a refund and rebuy.

2 left a little earlier, 1 to Shanghai and another to Shenzhen... hoping they're on those and about to carry on to Dubai/Almaty. So far no European orders sent by UPS have gone via the US.
 
Mine says its in transit, but also says it hasn't departed from Korea. :confused:
I read up somewhere that they scan it for it to show up on the tracking or something.

Edit: Oh silly me in transit means nothing lol

Driven from Nottingham to watford.

Same issue - no phone. However... There might be hope.

Hold the line callers!

so in the end I got a iPhone 6 plus from some emergency stash. He had to make it sellable before I could have it and I got 25 quid off and a free leather case. Also from another reservation I wasn't going to make anyway I got another £25 off so basically ended up 128 for 64 price!
 
Payment not taken

Just noticed something - the iPhone still hasn't been charged to my credit card?

Details: 6+ 128 ordered 12th Sept. Got the delivery moved forward to the 20th email and in the Korea group. I used an Amex card if that makes any difference.
 
Picked up my reservation 6+ today and glad I also got silicone case as well as leather as the silicone feels much more secure when holding it, I find the leather case a bit slippery to hold.

Every other year they take it when the phone is dispatched but I'm the same they still haven't taken anything from my account and mine is on its way for Monday delivery
 
I wish i'd never seen that email from Apple as my iphone 6+ 128gb SG is still stuck at Incheon Korea since 7:10 pm Eastern Time.

Was so excited since Apples email, went to bed really late (4:28am) but still "naturally" woke up at 6:40am checking on the UPS update but thought it was a glitch from UPS when it was still showing "Arrived - Incheon, Korea, Republic of, Friday, 09/19/2014"

The most annoying thing is out of all days, today people decide to ring my door bell. First it was the postman who couldn't find a number 17 (which don't exist), then my brother shows up at 11am to show off his new car, then my wife goes to the shop and forgets to take the keys, then the neighbours kid rings asking to throw his football over, then a builder looking for the owners of number 17 (maybe he's the guy that's going to build it) and only 30 mins ago some idiot blocks this guys car and wanted to know if it was me. YET NO UPS!!

I live in Coventry and I contract in Milton Keynes and i was hoping to have the phone with me in time for work but looks like ours will hopefully get delivered on Monday in which case i may have to bring my dead grandmother to life and give her a heart attack as an excuse to work from home on mon/tue!

Mines 10 to 17th October. People are getting theirs earlier though so there is hope :)

I'm hoping they get moved up by at least a week if the 29th Sept - 2nd Oct lot are coming this weekend. It seems like quite a few folk are cancelling Apple.com orders to reserve and pick up this weekend so hopefully that moves our orders up a bit too :)
