DPD. They are great and always accurate. If you track your delivery online it shows you where the guy is on the map!
DPD? They also have GPS tracking on their van. You can log onto their tracking system and it will show where the van is on the map, his delivery number he is currently on and your delivery number.
Fantastic courier IMO, it's a shame Amazon Prime rarely use them anymore as they have set up their own awful courier company to save costs.
That's the one guys. Was fantastic. Would apple us dpd?

Ya, DPD is great, I used them when ordering from Scan... they only use those to do their deliveries.
They don't unfortunately. UPS are really good in terms of getting the job done but Apple don't pay for their best service which would provide hourly windows. DPD do it as standard and also give you options to set safe places (on certain packages if the seller allows it of course) and delivery to a certain neighbour. That german efficiency!
At least they don't use Yodel..
I heard back when on the iPhone 5 pre-orders, some people get theirs by Yodel and the complains were endless, although I was not sure if those were ordered from Apple or Carrier... any idea?
I could imagine the meltdown stories on Macrumors if they did. "Yodel threw my iPhone 6 over a 12 foot fence in the torrential rain"
or
"Yodel left my iPhone 6 in a 'safe place'; the bin, on bin collection date!"
This. Every single delivery has had me sitting around and waiting. The fact our doorbell is temperamental only makes me more concerned. Oh well, I've I've got a few books to read while I do so. Hopefully we both do strike it lucky and get a morning delivery. *touches wood*
I know! Since the phones were announced they've said coming soon! I'm only interested in O2 but would have been nice for even one of the networks to 'go first' - at least it would have given us a good idea!
Are they all that scared to put the tariffs live?! Is there THAT much money at stake?
Guess there must be!
I think my 5 from three came via DPD, it was here at something silly like 7.55am on launch day :-D
My 5 was ups. I'm considering preordering for store pick up but have never done that before. Any one else done it and if so is it a smooth method.
When people have preordered before, has everyone received early? I'm thinking of using my Mums work address but no one will be there until 9 and I've seen some people have received really early
I just have an interest in replacing "5s" from a URL with a "6" and seeing what happens
