Realised there is a smallish chance that my office (where I am getting the phone delivered) may be closed on Friday, a fact I overlooked in the excitement to pre-order (and since it was 2am and I woke up for it whilst on holiday in the USA). Anyone recall if Apple allows deliver address to be changed up to the point it dispatches should I need to change it?

Or, if worse comes to worse, if the carrier would allow a change to the delivery if needed?

I highly doubt you will be able to change the address. Think the best you would be able to do is get whoever is delivering it to keep it at their distribution centre and then pick it up from there.

If it comes through UPS you might be able to get them to deliver to somewhere else like a store or maybe a different address but I'm not sure, I would try speaking to Apple and see what they can do.
 
If you havent pre-ordered or reserved for pick-up in store, how long usually are the phones readily available to buy in stores? It looks like the pre-order for collection is closed, I dragged my heels way too long :rolleyes:
 
I had a dispatch email for my leather case on Thursday from Apple but still not received it?

I've seen comments from others here that said new pre-orders are opening up on the 26th, allegedly for the same day pick-up.

They get sent via regular mail and mine went missing, was supposed to arrive last Tuesday... did not turn up... Apple sent me out a replacement that arrived on Thursday.

The original one was apparently delivered on the Tuesday ... god knows where it was delivered... not here or my neighbours.

So i would give it another day or two
 
Just noticed - Apple have now stopped taking reservations to pre-order in store:

"You can visit an Apple Retail Store beginning at 8:00 a.m. on September 25 or shop online now. Reservations will reopen at 6:00 a.m. on September 26."
