Well my pending charge just went away off my account today. Apple says preparing to ship, and my UPS says its had some movement. Hope that means its going to charge my account and theirs not any issues or anything 🙁
Got a tip for us?

Both of my X's appeared on UPS. So happy my 10-17 Nov dates were pushed to November 3rd delivery.
Excited for the iPhone X!

I see many people get worried about charges being removed or what not. It is perfectly normal for this to happen. They won't really charge you until it ships. The first charge is a hold to basically see that they could charge you with the card given before anything else can happen. I wouldn't worry too much.

Use your phone number as a reference number is the easiest, first 8 letters and numbers of your order number is another reference number.But not a tracking number, rather a reference number. Use this page where it says reference number

Just found the tracking info in my UPS My Choice. Still no tracking confirmation from Apple. Is it OK that I just went ahead and scheduled it for pickup from a UPS customer center, even though I still have no tracking confirmation from Apple?

My pending charge has disappeared off of my account as well but no change in order status. It flipped yesterday but then flipped back. In a holding pattern now. No sign of it on UPS.

All I see is ups stores in my area. I changed it to the closest ups store I hope that won’t change by delivery date. I have a few doctors appointments the 3rd I have to go to. I don’t want to miss the delivery. Will shipping it to a ups store delay shipment?

I believe shipping it to a UPS store could add a day to the delivery, depending on when the truck gets there.

LOVE the name of this thread, but will it stop the highly critical from building their nests her? . . . . nah 🙂
For the record, yes I have a tracking number but that is no indication that it has actually ships. When the charge appears (not the pending state) on my card . . . I'll have "lift off".

This is no guarantee that it will work for you but . . . you select track by reference number then enter either the phone number associated with the order or the order number. That's how I found my tracking number.

I do that all the time. It doesn’t add any time...in fact it’s ready early in the morning at UPS so you don’t have to wait all day for your shipment. Been doing it that way for years.

Really sorry to hear that, your iphone will load Down on the pallet. All the other ones will be on top of yours. The additional weight will kill the screen and iphone. But its okay there’s always another time.

I did the same and noticed that as well. However under the premium plan description I’m reasonably sure that I read that you get 2 no cost opportunities to select the time window. After that they charge a fee. I’ll go back and look again before calling UPS about it.
Update - found it, here it is:
**Premium members receive two free confirmed 2-hour delivery window requests annually. An $8 fee is charged for each additional request. Members are charged an $8 fee for each confirmed 2-hour delivery window request.

Yes, you are correct about the two at no cost. FYI, I signed up for the premium promo $4 for 4 months.
In the My Choice Delivery Planner, Shipment Actions, “?” It says “select 2-hour delivery window: when available, choose select to request a confirmed delivery window or change to update confirmed delivery window settings.” I hope this option eventually becomes available.

Thanks! I’ll check back later, closer to delivery, for that option. I figured as much 🙂
