what are the odds a hold at ups location request change will still get delivered on the 19th? My driver wont leave it without a signature and wouldnt accept the paper form last year
I’ve tried it before, get a location in your delivery area and I believe it won’t change the delivery date. Usually they deliver to the UPS stores before the residential customers.
 
Odd. Mine went to preparing to ship yesterday and now went back to processing. Still has a delivery date for Friday. Can’t wait for Friday!
My order did this too! I was beginning to think that there is something wrong with my order. I tried to chat with Apple order support yesterday evening but their chat disconnected me saying that there was too high of a volume and to try again later. I might do that if I don't see any movement today.

Yes, if you put the request in before it gets loaded onto the truck.

Timing is super important so make sure you do this as the scan is made when it's at your distribution center, not after it gets sorted and loaded in the morning of.

Depending on which UPS access point you choose, the truck that gets loaded may differ from the one yours normally gets on.

I have lots of UPS packages that need signatures so if I want delivered to different UPS Access points so that I can pick up at my leisure - either near work or near home.

$5.99 for those on the basic UPS My Choice app....
 
1TB Blue Air “Prepared for shipment” for last few days and had MyChoice UPS tracking.

512GB Blue Air order few minutes after still stuck at “Your order will be available soon” without any tracking.

Both still says delivers on September 19.
 
Without a tracking number, who knows what Apple uses. They might use Ontrac, which is never ontime.
Do you have a 9/19 date? I know in the US, Apple uses UPS. Not familiar with "Ontrac"

Been on this board a LONG time. Majority of time, you'll get it on the day Apple says. Clearly nothing is 100% because there are things outside of Apple's control. If you have a 9/19 date from Apple, and I was a betting man, I would bet everything you get it 9/19. Odds/percentages are in your favor. If for an odd reason it doesn't arrive, you might have to wait an extra day. In grand scheme of things, not a biggie.

Hoping to do it as soon as it scans into the UPS system. Assuming you work there? How do those changes get flagged? When they get scanned to load on the truck?
