Whats your Apple TV delivery date?

Same for me (UK, ordered as soon as it was available), but changed to 27th rather than 28th. No range or anything and considering amazon and others are saying 27th, I'm resigned to that now.
Not UK, but same thing over here in The Netherlands. Ordered a minute after being available, original mail stated May 21st-May 28th. Apple Store app now says May 28th.
I wouldn’t worry too much yet, the last few orders I’ve made with Apple that had delays the app always showed an order status with the latest date and it has always arrived earlier. My AirTag holder said May 10th but arrived the next day on the 4th. I think they show the latest date so they can under deliver and keep people pleased with the service. If your email says the 21st - 27th or 28th you’ve got a good chance of getting it around the 21st, unless you ordered later in the day.
It does appear that Apple gave everyone outside of the US later dates. What their rationale was for that is anyone's guess. Maybe the ATV order volume is so low that all of the worldwide orders for ATV's will get sorted for distribution in the US first? Anyone's guess.
With all of the IPP orders, you'd think these would be lumped in with those flights.

Same for me in the Netherlands. Ordered within the first minute, 21-28 May moved to 28 May and hasn't moved since. Ridiculous honestly.
Ordered within two minutes of it going live, mine said 21st-27th straight away but very quickly changed to the 27th.
Considering there are reports that it's going to be in stores on the 21st, I'm pretty annoyed that pre-orders are shipping for the 27th. It's still showing as processing and I've not been charged so I'll be very surprised if it arrives on Friday.
This is in the UK.

Yep, I think there's a lot of us that will be checking our local stores for stock on Friday. (and then cancelling our pre-orders...if we can...or returning them if we can't).
I ordered mine in the first few minutes as well. It was charged to my card Sunday and has been "preparing for shipment" for almost 2 days now. Date has always said May 21-May 27. I'm in the US.
Hi All in the UK, I’ve just been charged for my Apple TV, still says delivers 27th and processing, but they’ve only just taken the money. Hopefully other brits will start to see movement.
I have also been charged! There is hope! Perhaps these are already in the country for us and are not shipped directly from China.
Woo! Yeah that could be the case, either way Apple have really had us on edge this week lol. I'd just about given up when I got the charge notification. Fingers crossed they ship in time for Friday.
Same here. The payment is showing up on my credit card, but on the Apple Store it’s still showing as will be delivered on 27 April. The sooner the better.
