Yep. Always the same day. They will do a change of delivery and 7 or 8 am I am good to go. It comes to the main center in my town which is about 10 min form my house. No extra cost and never been delayed
Just don’t show up right when they open, I did that a couple years ago and the one person working the counter wasn’t expecting a line of 20-25 people and I stood in line for a long time.
thanks so much super scared and scarred from UPS past disasters, but I did it so we will see!!!! so excited. It dropped off of mychoice bc it is not scheduled to come to my house anymore. worst case monday
Awesome. Now if Verizon will switch my from processing to shipped I’d be happy lol
i heard those are shipping really quickly? you didnt use apple.com/apple store app
Nope. Used the Verizon website. I got on there quicker than the Verizon app
Longest you requested the CC you'll be fine. However if you have it delivered at any normal store thats when it gets delay a business day. I've always had my iPhones get held at the CC. I'm normally there 20 before they open so I can be the first one out of there

Anybody know if the signature release program through MyChoice works for iPhone deliveries? I'm not sure I want to divert it to the CC because I have to work from 8-7 that day, and the CC is only open from 9:30-10:30 and 4:30-6:30 unfortunately, and I cannot be sure I'll get lunch break during those times as I'm sure my Friday will be very busy.
I live out in the country, however, and so I'm not worried about someone swiping my phone if it's just left without a signature.

Apple will have a signature release form u can print. And post on ur front door. Once it’s “shipped” on Apple.com
Everyone here is talking about UPS. I preordered from AT&T and they use Fedex with no signature required. But can you hold at Fedex locations as well to be picked up in the morning?
Good question... My city has two and I don’t want to accidentally pick the one that it wasn’t already aiming for by mistake and cause a delay while they transfer it to hold at the other CC
My UPS guy is my area will not deliver it with that release form. He always says the same thing, that before the trucks leave in my area. They tell them for the iPhones, do not leave them behind without an adult signature. No exceptions. So it depends on your area I guess.
So pro tip. I just looked at past packages hat have been delivered to me via ups. There are two hubs where I live. Some of my packages go through HUB ABC and it says arrival scan but then those always go to HUB XYZ and they say destination scan. So I’m going with XYZ.

I also just called again. They must think I’m a psycho. She said Friday delivery as long as everything with customs is normal.
Not to my knowledge. Still need a valid photo ID of the person's name who's listed on the package.
How can you tell which Hub it is though? Mine don’t name the Hub or Hub address, it just says my city and Destination Scan. There’s two hubs in this city so how would I check which one?
