FYI my pick up in store just changed to "processing"....:)


I checked mine this morning and itā€™s changed to processing. Itā€™s gonna be a long week of waiting šŸ˜‚. I am taking a half day from work Friday to pick my phone at 1:45pm EST. Hoping the line in store wonā€™t be a mess like it was for the 11 pro max in 2019.

So many stupid little bugs and glitches. Apple is working on it and fixing it. Just takes time. I honestly think even Apple gets worried and scared when they open up the Pre-Orders portal. They don't know whats going to happen.
Very funny. You make it sound as if Apple is updating you on the bugs and what they are doing to fix it

Still havenā€™t gotten the loan email from Citzens. First time it didnā€™t come it an hour or two. Ordered at 7:02 am CST yesterday and had the interest charge show up on my card.

āœ‰ļø Once again, you are cordially invited šŸ“Ø
Greetings all,

Apple just announced the new iPhone 14 line up and the Apple Event Fall Out is over.

Welcome again! I hope all of you beautiful people are doing well. Itā€™s almost that time of the year again. Itā€™s time to place your orders for the new iPhone 14 this coming Friday. Hopefully you are ready for the madness to begin. I hope all of you have your passports ready and your mindset well prepared to start traveling internationally. The traveling restrictions have eased up so hopefully, our tracking journey will be smoother this time. Fingers are crossed and hopefully, there won't be any hick-ups with the international traveling.

The iPhone 14 Movement...

Once our orders move to process we should start seeing some movement to 'Preparing For Shipment' over the weekend. This usually happens Saturday evening or Sunday afternoon (PST time).

Once this happens you should be able to get details on your phone and let the tracking begin!

Here are some notes to help track orders:

If your phone status has changed to "Shipped", you can view the invoice on the Apple site.

That invoice has the serial number on it.

Go to Apple.com, then pick the ORDERS page (the little "shopping bag" icon at the far right on the home page... go to your orders page). Now, login, find your iPhone order... and click on Print All Invoices to see your shiny new iPhone serial number.

Link to track your iPhone via UPS:

https://www.ups.com/track?loc=en_US&requester=ST/

Tracking | UPS - United States

Track one or multiple packages with UPS Tracking, use your tracking number to track the status of your package.
www.ups.com

Detailed Tracking

Another way to find it, enter your phone number + zip:

Track your UPS shipments here using your reference number

If your phone number isnā€™t working for UPS tracking, use your order number but subtract the last two numbers/letters. For example: Say your order number is: W123456789, you'd put in: W1234567 - make sure to use the tracking by reference feature

When you see the time that your flight leaves China (make sure that the UPS or FedEx info is showing it per China time, or do the math), you can usually narrow it down

For those of you that are not familiar with doing this here's how you can check your order.

Go to UPS's website. Go to tracking. Go to track by reference number. Put the cell phone number associated with your order as the reference number. Put your ZIP Code. Put your country. Hit the track package button. If your phone has shipped it'll come up on UPS's website.

Our Main Goal is to hit the "Import Scan" from Louisville Kentucky. This is our last stopping point before we will say our final goodbyes until we all meet again next September 2023.

The story behind the famous "Import Scan" UPS: Long story short, This is a final approval scan that dictates your iPhone will arrive the next day, guaranteed!

According to UPS, The shipment has cleared import procedures in the receiving country.


Be Aware: Common Scans Include The Following:

Example: What our Tracking May Look Like?

This tracking below only applies to Las Vegas, Nevada. However, we will all be traveling together from (Zhengzhou, China to Lousiville, Kentucky, USA) until we see the "Import Scan" in Louisville, Kentucky. Keep in mind some of us may be left behind in China. It happens every year. (It happened to be last year and the year before). Hopefully, this won't be the case this year. After all, goes well, we will be separated to our final destination, and from there expect a final "Departure Scan" to hit your destination airport.

For those of us showing postal service delivery. This might be an option under My Choice, to have it upgraded to a UPS delivery.
