UKMail aren't bad either. They also give you a delivery window and you can see where you are in the queue and get a text when you're next.

DPD are the gold standard though :)

Wish that site would come back up though!
UK mail are very quick for a reason. Know how they operate and the drivers don't hang about thats for sure.

In the U.K., delivery date of 19th, still not received shipping email. Guessing it will come through once their website is up and running again.

My order email said delivery 19th Dec and took a days holiday to ensure I didn't miss it. But have not received anything since, can you use the order ref to track ???

Hi Sheza, how big was the discount? I was one of the people who missed out on it.

Hey, student discount was around 10% so got them for £142.80. You didn't miss out too much.

UK Mail for me too. Does anyone know if they give one hour delivery slots on the day? I need to be at work tomorrow but can make sure someone is around for the delivery to make sure it's not missed.

Has anyone who ordered in the UK with the student discount received an update that the AirPods are shipped? My order is still showing PFD with a 19/12 delivery.

Mine is still PFD. Might be shipping based on location. I'm in London btw.

Another U.K. 19th order just shipped. Will be using this instead of my B&O H8's. Bought them for the increased convieince. Let's hope the sound quality is not too bad.

well I think I am gonna nerd out for the first time in a long time. I got my wife to take my son to the bus tomorrow and with apple opening at 8am I am going to try to get there around 7-730 and try my luck at getting a pair and just canceling my order scheduled for 1/12/17. I just wish I knew if Tmobile was getting any cause they are much closer.
