My CC opens at 12p (Oakland), but it still has a departure scan in Oakland (which is where the CC is). Would it even be worth it for me to go in if my tracking doesn’t say “ready for pickup”? It’s been here since 7am
Mine said the same until it was closer to the time for the CC to open. Then it changed to pickup. It will change soon.

I just ordered 2 Xs last night with Apple iUP and both are set for 1st week of dec. Wondering 2 things:

1. Try to go to Apple over the next month and figure a way to cancel the current order with iPhone Upgrade and get 2 in the store.
2. Wait it out and hope my shipping approves over the next few weeks?

For the 7 Plus, I cancelled my orders and went to the apple store just a week after launch and they had a secret opening with a small line of buyers. I also used a web app that told me inventory stock in real time. I cannot remember the name of it though...

My X should be delivered today... First time I preorder and its successful.
 
watching UPS truck zigzag all around me. got so close once was going to jump in the car and drive the 2 blocks. then veered to another area farther away. Have to admit kind of fun watch the map. gives you something else to obsess over. LOL

Mine literally parked right in front of my house as if he was about to deliver, got out of his truck to check on packages, then got back in his truck and drove away lol

Bumping my question earlier... anyone picking up at the Hayward - CC?

I was originally going to route my package to the Hayward CC since I was going to be in the area today but when I clicked additional info I saw that they would be closed Mon - Sun (??) so I ended up not sending it there. Not sure if that's a mistake or not.

I was originally going to hold mine their until it showed closed hours which is weird because on Tuesday it showed open from 3pm-7pm. When I went to do the hold it told me not to send customer their and they would contact you about when pick up is available. So I decided not to go that route. Last night at 11:40pm while it was still at Oakland I change it to pick up at a local UPS Store near me and just waiting on the driver to drop it there. Currently he's in the area when I use follow my delivery.

Did you route it to another CC or taking a chance on delivery?

I decided to wait for delivery since I'm home all day today anyways. I hope it works out for you! I'd call the CC or UPS customer service just to check what's going on.

Has anyone in Los Angeles gotten the Follow My Delivery (watching the truck) to work? or is it just not available here in California?

I'm in NorCal and it works for me
 
Now to unpair apple watch, backup iPhone and then restore. Such a lengthy process. Oh and FaceID works surprisingly well even with my glasses on and I think it can detect when I look at it.
 
Mine finally showed at 5:30 for pick up at the Seattle CC. I’ll be leaving here in about 30 minutes or so. It’s maybe, what... 3 miles away, but you know, Seattle traffic. o_O

Picked up mine at 8:30am. 2nd in line, than 3 more people walked in behind me. So excited!

Were your orders paid with the Apple Upgrade Program?

In the Valley and it works here - also just delivered!

For anyone wondering about Selecting “Hold For Pick-up” too early, that’s BS. I selected Hold For Pick-Up at a UPS Retail Store as soon it popped in My Choice last weekend. It all depends on the particular route your local UPS drivers take - for me personally the store I chose “Historically” gets their delivery before my home.

Congrats to everyone that got their phone’s and patience be with those that are waiting :).
