Should I wait until i get a departure scan from KY to change it to CC pickup or now that it's on US soil/departed AK is it ok to do it now?
Has anyone called and spoken to a UPS agent to confirm if their delivery is in fact scheduled for tomorrow?
LOL! It's the same experience for me, they love to walk right past my house and deliver to my neighbors. Hence why I pick up at UPS CC every year...

I tried... can't even get to speak to a CSR, the system just hung up after said they'll transfer the call to a CSR
That'll be interesting to see if they actually come through.
A little trick I learned recently when I was expecting an Apple purchase to be delivered by UPS- I happened to order a UPS overnight delivery with an early delivery time on the same day as the Apple and they brought my Apple device more than 6 hours earlier than their 2- 5pm estimated delivery! They apparently only wanted to stop at my house once that day.
Please use my UPS link so that I get my cut of your overnight delivery charges for tomorrow. :😁: Just joking about the "cut", but serious about the early-in-the-day delivery by UPS!
It wouldn’t hurt to order one for pickup to speed up the process. IMO
I am jealous of people getting the text confirmations from UPS, while at the same time know I would be bugged if UPS was texting me so I think I will leave it alone.
Change to UPS CC when it can no longer possibly be delivered on Thursday. :😁: That will happen because it will not move to your locale until Thursday evening/Friday morning.
It will be waiting for you on Friday when UPS CC opens.
I've been doing this preorder dance since the iPhone 3G. Once this first batch of iPhones gets scanned into Louisville, the delivery date will likely be updated to reflect the real 10/23 delivery date. They will not be delivered early. My Pro and regular 12 are within this first batch, waiting to be scanned in Louisville. If I'm wrong, I'll happily eat crow. But history isn't on our side for early delivery.
The UPS virtual assistant noticed "that you were tracking a package" and asked how it could help. 
Just obsessively refreshing here!

@Theyayarealivin have you gotten a date on yours? I've noticed almost exactly when you post your updates, my tracking information matches yours. I'm in Hawaii, so I don't expect tomorrow, but I did have the 10/21 date but its since dropped off to "Please check back later for scheduled delivery." (Saturday I think?)
What YEAR is that!?!
i am pretty sure none of us getting the phone tomorrow, just hanging there and you will get it Friday
I think that this year I’ll try for in-store pickup. This waiting for 11/6 is driving me batty, but I’m enjoying reading the 10/16 preorder posts.😂

It's showing 10/21/2020 with please check back later for scheduled delivery. I think we might we waiting till Friday.
Ugh I've been so busy with work today I haven't been able to check in to see how everything is going.
same! Fingers crossed it shows up early buuuut I suppose i’m okay with a Friday delivery 🙃
Past previous years, i've always done them right after I located my package after UPS created the label and still was in China and never had issues requesting a hold for pick up at UPS CC. Once the request is made it's there in the system.
I still think it's most likely to be Friday, but there are some things this year in the tracking that seem different than other years, so I might say it's a 10% chance they get delivered early.
While 99.99% certain they'll come on Friday based on past performance, it is quite exciting to contemplate Apple will be allowing Wednesday deliveries.
Obviously no one at UPS or Apple is reading this thread or they'd have shut down all the Wednesday delivery fantasies! :😁:
Mine is showing that is already available for pickup at the UPS Distribution Center in......... ZhengZhou, China 🤪

Rene Ritchie has always been my favorite reviewer. He is so knowledgeable.
I live in a standalone apartment away from the other multi story apartments and UPS passed me by for a couple runs on items that I purchase and I had to call UPS and tell them this is an apartment not a house. They told me since I did not have an apartment letter or number, they thought the address was wrong. My apartment has its own address and couldn’t figure out why they couldn’t figure this out. So I put ”A” letter on my apartment door, and from that point forward and no issues.
I just called the UPS 800 # and spoke to an agent. After entering my tracking information the automated system tells me that my package has a “scheduled delivery date”. Then I followed the prompts and spoke to an UPS agent. The agent I spoke with said that since this is an international package the UPS My Choice delivery date is an estimate provided at the time the label is printed from the shipper. She then confirmed my tracking information will be updated again after the package moves through their system to show a delivery date of Friday the 23rd. Based on this, I asked the UPS agent to have package held for pickup at my local UPS Customer Center. She confirmed it will be available for pick-up on the 23rd.
