Delivery embargo, not the review embargo. UPS is not legally allowed to deliver phones prior to launch day. Yes, occasionally some slip through, but thats due to massive negligence.
Got a tip for us?

Did you wake up on the wrong side of the bed today? I can't figure out what your problem is. Maybe get a cup of coffee.......or a Margarita.
Ooooo a margarita sounds so good right now!
UPS said specifically for apple devices you are only allowed to schedule a window 3 hours before the actual delivery time. she said my area is between 10am to 2pm, So I have to get up at 6am to schedule a 10am-12pm pickup she will refund my money. She doesn't know why the system already "took payment" Oh and we figured out there system on her end said my package was delivered, but it really wasn't. She filed a ticket with IT to correct it.
Mine just departed KY and is on the truck on its way.
this is the route my apple watch 6 took so i expect the same.

If you paid the $8 for the time slot with UPS it should have been cancelled. Mine never even charged because it gave me a time slot when it was saying delivery was 10/21. After the delivery date updated the UPS app says “your confirmed delivery window was cancelled due to new delivery date”. I don’t see them opening the delivery window option now as I’m sure they’ll be super overloaded. So we all have to just be patient.
Edit: just checked my PayPal, the charge from ups is actually still pending but I foresee it refunding after tomorrow.

System said it was already delivered. I wanted a 2 hour window for delivery at my house because everything gets stolen in my neighborhood.
UPS says that’s how it works. The Cc transaction is not posted until and unless the package is delivered in the 2 hour window.

Apple stores in Australia are opening in 3.5 hours (I think that’s the first major market), so we should start seeing regular people unboxing their phones in a few hours 🤪
Okay anyone wanting to hold their package at their local CC location I went to the tracking page, pulled up the little chat box, got past the dumb automated system, then a lovely lady pulled up my package verified my pickup center (the CC) and confirmed my phone number. I will get a call in the morning when its ready, irregardless im going to be there when they open. The lady was so kind, and I made sure to let her know I truly appreciated her help, these people don't hear it enough.
Yeah I don't think ive ever heard of the paid delivery window actually working on iPhone delivery days. You either have to be patient or pick it up at the hub which is usually quicker than waiting for the UPS driver. Idk why people act like on delivery day thats their iPhone is the only one getting delivered.
