You can try. I'm just giving you what they have done to me in the past. If I had my pick of shipping carriers DHL all the way. UPS is the worst.
Got a tip for us?

Should've kept it, they gave me the different color for free!
Oh dang. Maybe I’ll ask anyway. I cancelled before I saw it was a common thing I thought I was just half asleep and hit the wrong color.
It's not his apartment... it used to be his apartment.
Can we see the back? I also ordered the graphite color, but I haven’t taken it out of the box, yet. I’ll do that when I get home for lunch, lol.
I think he was hoping (reasonably) that Apple would make a correction and ask UPS to intercept the package to go to his actual address (or at least retract the package entirely).
Well now that none of the PB 12 pro's are available at the local stores any longer (some even became available today!) I can breathe a little easier and just keep praying I get a shipped email! These deliveries are so stressful! Wish I had been able to cancel my stupid timeframe order.
FedEx has already been around my road and finished. UPS said my Next Day Air delivery should already be here, I think they are holding it until the iPhone delivery time of 4-8pm. Very sad.

I got mine all setup and its awesome! I would've kept the 11 Pro Max another year, If I didn't want the smaller size this time around. 5g isn't worth the hype in my area either haha.
Yea do they usually up the cutoff time for sending out local trucks to deliver on big days like today? Usually if you don't see arrived at local facility by a certain time, you know you are doomed to wait another business day
First in line at the customer center! UPS account updated to show its held. Glad I’ll be able to get in and out and get on with my day!

Retract the delivery? Every turn of the UPS truck is pre-planned. Literally they avoid left turns. They don’t revisit houses once a delivery is made. That’s why if you call in a mis-delivery they have it picked up the next day. You can’t redirect a package once delivered.
Oh. That's just silly. You validate the address when you verify shipping and payment and when you get your invoice you see the shipping address. Then you add 7 days to change routing of UPS to send it to your local CC. Seems like a lot of assuming. Its sh*tty situation. I hope he can get it fixed.
Yeah depending on what I do next year, I'd be doing this again! Its amazing to be in and out within secs, and not having to wait to be delivered.
I'm the gal with the 10/30-11/4 window who won't be home that weekend 🤣
If it arrives early anywhere from the 27-29th I'll be okay. OR if it arrives after 11/2/20. It just burns me up that if I hadn't pre-ordered I could have ordered/picked up my phone today! But there was no way of knowing that, obviously. SIGH.

See you guys in 2 weeks!!!unfortunately, you can’t adjust the brightness until after setup.
Unfortunately my 12 pro screen isn't as white as my iPhone X even with both set to max brightness.

Is that after 14 days and returned it lol.
I'm waiting on both as well. Unfortunately I'm UPS hits my house around 6PM
There’s always gotta be that person. I feel like using the Follow My Delivery map to find the driver and ask for your stuff is just wrong and a dick move. Anyone else? Ya I’m super excited and wanted my phone as soon as possible but I held mine for pickup not chased the UPS guy down on the street.

True, but a supervisor could get a driver to "break route" if asked to do so. That's also how the "confirmed delivery windows" work if honored... a driver has to generally "break route" to meet that commitment, so you should show some extra special love to your driver for doing so and possibly extending the rest of his/her day out further than needed.
