Per the receiver's request, the package is being held for pickup. Pickup must be made within 5 business days.

What can "Brown do for me?" how about open up sooner than 0930??
I have always picked mine up at our local hub, but maybe it’s a covid thing or just a new development I wasn’t aware of, ..that my only choices for pick up were CVS stores, ups stores, michaels (wth) etc.. it will not let me pick up at UPS itself.. so I get to wait until probably almost dinner time before mine gets here. I’d take 9:30 in a heartbeat. Lol

Follow my delivery is the worst feature ever. Simply because after being on the road, I notice the truck is back at the depot. WHY!?!? :p

If you ever have the chance to watch a sort at UPS Worldport or FedEx SuperHub in Memphis, do it. It is amazing.
Funny you say this: do you remember the movie Cast Away? During the opening credits, we see a package travel through the FedEx system and end up with Tom Hanks in a snowy Russia. And for some reason, I find all of that so fascinating. I don't know. Just do. Second best part of the movie, behind "Wilson!"

Anyone else having issues getting their phones from a customer center? Right now at mine I’m being told that iPhones can’t be released even though I have a valid hold request through ups.

:) I sent UPS an email to request pick up at CC. It seems that now you can't pick that option via My Choice.

Woke up late today (8:30) took off work because I need to burn some of my unused vacation hours before I lose them end of year. My phone had arrived in Cleveland! It has since gone to the eastern Cleveland suburbs "destination" and is now out for delivery!!

Now to spend the rest of the day cleaning up my Pixel 4XL, and getting ready to be back in iOS land! That and obsessively tracking the UPS truck!! Smokey the Labradoodle will be on lookout.

Just as I say that, the status switched to "Out for Delivery" again and I can use Follow My Delivery... UPS is a mess! Playing with our emotions. o_O

So, it’s 100% correct they’ll just leave these and no signature required?!
Nothing is 100% (except you know). If the driver should feel that something is wrong or the package would be at risk, he could ask for signature or other ID. Or even not leave it.
