Carrier Apple.com New 2018 iPhone Pre-Order Thread

[netnative]

Scheduled delivery on my iPhone XS Max has changed to Monday from tomorrow. Dang.

Anyone else see that happen?

I also got a Rescheduled Delivery for 09/24/2018.

 

[AZhappyjack]

Nope, just received a text about delivery tomorrow.

Exactly. I see a rescheduled delivery date of 9/24... and after that got the text from UPS about it being here tomorrow. Wow. This is just strange. You just have to trust the process.

 

[pcorrado]

Getting close!

Nice. Mine just left Indy heading to Chicago.

Nice. Mine just left Indy heading to Chicago.

Indy? Sceenshot? I live here..

 

[AppleFan91]

Did you get a change in your date? Post a screenshot..

So stupid. Apparently I went from Louisville to HK, to alaska again somehow.

 

[Shadowbech]

Everyone on Alaska 2:10 departure should now be updated to Monday. Wow.

Not everyone. Mine also departed 2:10 departure and I got update from UPS that mine would be delivered tomorrow.

 

[nothepro]

Just got off the phone with UPS. Rep said it is a technical error from Apple. Also said if there are any more issues I have to call apple. Kinda weird. Also said he saw 9/21 on his end while I saw 9/24 on mine.

 

[AZhappyjack]

Absolutely agree. But I've never seen as much of a mess of odd tracking updates (and, yes, I've been doing this for way too many years) as I have this year. Yes, in the past, I've had zero updates only to have it delivered on time. But all these changes in projected *delivery* times is unusual. IMO of course.

indeed. Very, very strange happenings this year... but still have faith in the process...

Received UPS text this morning indicating “AI delivering tomorrow by 3:00 P.M.”. We’re in Southern NJ. Box likely in Philly sorting queue headed for Lawnside, then on truck for delivery.

"Philadelphia, PA, United States 09/20/2018 6:54 P.M. Arrival Scan"

USUALLY hits my local hub around,5:30, 6am. Out for Delivery around 7:45am
I have no certain time of delivery, but UPS usually shows up around here between 2-3pm.

I was tempted to change this and pick it up at the hub around 8:30am tomorrow..I don't want to risk any screw-ups.

 

[CarolG]

Well, SOME of us don’t even show that we’ve left China yet. So yeah.

I love Jameson.

Leaving for Ireland in a few days... touring Jameson's. Hopefully with my Max iPhone in hand. Still says 9/24 instead of 9/21

 

[TechnicallyTee]

Yeah I wonder how its determined, mine has the 2:10 departure and mine is still set for tomorrow to be picked up at the CC. Not sure how they are going to ATL in time and sorted and be ready to be picked up in the AM. I guess we will see.

 

[Nanotyrns]

Me thinks, nay, ponders, if there is something up with UPS tracking. I've got a couple of cases coming from Amazon and today the delivery dates (through emails) have been jumping around too.

Just a ponder, yonder...

 

[pcorrado]

Indy? Sceenshot? I live here..

Here you go

That’s... what they do. You’ll be fine.

 

[Sailormannn]

We’ll see I guess. Lots of people impacted.

There is a flight from Louisville to YHM (UPS 476) at 4:41am tonight. Hopefully will be on it. Lots of time in Louisville to make it.

Still have a chance for Friday???

 

[fcs132]

Just to note this is a widespread issue it’s not just us here on macrumors, people of all sorts are flooding @UPSHelp on twitter.

What a bad day to work at UPS

If you don’t want any screwups I wouldn’t make any changes

[Uccle]

I'm too old to have faith...but I do have hope

 

[TechnicallyTee]

O yeah I know im not going to freak out and you have to consider time zones and its still plenty of time. Im on these forums every year and its the same thing.

We should be in the clear I have no update but this since we live in Indiana.

 

[rmt5034]

Not everyone. Mine also departed 2:10 departure and I got update from UPS that mine would be delivered tomorrow.

#metoo

 

[greytmom]

Just saw this on MacRumors front page (from someone's twitter). Conflicting informations from front-line agents usually means that they really don't know.
