I bet it will be at your local depot on Saturday ready for delivery on Monday. You will be able to collect from the depot on Saturday morning.
 
OK I think I have figured it out, as said the goods should arrive by about 7 tonight our time but it looks like the earliest plane to leave wont arrive in the uk until 3:35 am. You know, now that i have found that out, I don't expect to see it until monday. Sigh.

If they arrive in the UK tomorrow would there not be a possibility of a Saturday delivery? That is if TNT deliver on weekends
 
Just checked tracking on tnt.com and it said "please call".

The lady said that all the shipments in this batch will be going out on Monday. At least it's nice to know!
 
only if Apple paid for a Saturday delivery... which they didn't!

Had mine sent to work as I am never home so Monday it will be for me :)

This thread has been an amusing distraction though! If you are out and about you can use this iOS app called Deliveries (£2.99) to track the location of your AppleTV (and most other orders that have tracking).

To pass on information I was told a page ago use the international TNT tracking page (use Google) and you will get real tracking info instead of please call. I think the UK one only starts working once the AppleTV has landed in the UK.

Did they say when they would be getting them in? Maybe we would be able to go and collect them sat/sun if they get them quick enough!

Yes I use that App too! Very hand and a nice UI :)
 
Ok TNT say it still hasn't left HK and the flight is still delayed from what she can tell. She said it wouldnt be in our locate depots until late sat - early Sunday then out for delivery Monday. No delays for the final delivery so Monday it is people :)

wow ya kidding... that's a very long delay... did she give any reasons for the delay? unless the plane was half empty I would have thought that they would fly the plane and anything else would be put on the next. Or maybe there's a fault with the pane?!

Paste your TNT tracking code into this website and you will basically get the same info as the person on the phone :) They might have a small bit of extra info but that page will tell you where it is and if it is in your local depot. As mentioned before avoid the UK tracking page it is useless.

Looking at the tracking info I bet on Monday maybe Tuesday.

TNT do have more information internally - no bad news (like plane abducted by flying saucer) ever makes it through to the public domain.

I agree with the estimate though - Monday if we are lucky, Tuesday or later if not.

No reason given :( just said monday is the day.
 
Billed yet?

As with everyone else, mine has been shipped, but Apple status shows delayed and TNT shows no movement since HK on 28th.

I have just today received by email from Apple containing my 'Billing Document' which clearly states that the sum due has been paid by credit card. Strange thing is though that my card hasn't been charged yet!? Has anyone else noticed this?

Also I go away on Monday for 16 days, so if the damn thing doesn't arrive til Monday or later I will miss it grrrrrrr. How long will TNT hold an item for if it cannot be delivered - does anyone know?

Best call them... I think they hold things for about 1 or 2 weeks if it's a failed delivery. Could a neighbour take it for you?

Nice one!

Apparently it's at Arnhem, so plenty of time to get here for Monday.
 
Well nothing for me so far and yours have landed a lot sooner than I thought they would. Hmmmm. I wonder what time they will hit the uk. If it's before 12 we could probably assume arrival will be tomorrow. What do you guys think?
