Not sure if my UPS driver is this nice but I never have to sign.

However, I do have a UPS MyChoice account which I have set to authorize delivery (Shipment Release).

Other than that, nothing here still. Last status update is the 6:55am mechanical failure one.

Heads up guys! They are delivering pkgs today. When I woke up this morning it said delivery would be Monday. I checked back like 30 mins later it was delivered. They just left it on the porch. I requested it be sent to a UPS Store bc I've had pkgs stolen before and they just left it. IM FURIOUS! I'm on the phone with UPS now. All of the bs just to get it here and this happens!

I am a bit annoyed. It seems AT&T is shipping phones with estimated delivery of the second week of October, however my early October phone hasn't shipped yet. Still says October 5-14.
Probably depends on the models they're producing more that they're shipping.

Did anyone have a request to hold for pickup before the news of the Saturday deliveries? Mine was set to hold so I'm assuming I didn't get an email about a Sat delivery because of that. It shows that it's in my city, but I was curious if anyone has been able to pick up their phone from UPS today. My CC is open from 10-1 but the tracker doesn't show that it is ready for pickup.

Exactly! After I signed, my tracking updated to Delivered. Maybe they were loaded onto trucks at DFW airport?

Great! So i guess it makes little sense for me to monitor my tracking as its useless. And yes, maybe they were loaded on to trucks directly from DFW airport for delivery.

If you don't have a long drive, it might be worth heading over there close to closing time.

It's pretty close to me so I guess that wouldn't be a bad idea!

A UPS SUPERVISOF JUST TOLD ME THEYRE DELIVERING THE IPHONE/AIR PKGS ASAP and ARENT CHECKING THE MY CHOICE DELIVERY CHANGE REQUESTS

That would be wild. I actually don't think I would mind it considering I'm home haha.

Probably best to just sit and watch for the driver, now. I left a pre authorization on the door (in case I was in the bathroom, etc), but I don't trust them to leave it: they have some discretion in that situation, and sometimes when the driver sees the signature form, they just leave a door tag saying that they attempted delivery (sometimes they just keep on going).

If my original delivery quote from Apple was 9/26, will they still possibly deliver today on Saturday? Mine arrived in Louisville this morning and I live 5 miles from the hub. Here's the tracking:

Could that 6:49AM departure scan actually be the phone heading out for delivery? Is anyone else seeing their package show up without the status changing?

I hope so. I changed mine to be delivered to the ups store (cc center is closed today) since I have to be at work soon and will be at work Monday as well. I hate being in the dark, mine has a destination scan in town but hasn't changed to out for delivery. Called ups store and they haven't received anything for me there and they already received their deliveries for today. Don't know what to expect....whether an unexpected delivery today at the house or a Monday delivery.

I have the same scan. Live about 30 miles south of louisville. Really hoping it's out for delivery and they didn't scan.

Would you believe mine still hasn't updated since the 7:35 departure scan? Lol unreal


I have a feeling at least in NYC, if you have a departure scan from Jamaica, NY or your hub then it's out for delivery -- the tracking events don't seem to be keeping up.

So the best thing to do is to not leave a pre-auth slip and wait, hoping it will be delivered today?

Just read this on the UPS site

"Hold for Pickup service is not available for Saturday delivery shipments."

So here's to hoping they actually do deliver today LOL... My original date from Apple was 20-22 so if it shows up on Monday it'll be close to a week late!
