I'm currently w/o a phone so would like nothing better than to have a new phone by the end of the day, but honestly, what are the odds of UPS having received the devices, shipped them but not had a chance to scan them in either upon receipt or during transit? I think Tmobile will take their usual 24-48 hours to process shipping so we should expect them either tomorrow or day after if they are shipped via overnight.
we will definitely be getting them no later than tomorrow

Nothing is written in stone yet! Don't jinx it.

Edit: On the other hand, they might want to clear those phones out so they can process the ones coming in... JB people, get excited. :)
 
I got the text from t mobile saying everything is processed and ready to go. Now tomorrow is definitely a possibility but I highly doubt today. Though I wish. As soon as I see some movement on UPS then I'll be more confident it's coming within a day.
 
Check that, there are seven planes flying in to Alaska right now, with one of those 8 much farther behind the other 6.
 
It's going to be awesome everyone waiting for the UPS Scan how much we are gonna post saying that they recieved it!
 
If you were charged yesterday and haven't seen movement of your package or haven't received any email from Tmobile your phone is on one of those planes arriving in Alaska tonight. Once it departs Alaska you should receive your device within that next day.

The devices are shipped to us from Louisville so if that were true, they would have to be delivered in Kentuky to T-Mobile that would then process them and hand them over to UPS for shipping. Its unlikely that Tmobile starts creating labels before it has physical possession of the shipment.

Its most likely the case that these devices have arrived with T-Mobile (probably over the weekend), have been sorted by tmobile, had their shipping taken care of and are on their way to UPS. Handling time is generally 24-48 hours before they ship. Tmobile literally says as much in their email.

They are sorted out at the TMobile facility overseas and are transported over to UPS to leave Asia and are already in transit to Alaska, which then departs to Kentucky then to wherever USA
