Just spoke to TNT about my delivery and they now say it wont be with me before the 18th! I find that incredible as it is already in Europe. What's going on?

C

Every time I ask them (yes I've done this about 4 times now..) They start out saying delv on 18/2, but when I ask them how this can be with it already being on its way to Denmark, they al say: That is strange. You should really get on monday (or even today- thats not going to happen though). The have no explanation for why their systems says 18th..
If they don't deliver Monday ill be very disappointed!
 
guys mine was shipped on the 5th but i have no details on teh courier yet? is this normal?

That's what I've got. You get more information from the US Apple Store. It at least tells you who it's shipping by and a tracking number. There isn't a way to track the number though and if you call the company in question, Syncreon, they claim no knowledge at all and that they only deal with Dell and don't deliver for Apple.

Mine shippied the 3rd and it's still the same as yours. One that shipped on the 1st arrived today so I think I'll get mine Monday or Tuesday. I'd guess yours would be deliverd on the Thursday or Friday next week since it went out two days after mine.
 
thanks for the reply my delivery has moved from the 15th(fri) to the 16th :( so as its being delivered to my work address hopefully it will be on the 15th.


cant believe apple put us thru so much pain ;)

Nah... my MBA is still showing as out for delivery on the 13th on Apple site. And when I rang TNT they told me Friday 8th or Monday 11th.

As it happened it arrived yesterday on the 7th. So I wouldn't put too much emphasis on that projected date.

Hope you are right. Spoke to a few people after they gave me the 18th, and now my delivery is ranging from a guaranteed latest 13th to an 18th to someone saying its still in China and won't ship because of the New Year there! Thats what I call a range :D

Seems pointless checking the TnT site for information...

Hopefully its Monday :)

Just spoke with TNT, their tracking system is up to date as of the 7 Feb. If your shipment is in Arnhem as of this date and bound for the UK then it will be trucked across this week end and then on to your local distribution depot for delivery in due course. I have a del date of 13 Feb from Apple while TNT show 18 Feb. Apple tell me that their date is correct and TNT will be working with this!
 
8 Feb 2008 17:28 Hannover Road Hub Consignment Passed Through Transit Point

I wasn't sure to believe when somebody else mentioned it, but now there's proof: TNT put my MBA on a truck for a final journey across Europe.

Oh well, should be delivered on monday. I might call the local depot tomorrow and see if I can pick it up myself.
 
lol next week she will know your name!^^ our shipping dates haven't changed and i think that's a good sign.
all this waiting because we ordered 3 days later...but now IT'S OUR TURN!! :p

Do you really take this as a good sign :eek: :confused: :eek:

And after the different things they told me on the phone, I don't take them seriously anyway! :mad:

Ah, and both of them told me to send me eMails with details about the status of my order. Guess what: None of them arrived!

:D
 
I will call them again tomorrow if it doesn't ship tonight. :)

So, let me guess: No shipping today? I'm right, right? :D

Sorry, just a little bit sarcastic - I'm in the same situation as you ... ;)
 
That explains a few things... Thanks for the heads up on the 'trucking'!

A batch arrived from Arnhem tonight at the TNT Northampton import hub, I think these could well be at local distribution centres on or by Monday so we should see our MBAs early next week.

:)
 
One addition to the list!

Aichan (Spain): 1.6/80; Order: Jan 18 - Shipped on Feb 4th - Feb 8/20 - del: Feb 14

I ordered the MBA + SuperDrive + Ethernet, so I had a Merge in Transit NL and couldn't track it that much...

A few minutes ago, I got a carrier tracking number and carrier (NL Distribution Center, suppose it's TNT because my dad just came in with a letter from them with the bill :cool:) And shipping date for the SuperDrive & ethernet (the ones with a tracking button) just changed to Feb 8th :confused: just Yeah, all this happened in the span of a few minutes. Maybe I'll get it tomorrow? One can only hope...
 
Hmm... same thing here. Things seem to move, but not really in a way which would make much sense:

There was a slight update on my shipment status today. Estimated Delivery Date changed from FEB 14 to FEB 8 :confused: ... this would have been today :eek:

Assigned Carrier is now NL DISTRIBUTION CENTER and there is a 20 digit Carrier Tracking Number starting with 0034

Still no entry at Signed By

I believe the MBA could be in the NL and waiting there to be emerged with the Ethernet adapter (which won't happen before next week).
 
just happened to me aswell. 20 digit tracking and NL Distribution center as assigned carrier. Also the delivery date is set to 8th, I guess they have to hurry up :)
 
My laptop just hit Northampton hub! Nice. Fingers crossed for Monday now :)

C

Its me who should have his fingers crossed...

Remember I ordered on 16Jan and they still didn't manage to put the SSD with 1.6 :eek:
ohhh, how much I am hating this combination now.. I wish I paid extra and got the 1.8/64

But I shouldn't complain :rolleyes: as they said from the begining that it will ship Feb 11, so will see what will happen on Monday - Feb11
