I got a message saying my order was ready to pick up from the Apple Store, but the check-in window is tomorrow.

Wonder if I would’ve been able to pickup if I had gone in before it shut today?

I‘ve had a phone change to shipping at gone 11pm and still received it on release day
You are right. Just had text from DPD with the PIN for the delivery driver For tomorrow. In the DPD App it’s on its way to my local depot. The PIN is also on the DPD App as well. Thank You

Got my new iPad Air coming from Curry's via DPD tomorrow.
Also my Apple Pencil Pro coming from Argos via Yodel tomorrow.

Hopefully all will arrive without any problems!

What sort of instructions do they give you in relation to giving the PIN to the courier? Am nervous after the comment above getting a call to courier asking for it pre delivery.
Am DPD but not had this through yet?

This is confusing me because DPD hasn’t sent me any PIN for courier, nor have I ever had this happen.

I suspect it’s a combination of factors that determine if you get a pin from DPD.
If you have one it’ll be really obvious in the app for the item you’re tracking.
Having spoken to DPD after my issues they said 100% don’t give the pin until you have your delivery.
This should only be an issue if you have a concierge as I don’t recall an option to authorise release/leave with neighbour.

I didn’t get a PIN for an Air 5 delivered by DPD in 2022 so if not everyone has a pin now, it might only be on high end models. There’ve been cases of Amazon (in particular) orders not containing what they should so for higher value deliveries I film the unboxing. Better to have it than not, especially if you have to give a pin and are not allowed to inspect the contents first (doubtful, as that would multiply the time taken for each delivery.)
