So my order is now ready to pickup according to Apple. But it's not though really is it..
 
I wonder why it’s different for me

How did you do this? No option to upgrade my time slot on the browser tracking or app?
Me neither which is why I had to call, DPD said that I had to ask Apple, Apple said it takes 24 hours, I called DPD back, escalated to a manager and he eventually said they would do it for free, probably just to get me off the phone :D

Excellent, my order has moved forwards 1 1/2 weeks! It previously said 5-12 December.

Delivers 24 Nov - 1 Dec by Standard Shipping

Happy :)
 
Yeah, hopefully it will let you avoid the team who try to encourage you to stay - lol!
[doublepost=1509636295][/doublepost]Just realised that my billing info on my Apple ID expired last month :( I hope this doesn't affect my order :eek:

Has anyone with a shipping date of 13-20 Nov seen payment charges made yet?

Yep, I had a watch strap left in the basket, thought that deleting it would waste a little time, and it was 08:09 when I eventually got through. Paid via apple pay and the money was taken straight away, as I found out in the wallet!!
No, but checking on the hour - I will add you to my list of people to @ if I see it

Can you add me too :)

The girlfriend’s in-store order has just changed to “Ready for Pickup”... I’m just above the Apple store in Leeds... if only I could pick it up!!
No queues outside as of yet.

Mine’s still at 13-20 Nov... May just have to do an all-nighter here...

god knows how you managed to do that, apple just outright told me its not possible and DPD said not possible too, contact apple if you want it changed

Ah, don't think I can be arsed to try that. :D I did ring DPD though and asked if the option might become available at some point. They said once they actually have the package then it should appear. Fingers crossed! Otherwise knowing my luck, I'll get a delivery slot of 5-6pm lol.
 
I have just called DPD though the app and they couldn’t “upgrade” the delivery time as he said for this specific parcel! We will get an allocated time slot tomorrow and that’s it...nothing we can do before then!

I don’t know how the rest did it but it smells like “FAKE NEWS” to me
 
I’ve fully paid and got a pick up window for 17:00. Do you think they’d allow me to collect earlier as I’ve now arranged to finish work at lunch.
I chatted Apple about this as I’ve done the same but they told me to turn up in the time slot and that they couldn’t change it...maybe try calling and see if they say anything different to you?
 
Hello all, just for information, my delivery date has moved :)

I ordered the Silver 256 model around 1pm (yeah I know, I was unsure on colour!) I as initially given a 5-6 week lead time, 4th Dec - 11th Dec. Checking the order today, it's now 24th November - 1st December...

Oh hey I had delivery times 4-11 Dec Just realised now when I checked it says same as yours now! 24.11-1.12 not great but always better!

Might just try this .. if i can get it tomorrow via John Lewis then i am going to cancel the Apple Order

Wanted to try this out too but if I do do they take money straight away or on collection? And also, Can I collect it on the same day? Or next day?
