Sorry, but I hope it is sitting in the post room otherwise that means none of us can get it before the 13th
I went to their site and entered the 14 digit delivery number and it showed the slot and a wiggly line with a van on it, in my case a non-moving van ;-) It's not a map like DPD though.
Seems to have gone offline. It was on the tracking page for me earlier but now not visible. Guess it’s too busy today
UKMail don't quite have the tech sorted as well as DPD.. no text with a delivery window, but some have received them - so a bit inconsistent... but they do have a rudimentary 'where is your driver' map.. showing a wiggly route where he's been stuck at delivery 5 for the past half-hour (I'm 81).
Have to say, DPD really have nailed it.. to be 'the' delivery service that every wants, good app, great in-flight delivery management options... Annoying as well for me as the neighbour over the road is DPD; although maybe that would've made me the very last delivery of the day, so perhaps not the worst outcome

Give them a call?!
Maybe turn on location sharing in the app if you haven’t done so then the driver can see where you are.
How do you track the van or how many deliveries it’s made so far for UK Mail? I have a 12-13:00 slot and that’s about all the info.
Edit: never mind, my page has updated with that info. I’m delivery 25 and he’s on his way to the 1st.
It is a mite annoying that Apple are sending 3rd party resellers stock so people who order today from Argos etc are getting them tomorrow while lots of us who ordered on the 27th from Apple are still waiting and will be for another 10d... You’d think they would sort out their own customers first but I guess they have contracts with resellers that they have to fulfil.
That said, hope everyone who gets one today/tomorrow enjoys it!
Make sure your saving your Health data in iCloud (new option in IOS 11) then I am reliably informed all your achievements and everything are retained and you can setup your phone from new if you wish and no need to restore from backup.
Apple pointed me to this yesterday which again changes how I would normally move my watch over to a new phone

Your wish is granted
The black camera housing does not look out of place on the space grey. Does not look good on the silver.
Here you goI agree, can we see some actual iPhone pictures? Especially in Space Grey

I’m having fun stripping down a 21.5 inch 2011 iMac for some SSD goodness... awaiting the OWC SATA and temp cable from Amazon as well today.
Obviously the X is slightly more exciting but missus expects her Mac to be ready to go by the time she’s back.
I wouldn't worry. Mine's been heading to delivery 1 since 9am apparently. Must just be an iffy tracking system.
Mine reported out for delivery at 9:30 from Slough; just had the location tracer updated. I am stop 86; driver is en route to stop 1. I guess later this afternoon for me then (though in the past he's spotted that he's going past my door and rung the bell on the off-chance, so there's still hope of an earlier delivery)...
UK MAIL CUSTOMERS
It seems like there's multiple reports of people tracking via UK Mail whose tracking says their driver is still on the way to the first delivery.
Safe to say it's just a dodgy tracking system by the looks of things. Don't worry about it. It's too widespread to be of any concern.
It'll be here soon.

They will turn you away, they turned me away at 10:30am for my 11:30am pickup the day after the 8 Plus release.
