Other UK iPhone (2018) XS/XS Max/XR Pre-Orders and Dispatch Thread

[WRXiceman]

Dispatched too. UK Mail for me.

 

[kevuwk]

Checked my order and it has been dispatched with UK Mail. Would have preferred DPD as they are pretty much the only company who haven't failed a delivery to me and have good timing/tracking

 

[Billyjimbob]

Dispatched ! UKMAIL

 

[zacpack]

2 x DPD notifications for my iPhone and Watch. Apple order now showing as dispatched with link to DPD.

As I'm not actually going to be in on Friday/Saturday. Two questions:
1. There seems to be options to change the delivery, but not one to "Collect from Depot" is that not an option with Apple?
2. I seem to be able to schedule Sunday deliveries. Didn't know DPD do them!?

Same! Really hope they don't let me down. Watch is with DPD tho but I'm more excited for my phone as I sold my X last weekend and been using a slightly water damaged iPhone 6

Mine has shipped via UK Mail

Wanted DPD as I get an hour time slot which would of been handy.

Never mind. It’s on it’s way!

Some people are lucky I ordered Saturday and nothing yet

 

[BMcCoy]

UK Mail do sometimes provide a 1-hour delivery window..

 

[bigscotal]

Can you share who you order with? I'm waiting on people who ordered directly from Apple (like me) to have shipped/dispatched or courier messages!

Same here. My order, direct with Apple and due tomorrow, is still showing as “Preparing for Dispatch”.

Last year someone collected from the depo and because it was already at their local depo they collected a day early. As a result I wouldn't be surprised if they've removed this feature.

Yeah they do Sat and Sundays but I think you have to pay for the upgrade.

Interesting,

Ordered separately.

Watch is coming via DPD

iPhone is coming via UK Mail.

Both ordered via App as soon as Store Opened.

I think you still get a time slot. I remember when I ordered my 6s Plus it told me how many stops away the delivery driver was.

 

[Vundu]

DPD for me.

 

[CC117]

Dispatched. UKMail.

It’s always UKMail for Northern Ireland deliveries

 

[Soooki]

DPD for me!

 

[scgf]

It told me how many stops away the delivery driver was.

I start pacing around at this point, and try and imagine how long each delivery previous to mine might take. Then I keep peeping out of the window and my heart rate increases! We never really grow up do we!!

 

[mark-in-mk]

UK Mail is owned and run by DHL now. Much less of a shambles than they used to be.

 

[Jinjin]

and all us in store collectors seeing nothing but our reservation confirmation.... so boring

 

[kevoo_100]

Mine is still processing wtf

 

[r1biker]

Yep items at Hinckley

Thanks. Odd that DPD have used a different email for me then!

 

[ballydean]

Haven't got my notification yet but everyone that's getting DPD as a courier, are you all situated in the South-East/London?

EDIT: Never mind, got UKMail which is okay, I guess..

 

[JamesHP]

A mate who works for a well-known phone retailer just sent me a picture of numerous XS/Max boxes. Tantalisingly close! Ah well, this time in 23 hours it'll hopefully be in hand

 

[Krayzkat]

Don't know about UKmail (never heard of them tbh) but DPD are quite good because their app shows you where delivery driver is in real time, and tells you how many stops they are from you, and updated delivery slot. You have to download the app then register, and then all your current DPD deliveries are automatically loaded onto your profile.

 

[SoJoe]

I’ve pre ordered a iPhone Xs via o2 upgrade but it’s still saying in progress has anyone had any emails or dispatch confirmation email or text from o2

 

[Volcano22]

DPD Notification for me too. Woohoo! Manchester based.
