Alternate Reference Tracking

Go to this link: https://www.ups.com/track?loc=en_US&requester=ST/. Click on track by reference on the right. Use your order's phone number as your reference number. Fill out the rest of the fields you can. You should then be able to see if you have a tracking number yet. Once again, you can't see the number, but you have piece of mind.

I used my phone number to track on the ups website and my phone is already up as shipped. Here we go!!

I give up lol

Don't let my nerves get to you lol

The only reason that I'm so worried about this whole "Processing" thing is because I've had absolute disasters happen before. And the worst/first one started just like this. That's not something you have to worry about.

And I look at it this way: If my preorder does go through and it just took longer than everyone else to update, then, for every iPhone preorder going forward, I won't have to worry about it! This one is just like an end all/be all preorder. It will determine what happens every year going forward - because if this one works, then I get to keep doing the same thing every year after!

Long story short, you have nothing to worry about - so don't sweat it! We'll make it!

Thank you for this. Apple.com says order in progress, my payment method has not been charged, but I can track by reference and it says it's on the way. I am surprised that even before payment has been authorized its on its way?

That is surprising, but based on the issues yesterday, I can see this scenario. Maybe the computers haven't caught up on payment processing yet. That or your bank/credit card hasn't received the pending charge yet.

Woah, that’s far away from ZhengZhou, which is where my phone is currently!

Okay, I just downloaded Flightradar24. My first time buying on iPhone on preorder day. This is going to be fun. lol

Are you sure? That isn't even close to CGO airport.

 

[Spiffyis5150]

I got tracking! YAY. 11:33am timestamp.

Same timestamp for me in my UPS tracking info. Our phones have started their way home to us!

 

[TheYayAreaLiving 🎗️]

Part of Wave 1. This is where your iPhone is coming from.

This is one of the brand-new Foxconn facilities in Mainland China. Congratulations again!!!

Fun fact: Look at how close Zhengzhou Airport is to the Foxconn assembly plant. Even tho the airport is right there. Expect to depart from Shanghai airport.

Update: Pending confirmation. Not enough evidence as of yet.

It is a 10-hour drive to the Shanghai International Airport. You guys will be transporting from UPS trucks.

I stopped ordering iPhones from AT&T since iPhone 4 came out. Ever since then, only relied on Apple.com solely.

It’s been years. I had a business account with them at my last job.

Same here!!! Had a negative experience with 4 over at ATT

Ever since been dealing with Apple exclusively

I’ve never had a good delivery experience but I was getting my phones through a business account then.

Yes. This is me. I can’t see the number or even the time but I have this view.

Yes sir. 100% sure!

It's a 10-hour route. Notice how the UPS label says CGO airport. The iPhones are expected to depart from CGO International Airport.

ZHENGZHOU AIRPORT (CGO)​

Ok now that I have my tracking and such just pondering how the 22nd will play out with delivery. Unless there is overnight in my neighborhood UPS guy says we are typically end of route (Midish afternoon). I see this in my tracking:

It has it coming before that mid afternoon point I forgot what it was last year but he did not make it until 4-5 PM said he was delivering lots of iPhone 14’s. So my silly question at this point how good have been those estimated times (I see some this morning that are from mid to late afternoon. I know UPS servers have had issues so I take the scans and estimates with proper grains of salt LOL but inquiring minds keeping busy waiting for Christmas and their toys want to know LOL

But the picture was of Dāndōng!

 

[dannyyankou]

Seeing some of the estimated delivery times makes me so glad I did store pickup lol. 13 minute drive to the Apple Store and I'll be out with my new iPhone at 9:45am

 

[Apple_Tiger]

I know the phones will be ready for pickup on the 22nd at the Apple Store, but this is the first time I can't track my order!! Unless there is a way that I can't figure out. Oh well I'll live. As my son says First World Problems right!!

Yea its the unfortunate of doing in store pick up. We can’t track.

 

[IceCool]

Hey guys... What? This was through the reference number.

Nothing for the 22nd, but the 18th (x2) and 19th???? I haven't ordered anything besides the iPhone. I know what the September 12th and August 21st deliveries were though...

Mine is also quoting a much earlier time than usual as well. I bet by Thursday or Friday that changes to “By end of day”.

For me its a 2 minute walking distance from my house to the apple store.

View attachment 2264352 Same!

Still don’t see track by reference number on the app. I do see it on the website. Can you track on the app?

 

[notabot10]

So if we are on wave 1 is there a chance we’ll get it before Friday ? I’m using a temporary iPhone SE over here because I sold my 13PM
