So can we not pickup our phones this year at a UPS Access Point? I got an email saying that Apple is not allowing the redirect. Anyone else?
I got told this by a UPS agent and a Apple rep. IT’s apparently some new rule. But like @julit0 said. Let’s wait and see. If this indeed is the case, UPS/Apple will receive some backlash
 
That does not seem right as other people have been able to search via reference
Yeah, it was weird to me as well. Maybe they show up once UPS has the package (in the system but not yet visible, maybe)

Editing to say that I looked again & clicked the tracking number which opened the actual tracking page & my phone number (with the area code) & order number (without the last 2 digits) are also there with the first 4 reference numbers

You may have a mismatch of some Sort between the address/phone # in your MyChoice account vs the Shipping address you provided Apple. As you can see from the APT # discussions previously - any mismatch throws off what UPS will show you.

Yah. And i am going to call ups on monday if thats the case. The system should be smart enough that if a package gets delivered correctly regardless of the apt being before the apt #, it should not throw off my choice. As i said before. I have gotten packages delivered to me that had APT and those that did not.

It’s asinine imo

I'm looking at my tracking on UPS My Choice. I have the number but UPS doesn't yet have the package. There are 4 reference numbers listed & none of them is my phone number or order number

Mine was like that for a while, too…4 reference numbers nothing to do with phone or order #. Phone and Order # did populate under details a few hours later.
 
Yes. The reason why it’s greyed out is because it’s still in China. International laws are different. They are in control right now. The U.S. isn’t. (Until it passes customs for clearance) Once it makes it to the States it gets lifted and more options become available. Better to wait until you are in Alaska or Kentucky at least.

Even if you call UPS. They would advice you to call UPS International Customer Service. Agents in the US can’t do anything with the packages because of the International authorization hasn’t been passed.
Thank you!

If you have a regular driver bringing your packages, it could be that they just know your name and APT #, even if it’s not on the label. I get you though 👊🏽

For reference. Both of these tracking numbers have the EXACT SAME address. The inly difference is that on the line with my apt number, one of the tracking numbers had apt before my apt number, while the other just had the apt number

Ups system should be smart enough to know its the same damn address.
 
The multiple delivery trucks are carrying different levels of UPS category deliveries. Examples:

UPS Next Day Air Early

Next business day delivery is available as early as 8:00 A.M. to most major cities in the U.S. or by 9:30 A.M. to most other cities. UPS delivers to more ZIP codes by 8:00 A.M. than any other carrier. Next Day Air Early serves more businesses than FedEx First Overnight

UPS Next Day Air

Air is ideal for shipments that must arrive the next business day. UPS Next Day Air delivers to more ZIP codes and more businesses by 10:30 A.M. and 12:00 P.M. than FedEx Priority Overnight

UPS Next Day Air Saver

This is the most affordable UPS overnight service. Delivery by 3:00 P.M. or 4:30 P.M. to most commercial destinations, by the end of the day for residential locations.


No Apple uses AI worldwide and in the USA for Fulfillment centers and return centers. AI is the customer of UPS even though it is handled by third-parties.

I’m going to look into making a shortcut for the action button. It would be easy for me to open my garage door on the way home with the action button.
You can do the short cut with MyQ already and just use a voice command to your phone or Apple Watch. You don’t have to wait for the action button and don’t even need it. Works through my Bluetooth helmet comm no problem.
