This! ^^
I also have had the experience to see when my truck driver is like 5-10 stops away. It's cool and neat, but I heard that drivers have mixed feelings about this.
Has anyone been able to change their delivery to be held at their local UPS hub? I usually do this as its faster than waiting for UPS to drop off, but I'm not getting the option on UPS MyChoice
Here’s hoping. Mine was an :03 launch day order, “delivers 9/22.” With others who had been promised sometime in October and getting moved up, it’s a little baffling to me that mine is still sitting there. I’m going out of town the next day, it’s not great to think my phone could be sitting in the UPS hub for several days on vacation hold because of this.
Don't let an electronic device get in the way of socializing with friends and having real life experiences... I won't be able to set up my phone till Sunday because I have dinner plans on Friday and an outing all day Saturday. It's no big deal, the phone will be there waiting for me lol.
Nobody knows for sure yet this year. Check back tomorrow.
Just watched the iJustine review video. I give her props for getting a manicure before the hand closeups.
Probably annoying have someone pop up and ask for their package like I have done a few times. They are always professional though and I treat them with respect. I also reserve it for actual times I am going to have to step out when they are almost there.
I am sure the concerns for drivers have are mostly with the fact UPS corporate can track them with fine detail and less about us.
Well yeah -- I doubt they want to be slowed down by some inconsiderate person that can't wait an extra 15 mins to get their delivery. I mean, they have everything organized per their route, and have to stop what they're doing, and then moved everything around to accommodate said person -- which then delays everyone else getting their deliveries on-time. I wouldn't mind them getting rid of that feature.
I'm addicted to fruit teas (boba tea without boba). In fact I'm having one today to celebrate it's Wednesday!! 🧋
Has to be regional. I get packages delivered daily by UPS and never seen that. I remember it from years back but it hasn't been a thing here for a long time
That’s pretending to be USPS (not UPS).
The irony of the scam is USPS knowing your phone number but not your address.
I mean it is possible you fell through the cracks, but I wouldn’t think that until Friday.
UPS has “master tracking numbers” that are scanned for pallets and for things like trucks and etc. That helps them to not have to scan every single package on a tractor trailer when they aren’t emptying that trailer at a given stop.
Once they break down the pallets at world port they’ll start getting actual individual package scans. As they move to their final sort hubs. Many get scans then that it just magically started at world port.
You might be one of those people.
There is every once in while, for a few years now. "Follow your delivery on a live map", and it's actually pretty close to near real time (yes, intentionally redundant statements there
).Day of delivery, you get an email and even a link in MyChoice tracking every once in a while. Unsure what the criteria are for providing that, no real pattern I've found.
Hopefully! I know missed scans do happen for some people, hadn’t experienced it myself in the past though.
Will be interesting if a weather delay a day ago results in them missing a deadline 3 days later. There wasn't that much of a weather delay
Friends aren’t here forever believe me. Your iPhone will be.
What I have noticed that has changed from the past.
UPS used to allow you to track the truck all day long. So I would see it leave the UPS hub near me and etc. FedEx still does it this way for me.
Now UPS only shows it a bit before their estimated delivery time then a little bit after if still not delivered. Then it goes away and the button just isn’t shown.
So if you are checking outside of that window it will look like the feature doesn’t exist anymore.
My order is just shipped, can't believe. Switzerland, Provider Sunrise

Speak for yourself! We’re in this forever from my perspective. We are all forever bonded here!
Friends until the end!
People in this thread have called Apple and they confirmed it was disabled from their end this year, and there is no way to hold it at the UPS center anymore.
Doubtful. UPS is delivering these much slower than normal.
But I also know UPS factors this into their timing. Including having multiple delivery start times during the due to account for delayed flights into final destination hubs even.
