Irish pre order

DubDJ

My order has tracking now. Origin scan in China, expected delivery is the 9th, same as the Apple estimate.

Ordered at at launch and it's on it's way! Didn't realize it would be coming direct from China!

Mine also just left Shenzhen and I only ordered on the 1st. Apple says it won't arrive until the 14th and UPS says "scheduled delivery information is currently unavailable." However you're all saying yours are gonna arrive on the 9th. I wonder why? It's by express post and I live in central Dublin, too.

I've a couple of space grey iPhone 6 (although they're not for me) that have just left Shenzhen, coming with UPS.

Delivery date saying Thursday at the moment on the UPS tracking. Happy enough with that.

I ordered around midday on Sept 26.

Same here

Ordered mine on the 30th of Sept. It dispatched on Saturday morning and came to my house at lunch time today.

Delighted with it and with how quick it came. It's the perfect size and really light.

Seems like people are getting them fairly quick once sent. I presume all through UPS. Anyone receive one from TNT yet or how quick did they find them if so?

Mine saying in transit at the moment and had said at an airport in Shanghai about an hour ago.

This is my 6+ currently that was ordered the minute they went available from apple. Was shipped with tnt and getting an estimated delivery date of the 13th, apples estimated was 8th-10th so hoping to get it by friday

Looks like ours are on the same consignment. Also ordered a 6+ with the exact same delivery info showing up.

Wish my had been sent by UPS. They seem to be arriving quicker than TNT. Here's my latest status:

"In transit to destination country - next updates expected in 4-5 business days". Surely it won't that long to come to Ireland.

Mine as well.
Guys the 13th is an estimated date and likely to change once these hit the Euro hub and then hit Ireland.
I can't believe TNT express international next update in 4-5 business days, any time I've had stuff from the states via TNT it's 24-48 hours max.
Either that or there is some serious misunderstanding around the word "express".

jimbooooo

how do you know if its TNT or UPS, does it say in the order?

mine has a reference number but doesn't say which courier.

Simply Red

Log into your apple account and go to your order, click on track delivery and itll be listed there under carrier

jimbooooo

humm, but don't have a carrier field yet (just status, est delivery, delivery number and delivery service). Was thinking you were guessing the carrier from the reference number pattern or such.

Did you get apple care + by any chance as well with your phone? Sometimes it can take 24 hours to get carrier information.

jimbooooo

no apple care. Just the iphone6 and the lightning to 30-pin adapter. Est delivery is set to the 14th but no carrier info. Status is "In Transit to Customer - Shipment Delayed" though

jimbooooo

oh I only noticed this now "Please Note: Your items dispatched from different locations and will be merged together before delivery. Once merged, your Order Status will be updated with carrier and tracking information (at least 48 business hours before your estimated delivery date)."

oh well, guess I'll have to wait then.

Welcome to my club! I am in the same boat too, Apple taking the piss emailed them today and they don't want to know! Same status as you. waiting for items to merge and then you will get your tracking information. i have delivery date of 16th, two weeks to get your iPhone...lol just wrong

So its been over 15 hours with out an update on TNT Express - Lets hope its a direct flight to the UK ( Apple said all batches on iPhones are checked in UK before they are shipped to Ireland )..... Fingers crossed it doesnt need to land at any other destinations first so we can get the phones before monday the 13th...

after you have entered your tracking number and it shows the information .... on the right had side in a orange quick links dialogue box / menu there is an option to "check transit times". You'll need the postal code for Shanghai
