Apple has begun sending out shipment notifications and shipment tracking numbers to UK customers who’ve pre-ordered iPad Wi-Fi + 3G models.
MacDailyNews Take: Britons, your long wait is about to be rewarded!
[Thanks to MacDailyNews Readers too numerous to mention individually for the heads up.]
Thank god the wait is nearly over. Ifell like a kid before Christmas.
So the mass hysteria fanboyism is spreading around the globe now.
It’s time for Google to put a stop to this nonsense.
Haha! Soon I will have mine
Make that Canada as well, email notice recieved on Friday!
Think I’ll suffer and wait for version 2.0.
I now have a TNT International Express tracking code, it says that my iPad is in Shenzhen and delivery will take 3 days.. I somehow doubt that it will be that fast.. but who knows. perhaps they will not hold them till Friday. But I guess that is wishful thinking..
I’m going to wait a few weeks and pick one up at an Apple Store, I kinda want the feeling of buying it in a Store rather than get it delivered…
Canadians are getting shipping confimation emails? I ordered mine on the tenth, and I haven’t got one yet… It’ll still show up on friday, but it would be nice to have a tracking number to compulsively checkcheckcheckdoubletriplecheck.
Hey Thickey!! How did you manage to track it? My tracking number doesnt seem to be working!!
Carrier Tracking Number. What website??
@Chango
I have been using the delivery status widget for the tracking (http://junecloud.com/software/mac/delivery-status.html) but the main info I got from my order screen from Apple (http://twitpic.com/1q2b6p)
And then from TNT (http://cgi.tnt.co.uk/trackntrace/trackntrace.asp) – (http://twitpic.com/1q2bim).
I hope this is some kind of help to ya
A silly question but if you pre order an iPad and an item thats out of stock / 3-4 week wait like the apple case … do apple wait until the case is in stock before sending both or will they send the iPad the the case?
Awwww!! Mine only says Shipped on: May 22, 2010 and the Carrier Tracking Number given by Apple is not working on tnt.co.uk website. Maybe is cause I ordered the iPad case and the dock.
Thanks anyway.
Chango,
so you ordered the case and yours has gone to shipping?
Thats good news ” width=”19″ height=”19″ alt=”grin” style=”border:0;” />
They ship stuff separately, so if you ordered any accessories that are on bak-order, you’ll get your ipad on time, and the accesories as they become available. Good news, eh?
When did you guys order ?
May 10, 2010 at 02:28 PM GMT
And it seems like am getting the case and the dock on the same delivery.
pre ordered 11/5/10 in the A.M but haven’t received a shipping date yet just ‘june’ :-(…
thus why thought maybe the case could hold things up
JP Raadt.. thank you for response seems like it wouldn’t
It’s possible that the UK online apple store is different, but on the reciept page on the Canadian apple store, it says that items will be shipped separately as they become available.
Anyone tracking for TNT International shipments (English version) use the following URL
http://www.tnt.com/webtracker/tracker.do?navigation=1&respLang=en&respCountry=gb
2 Choices..
1) Enter the delivery reference (9 digit number) from your email, make sure the reference number radio button is selected
2) Goto the US Apple site, check your order status which should hopefully have a consignment no (9 digit no), enter this on the TNT tracking page, ensure that the consignment number radio button is checked.
Hope it helps
it said jun 7th for everything apart from the camera connection kit – june ( no date ) for that – so i cancelled it
don’t want it all held up over some silly usb dongle thing do we ?
I ordered mine on the 10th at 7:50am GMT and I still havent received my confirmation it says on my first email that all goods will be shipped once all items are availble and it says all items are availble is there any other way of checking weather or not it has been dispatched?
Peachy — Go to Apple’s online store. Near the bottom of the page is a check order link. Log in to your account and it’ll show your latest orders and item status.
ps My 20¢ SIM card has shipped. ” width=”19″ height=”19″ alt=”smile” style=”border:0;” />
I’ve not received any shipping conformation yet either, now i am getting concerned that because i ordered a case and sim at the same time it might delay the shipping. I did order on the first day and i check the website compulsively. has anyone else who ordered a case with there ipad receive a shipping email yet?
kitch – me neither…..ordered ipad, sim and case on the May 11, 2010 at 09:09 PM GMT ……the order was still in the “early bunch”….. no updates on the shop site yet – and certainly no emails
Hmmm. My Delivery Reference Number and Carrier Tracking Number are identical – but it is a ten digit number and doesn’t seem to work on the TNT site.
AndyC I have the same problem as you. If you log on using the american apple site (store.apple.com) and then order status you will get a different tracking number.
I used that new tracking number and i got this:
Reference F28391703
Pick up date 03 Mar 2010
Destination ATHENS
Delivery Date 09:18, 04 Mar 2010
Signatory DARMAS
Date Time Location Status
04 Mar 2010 09:18:00 Athens Shipment Delivered In Good Condition.
04 Mar 2010 07:18:37 Athens Out For Delivery.
03 Mar 2010 19:39:18 Athens Shipment Held In Warehouse. Follow Up Actions Underway.
03 Mar 2010 15:57:01 Athens Shipment Received At Origin Depot.
Seems like Apple mess up a little bit with the tracking numbers, hehe!!
