Never mind...just went onto the US site and checked my order and it says it is being delivered by UPS, but when I go onto the UPS site to enter my tracking number it doesn't recognise the number...

You may want to try FedEx. All my Apple orders were handled by them.

US orders are being handled by FedEx. It looks like UK orders are being handled by TNT and UPS.

This is due to all the shipped items left China on pallets, so orders assigned dummy refs.
The individual tracking numbers will only come available in the next couple of days when they hit UK shores.

Odd that Fedex has no trouble giving me a real tracking number for my order to Canada, which left China and also was presumably on a pallet.

All UK orders are being shipped by TNT and UPS only.
