I *really* don’t like UPS!!!

After playing games with the shipping information, I followed along earlier today.  Really didn’t have my hopes up before this morning.

When I saw the iPad in Anchorage, I thought I might have a chance to snag it today.  My fear was I would try to out guess UPS and sit at the office all day waiting, when they had no intention of showing because they “knew” the office was closed on Saturday.

However, I watched closely, looking for “news” that it was on the truck for delivery, just like (my favorite) FedEx does.  Well, when it didn’t show for a few hours I stood down from making a quick run to the office. I really quit watching the status and settled back to read reviews and get ready for Monday.  Well, wouldn’t you know it, there was an attempt today!  No word it was on the truck or anything.  That was at 13:29…

Missed my iPad, since the office was closed.

So, after about ten minutes trying to find a phone number (they really don’t want you to call) I finally found one.  Surprisingly it answered right away and there was no hold. (I guess it is Saturday, and they really make it difficult to even find a number, so that probably isn’t surprising after all; they don’t have many callers.)

Spoke to a nice agent who offered to look up the tracking info and let me know if the “2nd attempt” would be today (Saturday) or next business day, Monday. The latter was my guess, and that was confirmed.

Oh well, back to reading the reviews and finding out what others think of theirs… Looking forward to Monday once again.
