I bought a new Apple TV remote off apple store app, apparently it got delivered to my house today I know nobody was home because my grandfather passed away last night and my entire family was at church I called ups and they told me to contact apple regarding not receiving my package. Funny thing is someone signed writing only JAL but I always sign my full name how do I contact apple regarding not recieving it?

*then

Did you tell UPS that you didn't receive your package? Or did you tell them that someone else signed for it? Again, Apple isn't responsible for someone signing for your package from UPS at your home, and unless they just make an exception (which is very possible seeing as their customer service is 2nd to none), you might be SOL.

Easy I know your upset and sorry for your loss family and package

UPS is responsible if someone signed for the package they should know who that person is I would contact them again and get to the bottom of this

In the mean time if you have an iPhone download the Remote app and use it to control your Apple TV

I would also talk to UPS- Most neighborhoods have the same driver and they can probably shed some light on where it is- also maybe check with neighbors- possibly someone else signed for you

Sorry for your loss.

If someone signed for the package and it wasn't you then it's on UPS.

Apple just sticks a label on it and sends it.

What do you think could have happened? Was someone waiting in front of your house and said they live their? Was it a stranger? How did they know to sign even a abbreviation of your name? If it was a stranger.

They said to contact apple than apple contacts ups and than ups will investigate

First of all, sorry to hear of your loss.

You bought the item from Apple. Apple contracted with UPS to deliver the product. All requests for investigation have to come from the carrier (UPS) customer (Apple). Contact Apple and explain what happened. Explain that you believe that someone fraudulently intercepted your delivery and ask them to investigate.

I'm glad everything worked out for you. I think it was actually smart of him to hide the package so nobody steals it.

So everything worked out and here is a thread that went way too far. There is a valuble lesson here even though you could not help being home because of your family loss which I feel bad for you about...From now on set alternative arrangements should you might not be home. I always have things like that sent to my office and not my house unless I know I am going to be home.
