Hmm, time window from UK Mail of 15:30-16:30. That’s what you get for living in the ‘burbs ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
And they still didn’t have any stock so the app is a true reflection of what there is available I guess.
Well, this is weird...my phone from EE and watch from Apple have just arrived 3 minutes earlier than the scheduled time from DPD. The guy is saying he can’t deliver it until the scheduled time, showed me a count down timer, and said he’d wait outside until it’s 9.26.....
Unbelievable !
Unbelievable !
It's good that they have to keep to their windows though. If they tried to deliver slightly early and you were just around the corner about to get home but missed it then that'd be frustrating!
Just spoke to Currys PC World and cancelled my order as it went to 'On Hold' status last night. It was supposed to be delivered today.
The explanation was that "We didn't receive enough stock to fulfil all the preorders." When I asked why I didn't receive an email about this or any change in the order status their response was "Yeah, I'm sorry."
Now reordered from Very with delivery (supposedly) tomorrow.

Bloody JL!!! I had the SS (2 available), in my basket, chose collection, went through to PayPal, then it crashed out saying there was a problem with the basket... Wasn't meant to be obviously!
Yeah it was a nightmare with the same thing last year. They did get stock pop up during the day so might be worth keeping an eye out
Same. Suspect their systems are buckling under the pressure!
Edit: Just as I posted I have a 11 to 12 window
I have been given a window of 15:30 - 16:30. When I checked about an hour ago I was stop number 66 and the driver was at number 1.
Just checked again and I am still number 66 but the driver is at stop 60 !!?
If that is really true (60 deliveries in 1 hour) then the guy must be throwing the packages out of the window as he drives past the addresses at top speed...
Haven't received mine yet either, which usually means an afternoon delivery with DPD for me!!
Yep they are definitely buckling under pressure!! Either that or they've lost mine!
I’m exactly the same. Suspect their systems are having difficulty from all the fanboys refreshing!
Estimated delivery of 3:50-4:50
IT'S HAPPENING!! Come on Andy you can do this!

Oh dear, you have Andy.... Good luck with that!
Blooming* UK mail! My Max is coming via DPD for mid afternoon to the office and UK Mail has now confirmed delivery between 6pm and 7pm to my office... I've been here since 8am hoping they'll both arrive early so I can rush home at 4pm
*The actual word is significantly worse than "blooming".

Eek, sorry, I didn't manage to check stock on that one — I was told they were pretty low on the stainless steel, especially the gold colour (40mm only with the Milanese Loop, for example), but didn't see the aluminium. The staff outside can check stock before you join the queue and reserve one if they have it though.
