Blah, it's all going a bit pear shaped now.

I've been called into work tomorrow, and I was due for home delivery by DPD.

O2 can't help me, because the item has left their hands now.

DPD can't help me, because their automated phone system seems incapable of putting me through to a human and it's too late in the day to send them an email and expect a response.

Worse of all is, the guy from O2 told me that I will "most probably get it tomorrow". What's this 'most probably'? When I ordered it said delivery on the 22nd :-/

So now I gotta juggle the phone delivery, work, and also the guy who's coming over tomorrow to buy my 7+. Fun times.
 
Why do you regret it?
Price or you don't like the phone?

I forgot how bad the phone lagged and performed when I had an S6 and the same thing happened with my S8, loved the screen and design though but too much a fan of stock android.

Cant you arrange it for Saturday delivery with DPD at your home if your there?

Not Saturday, no. After tomorrow, the next available day is Monday.
 
According to apple mins being delivered by UK Mail which I'm not impressed with, but the tracking number doesn't seem to be working yet. Same for everyone else?
 
DPD tracking number has just started working for me. Nothing special just telling me it's coming tomorrow.
 
Just order my 8+ from my local EE store and will be picking it up at 8:01 in the morning (hopefully)
 
Anyone on here preorder with Three? Was told it would be with me tomorrow guaranteed but haven’t had anything than a couple of texts since.
There’s also no way to track the order, as it’s a preorder, until I receive a text from DPD who are their delivery partners.
 
I am. The only thing I can do with regards to changing the delivery is changing the day. I can't change the address, I can't request to leave it with a neighbour, I can't request a time. It's either gonna come tomorrow or Monday.

Damn work. It's all their fault :mad:
That's strange. On my DPD tracking it gives me all of those options: leave with neighbour, collect from pickup shop and change the day to a Saturday. I'm using their site.
 
Just spoke to Carphone Warehouse and they informed me that “iphone” had emailed them and there’s a delay....

Quelle surprise!! Clever 'iPhone' emailing them though..........must have been an X ;-)


Told ya to ask!!

Oh wow
Damn
I really hope I don't have the same problem with the note 8
Why you paying £60 for the S8. That's expensive....didn't you get discount?

Pretty sure Apple have pretty strict restrictions with the couriers which don’t let them deliver to a neighbour or leave in a safe place. Has to be signed by someone at the delivery address IIRC

I got it the second it came out and even though as I was an existing Vodafone customer they absolutely refused to budge on price.

For me it was the scrolling performance, it had dropped frames everywhere, the ui animation was no where near as fluid as it should be and even dropping down from QHD to FHD made no difference.

However some apps the performance was buttery smooth, worst ones google+ in fact anything google!
