Well my order didn't change status to 'shipped' until around 6pm. I remember ordering from them before and there being a later shipment on the same day. Either way it's going to arrive quicker than one from Nokia.
The quickest order I've ever received was from Dabs. Ordered at 8:45pm and it arrived 10am next day!
Yeah, Dabs are really good for deliveries.
Scan are another one. They send you a text when they ship your order.
How about this for customer service, pre-order The Sims 3 from Play.com, and it arrived a day before release!
Swapped my broadband provider from PlusNet to Be. Requires a BT bod to go to the exchange to swap a cable.
They said 18th June.
Today, guess what happened? Yup, exactly what they promised.
Scan.co.uk, Expansys.co.uk - Problem with the credit card? They advised me, allowed me to call Barclaycard, and they resubmitted the order.
Nokia are a joke and a laughing stock. I just hope that the phone is better than their store! I have never evern come across a more inadequately run, inept, useless operation as the Nokia shop.
I'd never ordered from them before but I'm pretty sure I won't order from them again. When I called to cancel my order she asked why. I told her expansys had the N97 in stock and would deliver next day, and she said I was the second person she'd spoken to today that had said that. Not surprising really.
Remember that although you lost your �75 discount you will get �30 of expansys vouchers so that's something a little more positive.
That's true. Im also making a formal complaint to Nokia (2nd one) and asking for some kind of compensation. Hell, even if it's only like a free case, or a free charger, something free... Perhaps a 16 Gig Micro SD Card, or �75 voucher for the Nokia online shop
Erm, scratch the last five words

I'm with o2... I thought they bought out Be. But I know exactly what you mean. I used to work at Orange Broadband Technical Support, and I knew for a fact that when an LLU line is setup, it takes a whole extra week from the date promised to set it up. My brother realised this himself through experience.

Is it really lost though? I don't know much about Quidco, granted, but surely you could get the discount from other items through them.

[/QUOTE[Actually, Telefonica bought Be. Telefonica already own O2. So the O2 network rides on the Be network technically.
So I have got an LLU line now with Be, upto 24 Meg (16 Meg at the mo) and actioned within a week.

I could buy other items, but those are other items that I would have had the discount on, on top of the �75. So yeah, I do consider the �75 lost.

Well, I was half right... almost...ish 😉

Good point. Still, here's hoping your phone arrives today and it'll be �75 well spent 😊
Just an update my N97 black from Expansys has just arrived and is now charging. And contarty to the bulls*ht from the guy at Nokia it is a full uk version not a grey import
One thing of note you dont get the �30 voucher in the box, I rang Expansys and the lady says they are sent a code via email 14 days later
Did you get the stylus and �20 OVI/Music voucher in yours?
Cheers
Simon

My N97 arrived at 7am this morning. I'm glad I wasn't the only one with no vouchers. Saves me a call to expansys. 😊
