    At least they let you know!

    I had ordered 4 games for delivery yesterday evening. When there was no sign of the delivery, I checked the status online & it was showing as "delivered".

    I rang customer service this morning and was told that the store said "there was a problem with your card". I asked what sort of problem as I've had no issues with my card anywhere else and was told that was all the information he had.

    Strange for them not to contact me if there was a legit issue with the card!

    no stock left in newbridge, kildare town, portlaois has couple of the darkness 2 left but thats it hope this helps save people the journey :)

    You would have saved yourself a lot of hassle and lots of dosh on travel expenses to just have bought the games online on amazon for example :confused:

    You must have spent upwards of €50 just driving around to all those stores looking for the games.

    Maybe he just called the stores.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,797 ✭✭✭sweetie


    Or is a travelling salesman. Fair play for letting people know

    Just received my online order there, out of 21 ordered I received 3.

    Got GOW3, Silent Hill HD Collection and MW2.

    Still though, happy out with them :)

    Was in kinnegad today. Picked up Nintendo dogs 3ds €5, sims 3 ps3 €1, dead island riptide ps3 €5, hit man trilogy hd ps3 €5, prof Layton 3ds €2. All in the security clear boxes with just the covers photocopied. (Who's gonna steal empty boxes?) Price tags were marked down for the sale. Took them to pay. They had none to give me. All out of stock. Not even a sorry.
    Anyone got a new dead island riptide on ps3 or Xbox they wanna sell for the tesco price?

    thanks OP , popped into Tesco Douglas earlier , had €20 in my pocket ,was looking to pick up some cheap games for myself and the kids for the Christmas xbox , got Carnival games , XMen Destiny ,Star Wars III Clone Wars and Battelship , all a fiver each , I think i got the last copy of a few of those. There was about 50 GOW3 left though ! , will go back for that, Clone Wars looks like a fantastic deal for a fiver
    I nearly missed the stand though , only stumbled upon it on the way out between security and the self service area

    Bought 4 3ds games and 2 Xbox 360 games online, will see what arrives tomorrow. If even one is cancelled il annoy the **** out of their customer service cause I tried to order more and they had no stock!! Called to tesco Polberry on the off chance that they had more titles-- which was always a terrible store historically and they only had Mw2 and a few random wii games. They had a truck load of back catalogue games which were 30 euro plus but no real discount section.

    Our entire order was cancelled, phone call just as we were about to go and collect it. Apparently it was a mistake that they were online at all.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,074 ✭✭✭skimpydoo


    Managed to order Nintendo DS Lite for delivery Thursday morning. Got it for 20 euro plus 5 euro delivery. I hope I get it.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,126 ✭✭✭✭calex71


    Tesco Extra in drogheda had a tonne of Gears of War 3 (xbox) and Battlefield 3 (ps3) for €5, not much else though.

    Second online order cancelled again. This time ordered through my mum's account and yet they still claimed "card issues". When questioned about what kind of issues, they went away for a minute and came back saying "actually sorry we don't have them in stock"!

    Ah well!!

    There is a few Gears of War 3 left in Tesco Cabra


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 54 ✭✭SilentHunter


    Picked up Lost Planet 3 and GoW: Judgment for a fiver each in tesco crescent and Kirby at Roxboro. Judgment was not marked and it was at the normal game section. I asked for a price check to see how much it was since I saw it for €5 online and it price checked at €5.

    If you want to get the game there is one copy left.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 582 ✭✭✭HJL


    Nothing in Letterkenny that I saw, handful of DVDs for €5 but no games.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,141 ✭✭✭✭TheDoc


    No email notification of any cancelation, so I assume my Ds games are coming


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,141 ✭✭✭✭TheDoc


    Order showing as delivered....no sign

    My order for Nintendo DS Lite was supposed to arrive this morning and it didn't. I checked online and they said it was delivered. I rang them up 20 minutes ago and they claimed there was card issues and would I like to reschedule for tomorrow morning. Why can't they just say no stock rather than lie and state card issues.

    Call up customer service 1850744844 and ask for groceries. I bet you will be told there was card issues.

    lol, rang an English number from the site, call got cut off buy lad said he would just check to see what the story was, that he say some more details on his screen that looks like it was succesfull picked and out for delivery, might be running slightly late


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,141 ✭✭✭✭TheDoc


    Rang back and got through to someone else.

    Seems the items are out of stock, and order is cancelled lol. "Delivered" means they just received my order. How stupidly confusing. Other fella must have been confused and looked at another order I did actually receive.

    Pity, two pokemon games for a tenner was decent value. Leaving it at that, not bothering going hunting in shops for them or anything. If anyone gets a copy of Pokemon black and white for Ds they dont want give me a shout
