    SG14199264534143 Shipment Details
    07-Jan-2015 09:27 AM Departed Warehouse to Sort Facility.
    07-Jan-2015 01:10 PM Shipment picked up.
    08-Jan-2015 09:27 AM Departed Sort Facility to IRELAND

    No update since.
    Looks like it may be going overland - could be ages...

    Ten days (dec 27 - jan 7) to just dispatch it is very poor.

    I think you might be expecting too much. Slow shipping and slow service is generally the way these cheap Chinese sites work.

    I think you might be expecting too much. Slow shipping and slow service is generally the way these cheap Chinese sites work.

    in fairness some of them e.g. fasttech are quite decent these days -> let you know on each item if it's in stock or when it would dispatch if not in stock. If in stock dispatches in 2 days. you'd have it in 2 weeks or less overall with singpost.

    so I'm not expecting too much in that some of the sites are a lot better than my experience with this crowd.

    If you used NL post option I dont think it shows up until it arrives in Holland.You will have it within 3 weeks.

    Great thanks! Yeah it does say NL post on it.

    Ordered mine on 27th Dec and choose NL post. Dispatched with a tracking number on 31st. The number didn't appear on the NL tarcking site until the 8th of Jan and then only as pre-advised. Seems to have arrived in NL this morning. hopefully will have it by friday but i guess monday is more likely.

    Mine was only dispatched on the 2nd via same method. Doesn't help I'm the more impatient person in the world.

    Did you get any contact from customs?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,330 ✭✭✭Gran Hermano


    Customs shouldn't be an issue if you paid the going price and regular postage, well under 23 EUR. The item description on package may have them suspect it's more expensive. If they contact you looking for payment email them a link to the item on the website and a copy of PayPal receipt.

    No correspondence from them yet but hopefully they'll see it and just send it one it's way then as it's definitely under their €23 threshold.

    Yeah I had to do the same only a few weeks ago when I ordered a phone from China.

    Had to wait 6 days before when tracking said sent to Customs to where I deceived the letter in the post and it was released.

    Hopefully I won't have to wait that long this time!

    Just got the letter saying it's at Customs so I've emailed off the purchase details.

    I hope they don't think I'm lying about the >€15 value!


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,659 ✭✭✭PowerHouseDan

    Mine took 18 days with NL post but that included the 3 bank holidays over Xmas.Dunno if that would have made much difference .


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 5,575 ✭✭✭AlanS181824


    Expecting delivery of this tomorrow and I can't wait.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,330 ✭✭✭Gran Hermano


    Battery life is amazing.
    Charged mine 31/12 and showing 60% battery remaining.
    Makes it easier to track your sleep if not having to charge every second night like other bands.

    Mine activates notifications for missed/incoming calls, new SMS or hangout and also when activity goals met. Also use the alarm feature daily. Paired 24/7 to my OP one via Bluetooth and no impact on either battery.

    On Route To Customer.... C'mon c'mon!

    I actually can't wait to get it and run up and down the house like a lunatic just to test its accuracy!:pac:


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,792 ✭✭✭BionicRasher


    Mine was 'On Route to Customer' but is now showing the following
    Fri Jan 16 2015 - 09:51 Shipment at customs

    What do I need to do to see the status now and how do I get the parcel from customs?

    (BTW - I purchased 2 MiBands - one for me and one for my missus. Total cost was €32.76)

    I'm fairly sure customs will send you a letter looking for a receipt showing the value of the item.

    School boy error. Two separate orders would have saved you the customs delay/charge.
