Where can you see the gps tracking of the van?

If you download the app. Now I'm logged in with my PW details. Click deliveries, and it should give a 'van location' button at the bottom.

Haven't called me back yet but it's back to saying available later today instead of available now. Hoping thsts a good sign...

Got thought to them again and apparently he left the wrong package off and will leave it there by the end of the day. Still a bit anxious though because according to the people in the pick up point there were no packages but the first person at DPD I spoke to said the driver left several packages there.

Fairly pissed off that I wasted the time driving there too tbh, only 15 minutes each way but I could have been doing something more useful.

Amazon order just delivered by Amazon courier. Dublin area. Glad I changed from PM.

Sister in law was collecting one at Smyths Naas and some pour soul was bringing his back, she said the poor chap was devastated. No clue what was wrong with it but it was the disc version and they told him they would have replacements in 3-4 days

That was good on Smyth very good company to deal with hopefully he get sorted quickly.

Come on Leo, put me out of my misery here. Past the 1 hour window. Van location has moved twice in an hour & he's further away than the first location. :eek:

Wonder is it the same Leo who sold me a PS5 in a car park there about an hour ago for 700 quid on the long mile road?

DPD?

I've moved on to the PS5 thread like I've finally left limbo but just wanted to +1 Smyths. They've been as efficient as can be. Even queuing up at Childers road Limerick this morning, 6 people in front of me, a guy came out asking if anyone was getting a ps5. To my shock, i was the only one. They beckoned me to the front of the queue like the golden child where they had a little PS5 desk setup inside the door. Outta my way peasants! Took me all of 30 seconds. All hail Smyths!

Exact same thing happened to me there, very well organised.

Am I the only one not to get a confirmation from GS about payment and shipping of disc version?!

Anyone else still waiting?

It's arrived!

My Digital Edition from GameStop is coming with An Post, been sorted since 11am yesterday in Dublin Parcel Hub, no sign of movement since. Friend in the same situation.

It'll probably be delivery tomorrow at this stage. One of mine had it's label created yesterday at 9:47 and there's no progress on the UPS page.
Still setting up the one that arrived. I really hope yee get the consoles today, I'll *touch wood for yee.

Ran in to a bit of a bug (I hope), I started installing games from disc and noticed after the third install
(including updates/patches), as soon as I took the disc out, the games vanished off the system completely.

So what I've done and seems to be working, so far! Is after each one installs I open the game before I remove the disc.
That seems to have fixed it, up to now. I'm about 6 installs in at this stage. Just in case anyone else has the same issue.

Got mine sorted, the rest of ye on the same van can rest easy!

Got through to a Prashant on DPD livechat who advised 'driver must be running behind schedule'. Well I know that

Fecking Amazon, ordered on the 17th of Sept, changed the address from parcel motel to my Irish address over the weekend... Still waiting for dispatch confirmation :S

My Amazon pre-order was delivered to Parcel Motel NI a couple of hours ago. I didn't update it to an Irish address as Amazon said it was estimated to be 21-24th.

Would have been nice if they had clearly stated in the emails they sent out that you could update to an Irish address and would likely have release date delivery. I didn't change it on the basis I'd rather likely have it Friday, than risk not having it for the weekend.

Now hoping that it reaches the Parcel Motel depot overnight and will be ready for collection tomorrow. I'm a bit sorry I went with Amazon over Smyths. Also made a wrong decision not changing to Irish address over Parcel Motel.

Hope those of you waiting on delivery will get it shortly!

Just got a notification it's arrived in the depot in Dublin. It only arrived in NI about 3 hours ago. They just need to carry it across the floor to the oversized parcel pick up and hopefully I should get a text shortly.

I regret noooooooooooooothing.

Lads my dpd says “Parcel delivery date booked with recipient”

I didnt book anything, im starting to get worried.

jayjay2010

My DPD parcel is still “passing through DPD network”. No text message or anything else about delivery.

Realistically will I receive it today? I’m in D6W

Smyths +ups
tracking says delivery tomorrow called to see if I could collect it from their depot as I pass it on the way home from work, and they told me it’s on the van for delivery today. That was this morning and my tracking still says it has not left the depot and is expected tomorrow not hopeful

Did you ring the local depot? Mine sorted me out, took a couple of calls mind.
