Yeah that’s what it says in the second email. Don’t know why tho.

Launch PR stunt for PS5 in London - they replaced all the underground signs with symbols. XBox launch was as quiet as its cooling fan

Meanwhile we got graffiti on a wall where the artist's TikTok video was reposted on Reddit. We clearly got the leftover change from the UK's marketing budget.

Starting to worry about HN now. 3rd email still hasn't arrived, and it's not in my spam folder.

Me either. I ordered a digital one, which one did you order.

I have received confirmation of my Littlewoods order now by email and I'm still waiting on my Harvey Norman Digital payment path as well.

PS5s today have been like buses.

Littlewoods 19/11 ordered PS5 just arrived and when I say arrived, I mean it was left downstairs in the apartment complex where I live with the front door open, and zero communication between the courier and myself, even by phone.

That being said, it's actually here now.

Beyond unacceptable. Glad to hear you have it in your hands.

I just got this email from Harvey Norman customer service after asking where my payment link was for my Digital PS5 this morn.

What's the earliest date people have from Argos? I'm curious to see if people start getting confirmation it's ready to be picked up.

At least 1 person got theirs this morning.

So I still haven't received my littlewoods refund. Presumed it was because I was tsb but I rang them and they said the refund didn't go through because of a 'glitch' in their system. They did it manually and said it would take another 2/3 days.

Seem to be having a lot of glitches in their system lately..

If anyone doesn't want theirs digital if possible ill gladly take a reservation.

I think there's 2-3 from what I've seen but that's stock that was in the store already. Just curious to see if they'll manage to fulfill all the orders with a reservation number. If people start getting texts from X date I'll be a bit more confident.

Do you mind me asking when you preordered?

I got the same and mine was 25th August

With Argos reservations do you definitely have to wait for the email/text it's in stock or go in the first day on the potential stock day.

Mine is 5th-7th. I could go down on the 5th and sure it might not arrive til the 7th. They'll text you when it's ready.

13th September

Getting way ahead of myself but who generally delivers for Littlewoods. Their website lists a good few from DHL, Parcel Motel, Nightline, An Post, Parcel Connect and then of course Fastway. As you can see from the list they gradually get worse from left to right.

Who delivered the consoles recently for Harvey Norman as well?

I think they way Argos works is its available from the 5th till COB on the 7th?
Pretty sure thats how it works from "normal" orders.

I've seen a lot of people here saying Fastway, which is worrying.

Ah, I misread the emails. You're right. That's the time it's held for the reservation.

Berty

I've mixed feelings about Fastway, they're pretty early to me and I've sent stuff with them as well. At this time of the year they have random people in cars and vans delivering. Recently, now that I think of it, it's a woman in a small berlingo delivering as the lad across the way orders stuff like it's a sport. I haven't seen her fling parcels around the road, van or people's driveways anyway so that is a plus

Berty

Question for those who completed their Harvey Purchase?

What was your process to complete the orders? I have offered mine to a boardsie as I got the Littlewoods Disc instead of the HN Digital. Is it a generic link(like a code you don't obviously share publically) or tied to your Harvey Norman account?

No way Berty im chasing and chasing let down by gamestop am on verge of paying about 900 on ebay
