Nothing really for them to say at the moment. I just changed my delivery to click and collect due to the horror stories I have heard about the delivery issues. The lady who emailed me back said they are to be in stores on the 11th.

Do you mind me asking what store you chose for click n collect im hoping mine will be available to collect friday morning ! After so many failed and canceled orders i can finally rest easy once its at home haha

People want to change delivery to click and collect. Nothing else has changed from what I gathered.

Thanks. Was hoping to time the Smyths collection with the HN one to save two trips.

Email from Littlewoods telling me that Fastway Couriers have just received it.

Littlewoods wrote:

Hello,

Excited yet?! Your Littlewoods Ireland order has been received by Fastway Couriers, and they're currently sorting it in their hub.

Your order will be delivered to your address within the next 2 working days.

Have a look at your emails because down the bottom of it, it gives you a different tracking number entirely. Currently in Portarlington(Hub)

Open your orders and click the "track parcel" button, mine has has now been updated within the last few minutes and can now be tracked

You quoted me too fast, before I edited it, I guess I tracked it far too fast for my own good, faster than the Fastway servers could update it :pac::pac:

Haha sure I'm the same trying to track it everyday since the order thinking it was too good to be true!

If anyone was in the queue for Gamestop I received an email an hour ago to complete the order and pay the balance. The email went into my Promotions folder in Gmail so could easily be missed!

Her exact email:
Hi (my name),
​
I hope you are keeping well. Thank you for your email. They are due to be dispatched from our stores on the 11th of December. I have emailed the store that is processing your order and I have asked them to change this for you to Click and Collect. If you need anything in the meantime please let us know.
​
Kind regards,
Mia

From the above it seems all stores will be getting the consoles on/or before the 11th.

8349000 and 8349024 for digital.

Argos had some website downtime overnight, but still can't reserve the PS5.

Thanks a million

I think the final pick up day for Argos was Thursday, so on the off chance that some people reserved with zero intentions of collecting one from there might be worth a shot.

MrsMcSteamy

Got a failed authorisation text and email for smyth, updated details and then got collection message for athlone. Going to pick up later.

Any Littlewoods people see any movement on their Fastway Orders this morning/today?

jayo26

Thought for a minute it was upside down but its just reversed like a Selfie.

I put mine in the boot and forgot about it and went round a roundabout(20mtrs away from the shop) and heard the clunk in the boot

Fastway lady delivering across the road, she has nothing for me today. No harm, it's a christmas present. The way she was parked she has no PS5s in that van anyway.(could see into her Berlingo from my desk)

I had put my Smyths PS5 in the boot because I was driving at 8:30am passed a few schools so rush hour. Didn't want the thing on show in the car in case the worst case scenario happened.

Reminds me of when I collected a PS5 in Argos and the staff asked if I needed a bag to wrap it and cover it up. I laughed and said "Why is that? Am I going to get mugged if I walk out the door with this on show?"

None of them laughed.

Waiting on delivery from Smyths, pending charge appeared on my Online Banking this morning, no email from them yet. Not too bothered at this stage. They said by the 19th on their website, it will be here a few days before then.

For anybody collecting from Harvey Norman, they will be sending emails throughout the day to let you know when the console is ready to collect. They are spreading them out to avoid huge numbers of people gathering at once. It sounds like there is no point going in early or you will be sent away and told to return later.

Edit: I should say this is happening tomorrow! I wouldn't expect anything today unless you get extremely lucky.
