    How can you order it online do you know? it won't let be when it's out of stock?
    He said it takes about a week for the website to be updated when a phone is out of stock. You can go through the order process online but I would guess you'll get a call/email cancelling your order next week.

    I've had those earphones or at least similar before and they're very good, can break very easily though which is a worry and I mainly listened to hip hop with them, have Klipsch ones for if I'm listening to rock or anything else so doesn't really bother me, the earphones are a very welcome addition in this pack and better than pretty much any other earphones you can hope to get bundled in with a phone.

    In fairness a plastic cup and a string would be better than most bundled earphones. Good to know you're happy with them. My point was simply don't overvalue the deal because of the phones.

    Without wanting to derail the thread - would it be pretty easy to get vanilla ICS on these boys or even CyanogenMod ?
    Are HTC planning to jelly bean 'em ?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,726 ✭✭✭gerryk


    Not vanilla, but there is a stable CM9 (ICS) build for XE, and a nightly of CM10 too -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1782009

    Tried twice this morning even when it said it was in stock. Kept giving me an error. Got pissed off and gave up.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 30,421 ✭✭✭✭Ghost Train


    Tried at lunch time, why do they make you go through the whole ordering process only to tell you "Not in stock, remove the phone" or something like that


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 18,056 ✭✭✭✭BostonB


    They break the O2 site so often, I can only assume they think its funny.

    Any confirmation mails from those who got orders in ?
    Mine says "Pending ..." - won't be any movement till Monday I suspect ?

    Mine still says the same too. I wish they would let us know sooner rather than later whether the order is going through.

    Have anyone got an email confirmation yet?

    not sure if anyone noticed.. HTC Desire S is also free on 6 month contract (Although I dunno how well it compare with HTC Sensation XE - performance wise)

    http://www.o2online.ie/o2/shop/phones/htc-desire-s-blue-special-offer/133/

    Also, I don't think anyone mentioned this yet.. if someone happen to be on O2 already and will be buying a phone that cost some amount (Any amount), there is an offer on Priority Moment that give you 20% off during weekend, might be worth checking it out too.

    I think that Priority Moment offer runs from Thur-Sun.

    Just received a message as well.
    Need to sent in cc statement and proof of id.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,983 ✭✭✭Tea_Bag


    I can get all the way to the checkout stage after entering in my bank details and sexual activities, and then it just says "error, we cannot sign you up at this stage".

    tried it a few times.. :mad::mad::mad::mad:

  • Registered Users Posts: 237 ✭✭M007


    Is the deal ony available online or is the phone avaiable in stores?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,234 ✭✭✭Fresh Pots


    Mine is Pending! Also missed a call from a blocked number at the same time. Anybody else get a call from 02?

    I checked car phone warehouse in liffey vally and o2 in longford and they had none in stock, you'd have to find somewhere with stock! Didn't bother confirming the deal was available in the stores as they'd no phones!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,396 ✭✭✭lindtee


    Have heard nothing from o2 :( Order still down as pending on the site. Really, really annoys me when companies take so long to confirm or deny a deal.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,473 ✭✭✭✭Liam O


    OK so I'm just out a chat with O2 there, what they have neglected to mention is that I now have to fax them a copy of my Student ID, Credit Card bill and proof of ID, now to find somewhere that still uses fax :rolleyes: They wont even accept Email scans.

    oh yeah and it has to be within 5 days or else the order is cancelled...

    yeah was more pissed off I couldn't just send them an email scan and I don't have a fax machine :p

    Still seems an archaic way of collecting documents and they could have emailed me on Friday to say this.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,862 ✭✭✭✭inforfun


    Fax is a legal document.
    Email not so much.

    Pretty sure it is for legal reasons.

  • Registered Users Posts: 182 ✭✭fugee


    Surely there is place for sending a fax from online. From googling there a few free ones, but no idea which is best/reputable

    Anyone?


  • Registered Users Posts: 137 ✭✭Eoin087


    Lads whats the story with faxing the id and cc statement? Do I just show up at an internet cafe type place with my passport (does this need to be photocopied first?) and cc statement and ask the person behind the counter to fax it for me or how does it work?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,234 ✭✭✭Fresh Pots


    So did anyone get to the phone this morning when 02 rang? If so, what did they say? Are our sales going to be given the go ahead or cancelled?

    Same system, one channel to host a range of services including telecommunications.

    The "Digital" network referred to has not been launched yet. Once it has been rolled out users can connect to it, giving a higher range of services through its routing.

    The explanation you have given is technical and correct:)

    My reasoning for using the words "Digital TV", is reference to the launching of the network. Once launched, it will open up opportunities for telecoms to connect to it and harness the capabilities and frequencies which it uses.

    My point also is that with the Three/Vodafone merger, both infastructures of networs will be shared, thus connecting as one user, giving higher speeds and services than currently.

    Do people a favour and don't offer any more incorrect advice. You clearly don't know what you're talking about.


  • Registered Users Posts: 188 ✭✭conormccarthy92


    anyone have any advice for me re the credit card statement ? I used a debit card and currently do not have a credit card ... Also the email says i need to fax them within 5 days or my card will be refunded but I checked my bank balance and it hasnt been deducted yet?

    Any help appreciated!

    Debit card should be OK I would have thought - if it's just a proof of address document.

    As for the faxing if it's a hassle I'd bring it in to an O2 shop and make them send it


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,833 ✭✭✭mp3ireland2


    Just ordred one there! wonder what are the chances of getting it! woudln't work earlier or on Friday. Fingers crossed! Thanks OP!

    I'm trying to order one but getting an error:
    "Unfortunately we are currently unable to process your transaction. Please try again later."

    When did you order yours?

    Thanks, I'll give it another try later on.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,983 ✭✭✭Tea_Bag


    Tried an hour ago a few times, and got the same error. tried it twice just now, and on the second time it went through! :)

    its now in "pending" status.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,473 ✭✭✭Roddy23


    Managed to get mine through too. All morning long I had been told to please try again later. Hopefully it goes through all the way as it looks like a great deal.

    Sensation XE twice as good as that phone!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,833 ✭✭✭mp3ireland2


    Are bill phones unlocked when you get them? If not are these easy to unlock does anybody know? I assume we can just get o2 to do it after the 6 months anyway?

    You can request the code straight away if you want with O2. You're under contract anyway.

    If you are trying to set up a prepaid card as a method of payment I doubt they would let you, as they would require a reliable method of payment
