Nook Touch Simple eReader - €40 [Via Littlewoods]

If I accept an offer from Flubit for a Nook are they guaranteed to deliver?

Or are they likely to turn around in a few days and say that they can't source it?

They won't guarantee it at all, it's totally down to the supplier, they get you a good price that's about it.

I had one ordered through flubit too but am trying to cancel as they put my demand through AsdaDirect but it showed no update either for the last few days.
I saw online yesterday luckily enough that AsdaDirect got stock back in so I phoned them directly myself and managed to get one there and then yesterday, shipped five minutes after my call!! Flubit still not updated or contacted me about my request to cancel.

How on earth could it take them 4 days to deliver from Tamworth to Newtownabbey?! Is UPS using walking porters these days?

mine has been sitting in Newtownabbey with UPS since friday morning, and expected delivery is tomorrow. How on earth does it take 5 days to get from Newtownabbey to Newtownabbey?!

Anyone had their flubit offer dispatched yet?

Finally an update on my tracking, not sure whether to start worrying.
The little green tick is back next to the van now though.

I'm getting a weird error in the Flubit - Paypal Pop out. It's telling me there's an error "Error: Unknown Credit Card 98237324",
I logged into my paypal, and the correct card is attached to my account. Also, when i try to add that card from inside the pop out, it tells me that card is already attached to my account..
My card is an O2 Debit card, which i presume is causing the problem?

Anyone else have this problem?

Also Nook UK have still not refunded my money for the order they cancelled.. 5 days ago..

The amount of cráp i am doing to try and get this thing..

I got an offer from flubit this morning, well 2 actually. One for my "Very" (littlewoods) demand, and one for John Lewis. John Lewis came in €3 cheaper.

loyatemu · 07-05-2013 02:56PM

I'm seeing the "incorrect depot" message as well - WTF is going on at Littlewoods, or are they just stringing us along while they wait for stock?

Celly Smunt · 07-05-2013 03:01PM

New comment on my order

"Route HAT2049 Small sorter"

whatever that means.

The couldn't decide which house to put it in so they've asked the sorting hat

Celly Smunt · 07-05-2013 03:10PM

And this lovely e-mail

Maybe if my nook wasn't sitting in a basket in the middle of hertfordshire i'd be able to enjoy it,at this moment though you can stick your 10% up your hole.

Anybody have an update on littlewoods. I ordered on the 1st and it says being processed in warehouse since then! Nobody get any update over the weekend??

Mine is the same and I've emailed a couple times and they just said sorry that your order has been delayed if you don't receive it by may 20 contact us

Me too even though they sent me an email this morning saying they hoped I was enjoying my new purchase. Well, I would be if it wasn't stuck in your bleedin' warehouse!!

Still, once I actually get it, I don't mind if it takes a while.

Littlewoods - muppets. Putting up BS incorrect depot messages - for what reason....? Probably don't have it in stock at all. According to them the item has now been dispatched twice to incorrect depot. Fcukwits. Doubtful that this will ever be received.

I'd imagine they'll keep us swinging until the latest delivery date and give us a "sorry but we have to cancel your order" e-mail.If they don't have them i wish they'd just bloody let us know rather than giving people the run about.

NicsM · 07-05-2013 03:40PM

Mine is still saying processed but not dispatched from Littlewoods-ordered last Wednesday.

I'm guessing they won't have the stock and expecting it to be cancelled. Oh well.

paultf · 07-05-2013 04:07PM

Got an offer from Flubit from currys for £25.38 - free delivery to NI and I have a free credit on Parcel Motel.

Emailed Flubit for guarantee of delivery - told that item was in stock now.

Rang Littlewoods to cancel - told order might still go through - Fastway delivery and to decline at door.

Order has been processed by Flubit, payment accepted and order ready for dispatch.

If this comes off I'll save around €10 compared to LWs. Am I wishful thinking?

Raphael · 07-05-2013 04:10PM

My order from Littlewood spent the long weekend in BOREHAMWOOD DEPOT. Hope the weather was nice there.

MurdyWurdy · 07-05-2013 04:12PM

No update to my Littlewoods tracking, it still just says despatched on the 2nd May and then on again on the 3rd May with no further information. It's weird, hoping it will get randomly updated soon!

randombar · 07-05-2013 04:20PM

Anyone any joy with ordering from nook.co.uk

Got the scheduled to ship email but not the confirmation of shipment email.

I'm in the same boat. I ordered early on the 1st, got the "scheduled to ship" email that afternoon, but nothing since.

I'm getting pretty annoyed that they won't either A) ship it,

cancel the order, or C) at least let me know that there's a delay and it will ship at some point.

chasm · 07-05-2013 04:32PM

I emailed littlewoods too as my nook got sent to the same depot twice apparently, so the same reply as others here too.

Thank god i got my sister to pick up one for me in currys Uk just before she went on her holidays!

Just got another reply from them, after i complained about it being sent to the wrong depot twice, to say it has been sent to the specialist dept. I queried whether it was in stock or not - will see what response i get now!

at least tell me when it's going to arrive because the date of 10th May is highly unlikely at this stage

jarvis_c82 · 07-05-2013 04:40PM

Sorry to be jumping into this thread but can't find the other one with Blackwells.

I ordered my one on the 1st May with Blackwell. It has arrived in Parcel Motel Belfast so hopefully they will be doing a drop later today.

Don't worry, NOOK is trying their best to accommodate your order. It may take four to five business days to ship it and two to six business days for the delivery.
We apologise for the inconvenience this might have caused you. Thus, we greatly appreciate your patience.

Sheila
Customer Service Representative

phoned littlewoods, they told me it's fastways who have it now and whatever the problem is, it's with them. They give me a label number, but it's not tracking on the website and fastways aren't answering the phone.

Girl from littlewoods basically, once it says "dispatched" it's in the hands of the couriers.

As a matter of interest did you pay with an Irish credit card? My nook UK order was declined due to the credit card payment failing (never experienced this issue before with any other website).

If they happen to get more stock in it'll be interesting to hear how you were successful

donnacha · 07-05-2013 05:34PM

Well Blackwells finally cancelled my order from 30th April this morning. I really shouldn't have wasted my time phoning them last week - the verbal reassurances my order would be delivered seem like distant memory. Thankfully I'd gotten on the littlewoods train and surprisingly enough my order has been shipped - though I'll be waiting awhile by the looks of things as they are still shipping these things to the wrong depot. Anyone get theirs re-routed away from Middleton yet and safely delivered?
