Got a call from from HN today. Apparently my pre-order will be ready to collect at 9.30 on Friday morning. Nice one.

Which HN was it and was it under a private number ?

CS:

''Hello,

In order to address this query efficiently, we will need to carry out a physical check of the item in our Fulfilment Centre. I have therefore requested that our inventory of Sony PlayStation 4 and Knack (PS4) be examined by a member of our Fulfilment Centre team.

We will contact you back within two business days with an update on this query. Please be aware that this is the maximum amount of time it will take for us to update you.

We are currently aware of this issue and are waiting for further information. As soon as we have this information, I will update you accordingly. Please expect a further update within 3 business days. Please be aware that this is the maximum amount of time it will take for us to update you.

There is nothing to worry we will try to make the delivery before Christmas.

I hope this helps. We look forward to seeing you again soon.''

Anyone who is having issues with their Amazon order, in my experience, getting them to phone you is the best way to get answers as their CS by both email and live chat goes around in circles and you get passed on to people who seem to copy and paste the same old shte.

After about five live chats and 10 useless bog-standard emails, talking to someone on the phone got me the update requested within a day.

im hoping to find out if they are even getting in any as they never got their xboxs and the staff are clueless

Got a call from my local Gamestop earlier in the evening and surprisingly, they said I could switch to a bundle. Went with the Killzone bundle since it'll work out cheaper! Thought those bundles would have been well gone by now.

NeVeR · 27-11-2013 09:19AM

Not that it makes much difference.. but my Amazon order changed from Est delivery 3rd / 4th Dec to ---Monday 2 Dec 2013 - Tuesday 3 Dec 2013

So maybe a day earlier

heebusjeebus · 27-11-2013 09:30AM

Gah, the 400 euro hold on my credit card is gone today. No sign of Gamestop online taking the money yet.
Getting worried so I've emailed looking for confirmation that everything is ok.
I've never wanted to pay for something more in my life

27-11-2013 09:30AM

I picked 2 day delivery to ireland (Amazon.co.uk) and it says 29 Nov - 30 Nov.

I think they are going to use UPS (all my orders from Amazon were handled by UPS)... does UPS deliver on Saturday ...

Not the end of the world if I have to wait until Monday, but I've free weekend and assassin's creed 4 disc already waiting to be used

ferike1 · 27-11-2013 09:48AM

Gyahhh. Still only confirmed. No money taken. Ha. Would be some kicker if I didn't get one Friday after preordering in June.

Depends when UPS get there hands on it......if it's in Ireland by the early hours of Friday, then a same day delivery is likely. Any delay, as was seen with the Xbox orders, and you may be out of luck.
Saturday delivery is not standard though, even the late MS Store Xbox orders were mostly handled by contract couriers/OT after the complete balls-up last week.
Really depends on when Amazon get them out........you'd think overseas deliveries should get sent out late Weds in these cases, so as to allow for a somewhat leisurely Friday deadline, but considering the amount of orders Amazon have to plough through, logical ideas like that are never really factored in.

DS4 got shipped this morning from gamestop.co.uk

I was going to ask the same thing. My understanding was that they didn't do saturday delivery normally but i'm paying £20 sterling for next day delivery so thats what i'll be looking for. I've a free weekend this weekend the other half is away so i really want this friday with no distractions ha.

If i dont get mine until Monday i'll be getting onto amazon demanding £20 credit for my failed next day delivery

Exclamation Marc · 27-11-2013 11:13AM

GameStop couldn't take money from my card on Monday and emailed me that I urgently needed to address the issue. I rang them yesterday and asked them to retry taking the money, they did and the money has now been authorised/is on hold on my account.

Hoping it's a repeat of the xbox one situation where people got them on the Thursday...

Although I'll have no games til Friday! Ha

ferike1 · 27-11-2013 11:14AM

Has anyone else who ordered online with GS not been charged yet?

I payed £20 aswell but the delivery says 1-2 days so it could end up being Monday but over in the xbox thread a few people said they recieved it Friday so fingers crossed

hallo dare · 27-11-2013 11:18AM

Come on already!!! Bf4 with nothing to play it on! Talk about putting the cart before the ass! :-)

The vast majority of consoles they have are bundles, it is not surprising they are offering you one, they want as many people as possible to upgrade, if everyone took the solus consoles they would not have enough stock.

It has my "estimated" delivery as between 29th - 30th so if we don't get it until monday (which is the 2nd) i think we have a case. Otherwise i'd just do free shipping probably get it on the tuesday without having to pay a cent extra.

Fingers crossed we do get it friday but things never go that smoothly :eek:

heebusjeebus · 27-11-2013 11:43AM

I just called the number for Gamestop online and I was told that the payments will come out this afternoon or tomorrow. Shipments going out tomorrow for delivery on Friday.
I was told they'd call me if they had a problem with payment.
