So I'm 36th on the list. Any guesses as to how long it will take before I'm in receipt of a precious invite? If each invitee gets three invites and circulates those to the other members of the list my limited maths skills reckon the following will be the case:-

1 = 3 = 9 = 27 = 81

So how long does it take each round of invites to materialise into a new round of invites being issued?

If there was a week between using an invite to purchase the phone and then receiving 3 invites which were immediately re-issued to the list and used same day by the recipients it looks like it will be 4-5 weeks by the time people between 28 and 81 on the list will receive invites and that assumes everything goes 100% smoothly.

Am I any way correct?

Simple answer is :we don't know.

They [oneplus] haven't said anything about the turnaround time of invites after buying from them. From what I see it's completely random as I'm seeing people who paid for the phone after me get invites to share before me, likewise with people who haven't paid for it also getting them.

We had a good run last month where a load of people (inc myself) managed to get one but from that time its been slow. I was kinda hoping the 10.000 invites promo would kick it into gear once more but nothing yet. But the fact is we have quite a few people here now waiting for them to pass on here..

I still feel that they (oneplus) are close to just lashing out the invites as they build up for the supposed pre-ordering invite-less system they want to do soon.

At least 5 times a day i'm back on the oneplus site seeing if my invites are in yet and as soon as they are this thread will be the first to know!


Also remember that as the invites are time dependent sometimes the people next on the list cant respond in time so the invite jumps the Que to someone who can use it there and then... we had this where an invite jumped about 10 peeps as none where there and it had almost run out of time.... so I suppose those who stick close by the thread will have a better chance of getting it quicker.

Thanks lads, I have email notification turned on for this thread so heopefully when my turn comes I'll be able to jump at it.

Done

Could I please be added? Much appreciated

Theres a post on the first page you need to read first

Read it. Chancing my arm. I have never found it harder to offload 350. I wish they would just shut up and take my money.

Can I be added?

I got one, gave it to a friend, and now the gf wants one. The list will probably be too long for me, but just in case if I could be added that'd be great.

List updated.

PM's sent 2 people with invites and ionapaul has accepted one from the lads on hangouts.

Thanks for this - phone has been ordered!

Hi all, who wants an invite? First to respond gets it. It runs out in 9 hours though so be quick. Also don't take it if your not gonna buy it, I'll give it to someone on the oneplus one forum instead!

I'm second in line please.

Yup, pm sent.

Invite sent. Sorry to all the others. Just felt good to give something away spur of the moment. And since I haven't been following this thread, just the proper oneplus one forum, apologies for not sending to someone on the boards list. I honestly don't even know it.

Mine was just in my email addy registered to oneplus
