Your original was still a multiple discount.

Think Nokia UK is cracking down all orders with 15%+ discount applied to the order even if it was reordered by an agent after that email asking you to 're-confirm the order'

Apolgies... Since I'm a Brit living abroad and commuting to UK once a month I thought I'd hitch with you guys and see which of the main retailer are stocking it in the UK. I would presume none of the online stores have it till mid to late December, neither any of the high st. retailers. Only place I see that would make sense would be Nokia online.

Re: Nokia N900 - UK Release Related Information
 
Lets get an idea how many orders shop.nokia.co.uk canceled for credit card reasons, it does appear more than would be typical.

I started a thread, so as not to clog up this one:

http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php...472#post387472

Please add to it if you have had the email from shop.nokia.co.uk cancelling your order, and if you wish add it/what discounts you had applied.

Hey, don't let them shout at you, Shaichico. Thanks for the congratulations. You're welcome to bunk with us and enjoy the enthusiasm. This thread has been a real blessing for sifting out UK related information (out of the Huge Threads) so we're a bit protective of it. But we don't mind people being here watching us go slowly crazy...

nokia should of posted to it retailers, I talked to MPD guys twice today, they said they ll ship it at the end of the month. but I think they might post it to retailers and they can dispatch it from there.

source: common sence ! :D

Re: Nokia N900 - UK Release Related Information
 
Same as most here, used multiple discounts to pre-order in October, then today received the "Order ready to be processed" email, followed later by the "Order cancelled due to credit card failure".

I had my suspicions that the order would be cancelled as I did take the p1ss a bit (3 x 15% discounts and 10% cashback on N900 and spare battery) but the sneaky way in which (I believe) Nokia Shop has gone about cancelling the orders has annoyed me. There is very little doubt in my mind that Nokia have put through the debit and credit card charges in a way in which the card companies are likely to perceive as fraudulent transactions and cancel them.

Has anyone had their order cancelled that didn’t have discount codes on their order?

Re: Nokia N900 - UK Release Related Information
 
Well my order got declined because it was regarded as fraudulent.
I suppose that's what you get for repeated auth's for 500 quid on a credit card without settling.
And I have to re-order, as the Nokia shop can't re-auth as the order is deleted after a DECLINE.
To add injury to insult the nokia uk shop seems to be down now. (on checkout)
https://shop.nokia.co.uk/nokia-uk/error500.aspx

I would have thought that nokia could have a system that was fit for purpose, but having a web shop that simply delete's orders on a decline is beyond belief, especially on a system that accepts pre-orders.

I would say this might damage Nokia's image further, but there is no "might" in there unfortunately.

At least they still have one die hard fan, I'll be trying again and again....until it arrives (or maemo 6 arrives, which ever is first)

Thnx RevdK, I'm glad for most of you the wait is almost over. I'll be back in London for Crimbo so I'm hoping the main retailers have it in stock during that period! If not I guess I have to wait over this side of the pond actually more like way up north of the pond!

I wouldn't count on it; The orders still say 'not shipped' and the emails said only 'released for processing'. They may ship this evening, or tomorrow. But I wouldn't count on it arriving early tomorrow.

Nope. As I (and a few other people have said) - our orders have gone through ok.

Ovek 2009-11-23 21:11

Re: Nokia N900 - UK Release Related Information
 
One of the possible reasons for the banks rejecting the orders is due to the fact the orders were processed in Finland.

Banks generally don't like large amounts of money being requested from a different country, this becomes especially problematic if your using a credit card to pay for your N900 and you used the same card to pay for a bagel and a latte for morning brunch in the UK, it kind of sets of alarms...

Re: Nokia N900 - UK Release Related Information
 
I used all three vouchers and the money seems to have been taken from my credit card. It's not showing up in transactions yet but my available credit has decreased by the correct amount (£306.45).

Using the three vouchers brought the total down to £306.45. Also had £49.90 validated on quidco. So will be £256.55 once the quidco has come thru.

I've only got the 'in stock - released for processing' email so far. Ordered on the 19th Oct.

What do you mean by 'shipping confirmation' ?:confused: Do you mean the standard email everyone got sayings its been released for processing?

This isn't true for auth's marked as internet orders, only for card holder present.
This is more the fact that Nokia couldn't communicate internally and unnecessarily auth'ed cards three times (or more) for 500 quid, it is naturally assumed as a fraud. (How many people buy three phones for 500quid in 2 months?)
There are better ways of doing this and Nokia should know this.

Just got the normally really annoying call from my CC company saying that Nokia had charged me, but this time I was overjoyed to hear from them.

Also got an email from shop.nokia.co.uk saying that they have processed the order, but no shipping confirmation.

Got my screen protector, SD card, and armoured case, all I need now is patience :)

I agree, I don't think its intentional by Nokia (as I didn't have any discount codes applied), its random but related to the technology/way/number of orders Nokia were putting though.

IMHO if we have some idea of the scale of this we take that to .shop.nokia and see if they can improve their processing for the future.
