If you paid by CC make sure that they haven't held the order pending on a security check. I just realised that I got my email from nokia after I answered the CC check!

Subject: RE: Your Nokia N900 Order

Hi there,

Thanks for the notice at last, it is good to have a date. Im a bit confused though, as I thought you ran the Nokia Retail side of things?
Im also not very happy at the further delay, is it really going to be that late, the whole point of ordering from you was your advertising, stating that you would be getting it first and also as an exclusive. This is obviously not the case, I can buy it direct from Nokia now for delivery Tuesday, (I have just phoned them.)
Is this message a precautionary message and you might be getting them in earlier, because if not, I may have to cancel my order and order directly from Nokia..

Please advise

M

They have sent back

No one will have the handset until the end of the month as there are no handset in the UK yet to despatch.

Do you still wish to keep your order?

Kind regards

I've sent them a mail stating that Nokia have started shipping today so can they explain why they have no stock for another 10 days?

For those that missed it earlier (Anwarboy11)

Nobody will see any change in shipping till tomorrow on Nokia or via email, and Trackin info will be added, but money taken from your cards is a gd sign... i wud imagine they are in transit to the delivery centre( for UPS or who ever they use) and then out!

Re: Nokia N900 - UK Release Related Information

Expansys UK are now showing 9th of December for the N900 and play.com 31st of December.

Should be interesting to see what happens. It could be the only way to get this thing before Christmas is from Nokia direct.

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?

think your spot on here. i rang my bank he said it was to stop fraud

Re: Nokia N900 - UK Release Related Information

After reading this thread I phoned Barclays and they confirmed that the money had been taken by Nokia

(I phoned initially to make sure they authorize the transaction and forgo the complications I had read about/loose my discounts)

But anyways, all jokes aside I think this thread reflects poorly on us Brits. In every other thread when a native consumer posts info on how to get the device either a) sooner b) cheaper they don't debate they use that free advice to their advantage.

Just for confirmation I spoke to Nokia twice today. Again at the regent street store and Nokia.co.uk both said that other retailers are allowed (by agreement) to use their brand/brand likeness

But both confirmed that if either were part of Nokia they would receive and dispatch the devices the same time as NOKIA

As they would have access to the same stock!!! And Shipping agreements!!!

BTW Carphonewarehouse &phones4U are both expecting delivery early Dec? Perhaps the 3rd?

It seems that all orders from Nokia Online Shops in Europe are shipped from Netherlands.

I suspect its because Nokia Online Shops' orders are shipped from the same warehouse(s) in Netherlands that ship to retailers like MPD. And the warehouse(s) starts shipments at the same time to retailers and to the customers of Nokia Online Shops.

Re: Nokia N900 - UK Release Related Information

I ordered an E72 with discount codes and a N900 plus 3 discount codes. These were two seperate orders and the E72 order went like this. UK Webstore was used. This should give you an indication for shipping times. Not bad if you ask me. My N900 has express shipping.

netherlands to the UK

This was free shipping option.
13th Received the stock email being released for processing
13th Payment Taken

Status
Activity Actual date & time Shipment Current Status Who Track & trace

Since tomorrow is not December 3rd, then the answer to that must be No.

Nooooo I don't believe for a minute that MPD will receive them.. post them out ....a second before they stated in their last email unfortunately- and even then I'm somewhat cautious about believing that.

Re: Nokia N900 - UK Release Related Information

I work at the Nokia Retail Store (Guildford), we have been informed that it will have it in our stocks on Thursday morning (means extra shift) and dispatch will start on Monday (30th November). We have been under lots of stress from the phone calls we received, but please do not hesitate to contact (01483 303071).

Re: Nokia N900 - UK Release Related Information

For MPD, Its hard enough to get ANYONE to do something ON time, I wouldn't hold any hope for early.

As for Nokia.co.uk, Its nice to finally see some progress (*Sigh of relief*). For the people who received their 'processing email' I hope we get the phone soon, but its still down to nokia. They still need to post them !

See what tomorrow brings ..........

Re: Nokia N900 - UK Release Related Information

So hold on, can you buy the N900 on a T-Mobile contract (the same deals they had on MPD) @ Guilford?

Re: Nokia N900 - UK Release Related Information

Ordered from MPD (nokiaretail.co.uk) on the 18th Nov.

I have recieved no emails from them AT ALL, even after emailing twice requesting date information.

This is unacceptable. If steve is correct then i should see a change in the order status on thursday?

Or are you only talking about the Guildford store?

NO MATTER!

All I want is confirmation of the dates in my inbox.

I think MPD will get their stock alongwith other Customers from Nokia Warehouses.. they might get their deliveries by Wed or Thursday as other Nokia UK Customers and start delivering to customers by next week hopefully. Monday (Late November)--> Deliveries and with us on Tuesday or Wednesday (Early December) as it uses Royal Mail Next day delivery..

And what i think delay is justifiable.. cause we're aren't paying full prices (most of us) and are getting them on contracts .. so that will obviously take time... :) lets hope MPD gets their stock this week xD

Re: Nokia N900 - UK Release Related Information

It will be shipped to store at Salisbury first and they will ship it to the other Nokia Retail Stores, basically Salisbury will be the main store. Winchester, Reading and Newbury stores will get it first and it will be shipped to the other stores within next week. I am not aloud to say anything about deals but as far as I know for a quite while (couple of months) only deals will be available on Vodafone.
