Re: Mobile Phones Direct N900 Customers
 

Don't worry, I ordered on 20th. Sep and still waiting

Re: Mobile Phones Direct N900 Customers
 

Oh **** I got through to the online chat but I forgot it was open adn he cut me offf!!!!!!!

Re: Mobile Phones Direct N900 Customers
 

Solo card (Debit) - yup no money gone, just confirmed with bank....
on charge at the mo .... do i turn it on or not eeeeeeeeeeek!

Re: Mobile Phones Direct N900 Customers
 

LOL NOW THE ONLINE CHAT IS OFF AGAIN! LOL

I had my chance to speak to them and I ****ed it all up lol

Re: Mobile Phones Direct N900 Customers
 

I demand you NOT turn it on until I receive mine. :D

Speaking of, I have tried ringing them to confirm I do not need to update my debit card details but it goes through the answerphone.

Re: Mobile Phones Direct N900 Customers
 

Ok, it really does seem as though they basically are too busy to keep up with the status updates.. Mine went from pending stock to ready for despatch as soon as I put the phone down to them this morning, and they never took my account number- i just told them I'd ordered 16th Oct and it had't changed. And there's what Noob has just reported....
My theory is then, that people may well be further up the ladder than they think- status is not necessarily upto date.

Re: Mobile Phones Direct N900 Customers
 

I need to be clear - thats the THIRD postman today - one with letters, one with 4 parcels, and this came on it's on from a large Royal Mail van... The driver apologised for being 5 minutes late when he delivered at 1:05pm!

Webshop Customer Help says:

Qasim says:
ah you dont have any idea if its been dispatched?
Webshop Customer Help says:
All the first pre-orders are being despatched within 5 days starting yesterday.
Qasim says:
ok thank you

Not really too helpful, but I do think they are uninformed. Does this qualify for a cookie? :O

Re: Mobile Phones Direct N900 Customers
 

Same standard reply then!

Re: Mobile Phones Direct N900 Customers
 

Nah, my postie has been and gone now. They aint goona send out another one.

Just rang MPD and couldn't arsed to moan at them any more, just asked if mine had been dispatched yet, gave order number etc.

He told me that all pre-orders from 10th Sept (assuming htat's when they started) to "a certain date" way to be specific!! The N900's were sent out to Nokia stores and they have started dispatching yesterday and could take up to 5 working days from yesterday, so basically he told me it could arrive anytime up until Wednesday!

I mentioned that I know someone that ordered on 21st of Oct, that had received their's today but he never commented. So much for first come first served.

WHAT A LOAD OF BO**OCKS!!!

...and breath....

Re: Mobile Phones Direct N900 Customers
 

That is because:

Basically if you tell MPD they can demand a refund of the postage, lol. But it also rather implies no more deliveries today. :(

Re: Mobile Phones Direct N900 Customers
 

i got this message: No representatives are available at this time. Representatives may only be available during office hours. The time is currently 1:30:17 PM.

Re: Mobile Phones Direct N900 Customers
 

I reckon they just got shitloads of these devices at some point yesterday/today and now pushing them away to pre-order customers without any specific order just to get this sorted asap. As ninjagirl noted above - they don't keep up with updating order status. So basically, we can expect our N900s *anytime* now (although today's 1pm postman deadline is crossed now :( maybe more luck tomorrow).

Re: Mobile Phones Direct N900 Customers
 

I missed noobs post about his coming special delivery via van. Thye don't do special deliveries after 1pm then?

Re: Mobile Phones Direct N900 Customers
 

Guys its ROYAL MAIL FFS. They could and most probably will be late!

Re: Mobile Phones Direct N900 Customers
 

I do not believe so.

Normal post, yes. Special Delivery, no. Because they actually have to refund the postage cost if they are late. (although that assumes the postee is aware it was delivered late)

That is in fact one reason normal post gets delayed, because Special Delivery gets top priority.

Re: Mobile Phones Direct N900 Customers
 

It's a shame that out status' aren't updated properly, to include our tracking number. At least we'd know where RM have it. Don't suppose if I ring RM they'll be able to tell me anything?

Re: Mobile Phones Direct N900 Customers
 

I ordered mine yesterday according to MPD I should get the N900 in 5 days!

Is this realistic or am I just being naive?

(I have a feeling it is the later!)

Re: Mobile Phones Direct N900 Customers
 

IF RM have it. I think they are updating what they got ready to dispatch under that status and only dispatched a certain amount for whatever reasons.

Re: Mobile Phones Direct N900 Customers
 

In my experience they are pretty useless even if you HAVE the tracking information. Although, I do not often get Special Delivery packages as they are supposed to be more organised due to the above.

Re: Mobile Phones Direct N900 Customers
 

*Sob uncontrolably* So close, I was sooo close. How am I going to get my OH to collect it next week, when I won't be here to sign the card *sobs continue*

Re: Mobile Phones Direct N900 Customers
 

Its okay - don't panic!!

Leave a form of identification with him/her - it can be anything from a utility bill to a credit card... not just a passport or licence... the Post Office are less stringent about I.D forms - just some general proof is all they need.

Your OH can take that down with them and just explain you live together and that you're away. I have things collected on my behalf a lot and all they ask for is some I.D of the named person...

Never fear!

Re: Mobile Phones Direct N900 Customers
 

my f5 is tired. still pending stoooooock......:mad:

Re: Mobile Phones Direct N900 Customers
 

I'm not sure its even that, proof that you live at the same address should go a long way.

Re: Mobile Phones Direct N900 Customers
 

I feel your pain mate! I'd be feeling extremely sad if mine still said pending. When did you order?

Re: Mobile Phones Direct N900 Customers
 

08/10/09, and u?

Re: Mobile Phones Direct N900 Customers
 

Post man came.............. But all he had was bills for me :( just hoping the van will come later. Although I'm almost positive it won't:(

Re: Mobile Phones Direct N900 Customers
 

So some mail that is addressed to both of us would be spiffy then? If that's the case I could get my hands on it on Wednesday night!!

My OH's dad is popping down to visit her whilst I'm away then he'll be back in Brum on Wednesday!! And that'd save me having to extend my PAC code, it runs out on 10th Dec!

28th Sept! Still says Ready for Despatch.

Re: Mobile Phones Direct N900 Customers
 

i hope u will get tomorrow lucky...
all saints... pray for us...

Re: Mobile Phones Direct N900 Customers
 

Mine was 9th Nov and was 'Ready for Despatch' yesterday :o

Re: Mobile Phones Direct N900 Customers
 

17/11 for me, went Ready for dispatch before lunch...

Re: Mobile Phones Direct N900 Customers
 

Just checked the royal mail website then, if it hass not already been covered...they gurantee that it will get to you before 1pm, (sighs) looks like i'll have to wait till monday coz im working all weekend :(

Re: Mobile Phones Direct N900 Customers
 

INFO: For all of those that are going to be very delayed or haven't ordered/had money taken yet...I just called Nokia flagship store Regent St managed to get an N900 ordered- it was in stock and is to arrive Monday if I'm lucky, or Tuesday depending on whether he gets it on the lorry in time.

I paid £90 up front on a Vodafone UPGRADE (key for me) £35/month, 18 month contract. Okay, a bit more that MPD are offering but they'd messed me around badly over the last 3 weeks I lost faith.

I hope this helps!

Re: Mobile Phones Direct N900 Customers
 

Anyone got them from the MPD online store? which is the southampton one.

Re: Mobile Phones Direct N900 Customers
 

u will get today..... i hope..

Re: Mobile Phones Direct N900 Customers
 

Yeh that's what the last god knows how many pages have been about, i think at least 3 people today have stated they have got them.

That's why I've been on edge all day waiting for the postman, as off arond 5pm tonight I'm not at home for a week :(

It's gone rather quiet on here since about 1:30pm - 2pm. Everyone realised there's no hope?

Re: Mobile Phones Direct N900 Customers
 

Probably.


Does he mean an MPD Store?... (walk in..)

Re: Mobile Phones Direct N900 Customers
 

right, sending this from the n900. wishing you all the best of luck with your deliveries!
p.s. the web browser is sooo great, shocked this site is easy to navigate on it too.
p.s.s. anyone else got theirs?

Re: Mobile Phones Direct N900 Customers
