Live chat with P4U

Hello RIZWAN. My name is Sami W how can I help you?

RIZWAN says:

Hi Sami

RIZWAN says:

Could you please advise me whether my order will be dispatched for tomorrow?

RIZWAN says:

?

RIZWAN says:

hello

Sami W says:

I will look into this for you now. How are you today?

RIZWAN says:

I'm fine thanks

Sami W says:

Please can you confirm your surname and first line of your address?

RIZWAN says:

XXXXXXX

Sami W says:

I can see that your order is in our warehouse, currently waiting to be despatched. As the release date is tomorrow this is set for delivery for the 15th Mach, so we can assure you that the HTC Once Silver handset you have ordered has not been affected by the stock delays.

RIZWAN says:

lovely news. So i take that it's guaranted dispatch will be tomorrow? so for repeating myself.

Sami W says:

We have assured customers that providing there is no courier delays in your area, there is no reason why the handset would not be delivered tomorrow.

ok i understand couriers can be delayed but can you guarantee dispatch will be done tomorrow and ofcourse depending on courier service I will receive with 3-5 days?

Sami W says:

We are not able to guarantee deliver, as there may be unforeseen delays with the courier that could prevent this being despatch. However, providing there is no delays then yes this would be delivered on the 15th March.

sounds good to me guys

I upgraded through phones for you. The day after the HTC event. (02) network.

I have had no email from PFU yet but just recieved a text message from 02 saying:

Thanks for choosing to stay with us. Your Order number is pu-xxxxxxxxx. For info on the new tariff go to www.02.co.uk/xxxxxxxxxxx

Nothing to jump up and down about but its something to say they are working on my Pre-Order
[One (M7) General] jimbojames79:
True, but when I signed up it said 48hr delivery. Anyway, we'll soon see.

Better not come any later than 22Mar though cos I'm moving house then!
[One (M7) General] firedup:
Same here. Rang 3 again and they said it should be with me tomorrow.
[One (M7) General] martinezst:
So following on from that text message from 02, my data has stopped working, so i can not check my emails as i am at work, and cant access them from here.

But I rang P4U and they said my order has been dispatched and I was also given a tracking number.

So for anyone who is unsure about there order ring phones4U on 08448712234 or you can try these numbers to save you ringing an 0844 number from Mobile: 01782 673100 or free phone from landline: 0800 0725858

Hope everyone gets there phone tomorrow, so we can do user reviews tips and tricks

Any news of Handtec?
[One (M7) General] firedup:
Just had a "live chat" and they say not until 25th March.
[One (M7) General] Tarzan-:
Spoke to Handtec on the phone and they haven't received not a Single unit as per the guy on the phone. According to him black and silver will be delivered the same day from Handtec and they are getting their stock straight from the HTC.

I'd say good on him for not giving false hopes.
[One (M7) General] riz157:
I think it's week commencing 25th not until 25th so it could be 2nd April until you receive your order provided they receive stock by the end of that week.
[One (M7) General] Noodles5666:
I had a live chat with them and they said not until the "week" of March 25th. They said it would be sometime during that week.

Re: HTC One Launch (Delayed)

HTC can't get out of their own way. Come up with a beautiful flagship device - check. Offer the device on all carrier's - check. Fail at being able to meet launch demands on your flagship phone - check. Get face rolled by the S4, who reportedly will have 10 million units ready to on launch - check.

I've always supported HTC, but they are proving to be their own worst enemy, and they are probably going the way of the dodo.
[One (M7) General] firedup:
The 3 website now says 28th March for the silver. Wonder if this is because they have a delay or just sold all there 1st batch??

[One (M7) General] brainimpact:
as anyone had any shipping confirmed with 3, I've been waiting for them to phone for two hours to process my pre-order, but no one phone dont think I'll get one now might as well just ignore the call now and stay with CPW
[One (M7) General] Nekromantik:
Orange got no stock today,

Find it alarming at how a big network like EE got nothing while Three and DialaPhone and Phones4U got stock.

I still got 4 months before contract end so cant use anyone apart from Orange and pay early upgrade fee. I will spend too much on this phone!
[One (M7) General] martinezst:
Have you tried phones4u or similar? They MAY help buy out your contract

Carphone Warehouse

Does anybody know about carphone warehouse ? website says that it is expected to arrive on 29th but the in store people in Lincoln say that mine is still expected to arrive on Friday ?? I ordered the special offer with the urbeats silver version on 10th of March, so maybe because it is a special offer it would arrive on time ?

Anyone share the same story ?
[One (M7) General] dai_griff:
Spoke to 3 just now. They have stock in the warehouse and mine is being delivered tomorrow, although they said that last week :)
[One (M7) General] Jammie25:

p4u preorder has said it is status held due to stock issues, that uk silver on ee.

I've just spoke to 3 who said my order should be with me tomorrow, all new orders on 3 wont be delivered untill 28th but

pre orders before 4pm today will be here tomorrow.

Lets see aye.
[One (M7) General] tim84us:
no news from p4u for me

preorder sim free silver

i spoke 2wice with them today, same story: my order is waiting for stock assigning....the order was processed ans is now with the warehouse people waiting to be assigned a phone. Is 5 pm now so i dont think they will send me the phone today or tomorrow....in the end they turned out to be just a big bluff, at least the others had the decency to admit stock problems while phones4u promised delivery by 15th when in reality they probably had 2-3 000 devices, that only some lucky ones will get, the bulk of us, (most of which are people who cancelled with the other sellers, tempted my p4u empty promises of delivery on fri ) will have to wait like everyone else till end of march

to be honest i've lost all my interest in this phone, the momentum is gone

just wish phones4u would have had more respect towards people's money

they took my 500gbp day i ordered, but dont really care when they send it :eek:
[One (M7) General] riz157:
When did u preorder??
[One (M7) General] tim84us:
march 2nd

i tell you - they're just a bunch of %%^&*

all they cared is to get as many ppl to switch for them, charge their cards and then like it or not youre stuck with them

so a terrible management - they must be laughing theyr ass with HTC right now - we are the fools here

for giving a ^&** about their products when they dont clearly about us

Remember Jelleybean scandal anyone????

deja vu now

---------- Post added at 05:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:11 PM ----------

And just to see how much they've changed tone since yesterday this is what they answered me when i asked why did they lied about delivery on 15ht for sure

''Dean: We would have been advised by HTC of the date to advise. And as such on this occasion the production has not been up to the expected amount.

Dean: So how is it I can help myself? Is not like I can do anything about this?! I'm sorry but this is not our fault! Is there anything I could help you with today?''

Yes - get lost for ever ( i hate liers so much )

[One (M7) General] arknailed7754:
Re: HTC One Launch (Delayed)

No the point is...phones4u know how many they are getting. Even small companies know how much they get in a shipment. This is why p4u are getting a bad rap. Not sense of entitlement. If they knew they were getting a small amount notice should of been given.
[One (M7) General] reddragon72:

"Thank you for pre-ordering your HTC One from Phones 4u.

We’re writing to let you know that there has been a slight delay with the delivery of this new phone to the UK. Please accept our apologies for the delay. The hold-up concerns the EE/Orange/T-Mobile networks and has affected all retailers across the county. The good news is that we will be able to dispatch your new phone tomorrow. This should mean you will receive the HTC One by Monday 18 March at the latest. The next email you will receive from us will be to confirm that your phone has been dispatched.

Once again, please accept our apologies for the inconvenience caused by this delay.

Yours sincerely,

Re: HTC One Launch (Delayed)

Voda UK just confirmed my order from march 1st of one black, one silver will be despatched tonight for delivery tomorrow. happy days
[One (M7) General] bugsy:
Definitely frustrating as a customer, but customers also create a big piece of this problem because they order from multiple places and then cancel whichever order doesn't come first or cancel when something is delayed a few days. Just look at the comments on XDA about folks ordering from multiple stores. This makes it very difficult for a vendor to give a definitive answer, because they don't know what the cancellation percentage will be.

[One (M7) General] RCJ89:
I know it is painful the current situation that is going on but for one of my mates, it is even more painful.

He sold his galaxy s3 about mid feb for £280 then ended up spending it on take away and all sorts of crap, he planned on getting the xz at first fair enough. However afterthe announcement of the one i told him the one was the much better phone he wouldn't listen anyway come feb 28th when he was due to get the xz, he didnt have enough money as he spends most of it on his GF and her (his step-son) but that is another story. he also pays so much in bills because of private renting he has had to do tremendous amounts of over time to afford his phone. Anyway after playing with the xz and the one decided the one was better but he wouldnt have enough money until the 28th march to get the phone anyway, today now hes had to fork out more money on his money grabbing so called GF and has huge bills to pay this coming week so now again hes not going to have enough money to get the phone and he gets paid at the end of every month.

So now he is looking at the ending of april to get his HTC One (his own fault because he is letting that leach milk him dry), mean time he is using the same crappy phone as me a BB Curve 9320!

They screwed up with the lunch of this product real bad, im hoping by some miracle that its going to be released tomorrow.

[One (M7) General] davesupra:
yeah unfortunately as there is no other option in the UK for 4G at the moment EE can really charge whatever they want. I can see prices coming down fairly rapidly when Voda/02 start rolling out 4G in the summer, but for now 1GB just aint enough when your pulling 30-40 MB/s, and personally wasn't willing to risk the same shocking battery life thats been reported on other LTE handsets, so I stuck with 3G this time ... its a balancing act tho as starting a new contract now on 3G means your waiting at least another 18 months to get on 4G (unless you go sim free or pay ridiculous early termination fee!)

I am on orange, and asked if I could switch to EE (4G) at some time in the future before my contract ends , I assumed as they were part of the same company this wouldnt be a huge issue, but was told I would need to pay a termination fee ....

The delay has not worked out well for HTC because the S4 is just kicking the One's arse. All the cam features are on the S4 as well and no plastic - polycarbonate body and loads of other features that the one does not have. Watching the live stream now and can see how this is going to play out.
