Thanks - but Belfast is not 020 7xxx xxxx

Guess it is a spoofed number - probably VoIP

Ordered my copy of win 7 on saturday and it was despatched monday, but as yet had nowt, and heard nowt either.

I'll give it a till tues/weds next week and then start making a noise

Have recieved an email as above from software4students will be ringing on Monday a.m. to find out what iss going on and why the extra delay. The question springs to mind is if they know the software is now missing why haven't they rung microsoft or emailed them and asked them to cancel the registration numbers as a matter of urgency and resent the software with new numbers.

I also intend to ring on Wednesday the 18th to ensure that they are sending the software as promised. Lets hope they honour the email and use a different method of supply

I wish I hadn't seen the advert for this site on GMTV or in computeractive will be sending computeractive a copy of my email as a matter of course so they are aware of this problem.

Found this site that also deals with software for students look for discounted software for students for a company called pugh co uk in google.

If we could have got the Nhs (microsoft) problems sorted out such as creating emails and activation problems resolved on the required sites would have purchased through that scheme as my wife works for the NHS.

I was one of the unfortunates who ordered from their website. Ordered 28th October 2009; shown as dispatched; still not received. I received this email last night.

"We have been notified that a large batch of orders despatched between October 23rd and November 2nd have been lost in delivery. Your order for Microsoft Office Enterprise 2007, Order number xxxxxxxx.xx has been included in this batch. We apologise for any inconvenience this has caused and we are working hard to resolve this issue as fast as possible.

Each product ordered is assigned a specific licence key. We have arranged for the licence key on your order to be cancelled with Microsoft. We are contractually required to supply only one licence per student; as soon as we receive confirmation from Microsoft that the licence key is expired we can then issue a replacement key and re-dispatch your order.

We have been given a date by Microsoft and all keys will be cancelled by Wednesday 18th November. At this stage we can issue a second dispatch. We expect your second dispatch to be with you on or before Monday 23rd November.


If you urgently need Microsoft Office you can obtain a free 60 day trial version here: (Please Note: This should be uninstalled before you install our version)

I decided to ask for my refund. Still has not been updated on their website.

So as in the title, some more versions made available if you dare!

I would be very worried about this company. The only consilation is that I ordered with my credit card.
