    I wonder if it isnt just the sheer volume of orders they recieved yesterday that is holding things up at the processing stage.

    Thats what I have been wondering abijanzo. Especially as orders seem to be trickling through now.

    All three of ours are still processing - fingers x'd :D

    Check your bank account. If the balance on your account is different to 'available balance' then some money has been reserved for a card transaction.

    My available balance is a few quid less that my actual balance which means more money has been reserved?

    Hi. I have been debited twice too for my item. I was about to email play about it, but when I checked out my other account with the same bank, I found that something on that account had been debited twice too (once on the 1st and once on the 2nd). I have now written to the bank about it. If the amount you have been charged is correct, but you have been charged twice, maybe it is a banking error rather than play.

    No the amounts have been on separate days, to add to more confusion I have ordered 2 items with the voucher that are £4.99.

    but that is what concerns me... play.com don't process card details until the item is ready for dispatch, so why are they 'processing' my order for Martin's book when it's not out yet?? I think it might get cancelled.

    The new money diet has been shipping early from play so that explains it.

    I got one from Play last week.

  • Okay I jave just worked out that my actual balance and my available balance are different now if I take my available balance and add the items that I bought from play.com it comes to exactly £1 less than what has been taken/ is to be taken out of my account.

    Just to keep others up to date I had one of my outstanding orders change to sent just now, when I looked further it says it was posted yesterday but the history only changed just now, so orders may be packed and shipped but just not showing on our accounts as haveing been done so. This was on a higher priced item so they may be processing things they still make a profit on.

    Fingers crossed for the other 2 and good luck to others waiting.

    Sorry, this is my first time posting - I'm not sure whether my original message was clear.

    I ordered one item from play (£4.99 after using voucher). I've checked my bank account today to find that I was debited £4.95 yesterday and another £4.95 today (for the same item). I think this is a banking problem though because the same has happened with my other account (I have been debited twice for the same item on consecutive days - and this is for something completely different and is not connected to play in any way).

    Still don't know whether this is relevant to your situation though!
