    The f210 just got delivered to me! Fortunately that I was indoor today. I'm not sure what to make of the whole thing.

    Well the phone is cute and a lot smaller than I thought. Now I'm going to unlock it. :)

    #Just unlocked the phone with the samsung v4.0.4 as advise by a helpful member on here.
    I wonder whether I will also get the moto e8 deliver as well, wishful thinking :)
  • I've emailed them back and said that i can't understand how they can take orders and then not fulfil them, especially as it's not as if the phone is being discontinued.:confused:

    I also said i'm happy to wait for new stock to arrive. I doubt i'll even get a response, but i'm not happy to just sit back and accept their alternatives.

    Have they just mis priced it and now have realised how much it's gonna cost them? I think from my point of view, this is the first time i've ever ordered anything from Orange (my phone's with O2) and to be honest i'm not overly impressed with their customer service.

    I've just had the email, I've picked the Rokr E8 as an alternative, it looks cuter than the F210 :)

    There was no dispatch email for me so I wouldn't worry if I was you.

    I received my 2 F210's today and received no dispatch emails so wouldn't worry either.
  • I have been told by Orange that they have an extra 200 coming in.
    They had 600 phones and got 6000 orders.
    I guess they are hoping most people will take the other phones that they do have in stock so as not to have to reorder the f210 at a loss.

    I don't know what to do. The E8 will probably be out of stock very soon.

    I have now recieved an email telling me I will not be getting f210 phone! I don't know who is telling the truth, or who to believe.

    I have to say this last page of this thread with phones arriving randomly has cracked me up!:rotfl: What on earth is going on in Orangeland.
  • i've just got the dreaded email. I ordered the next day after the thread was first started but it looks as though whoever gets them is completely random bar those that ordered on the 26th. I might just sit on it until they get new stock in which has to be some point soon as it's a popular phone
    :D
