  • i just phoned up there customer services to ask about the £10 top up and they say it can take up to 5 working days for it to appear
  • Just tried my luck emailing Paul Edney. Taking too many orders for stock is one thing repeatedly lying to customers is another.

    Today I went for the E8 after being told there were only 100 left and no more F210s ever.
    I am sure in a few days another lot of F210s will be posted out again like happened before but it is to big a risk to take when the e8 is running out.

    Did you not have to sign for it? I did.

    Whatever would have happened if someone had nicked it? Orange would have to send you another one surely? ;)

    It wasn't signed for - just left on my doorstep a day late. Orange obviously know the IMEI/SIM numbers and I couldn't be that dishonest tbh!
    :rolleyes:

    I ORDERED THE F210 + SIM READER AND £10 CREDIT (TOTAL £30.00) ON THE 28TH, TOLD IT WOULD BE DELIVERED ON THE 30TH AND I WAITED IN ALL DAY (LOST MONEY) NO PHONE ARRIVED.....
    GOT THE EMAIL FROM ORANGE ON MON 5TH OF JAN, RANG THEM THAT DAY AND CHOSE ROKR E8 AS ALTERNATIVE, TOLD IT WOULD BE PRIORITY DELIVERY ON THURSDAY (8TH) WAITED IN AGAIN, (LOST MORE MONEY!) THEN NO DELIVERY AGAIN. RANG THEM JUST NOW AND THEY SAY NO ORDER ON SYSTEM, EVEN THOUGH I HAVE VALID ORDER NUMBER! NOW THEY SAY IT WILL ALL BE DELIVERED ON MONDAY (12TH). NO APOLOGIES EITHER! TAKING THE P##S! I THINK, OH AND I WENT BANK YESTERDAY AND THEY DEBITED THE MONEY FROM MY ACCOUNT ON THE 30TH.......:mad:

    i have had totally the same experience as you i ordered the sim thing aswell and not having delivery til monday i ordered too on the same day as you your story is a mirror image of mine:mad:

    Hiya just spoke to orange today and was told they couldn't complete my order (boo!!) anyway got the young lad to speak to his manager and RESULT! they offered me two other types of phone one was a samsung (YUK) but the other was a MOTOROKR™ E8 ( nice!) said I should get it delivered next week! (here we go again LOL!) here's hoping! :j

    HOOORRAAY! got my E8 today, within 1 day of speaking to orange. Also got this speaker pack with it really cool.
    :rotfl:
  • Incidentally, my F210 was the black one even though it says blue on the box. Still no sign of my credit - 10 minutes indeed! Guess I'll leave it a week or so then - thanks madinternetuser!
  • Got my E8 today but guess what? No sim. Got to wait three days.

    What, they run out of sim cards now? :confused:

    This has been the most disastrous online order I have ever made!

    Mine's black too - hadn't even noticed. No £10 credit yet either.
    (but I have unlocked it and quite happy!)
