As far as I can see Dells much trumpeted 0% interest offer is a scam as well - if you read the small print the option you have for paying a deposit and then the balance after 12 months to avoid the costly finance plan charges you a £49 admin fee for the pleasure. In my book this is not 0% interest so avoid this people.

anyone who ordered and tracked it. is the UPS an overnight delivery? as mine has just been despatched and I dunno whether to take tomorrow off or thursday to receive it?

thanks in advance

I ordered mine on Saturday but haven't a clue when it will arrive as I have no tracking info as I have no email confirmation.

I might phone Dell and see if they can tell me, but i'm not sure I am up to fighting their system again.

yeah anyone who ordered if they go to track my order on dell, can see the actual shipment date. if they could confirm for me its overnight delivery? thatd be very kind...

UPS site seems to suggest that 'express saver' which dell have used is a guaranteed overnight delivery

they actualy despatched on sunday??? hmmmm... now I dunno if it IS overnight... altho the friday monday one would make sense as an overnight (they wouldnt pay for w/e del).

of course sunday could really mean collected monday.... gar!
