My slot was 8 - 9pm but the site was down the whole time. Got through to the VIP helpline at 8.30pm but all they said was that it would be back up in 10mins & to try them, asked if I could place my order over the phone but she said no. Got on to the site just after 9pm but it wouldn't take my order as I'd missed my slot. Very, very frustrating!
Kept ringing the usual customer service number then (08448448000) & after 3 attempts got through to a lady who was happy to take my order, only one item out of stock. Was a bit horrified when she told me the total of my order but I tell myself that I won't kept it all, lol!0 -

I would hang up & keep hitting redial, got frustrated myself after being on hold for an age but got through almost immediately to someone after just 3 attempts. If I hear that coldplay tune ever again it will be too soon!0 -
