they must have changed it then ,in my previous experience you get an hour and if you don't have items in your basket in that hour you lose your slot. I suppose they might give you extra time to checkout.
so is your slot 7-11 or 7 til midnight?No longer lost in debt!0 -
nope she wouldnt book me one on the phone either0

The slots are longer now as when the site crashes people couldnt get logged in as they were timed out so now longer slots mean you might still get a chance.f1re_cr4cker wrote: »thanks emsweaver got my slot 7pm tuesday! i blagged it a bit and said that my friend had rang and got her slot so could she do mine and i have the email confirming it!
Hmm funny how no one else has been able to book a slot yet over the phone if they are letting others.Kyle 03.04.04

7-11pm is a long time, can see their systems not coping again
i thought they introduced the half hour limit last year, to cut down on too many people logging in at once
also theres usually a 5pm slot
