    Just spoken to customer services as had no confirmation screen but entered my details twice! Spoke to my bank and they have said they have tried to take money 4 times. Spoken to orange they said bank will hold payment for 2-3 days then just cancel order!!! Hopefully! Shame as really wanted one :(

    just rang them, as i got service unavailable when i went through to verifing my payment details.

    he said that the money will be held with my bank and released back to me in a couple of days, he also said that all promotional items were out of stock:mad:

    i mentioned that the site still says instock so why have they not closed the items, he said they were in the process of doing just that.:mad:

    bloody shame as i only wanted a couple of harddrives :(

    if anyone is wants to sell me one i would be gratefull ;)

    From their terms and conditions

    B. PURCHASE OF PRODUCTS

    8. orders


    All orders are subject to acceptance and availability. If the goods ordered are not available, you will be notified by e-mail (or by other means if no e-mail address has been provided) and you will have the option either to wait until the item is available from stock or to cancel your order. Any orders placed by you will be treated as an offer to purchase the goods or services from us and we have the right to reject such offers at any time. You acknowledge that any automated acknowledgment of your order which you may receive from us shall not amount to our acceptance of your offer to purchase goods or services advertised on the Website. The conclusion of a contract between you and us will take place when we (i) debit your credit or debit card or (ii) despatch the goods to you or commence the services, whichever is the earlier.
    We will take all reasonable care, in so far as it is in our power to do so, to keep the details of your order and payment secure, but in the absence of negligence on our part we cannot be liable for any loss you may suffer if a third party procures unauthorised access to any data provided by you when accessing or ordering from the Website.

    Each good or service purchased is sold subject to additional specific terms and conditions related to that good or service including, without limitation, terms and conditions concerning estimated delivery times and any warranties. Please ensure that you read such additional terms.
    This is the important bit about their terms and conditions so if anyone has had the "payment" actually taken from their bank this is a binding contract i would assume

    "The conclusion of a contract between you and us will take place when we (i) debit your credit or debit card or (ii) despatch the goods to you or commence the services, whichever is the earlier."
  • gutted if anyone bought an extra two and somehow dont require them ill gladly pay for them. :)

    You need to ensure that the money has actually been taken and not earmarked. It is not always obvious which has occurred.

    well

    just spoke to them and they said - no confirmation email, no sale.

    I just think its best to avoid these in future - clearly unreliable company if they can not run a website
