    My account doesn't even say that they have been ordered...I haven't had an email yet or letter cancelling but my account shows I haven't ordered them when I have a confirmation email when i first did???

    nothing on my account to say it was ordered either. I also never received a confirmation email, even though it accepted my payment details.
  • i can't access my account online so don't know if there is any record.

  • interesting that apayment has been deducted. offer to treat accepted, they cant back out!

    It says in the "confirmation" letter that the contract is not formed until the item is despatched, not when the money is taken, so until the item has left their warehouse you don't have a leg to stand on.

    TheFlyingGerbil is correct on this one. Also, it is an invitation to treat, not an offer to treat.
    Gone ... or have I?

    Yes, this happened to alot of people with the Argos 43p tv. money deducted, but it meant nothing!:rotfl:

  • It looks as if they are taking the money out of my account. My available balance is £35 ish less than my current balance.

    Fingers crossed

    Just to confirm, I paid by visa delta card and the funds look to have been allocated from my barclays account.

    same here, funds seemed to have been allocated, this might be automatic though when you actually originally clicked to confirm payment :undecided

    I had the £34.45 your order is being processed confirmation email at the time of ordering, but when I log into my account today there is no record of the order. Expect they've just cancelled it and doubt they'll even make further contact. Some you win, some you lose.

    Sony dvd players are rubbish. Okay, I bought mine a few years ago. It was surround sound and it cost £250 but it stopped reading the discs after a couple of years - exactly the same problem as the Sony Ps2's. You can read about all the problems there are with Sony dvd's online. I used to think Sony was one of the best manufacturer's but not any more. :mad: Far happier with my cheaper dvd player and recorder.

    If you don't get it you've probably had a lucky escape!
