Mobiles.co.uk closed?

Does anyone know if the site has gone bust?

I ordered a phone at 0630am online this morning and, to find out if I have passed my credit check, called them up only to find an answerphone message that says they are closed?!

What the figo? What kind of company is shut at 330pm on a Tuesday?

They won't be shut but they probably won't be back from the pub yet

Fair play just seems weird that every number you call says that the office is closed. If it was a Friday I could understand...

It's not unusual it seems to happen a fair bit when they forget to switch it off or something.
I wouldn't worry about it as it's probably going to be the least of your worries now

Oh goody.

Care to elaborate?

Silk is right. You'll find out the hard way - there're several volumes on here is you care to search (which you really should have done beforehand. CPW companies regularly attract panic postings about going bust.... bit boring correcting it all each time!

I take it you didn't research them before you ordered from them ???

Not many do - the lure of an unmissable deal and the misperception that cpw is trustworthy and reliable...!

I done a search for mobiles.co.uk actually so no need for the smart !!!! replies of threads two years old.

Got an email from their marketing manager. Apparently they are on a 'training day'.
