  • I got an email confirmation from John Lewis, and the payment said it went through - BUT I also got a message to say to contact customer services as "there was a problem"

    So although I got an email, and payment confirmation page - I contacted customer services and they were clueless.

    Hopefully the confirmation email is definetely securing me one!?!

    You were able to register because you were buying something, but that time you weren't quick enough to secure the order, I tried to register this morning with them.

    :beer: Well done for getting one though

    So why not go through the process of buying something to register then cancel the order before the end?

    Surley this way you are a registered customer which will cut down the time entering your details and then hopefully be able to purchase your wii.

    The girls will be so pleased and to be honest it feels like christmas for me already :)

    one thing i had to do though was to try and log in to my account and get them to send the password as it wasn't set up.

    They sent a link which lets you set your own password.

    hope this helps and you get your wii :j

    i will look out and post any stock as they come up, i got a few stock checkers on the go

    Just had a email from john lewis saying a problem with my order.

    So called them and they said my credit card was unathourised !!!!!! as if its an egg money stooze pot with 10k on it.

    So i gave them another number from my visa debit. They said that was also unauthorised...................... why i asked theres enough money in there.

    I said its because its a wii isn't it.

    So i have just gone mad with them and they eventually said my card has now been authorised as a delta card :confused: ????

    what is going on? Not sure im going to get my nieces wii now :(
