  • I have just been on the carphone warehouse site and it states that the wii would be dispatched after 14days of the contract starting and to allow 7 days for delivery. I may be wrong but i would very much doubt if anyone received there wii before xmas. With all the major retailers struggling big time to secure stock - how does carphone warehouse secure so many wiis when they sell thousands of contracts a day.
  • I checked the terms and it said that all orders placed before 7 December will have the free gift despatched before 20 December.

    I'm not going to hold my breath but i'll be more than happy if it arrives!

    I needed a new phone anyway so fingers crossed I've got both in time for Christmas :)
  • I wondered the same with the ebay sellers - where the eck do they find all their wii's?!! :)

    Just had an afterthought. My OH's brother works at Carphone Warehouse. I should have had a word with him before ordering online. Me and my impulses ;D
  • I ordered a Wii with woolworths today, logged out of my account and tried to log back in - but it says invalid username id. I know the password is 110% correct. I think i might have put the wrong email address in.

    What should i do as the email address i thought it was has received no order confirmation or any emails from Woolworths.

    Seems that some people who ordered the bundle from Argos on Friday morning are getting theirs delivered.

    I didn't get a confirmation email and have not received anything yet.

    Should I be worried?

    Have you checked spam? My woolies emails always go to my spam folder - otherwise ring them and ask them to check you address/cc details against orders placed.
  • Nope - not is spam :(

    Bit worried
  • Awww Nokia, give them a call tomorrow.
    Did you make a note of your order number?
    Incidentally I am not guaranteed a Wii - mine also says back order or pre-release so I shall keep looking.
    Whereabouts roughly are you in the UK? Maybe some kind soul will keep a look out too, if you are not too far away for collection.
    :heart: Ageing is a privilege not everyone gets.
  • Right, listen up folks.... I may be wrong... but please bear me out.

    There have been a couple of "Bursts" of Nintendo's over the past 6 weeks or so, and every time, there has been an advert for Wii Games of some sort on primetime TV, a day or two before they arrive in the shops.

    Nintendo are not stupid, so I would not think that they would waste a considerable amount of money on advertsing just to promote e-Bay.

    I would suggest that a couple of containers have arrived in a port somewhere in the UK.

    Softlii softlii catchii wii

    (and the advert has just been on TV Celebrity Jungle thing)

    I am in Coventry - been offered a Wii at just a bit over rrp price plus postage but i am just a but dubious out paying into a bank account for a person i have never met and just spoke to on the phone.

    If you type your order number in - it says delivery date which says 10 dec for me which is a monday and the start of my week off in which i will be searching for wiis all day long lol.
