Both mine are showing as despatched and i ordered between 7.30 and 8.00am??

Maybe it depends how big and what the order includes as to how they are working through them? Mines slippers and a couple of sancutary sets and then 2 ted sets on a different order

Its just let me order the topman sets with beanine hats as well - although i expect this to be canx lol

That is such a slap in the face for those that waited up all night and are still waiting for dispatch confirmation.

Mine still saying processed.

I've had this happen with loads of differen websites,people who have ordered stuff after me after get it & I don't

It's as if they work from the top & not the other way around.

I would love to know how this seems to happen on a regular basis,why are the early orders at the bottom of the pile so to speak.

I placed all of my orders very soon after the sale started.

I got an email not long ago to say that the second out of my 3 orders has been dispatched and they are both supposed to be delivered tomorrow by DPD. Just waiting to hear about the 3rd order now. Need to go out to my WW class in the morning so hope they come while I'm in or leave it with a neighbour - assuming they turn up at all. I'll have to get up extra early to have a shower in case they come very early.

Does anyone know whether they send text messages or phone to say they're on the way? I've had quite a few couriers do that in the past but not sure whether DPD is one of them.

DPD usually send an email giving an hour time slot that they will deliver within, usually accurate in my experience.

Re the orders, it may not necessarily be the time of the order that is the issue but whether there is stock at your providing warehouse as I don't believe boots stock from one single warehouse for the whole country?

I was going to say its unfair to those who waited up, I waited up bu didnt get order till about 3.40am have ordered 2x ted baker sets I'm northwest of the country our boots stores did have loads left though ( not sure if applicable)
It was the razor scooter I thought would be cancelled as £15 down from £60 but it looks like been dispatched as no cancelations
To those waiting good luck x

I ordered around 4am one order for me (small - no mates) and one for my sister (bigger - too many friends), both as pick ups as did not trust things to be undamaged.

No email but showing as dispatched on boots site for pick up monday.

Don't think its to do with the amount of the order or the time, think sjprmc01 may be right its more likely to do with which warehouse is sending out your stuff.

Got despatch email about half hour ago. I had ordered 5.35 wednesday morning. Looks like everything I ask for Im getting.

Hope everyone gets their parcels.

But then that means people in certain areas don't get certain things no matter the time they order? So, someone who orders 7 hours later, in a different area gets an order and you don't?

If that's how it works it doesn't seem very professional, or give you confidence in the reliability of placing orders.

You would surely think if they are selling items for hours after you've placed your order they must have them. Or at least, I think that's what most people expect when ordering from large retailers like Boots.

I'm also disappointed after placing my order at around 5 am to have about 1/3 of the order cancelled and not received the full £15 off voucher I used. I've had no problem ordering from Boots in the past and am both surprised and disappointed to find their stock control system appears to be plunging towards the depths of Marks & Spencer and Tesco's.
