Having ordered with Dixons back in September and having been told that I was getting a launch day machine, they then went on to explain that it could take 14 - 21 days to deliver - they are having a laugh.
Apparently because I ordered via their website, (and not at a particular shop), they will require this extra time to deliver.
In any event, following numerous shouting matches, (and a call to their London regional office), they have agreed to bring forward their delivery schedule to today....most people will still not get their PS2 until after this Friday, but I, (and a few other lucky people), will get a machine before anyone else. I have been told it will arrive Wednesday afternoon or Thursday morning. I suggest other Dixons customers ring up and say the same. Happy gaming

Possibly, but not definitely. EB in Staines, had 90-odd pre-order forms, and only 40-odd are collectable on launch day, so you wouldn't have been 'guaranteed' one. I take your point though.

I am a having similar problems with special reserve. i pre-ordered back in march. at the time they were promising delivery to your door on release day. i even had to pay them £3 extra for 1st class delivery, something hey did not disclose at time of pre-order. now when i phoned to find out when i will receive my ps2 they tell me it could be on release day on sometime during the next week.

i'm so p*ssed off. i might as well have saved my deposit until september and ordered one from EB. at least i would be assured of collecting it on release day!

Yes, I demand a reward for my sick sense of humour.

No, not for you - but it'd screw Dixons - which would be funny - for me, anyway.

10/10
Over the years I've become very jaded after many bad experiences with customer services, you have bucked the trend. Polite and efficient from the Freeola team, well done to all involved.
Wonderful...
... and so easy-to-use even for a technophobe like me. I had my website up in a couple of hours. Thank you.
