Just a quick question in case anyone might know, does the PAL PS4 come with a Playstation Plus trial in the box - and is it valid for lapsed accounts?

Also has Lego Marvel been delayed in Europe as well? I'm down to one launch game now.

 

[Addnan]

Could anyone vouch if Yodel are a good courier? I haven't heard amazing things about their service.

Haven't had any problems. I have a delivery pretty much every week from them.

Great... Now I just have images of hearing the van go by, running out and seeing my new PS4 in a broken smashed pile.

 

[KingofGourds]

Amazon have seriously gone to shit, I had Prime too. Then I got stuff later than when I wasn't a member.

Yeah. I feel bad because I signed up to Prime trial and thought "great!" and told everyone else in my family about it, we all signed up and our orders all went to shit.

Never again.

My one has changed back to preparing for dispatch ;_;

What's happening.

Okay, it's been shipped via DPD. I've only had good business with them so happy. Currently at Oldbury (basically Birmingham unless there's another Oldbury). I'm not expecting it until 3 or 4 o'clock tomorrow!

Anyone who's ordered from Amazon UK and lives in the UK - what's your shipping method listed as in the order? Mine says First Class which is certainly not guaranteed next day and has yet to be shipped. Marked as 'Dispatching Now', whatever that means.

Called support and they promised that it would be sent by the end of the day. To be fair, my copy of NFS: Rivals was shipped last night at 19:00 so it's possible but, when you say First Class, I think Royal Mail, and that ain't next day.

I also wondered about this. I asked the guy I chatted to earlier and he said it would definitely be signature required job so not Royal Mail first class. It's highly unlikely they would ship a £400 order via Royal Mail first class post. Anyways I trust Amazon to to screw this up so I'll just leave them to it.

 

[Zafir]

Yeah I've had a number of orders come late using prime. Either due to Amazon shipping to late for royal mail or yodel being useless (Driver lost the package in his van).

 

[Mr Solo Dolo]

Anyone know who Game are using for delivery? Can't find a tracking number anywhere.

IT GOT DISPATCHED

So happy right now. It's in Swansea

DPD for me..

 

[Adamm]

Does anyone know what date the payment came out of the bank for the ps4 on Amazon?

Amazon says mine was rejected on 21st November & that's why I'll get mine a day late.

That doesn't make sense

 

[mrklaw]

Oddly, GAME told me they wouldn't be putting my killzone bundle in a bag, because they don't have any bags big enough. I'm sure I've had some huge bags from them before. So as a PSA, might be worth taking a large carrier bag with you tonight/tomorrow if you have the big killzone bundle, unless you're fine walking through your local shopping centre with a naked PS4 box.

They took payment for mine yesterday.

 

[Ark]

Ordered 11th June, payment taken yesterday afternoon, order was dispatched at 11:53am today via DPD and is currently at Oldbury. Ordered via non-prime first class.

Fucking stoked; hopefullu it arrives whn I'm actually home tomorrow.

By the way, stop reading into prime/first class with the PS4. Everyone is getting the best delivery method for their area.

F**kin' 'ell. That's a mental queue. This is PS2 hype levels surely... maybe more?

 

[uncleniccius]

Prime member here with Expedited delivery on mine.
Still no dispatch

 

[SymbiantXenos]

A bit silly but im re watching Sony's E3 2013.

 

[nib95]

Gameseek just delivered my PS4. It's actually my second. I ordered two in case one got cancelled or delayed, luckily my brother in law needs one anyway so all good. My Amazon one will likely arrive tomorrow.

I feel special. PS4 one day early woo!

 

[Mr Moose]

I'm in exactly the same boat, First Class and Dispatching Now.

It's too big for "first class" shipment via Royal Mail anyway.

Mine says Expedited and Dispatching now (has been like that for a few hours)

Damn launch days, nerve wracking stuff, I just want my PS4.
I'll be stroking the box when I get it "my precious".

Amazon have also shipped mine by DPD. Never used them before. Hope they are reliable.

 

[DeyTukRJerbs]

My Amazon Mega Bundle + FIFA has dispatched via DPD.

Everyone stuck on Dispatching Now don't worry. You will have it tomorrow.

Same. C'mooooon DPD. Go collect from ShopTo already!

 

[jiggles]

Wow that is really ridiculous. Do you get a email after you chatted with "support" in the UK aswell. In Germany you can leave feedback aka 0/10 and contact me to resolve that issue - and most of the times you get someone calling you who is really in a position to help you out. Those chat support people seem to have a huge FAQ and thats about it.

Says specifically you don't get a reply to the feedback form. The only "call me" thing is to begin the whole conversation anew.

 

[DBT85]

Interestingly while my PS4 went from "Preparing for Dispatch", and then "Now dispatching", BF4 and my charging dock are both still just "pre ordered"

Though I';m sure I saw one of them say Preparing earlier.

I think the payment was taken. CC looks ill.

 

[ThePeoplesBureau]

Spent all day F5ing my Amazon UK order page, no movement from 'Dispatching Now'. Drive back from the office, get home... and while sorting through my post, my phone buzzes at me...

Courier is DPD, coming in one big juicy care package including dualshock charging station, vertical stand, camera clip and, err.. a copy of Super Mario 3D World

*palpable relief*

 

[NeonDelta]

My Amazon Mega Bundle + FIFA has dispatched via DPD.

Everyone stuck on Dispatching Now don't worry. You will have it tomorrow.

When did yours change to dispatching soon?

 

[Lucid07]

Two parcels for me tomorrow from DPD a PS4 from amazon and one from ShopTo too!!!

 

[Raxious]

So apparently the Gamer Bundle has a Chinese PS4

Don't bother, DPD will email/text you with delivery date and that is when the code will go active.

 

[RulkezX]

Just dispatched via DPD o/

Now what to buy tomorrow , Mario , AC4 or Lego Marvel.

 

[systemfehler]

Says specifically you don't get a reply to the feedback form. The only "call me" thing is to begin the whole conversation anew.

Damn in that case it is different in Germany. Maybe start a new chat or call directly if that is an option and just demand a manager instead of explaining some minion everything again.

 

[Xater]

Still nothing shipped. Amazon better pays those express prices for tomorrow.

 

[Spencaroo]

Impatiently waiting for my DPD tracking to become active!! COMEONNNN!!

Also - did get my hands on a PS4 unit in GAME earlier. Quit out of Fifa to choose another demo, chose Knack, PS4 system crashed with static sound coming out of the second DS4. And thats my first PS4 experience.

Hope I dont have that presence with every PS4..

 

[Loomba]

Oh god....

Spoiler

I've ordered a standard

Still at 'Now Dispatching', ffs. There's only so much PS3 FIFA 13 I can handle before I tear my hair out.

rumour has it the Chinese build tend to be the ones failing while the Japanese build are more solid

They are amazing from my experience. I live out in the sticks and, even here, I can track the van on Maps and they always turn up within the specified time.

 

[Krakle]

Amazon Mega bundle has just been dispatched via Amazon Logistics (Prime).

 

[PierrePressure]

Mine is being delivered by Yodel which is a bit worrying but I have been speaking to them via twitter and they have been very helpful.
