Free delivery?

Meaker · 23 Jan 2009 at 14:16

I just got over the 100 posts mark, how long does it take for free delivery to register on my account, I have linked it.

Should be instant?

Maccy · 23 Jan 2009 at 14:19

Says here -

This offer applies to

OcUK Forums members who have 250 or more posts and have been registered for over 90 days, or

OcUK Forums members who have been registered for over 12 months and made at least 100 posts

So should be instant

Should an extra option appear or do I just select standard delivery?

MiNxYyY · 23 Jan 2009 at 14:21

I had this problem a few times actually,sometimes it pops up with DHL free delivery and sometimes it only offers me free delivery wth royal mail.

Contact a don if you keep having problems.

Should appear like this -

Ah.

Could possibly be the reason.

I thought free delivery was for all of mainland uk? (used to be ok for me when i lived in the mainland)

Its deffinatally not free sending it to islands and the "outlying" postcodes (silly Northern Irealand for example)

Dont you have to update your account. I had to do that.

Log in to your account and make sure you enter your forum details. Once you have done that it should be instant

Does my shopping account have to be older than 1 year too?

Meaker · 23 Jan 2009 at 15:34

Where do I get help about the free shipping? (don help?)

Sorry for the somewhat duplicate nature of this thread but who do I contact about getting this sorted, I wanted to order one of the GTX280s

Email them or send a webnote. This isn't the place for shop talk.

JohnnyG · 23 Jan 2009 at 15:43

I'll see if I can point a shop dude this way

Yewen · 23 Jan 2009 at 23:48

Post in the customer support forum and we will be more than happy to assist, alternatively please send in a webnote and we will see what we can do.

Dave M · 23 Jan 2009 at 23:58

Go to your account page (on the shop website), go to me and my account and scroll down to the forums bit, put your forum login in and the accounts will be linked.

Dave M · 24 Jan 2009 at 00:47

Update, do it again, if you linked before you scored 100 posts it will have linked the account as not eligible for free shipping. If you do it again it will re-validate your post count and join date and give you the free shipping options.
