Correct, you'll need the disc inserted if you want to fast swap. One of the many advantages proposed by the digital only / license locking system originally announced by MS with the X1. Destroyed by an overreacting internet population that didn't understand the future. Be interesting what would happen if they announced the old system again, people might be up for it this time!
Thank you, I have "allegedly" got one too.
It's people cancelling their pre-orders.
Very has it linked with a live system, so they will keep popping up, where as most have just completely locked them out for now.
Might take a couple of days to get confirmation email though, as always does when it's a mass order launch like this.

true.
Would like to see some kind of account association with the disk versions but that would require some kind of unique identifier on each disk. Then remove the need for the disk to be in the drive.
Had a confirmation text from them, hopefully they honour it.
Exactly what MS proposed. Also you could sell your digital licenses (2nd hand market) and they allowed 3rd party sales fronts (So Game, Amazon etc. would have actual Xbox apps selling games). Ugh it was such a good idea, just classic MS about a decade early.
Does anyone know when very will take the first payment I selected the buy now pay later. Just incase it somehow fell through so I could cancel it. I have intention in paying in full but hoped it would be on dispatch not from now.
if it’s BNPL your first payment is due in 12 months from date of order, so 12 months today if you ordered today. Pay in full before then and you’ll not pay any interest. You can leave it until the very last day to pay off too.
Depends on the term you agreed when you bought it, 6/9/12 months.
They don't take a payment during this time (except the cost of delivery), the term is just how long you have to pay it off before they add interest. You have two choices;
1. Pay it off before the BNPL term ends = no interest, price you pay is the price of the console
2. Let it go onto account, they will charge interest on the whole BNPL term which will be quite a bit as their APR is horrendous. You will then start paying monthly at whatever their minimum payment % is.
In short utilise BNPL just make sure you pay it off before the term ends otherwise lube up.

Just had my ShopTo pre order registration email come through. States this doesn't guarantee release day delivery or stock - had my order confirmed with Amazon yesterday so cancelling ShopTo.
It's accurate can set alarm to go off as well.
Just stay logged in on sites so you can check out quickly when they pop up.
Very keeps flapping up and down as well if people still need.
It's a very good site. Remember using it a lot when there were no PS4's or XB1's anywhere. People are quick to forget that this happens with every new launch and goes on for months afterwards. Which, to me, is why scalping is a dick move.
I'm the same, I'm not desperate for a PS5 on Day 1... but would be nice.
Cause they least in a personnel experience sell stock they don't have.
Few others here pre ordered when they claimed to have stock, got charged and then it was cancelled.
Been reported on sixthaxis as well.
Until digital games become a reasonable cost on consols it won't ever take off imo
