They don't ask for your account when I called up, just your name and order number. In fact, in the process of ordering I never even had to add a company name or details.

The people who called up to confirm; do you have a proper business account? I don't want to ring up to confirm to have them say "you don't have a proper business acount.....CANCELLED. HAHAHAHAH".

NO, you dont need a buisness account, I gave her my name ref number, she never asked what company I was from Etc
 
I tried to get one from the PCW site, but opened wallet to find out that my CC is not there :( called wife to check see if she has it - No answer!!! :( now they are all gone.
 
Well I won't hold out too much hope, but looks like charge been made against my CC has been made and estimated despatch is today. We can only see.
 
Man I wish I was on these boards at 08:42 when you posted.

I managed to get the order through but not 100% if I made it on time :(
 
Got a call from a friend of mine that works in IT that got an alert of these. By the time i got on the page there were only 83 left so ordered 81, just to be on the safe side.

Hoping for the best.









Kidding.

Got onto the payment page for 1x 16gb then realised to myself i didn't actually want/need it. The thrill of the chase led me to this point of constant F5'ing and when the item was right in front of me, even for the discounted price, i just didn't want it lmao.

Good luck and congrats to all the people that managed to pick one up here, hope you enjoy it :D

WHAT THE HELL!

Honestly, 20 minutes out to go and actually do some proper work and this happens.

I think what I have learnt from this is DON'T BELIEVE ANYONE and just have a tab open for every single electrical retailer in the UK and hope for the best.

I honestly hate my life at this moment in time.

Aww well.

If you signed up for an account at the same time your order reference won't be valid until your account has been set up. Try calling them in a couple of hours and hopefully all will be well.

I know.. I know, but honestly. Every single place that has had them, I've missed out by literally 5 minutes. Hahaha. It's quite funny, but it pains me to think about everything I've gone through haha.

Yeah I know what you mean.

My problem is I've always found it too late and just about snagged an order in only to find that my order gets cancelled - very frustrating :confused:
