How do you know you have been 2nd in queue from 17th 2pm and where are you in the official Queue emailed to you.
CS have been giving different stories depending who you speak to and cannot give queue positions reliably anyway.

To be fair, look at the date on my forums account - I've been buying stuff from OcUK for well over 20 years. Vega 56 pre-order worked like a dream. Customer service with a faulty MSI card before that was sorted efficiently when MSI were messing me around.
A bit of loyalty gets you so far, but even I'm starting to feel tested at the moment.
I'm not angry, just disappointed.

Where is that from? Wasn't aware of that. Not bothered anyway as I doubt it would be free next day. Which is what I got. I hate waiting for packages. Always rather use DPD next day.
On other notes. For anyone who cares about EVGA seeing a few people who purchased the EVGA 3080, 3090s of competitor. Been getting them this week.
https://twitter.com/GameMovieEnter1/status/1314374165735059456?s=19 so I guess EVGA has been shipping them at least to EU hopefully for you EVGA guys start to get them in OCUK soon.
The Gigabyte Eagle is an OC card, there is no NON OC Eagle, hence why you are wrong.
no your wrong dude... there is EAGLE OC and EAGLE (NONE OC) ... https://imgur.com/gallery/eTTUuyE
from gigabyte site... https://gyazo.com/9ecebaefd6616807c54591d50d99f26d?token=6f700de777e6d4f5497827607abdb409 shows both 3080 EAGLE OC and 3080 EAGLE
That's because bigger retailers like Amazon are aware that if you decide to give up on the order between order time and dispatch - even if it takes few months - they will get rid of the stock they order for you without issues or return it to manufacturrer without any problems.
That doesn't mean you have been 2nd in queue since purchase, there has been a LOT of time between the 17th and when the queue was released.

It is free next day, FYI.
Personally I prefer they take the money now than later. I know I can afford having the money taken from my account just now. I don't know for sure what my finances will be like in a month's time and would rather £800 doesn't randomly disappear from my balance whenever they decide to ship my order as that would completely screw up my budgeting for the month.
I don't personally see any issue with the money being in "their account" for a few months. In my mind, I've made the purchase and paid for it. It's reassuring to know I can cancel at any time and get it back if I need to, but whether the money is in my account ready to be taken by OCUK or sitting in their account is neither here nor there for me.
Besides, if it means they can ship stock faster knowing whoever they're shipping to has already paid rather than having to wait for payment to clear, and making sure whoever they're billing still has the funds etc. then that can only be a plus for me.

bit quiet today

That's fine, I can see your point. Opinions may differ.
I'm using a Credit Card for the protections. Not everyone can clear it straight away.
