They seem to be doing a good enough job of destroying their business without any help.

Their biggest problem is their attitude, they need to sell phones to people, not networks. Get on our side and look after our interests, stuff the networks.

This is the problem with "exclusive" deals, its relies on the network operator / retailer to get all the information out there. In the UK's case we have to rely on updates from EE / P4U which have been getting very conflicting views. So the delays in the UK are DOWN to EE, as they have been having problems with there own firmware which from past experiences seems pretty normal with Orange.

It also comes down the commercials as well, what Nokia signed with EE. Its little things like that like that which can make a big difference to the communications to the pubic.

Nokia have been very good traditionally in the past at support, take for example the Lumia 900 and the camera problems. In a matter of weeks Nokia had released a fixed and the problem was all corrected. How many companies can rival that sort of support.
 
The most irritating thing is all the hype, the advertisements, the reviews and ultimately the inability to have the handset in your hands. :rolleyes:

Indeed. Having ordered and cancelled (except for Amazon) from GSM Nation, Digital Phone, EE, Cyberport and now Amazon.de I'm getting a bit fed up.

Call me impulsive, impatient or an idiot if you will but I want to pay my money and get what I want.

You pre-ordered one from Amazon? How come you gave up on Cyberport?

They didn't accept debit cards and I don't have the photo ID required as I've mailed my driving licence to a financial advisor as proof of my ID. Which may take a few days to get back to me. I'm away this weekend on work too, so that would add further delay.

PayPal was going to charge a lot for the exchange from GBP Euros. Total cost would have been around £533, the Amazon price is going to be around £480 odd.

With Amazon I can just click a button to cancel if I want too.

Someone posted this on Nokia UK's Facebook page:

"I've just called phones 4 u and they said the release date is now the 14th of December due to software problems on the 920 relating to 4g. Some clarification please"

Some info here:

This seemed to be the P4U reply on facebook

Phones 4u Hi Muhammed, this info is incorrect. The Nokia Lumia 920's will be in store from Saturday. Thanks, Espi.

Saturday is a week late! Why couldn't they make a big fuss of a date like apple do and stick to it. You might even see people que for it and generate publicity. But now it's just a big mess.
