CPW won't email you saying it's been cancelled. When I cancelled mine due to CPW being incompetent and clueless, I too was told an email would come. It did not.

Don't buy from CPW is all I can say. they are useless.

I didn't get a email either and I agree with you CPW are useless, I'm never buying from them again!

I accidentally ordered the regular when i wanted to edge. I went online to the webform and sent a message asking for cancellation. Less than 24 hours later I got an email saying the order was cancelled.

The only thing that annoyed me was I had to call up and arrange the refund.
 
Both my quick charge anker plugs turned up today. Very impressed with the build quality for only a tenner each. I know some of you may say, but it's only a plug who cares. Very happy purchase. :D

Anker has great hardware, love their cables they last forever and take a beating.

Weird fetishist alert :o

I have 2x Aukey ones, will get some Anker ones too. Got a QC2.0 one in the car too, so sorted in that department. Wish there were phone holders for cars with wireless bases built in. 10-15w ones of course to account for charging while in use (music/satnav etc).

Got mine about 2 weeks ago, agreed nice build. Being QC3.0 lets hope it's still compatible with whatever Samsung puts out.

Adv's of 3.0 over 2.0

Faster and less heat produced due to INOV.

The major new feature with 3.0 is INOV (Intelligent Negotiation for Optimum Voltage), which allows for a fined tuned power output and a more optimized charging cycle. Firstly, different batteries require different charging voltages. Version 2.0 supported four modes at varying power levels, 5 volts/2amps, 9V/2A, 12V/1.67A, and a 20 volt option. Quick Charge 3.0’s INOV communicates with the device to request any voltage between 3.2V and 20V at 200mV increments, allowing for a wider selection of voltages.

INOV has the added benefit of being able to dynamically adjust the charging voltage over the battery charging cycle. As a battery charges up, it slowly draws less and less current, which is partly why it takes longer to charge the last 20 percent than the first. Qualcomm states that its new technology allows the phone to request just enough voltage to reach the desired charge current, thereby maximising efficiency.

This is useful as it reduces the amount of energy wasted during charging. Previously, extra power not used to charge the battery would be lost as heat, warming up your phone and reducing the longevity of the battery. By exerting more control over charging efficiency, less power is wasted, resulting in less heat. Qualcomm states that version 3.0 is up to 38 percent more efficiency than 2.0, which is a substantial energy saving.

Cool, thanks. I was looking at what came with the S6 and it looked like a standard one.

Probably looks the same design, but should have fast adaptive charger written on it, and the 9V 1.67A rating.

Hmmmm, credit score of 994 and turned down for PayPal credit. WTF.

Credit score is just a number based on factors the company you use for the score thinks are relevant.

There could be parts of your credit file which PP credit has rules in to ignore or treat negatively. While these might be overall positive factors, could just be PP credit doesn't like them.

For example maybe PP credit wants people who just pay the minimum monthly payments or never clear the balance. While it's always a positive to us to clear the balance and avoid interest, it doesn't make much profit.

I'm just theorizing though.
 
960 quids worth they say. danger zone...

I need to finish my degree and get a good job before i start messing with credit. I have no will power. As is clearly stated by the fact that i immediately at 1am purchased an S7 Edge lol.

Now to find the best sim only deal, thinking BTs top tier sim looks a good shout £20 a month for unlimited calls, texts, 20GB of data and unlimited BT wi-fi hotspots. Can't seem to find anything coming close to that.

Just ordered a black S7 Edge from Samsung. Stupidly got it sent to my home address when I'll most likely be in the office. Grr.
