They have said that they will consider sending orders out by courier to beat the postal strike, i will believe that when i see it....

i know a day or two wont hurt to wait, but its not fair that every other online companies have sent there's out

Yea but it's not just that woody, the fact that people who didnt pay for express delivey have had theres shipped and will probabily recieve it tomorrow!

have you not heard about the national postal strike that starts thursday, they are on strike for 2 days thursday and friday, and saturday delivery is on a limited delivery scale, so unless it is sent out by courier then you wont get it till monday and thats if your lucky.

Unless it has been sent 1st Class which means it should arrive tomorrow, before it all kicks off

Which mine has

i am in two minds to ring OcUK ans see if i can pick up 2 copies and stuff them

i swear i will never buy from there again

Sylver123 · 20 Oct 2009 at 17:07

It now says on the product description page on every windows 7 version on OcUK, *****SHIPPING WEDNESDAY 21st OCTOBER*****, so we that got the next day delivery service option might possibly get it on thursday, friday as long as the postal strikes doesn`t delay it.

Had an email earlier saying mine had been shipped so should get it tomorrow, which means i'll spend most of tonight backing everything up on my external hard drive so when i get it ill shove it straight on.

But if you are still running the RC, I wouldn't use it as an excuse not to install the full retail product.

Wow harrass them enough and they post, I emailed them moaning saying how **** they are, and I just got a email back saying they have shipped it and a tracking number

PaulGreyhead · 20 Oct 2009 at 17:38

I read earlier that they are not using Royal Mail at all due to the strike, and are using couriers for all deliveries.

Dark_Angel · 20 Oct 2009 at 17:40

Sorry if this has already been asked.

If I don't order it today / tomorrow does that mean the price will go up later on this month?

Which delivery method did you use? Just sent them an e mail myself, not happy that people who didn't even pay for delivery have had there's dispatched first.

I preordered mine from one of the larger places and I got an email today saying it was shipped via citylink and that it will be here tomorrow (they usually always use royal mail). Already have it installed, just need my key to activate. I must say, I am absolutely loving Win 7!

A copy of Home Premium I ordered arrived at my parents' house yesterday

I won't be needing it at this time, so I don't mind not having it in hand.

Who have they shipped it with?

I have the opperunity to purchase a US license for Professional, would that work if I used it with a copy from works Action Pack?

The bummer is I need two licenses and £320 is not doable
