Samsung s8 pre-orders

Anonymous
Not applicable
Hi everyone, I have pre-ordered the s8 plus as an upgrade and as far as I know I should be getting it 8 days early, so around the 20th I think. However when I was chatting to o2 customer service on the phone he said that they will start shipping the phones tomorrow! Does anyone know if there is any truth in this? Or does anyone else have any details?
Many thanks

We would expect CS to know what was happening.
As just customers like yourself, we only know what O2 tell us and you would know more about your order than we would.
You'll get a dispatch email with tracking data when the phone leaves O2 so you'll know later today if it is arriving tomorrow or not.

Have been looking to upgrade to the S8, but Sky are offering a really good deal 30 month contract though. Unused Data rolls over for 3 years, £26 a month for the phone, then 1GB starts from £10 pm, no upfront cost. Unlimited calls and texts if you are a Sky TV customer. The only sticking point only offer 12 months warranty.
