So O2 website has update now too

64bg silver and SG are both stating delivery in up to 2 weeks.

256GB Silver is saying more than 4 weeks

256gb SG is saying up to 3 weeks.

By that logic, I should receive mine before the 21st November as I ordered on 31/10 at 10am.

Any of the 256 SG Pre Orders started trickling through as well?

So happy to see all the confirmations of dispatches coming through, gives me hope

@Anonymous The O2 website is what confused me. It says 2 weeks but all correspondence said up to 3 or 4 weeks. So it looks like if you order ‘today’ you’ll receive it in 2 weeks but preorders are estimated at longer. I think it’s estimated from your order date.

I think its fair to say, communication is the key word here 

congrats on getting yours tomorrow though!!!!

I’m glad it’s on its way but I’m feeling awful for anyone that ordered before and the same as me that hasn’t got theirs 😐

its a definite satisfaction that our upgrade date will be from the day I ordered rather than the day I receive it though.

from what i could see, in the beginning it seemed like 256gb space grey was the longest to wait for, now its the 256gb silver thats gone to the longest wait

On Pre-Order day? 

I think when I ordered initially I was told 6 weeks, then that dropped down to 4, then to 2 weeks, but id ordered the 256 SG, my guess would be that you'd probably look at getting it before end of December. 

i guess its that decision to make in the future, order on pre-order date or just wait until the phone becomes readily available.

I think I'd have been more annoyed by now, if I'd have ordered on pre-order day, but I waited until pay day and processed it on 31/10. So who knows how long will have to wait.

I give up talking to LC / CS, I was told by someone that I will definitely have it by 20th November, and I have the chat link, so if its not here by then, I'll take the resolver route like everyone else.

Hate to think how much this is costing o2 in dealing with complaints though!
