Lost phone

Anonymous
Not applicable

I ordered a new phone last week - an early upgrade and contract change - and opted for click and collect at my local O2 store. Delivery date given when ordering was 8th July. The order is marked complete and dispatched 4th July. The DPD parcel number does not exist, the store does not have the phone, and O2 can only tell me that it has been dispatched and to wait five days. I'm not understanding why anyone would order a phone online if the delivery time is over a week. Any ideas how I can track the phone? Or do I just cancel?

No call from the store so I've just phoned O2. Spoke to a lovely lady. Very helpful. She thinks the store does have the phone and they're a bit useless. I tend to agree. If you are reading this, make a note to avoid the O2 store in the Merrion Centre in Leeds! Anyway, she can't see that phone has been used, but has now barred it. A new phone has been ordered but I've missed the delivery cut-off for tomorrow (cry), so will be Monday now. They're delivering the phone to my work address, which has 24/7 security, so it should arrive!

Hi

Did you get any tracking info sent via e mail. Look in your spam folders.

Click and collect link http://service.o2.co.uk/IQ/SRVS/CGI-BIN/WEBCGI.EXE?New,KB=Companion,question=ref(user):str(Mobile),C...

Edit ; if you've only spoken to O2 via Live Chat then speak to them via 202 which is Uk Customer Services.

Let us know how you get on and good luck.

Wouldn't it be easier to just upgrade in store?

No emails, bandofbrothers, and that was my point MI5 slight_smile  I thought it would be easy online, no salesperson, no fuss. Just have to collect the phone. Sorted. Oh no! I'll try phoning them and register a complaint

I spoke to 202 and explained the situation. After a long time on hold whilst the agent spoke to DPD, I've been told that the phone is at the store and they are busy but will phone me. I can collect the phone tomorrow though. Now, call me cynical, but I think DPD lost the phone and the store has one in stock so I'm being given that. I'll see what tomorrow brings!

Call me cynical too then because I think your wording is generous. Evil

I once had a card put through the door from Securicor when O2 used them for deliveries to say my phone was at the depot. Suffice to say that they couldn't find it when I went to the depot and O2 had to send a relacement, and that was pre smartphones.
