    Yeah, fair fecks to him if he did get it. No one else thought of getting it shipped by DHL. Smart move is what it was.
    Let's not report him to the radio or Littlewoods and have them take it back on him.

    According to The Consumer Information Act 1978 you are entitled to that price. It is their mistake, and if they try to charge you at that price report it to the Director of Consumer Affairs.

    Both my orders are showing as cancelled now on Littlewoods order tracking page. Missed littlewoods phonecall to home address as I had put that down on account, looks like the dream is well and truely ended! :(


  • Registered Users Posts: 260 ✭✭portumna


    Just rang there and they said all orders of these computers were frozen and are being cancelled as the actual price is €639. Now i know €69 was crazy but €639 is awfully high for a basic enought spec. It's only £439 on their uk site.

    One of the guys in work just got a phone call saying his order was being cancelled.
    A few minutes later another guy (whose order had been processing since 11am yesterday) got a confirmation mail and his account in littlewoods just got updated to accepted and a delivery date.
    I don't think anyone is going to get them, but they are really handling it terribly.


  • Registered Users Posts: 962 ✭✭✭chavezychavez


    Aye, my order has now changed status to "Credit Rejected".

    The dream is over

    It was all a marketing scheme!! There website got so many fúcking hits.
    There's bound to be some idiots that end up browsing other sections and buying junk. :rolleyes:


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,323 ✭✭✭brophs


    Just got a call from Littlewoods saying that the price was incorrect, so the order has been cancelled.

    Not really a surprise.


  • Registered Users Posts: 17,943 ✭✭✭✭Thargor


    What about those of us who got in when the original thread was only 2 pages long though? Im still hoping ¬_¬

    If that guy who asked for expedited delivery posts pics of the pc he got Ill need a new pc because this one will be in bits.


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,907 ✭✭✭✭Kristopherus


    Just got a call from Littlewoods Uk, informing me that the price was incorrect and asking if I wanted to cancel. I asked woud they honour the offer. She said no. I cancelled.:mad:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,892 ✭✭✭spank_inferno


    Ditto here also

    the actual rrp on the littlewoods site is absolutely crazy though.
    I doubt they will ever actualy make a legitimate sale for it ever.

    My 2 orders say the same thing.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 679 ✭✭✭polyfusion


    Yes, it's only a matter of time. Logged in just now, and see "credit rejected", it was "processing" half and hour ago.

    And a missed call on my phone, with a UK number ending ....4878000. Shysters!


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,504 ✭✭✭Daemonic


    'Credit Rejected' as well...ah well, no need to take time off next Monday after all :D

    Yep - 46% more for the Irish price compared to the UK. Think this tells us a lot about that site.

    You all knew you wouldnt get them so why get annoyed with them, im sure whoever put up the mistake on their website got enough of a talking too as it is.


  • Registered Users Posts: 849 ✭✭✭Cr8or


    Littlewoods just canceled my order.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,429 ✭✭✭brettmirl


    Hehehehehe it must be costing them a small fortune to call us all back to cancel the order!


  • Registered Users Posts: 727 ✭✭✭Ms Happy


    My status just changed to "card rejected" They shouldn't use that terminology, it should be something like "order cancelled please contact....." Card rejected would freak some people out....

    Think I'm doubley pissed off as I wasn't just trying to buy the PC, I had ordered some clothes too and they've cancelled them too. (And before anyone says it my card it fine :pac: ) I won't be placing the order for the clothes again. They've not handled this one to well.

    The feckers......

    Just got the call to say order cancelled.

    Poor girl sounded tired. She said there were over 2000 customers they needed to call and thanked me for being so nice as a lot of people were trying to claim consumer rights and all that.

    So to those still to get the call, take it on the chin and have a laugh with the poor customer service gorls who have had to deal with joe duffy types all day.
