    I ordered last night but I got an email saying that my Google Wallet account is suspended for "suspicious activity" and my order was cancelled. I went through TunnelBear, set up a new Google account, added PM address and Visa Debit card, and ordered the phone.

    To unblock Google Wallet I need to supply government issued ID and proof of address that matches the given address which obviously I can't do.

    I guess I'll try again. Should I have used my own address for the billing address and the PM address for delivery? Or some people are saying they just used their own address with PM postcode?

    Use Parcel Motel address as billing and shipping address.

    Looks like you just got unlucky as that seems to be what most people did.

    Reading this thread, I was getting worried because all the people who ordered after me are getting their shipping emails. Checked my emails and what is sitting there, my shipping email. I'm delighted. I ordered a 32GB black at about 18:45 on Thursday. I never received a confirmation email and it was at pending pre-ordered the whole time until now for anyone wondering.

    32GB White Ordered 19:30 Thurs. Got Shipping Confirm just there..

    Used Tunnelbear, UK Gmail, PM Shipping, Mix of PM and real on Billing.

    Woo!!!

    I used a BOI mastercard with Parcel Motel last night and it seems to have worked as I got a shipping confirmation a while ago.

    Yup. Eircom. I was putting the little lad to bed and as he was dropping off, checked reddit to see that the N5 had been launched. The thread linked to the play store, so I gave it a shot, and it seems to have worked.
