    Yeah, I reckon Monday too but I'm on to MS live chat again because I went to the site and the option popped up so I said why not, they will at least know that I am not happy and I keep reminding them that I was told by UPS that it was shipped too late too. I'll probably get nothing out of doing it as I doubt they will deliver it now or tomorrow but I figure I might as well let them know I'm not happy again.

    My tracking number had scheduled delivery for Monday has just been updated to being delivered today.

    Its so late though there's no chance of it getting here even though Im 10 mins from their Finglas depot

    Have you tried ringing UPS ans asking can you go collect it at their depot? Not sure what the story is with UPS but I worked as a courier for DHL for 2 years and we would have had no problem with this. One less delivery off our back :cool:

    Looks like they're only doing the northside tonight, since the depot is in Finglas.

    Una disculpa, ahora estás en contacto con el soporte en Español, te voy a comunicar al departamento adecuado. (Hi, I'm sorry but I don't speak English, give me just a moment to transfer you to the right department)


  • Registered Users Posts: 664 ✭✭✭Rafloution


    Lads feeling for ye. That's a fooking **** up...must be UPS as they wouldn't be delivering that late normally.

    I ordered Amazon UK, July next day delivery free, so went parcel motel. Checked in very late tonight and will be there in morning.

    Xtravision load of gits too. Seems like gamestop online was the way forward


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,369 ✭✭✭acquiescefc


    just my thought on xtravision. if you preordered every xbox one item they have, when you go to pick up the console and have to buy another product how would that work. scumbags they are hope they go bust.

    currently still on xbox chat waitig for them to transfer me to someone who actually can help and who actually speaks english


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,373 ✭✭✭Eire Go Brach


    Have to say I'm disgusted at Xtra vision. I'm ok cause I wanted a play and charge kit. But the girl told me I also had to buy a game. Till I told her her colleague yesterday said a peripheral was ok. She then went and made a call. Think she did not know the story.

    But I'm disgusted as, I chose them for my preorder as I wanted to support them. I wanted to give them my business. Then I hear that people being forced to buy more games on top of preordered games. I never rented movies. But always bought my games there. Bought DVDs with HMV. Now I'm voting with my feet. Il never use Xtra or HMV again. Smyths is where il buy my games. Il be ringing head office Monday to tell them them they lost a customer because of this.

    I also rang consumer.ie He said it's more then likely illegal. With a deposit. Your receipt becomes your contract. They broke that contract. You are defineiley entitled to your deposits back. But there basicly holding you to ransom. We all want the console. There is not a lot you can do there and then. It could be takes to the small claims court. That's cost €25 It's just so sly what they are doing. There going to lose lots of customers because of it. I can not see them getting away it for the PS4 Launch.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,516 ✭✭✭dor83


    I just finished a very long chat with a rep in the MS store, again the rep was very nice and I have no complaints about them as I understand it is not their fault personally and can only tell us what they are told, but I asked about filing a complaint to MS about the situation and was told to fill in the survey after the chat. Te rep also told me that she would pass my case on for further investigation. I also said that they should have them deliver tomorrow but she said that won't happen and it will be Monday, nothing else I can do but I'd recommend every who is still waiting file complaints.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,369 ✭✭✭acquiescefc


    i did the survey and based it on the whole end to end process.
    No emails, no contact, no console. Last time i order anything from them.

    I just sent the following to the journal going to send a few more around now

    @thejournal_ie Hey Guys any chance you can do a piece on @Xtravision forcing people who had already preordered/paid for their xbox ones to buy another game / accessory or they would not receive their xbox and were offered a refund @xbox as I'm sure this may be illegal even if not illegal its immoral an reprehensible
