I ordered on 1st of Sept and its still pending shipment

Anybody have their OP2 shipped after receiving an invite?

Ordered on the 3rd with a mates account. It says processing.

I have an invite linked to my account I don't intend using. Can I just give one of you the code, or is it locked to my profile?

I'll give it to whoever is next on the list if someone would like to let me know who that is?

I just tried that. But once another person tires to use the code, "the invite has already been claimed" message pops up.

Well that's a pain. I suppose someone could use my account, but that would be a a load of hassle. My name, my email etc.

you can email keithclancy, Glofiedg & dan. I think because Ionapaul or thomasj clicked it, it might have been wasted.

^^ Not at all, just let them use your account for a while. They can add their shipping address, order and pay via paypal. Once done you can reset your account password. The shipping address cannot be changed once ordered.

Of course all this works on trust.

dan786

This method is certainly trust based as most people wont order from other peoples account.

Thanks to daytob and thomasj. I just bought one through thomasj's account. He allowed me to change the password to what I want so that I can keep track of it and once I have the phone I can change it back and let him know.

Thanks a million. Really appreciated. I was saving for it for a few months now. I will share any invites I get in future on my account.

thomasj

Yep to be honest its a fairly annoying method of doing it.I thought the code could have been handed over but the mail says it will only work for that email address.

Anyway hopefully the phone is worth it.

If I get anymore invites I will forward them on

thomasj

BTW sent you a mail just there with the order

I'd be willing to let someone order using my account, but what happens if the phone needs to be returned for repair or whatever reason. You'd need to do through my account again. Probably better off waiting a little longer for your own invites tbh.

god's toy

FYI:

The first round of invites are locked to the account it's sent to but after a phone is ordered from those accounts the shareable invites start to roll out.

As they waiting list is longer this time round it may take a little while before shareable invites are sent out.

Will whoever is next on list PM for a invite please.

Heres a question lads. I'm processing since the second of September. Seems there is a stock issue. If they decide to ship directly from China instead of a UK warehouse will vat and duty come into play?

CantGetNoSleep

Bought two and a load of accessories last year and still haven't received anything

ktulu123

For those of us lucky enough to actually get an invite and order the phone it seems there is a lot more waiting A guy on reddit created a ticket wondering what the delay was and this was his response:

I created a ticket to enquire about the shipping times and this is the reply that I received:
For OnePlus Two, there is a slight adjustment on order processing time at the beginning (until further notice), details as below:
For standard shipping: 8-17 business days after an order is placed (5-10 business days for processing + 3-7 business days for delivery);
For express shipping: 7-15 business days after an order is placed (5-10 business days for processing + 2-5 business days for delivery);
Thank you for your understanding. Let me know if you have any other questions.

padair

Thats a bit of a joke. Up to 17 days.

Yep, did the same yesterday and got the same reply. Suggested to them that they make it clear pre-purchase the exact waiting time. I'd have saved a fiver.

CantGetNoSleep

A real joke when you consider (a) this model is probably not the same value as last year and (b) the cost of postage. Looking more and more likely that I will give this a miss

emo72

Anyone able to find an answer to my question if they send them direct from China to the customer? Vat and duty would kill this deal stone dead.

To me it is highly unlikely that a company would do this (EU duties and VAT should already be included in their sale price when shipped from the Heathrow warehouse) - but I cannot confirm that

Hey daytob I sent you a private message if you get a chance Thanks!

No chance. They will restock their EU inventory first before sending the devices out to EU customers.

GLEV-FAOS-OQNB-RYRR

That's tied to your account. Can only be ordered through your store account with your linked email address.

My order is still pending shipment after a week, I ordered the OP2 on the 1st Sept.

I ordered last night and the status changed to processing this morning from pending shipment.

There is a big delay but rumours are if you go with express shipping you might not be affected.

From what I remember that's a good sign isn't it. I remember nearly a week my ordered OnePlus one was sitting at pending shipment before it changed to processing. Then it sped up.

Yes it certainly is after reading here and on One Plus forums that many orders are still at Pending Shipment status after several days. Hopefully they will despatch it soon.

How to share non-shareable invites:

Have a OnePlus account? Go to step 1.
Don't have a OnePlus account? Go to step 2 and skip step 6.
1) If you already have an account, go ahead and login before claiming your invite and change your email address to some other address. Hint: if you use gmail you can use + aliases. E.g. if you have one@gmail.com, you can use one+two@gmail.com.
2) Create a new account using the email address attached to your OPT invite.
3) Claim the OPT invite.
4) Change the email address on the new account with the invite to the recipient's email address.
5) Tell the recipient to claim their account (and invite) by using the 'Forgot your password' feature.
6) [ONLY IF YOU DID STEP 1] Go and log back into your original account and change the email address back to your normal address.
All done!

Guys came across this on One Plus forums and also many other sites like reddit. Many people saying this method works if someone wants to try.

Ordered on the 3rd myself and have been foolishly checking the status every few hours. Come on ta feck!

mine's the very same as that,thought I would have it by now.
The OPO took a week from order date to delivery and that included Parcel motel that time.

ONEPLUS CHAT:

Just off the live chat and that is what I have been told.That is complete bollix they must have serious stock issues.

Got an invite and ordered this morning, brother is interested in the device now though so my first shareable invite will go to him, any other spares I'll share back here as promised.

I would image its a non-sharable invite as the shareable ones havent started coming out. This can only be used from your account.

Devia

They're saying now that shareable invites will come out 10 days after purchase of the phone so should start seeing them circulating this week if that's the case.

Stoolbend

Can I be taken off the list too please.

I don't think the phone is for me really and don't want an invite to be wasted.

i got express shipping but sitting on processing since i ordered last wednesday. they go from pending to processing real quick so you cant cancel. they probably
knew people were going to jump ship to another phone so issued loads of invites to suck people in.

kjl

you can take me off the list, I got an invite elsewhere.

High five! Your order has been shipped.

Got an email to say the OP2 has shipped, just checked the tracking and its shipping from London Heathrow.

Anyone know whether all the EU Oneplus 2s are coming with continental chargers or we'll actually get a UK charger this time around?
