Garacesh Posted October 9, 2015 Posted October 9, 2015 A) Codes are probably fired out automatically as soon as they're generated. They might need to ensure no duplication exists. B) I bet you're not the only ones being issued new codes C) Giving themselves a longer deadline than necessary to ensure it's done 'in time'.
bossman Posted October 9, 2015 Posted October 9, 2015 Sorry to hear that peep's, my order has gone through and the money has been taken out of my account so with the express delivery 5 - 10 days I estimate next Friday should be delivered to my door (Hopefully) order confirmation received via e-mail, Feeling excited
Arthur Posted October 10, 2015 Posted October 10, 2015 The first one day sale for the OnePlus 2 is on Monday. On Monday 12 October we are holding the first-ever OnePlus 2 open sales for one hour in four different time zones. This way, more fans around the world will get the best time possible to purchase the OnePlus 2 invite-free. We’re setting up the schedule as follows: Asia: 12:00-13:00 HKT | Europe: 12:00-13:00 CEST | North America: 12:00-1:00 pm PDT http://i.imgur.com/seMuG4q.png
Arthur Posted October 12, 2015 Posted October 12, 2015 CEST.. so 10am to 11am? That's what I thought initially, but isn't the UK currently UTC+1 which would mean the OnePlus sale would start at 11:00 UK time (since CEST is UTC+2)?
Arreks Posted October 12, 2015 Posted October 12, 2015 Yep must be since I just tried and you need an invite still!
denzal2k4 Posted October 12, 2015 Posted October 12, 2015 sites overloaded, can't get on, this takes the biscuit, even after this invite free thing that I can't get on , I will still have to wait for another invite
Garacesh Posted October 12, 2015 Posted October 12, 2015 I suspect that's why they staggered the offer.. But still should have suspected this. It's becoming all too common for websites to not bolster their servers against a massive influx of traffic. Still.. The site being down due to DDoS can be spun to reinforce their 'everybody wants this' approach, so who knows, maybe it's intentional?
denzal2k4 Posted October 12, 2015 Posted October 12, 2015 I have the phone in the cart...stay tuned....
denzal2k4 Posted October 12, 2015 Posted October 12, 2015 Got to the checkout page put all details in, press submit....."Undefined" TBH I'm at the stage where I might just leave it, plenty more phones in the sea
Arreks Posted October 12, 2015 Posted October 12, 2015 Their support has done enough to completely put me off the phone anyway I've heard the phrase "be patient" used in the wrong context so many times now (outsourced support woooooo)..
denzal2k4 Posted October 12, 2015 Posted October 12, 2015 OnePlus 2 tbh I trust that guy more then OnePlus and its only £10 more
Arreks Posted October 12, 2015 Posted October 12, 2015 OnePlus 2 tbh I trust that guy more then OnePlus and its only £10 more May have to resort to eBay too, but make sure it's the Europe version! otherwise most networks won't work well
Garacesh Posted October 12, 2015 Posted October 12, 2015 And this is exactly why I purchased one to pass on to you guys when I had the chance. I knew this would happen lol.
Arreks Posted October 12, 2015 Posted October 12, 2015 And this is exactly why I purchased one to pass on to you guys when I had the chance. I knew this would happen lol. Yeah.. it's kinda frustrating how they were like "this time, the release will be smooth and easy!" (nope) "the invite system will be better!" (definitely not!). This whole 'buy without an invite' thing was to make up for the shoddy launch, and they didn't even think that there was a chance they'd get a higher load on their web server(s)?!
Arreks Posted October 12, 2015 Posted October 12, 2015 Surely my eyes deceive me.. Pending Shipment! Payment gone through! Time to go get drunk! I refreshed cache and was able to get on. 1
denzal2k4 Posted October 12, 2015 Posted October 12, 2015 (edited) Likewise....*awaits bank statement for several oneplus transactions* just seen I have one pending shipment, one pending payment and one closed! Edited October 12, 2015 by denzal2k4 1
bossman Posted October 12, 2015 Posted October 12, 2015 @Arreks @denzal2k4 Pleased you got sorted, mine should be here this week, I haven't had any invites to dish out yet but I suppose they will come when I receive the phone and activate it, Regards bossman 1
bossman Posted October 16, 2015 Posted October 16, 2015 Well its arrived and all I can say is Wow!!! Great build quality, not as configurable as the OnePlus One with its new Oxygen OS but excellent overall even the camera which some people have slated, took no time at all to setup, screen is superb for my needs and talk about quick...........Its soooooo quick! Battery life is very very good compared to other phones around me....HTC M9, Samsung S6, IPhone 6s to name but a few, well impressed so far and not bothered about NFC, finger print scanner for security works so quickly and effectively just loving it!! So glad I bought it and thank you guy's for the invite, I haven't got any invites yet but expect they will sort soon (Keep checking everyday) so when they do come in I will share same as everyone else, Have a great weekend you guy's n gal's
Arreks Posted October 16, 2015 Posted October 16, 2015 Glad it arrived and you're enjoying it @bossman! Mine hasn't been shipped yet but they did say a turnaround of 2-3 weeks so I'm not worried 1

bossman Posted October 16, 2015 Posted October 16, 2015 @abillybob Got 4G (LTE) bud and its fantastic from EE around our area, exceptional speeds currently at work which is nowhere near the town centre and downloading at 20MB and 5MB upload. Great phone so far absolutely no complaints
