Let's get on topic guys. :)

I decided to go for it and ordered the offer via a friend in the UK. I've received an e-mail stating that my order is confirmed, yet it has not been sent out yet. Seeing that I paid for the express shipping... well, shouldn't it be halfway there already? Or do they only count the actual days it's "in the air", and not the waiting period before the actual transportation of the device?

I also paid express shipping using PayPal at 10:20am. So far i only got a the conformation email from sony and PayPal invoice email.

My hope is Sony can dispatch the phone today, this way with express shipping there is a good chance I can get the phone and headphones tomorrow.

I guess it all depends on when sony dispatches the phone.

Just got dispatched email from Sony (@16:17) with a DHL tracking no. However, the item is located in Brno Czech Republic. So not sure it will get here tomorrow.

The item is destined for Heathrow airport, to be delivered in London.

Finally got my confirmation email but still no dispatch email. I also paid for express shipping hoping to get it before Saturday. Did everyone get their confirmation email straight after they ordered or a while later? And these person with the dispatch email when did you order?

Thanks

I also paid with PayPal around 12.30 last night but the screen went white during the PayPal process but the payment did go through as I got a confirmation from PayPal but nothing from Sony until I made a few calls during the morning I just confirmation an hour ago. Sony customer service is really bad they don't seem to know anything, I guess it's because they are sending e phones from abroad.

Ordered at just after 10am with express delivery after made sure the value for the phone went down by £1 for the free headphones.

Paid using PayPal straight away and got the Sony confirmation email/PayPal email @10:20.

The dispatched email with DHL tracking number came at 16:17.

Hope you get your dispatched email soon.

No mention of the headphones though, at least not on the invoice. Or did you guys get something like that? :)
No mention of the headphones on any emails or check out page here either. Only the phone went down £1 after apply the coupon code.

Are you using a regular e-mail address? I noticed that it didn't like my various domain names, however it did like my Gmail.
Thx for your suggestion mate!:good:
Can't find ways to sign up but i found an account from my family so i order one at 9:30 today
Price dropped by £1 and received dispatched mail at 16:13 and invoice at 17:42
Headphones not mentioned in the invoice either :D hope i will see it with my phone tomorrow !

The phone is here (north London).

The headphones is also in the pack.

Best luck to those with express delivery.

Cool! Could you measure up the box it came in for me, as well as the product boxes? It would be much appreciated as I'm looking to have it shipped from London to the northern parts of Sweden. :)

Thanks in advance! :victory:

ordered mine yesterday with standard delivery and got mine today! (no need to pay for express delivery guys)

one question. the box of the phone i got did not have the usual sticker to prove that it hasn't been opened before. Is that the case with you who have received the phone?

The phone box:
15.6cm X 14.3cm X 3.5cm

The headphones box:
22.8cm X 21cm X 10cm

The package box:
40cm X 30cm X 13.5cm, the weight is 1.94kg (from label on the box)

The phone also did not have any sticker on the box. Maybe is a sim free thing compared to a phone from network provider.
