It's all in the first post.
If you're too lazy to read, a Kindle is not for you.

I've never had a burning desire to own a Kindle PaperWhite (until last night ...) so was a bonus if it was honoured and just got confirmation my order has been dispatched for collection Tuesday afternoon
Anyway looks like a number of people have had their orders honoured so was worth posting. cheers

You're lucky, mate. Never seen one on ebay for £49. May be the seller doesn't want the 'suffer' that someone has wished on him.

I emailed exactly...
...I've just got a new Paper white with special offers. Can I have them removed without paying the £10 charge?
Half an hour later I received an email saying yes!
yus786
30 May 16#271
Got mine a few days ago thanks OP
I've just asked via chat if they could remove the ads and they're saying that there's a £10 charge unless you get the kindle as a gift
edit: the rep went away to ask a supervisor after I said that I've seen a few people get it for free and he removed them for me as a goodwill gesture, result!

Whey hey...finally received my dispatch email yesterday but still got to wait a week to pick them up as expected delivery date to store is still the 4th of June...oh the joys of living in the middle of nowhere!!!
Seriously though HUGE thanks to you Chanchi....my mum will be thrilled with hers on her birthday and I'll earn some serious brownie points and more to the point I'm thrilled as it cost me a fraction of what it should have...lol...

Ask politely but firmly - you can get quite a lot out of Amazon's CS if you try.
Chanchi32

Did you get your £10 refund?
andymg2000
26 May 16#258
What reason are you giving Amazon for getting the ads removed? Just that you don't want them (who would)? Seems odd they'd be ok with that.
Illusionary
26 May 162#257
Now there's a good idea! I've just managed to get the same result via a live chat session. Thanks for the suggestion.
I do wonder how many times "one-time exceptions" are possible at times!
Neel
26 May 162#256
I picked mine up today. I just rang amazon and asked if they would remove special offers for free as a good will gesture and they said yes.
Thanks Chanchi. I forgot to vote hot when the deal went up. I was frantically entering card details at 1:30am and didn't get the chance when it had expired.
You are awesome and made my week, so thanks a million.

you are right do not ring as i made that mistake last month,I have picked mine up yesterday and shortly afterwards got a call from tesco saying they were cancelling my order and giving me a refund I explained i had already collected them so no refund needed now i have received an email to say they have just been dispatched and can pick them up tomorrow insane or what.

No point in me going to the store at the moment...takes forever for them to get the click and collect items in due to our location...as I said above my pick up date is 4th of June so definitely won't be there yet...last time I ordered from Tesco Clothing it took over 2 weeks for them to get them into store...last direct order took 9 days I think.

Go to the store and ask, my still saying confirmed and I already collected it.
tiggerloveslife
25 May 16#241
Yes...me....mind you they take forever to deliver both store and home deliveries to my area...I must have been among the first to order but my store delivery date is 4th of June :confused:
On the other hand it always gives them plenty of time to cancel any order I place when they deem it is a misprice...not too happy with them at the moment and am in the process of sharpening my claws to have a right go at them...ordered the 2TB Western Digital Wireless Hard Drive last night having waited since about January for it to come back into stock...OH ordered one about half an hour after me...they've cancelled mine saying they got it wrong but OH's order is still valid...makes no sense whatsoever.

Collected mine wonderful deal 2 questions tough
#1 Decent case recommendations ?
#2 Is there an easy way to transfer/organise books from my PC to this as eg say i have a folder on my PC Stephen King then in that folder all of his titles/books trouble ive found is that when ive added that to my Kindle Keyboard it just adds all of the titles separately listing pages upon pages of his books on my Kindle ill then have to manually organise them to show the same as it was on the PC which takes hours, is there a way around this ?
haha sorry I didn't have a clue on how to post pictures. I had to play around a little to familiarise myself.

24 May 164#232
Ordered two.
Collected both today from Tesco.
Incredible price.
Will be given to both of my daughters.- These are great for kids because you can alter the font size, so things like Harry Potter don't look so daunting with big friendly text. - Had bought the Harry Potter paperbacks but the text is small and difficult for young ones
(Also, not so many words on a page, so they feel that they are reading lots of pages within a short period of time - a big confidence builder)

what's strange is my order is still saying "confirmed" and even though I've collected it's giving me an option to cancel :confused:. I wouldn't dare click that as that would constitute to theft and I am certainly no thief.
just say you were wondering when your order would be delivered and give them the reference number
Neel
24 May 161#212
I'm tempted to give them a call but worried they'll see the misprice and cancel the order.
I might do what nazmanchester did and head down there tomorrow. It could be just sitting there.

They're not always prompt with sending notifications. I was passing my store about half an hour ago, so went in to check on the offchance and it had arrived. I've now just got back in, sat down... and the SMS arrived to advise that the parcel was ready for collection.

You'll generally get an email when it's arrived and been processed ready for collection, but this certainly can be before 3pm. I wouldn't go out of your way to get to the store before you know that it's there, but if you're passing anyway there's no harm in checking.

Yeah, its pretty insane they're honouring it. I got my Booly price drop alert while working late 1am and also wondered if it was related to the Kindle Fire discount price.
Sadly for me I had already bought the latest Paperwhite for myself, my partner, and my brother at the end of last year, two at full price, one Black Friday. It's by far the best eReader I've tried so far! :smiley:

Maybe worth a punt
Two new codes have gone live today which apply to the Kindle Paperwhite
Save £10 when you spend £75 or more on selected Vision and Computing using TDX-9HFJ
Save £20 when you spend £150 or more on selected Vision and Computing using TDX-V4X7
So if you ordered 2 kindles and spent over £75 - try livechat to see if they will give you a further £10 refund
Ordered at 02:07, status still confirmed. No dispatch email as yet.

Trading standards here i come.
Neel
23 May 163#138
Seriously?! The guy has edited his name out of the email. Why would he reveal is real name on here. I suppose you want his email and address. Wow. Just a hint here his Tesco direct order number is not XXXXXXXXX. That kind of stuff is private.
JRichards
23 May 161#136
That troll never place an order.
You don't use an user name like idiot81 when making an order, your name must be real and same as the one in your bank card. Tesco staff have to check against it with the order's name for security unless that troll's name in his card is also idiot81.
I find it rather unusual that dispatch email has not been sent to me yet considering it is more than 20 hrs now. I ordered from Tesco Direct many times before and I usually received dispatch email in a few hours. But I am sure if Tesco honour this deal, dispatch email will be sent out no later than 8am Tuesday and then another collection email between 2-3pm same day asking you to bring ID to collect. So wait till 8am and see what happens.
JohnnyRoller
23 May 16#84
It makes me laugh that members are still sour about people ordering loads to sell on eBay. Surely you realise half the members on here do exactly that. It was gone 1am when this was posted and you expect people to queue up single file ordering 1 each; then politely commenting on here for the next member to place their order...

Dear kneale81,
We are sorry, but we've had to cancel your Tesco direct order XXXXXXXXX.
At Tesco, our customer's security is of high importance. To protect our customers we check the details of each order. In a small number of cases, this means we are unable to fulfil delivery to our customers. We are sorry that this has affected your order.
We may be in contact to confirm certain details relating to your purchase. Please make sure your contact details are up to date. In particular, please check we have your correct daytime, evening and mobile phone numbers for any future order.
Once again we would like to apologise for any inconvenience this may have caused and hope that you choose to shop again soon with Tesco direct.
Kind Regards,
Mr T

Can't believe I missed this, been after one for ages but i won't pay anything like £110 for an ereader. this would have been perfect. I even tried going through flubit but it got rejected. :disappointed:
Will just have to hope that the influx of them onto eBay drives the average price down and gives me a chance at getting one though I still doubt it will be anything like £40......
Don't suppose anyone bought too many by accident and wants to sell one? :wink:

shame I missed this, been wanting to replacing my 4 year old kindle with a paperwhite (but hard to justify over £100 when the old one still works). Good luck to those that ordered, hopefully its honoured!

23 May 162#86
Lol yep, the logic of people on here is a joke. They don't mind when Amazon buys items for 20% of the RRP then sells in the tens of thousands, but when a scalper snags a few reduced items due to their luck or speed, then makes a bit of money on ebay, they're a monstrous fiend. Get real people, moaning about scalpers is pathetic considering what the corporations do every day.

Yes, they were all shipped at 5am with faster postage than any other product ordered on tesco before, rather than the time after which they ship the C&C orders

23 May 161#79
Was wondering how many they had/sold...know I bought 2 but don't think that's enough stock to set up my own kindle business...unless you bought a couple as well and wanted to go into partnership with me :stuck_out_tongue:
Chanchi32
23 May 16#78
Probably more chance of being honoured given it is out of stock
Saying that stock levels were in excess of +99 when posted, think someone is setting up their own kindle business

Yup as you don't get to play HUKD bingo :wink:

No point checking, prices all change at 2am and it was scanned at 2:30. Direct price only, not in store
Chanchi32
23 May 16#70
It was a Tesco Direct error (not instore) - my theory is that they were changing the price of the Amazon tablet to £39 and somehow changed the kindle paperwhite price too

...I've just got a new Paper white with special offers. Can I have them removed without paying the £10 charge?
Half an hour later I received an email saying yes!
I've just asked via chat if they could remove the ads and they're saying that there's a £10 charge unless you get the kindle as a gift
edit: the rep went away to ask a supervisor after I said that I've seen a few people get it for free and he removed them for me as a goodwill gesture, result!
Seriously though HUGE thanks to you Chanchi....my mum will be thrilled with hers on her birthday and I'll earn some serious brownie points and more to the point I'm thrilled as it cost me a fraction of what it should have...lol...
I do wonder how many times "one-time exceptions" are possible at times!
Thanks Chanchi. I forgot to vote hot when the deal went up. I was frantically entering card details at 1:30am and didn't get the chance when it had expired.
You are awesome and made my week, so thanks a million.
Cheers
On the other hand it always gives them plenty of time to cancel any order I place when they deem it is a misprice...not too happy with them at the moment and am in the process of sharpening my claws to have a right go at them...ordered the 2TB Western Digital Wireless Hard Drive last night having waited since about January for it to come back into stock...OH ordered one about half an hour after me...they've cancelled mine saying they got it wrong but OH's order is still valid...makes no sense whatsoever.
#1 Decent case recommendations ?
#2 Is there an easy way to transfer/organise books from my PC to this as eg say i have a folder on my PC Stephen King then in that folder all of his titles/books trouble ive found is that when ive added that to my Kindle Keyboard it just adds all of the titles separately listing pages upon pages of his books on my Kindle ill then have to manually organise them to show the same as it was on the PC which takes hours, is there a way around this ?
Collected both today from Tesco.
Incredible price.
Will be given to both of my daughters.- These are great for kids because you can alter the font size, so things like Harry Potter don't look so daunting with big friendly text. - Had bought the Harry Potter paperbacks but the text is small and difficult for young ones
(Also, not so many words on a page, so they feel that they are reading lots of pages within a short period of time - a big confidence builder)
My order is sitting in a warehouse ready to be shipped for tomorrow! Fingers crossed..
just say you were wondering when your order would be delivered and give them the reference number
I might do what nazmanchester did and head down there tomorrow. It could be just sitting there.
Probably didn't have enough money for 15 in his bank account. I picture a Del Boy type living hand to mouth, sitting on HUKD hoping to find a deal so good that he can leave the strife behind him.
It will make a great gift for my little bookworm mad sister. Bought her a couple of nooks in the past and she was devastated when they pulled out of the UK.
Thanks OP!
Not sure my local will entertain collection anytime before 3pm and I'm dying to go there now, so would like to chance it lol
Sadly for me I had already bought the latest Paperwhite for myself, my partner, and my brother at the end of last year, two at full price, one Black Friday. It's by far the best eReader I've tried so far! :smiley:
Two new codes have gone live today which apply to the Kindle Paperwhite
Save £10 when you spend £75 or more on selected Vision and Computing using TDX-9HFJ
Save £20 when you spend £150 or more on selected Vision and Computing using TDX-V4X7
So if you ordered 2 kindles and spent over £75 - try livechat to see if they will give you a further £10 refund

Yes, 3.
Before anyone slates me, the extra 1 was a gift. Doesn't matter now anyway.
Edit again: Just realised they only cancelled 1 of the 2. That's not so bad after all :smiley: Oh well, no gift to give as I'll keep it the one I got for myself now.

Anyway looks like a number of people have had their orders honoured so was worth posting. cheers
Completely different Email to what was posted in the thread earlier though.
see post #111 & 102
I placed my order 1am.
He's not going to show his real name on Hotukdeals is he.
A few hours ago my order said confirmed but the tracking picture showing as dispatched, now tracking is showing as dispatched aswell
Trading standards here i come.
You don't use an user name like idiot81 when making an order, your name must be real and same as the one in your bank card. Tesco staff have to check against it with the order's name for security unless that troll's name in his card is also idiot81.
I find it rather unusual that dispatch email has not been sent to me yet considering it is more than 20 hrs now. I ordered from Tesco Direct many times before and I usually received dispatch email in a few hours. But I am sure if Tesco honour this deal, dispatch email will be sent out no later than 8am Tuesday and then another collection email between 2-3pm same day asking you to bring ID to collect. So wait till 8am and see what happens.
Edit: Mr T has gone downhill in my books
We are sorry, but we've had to cancel your Tesco direct order XXXXXXXXX.
At Tesco, our customer's security is of high importance. To protect our customers we check the details of each order. In a small number of cases, this means we are unable to fulfil delivery to our customers. We are sorry that this has affected your order.
We may be in contact to confirm certain details relating to your purchase. Please make sure your contact details are up to date. In particular, please check we have your correct daytime, evening and mobile phone numbers for any future order.
Once again we would like to apologise for any inconvenience this may have caused and hope that you choose to shop again soon with Tesco direct.
Kind Regards,
Mr T
Does status ever change to Dispatched for click and collect orders?
