Oh god. Hope you can get this resolved. Very's Twitter and Facebook pages are your best methods to make a complaint. Ask to see the signature. Keep pestering them even if they try fobbing you off.

My friend's laptop arrived yesterday and I set it up for her.
I have never personally used any laptop with an SSD drive and was amazed by how quickly it operates. Starts up in seconds. Was really blown away.
Makes me wonder how people can cope with regular 5200rpm old fashioned drives nowadays in cheaper laptops.

Not sure why I cant login to my account, but anyway, my tracking number now does not even exist!
Ive sent an email to Very, I don't think ill be getting one in all honesty. Bit of a farce.
EDIT - Its now saying its on its way and will be delivered tomorrow by the guaranteed time... which I assume is 1pm. So who knows whats really happening. Ill probably end up with a new Fridge or something

I just spoke to a live chat adviser who told me my item was still due to be delivered today, but it was not marked as dispatched at the time. Funnily enough, while I was still talking to them I got an email to say it had been dispatched. If I click the tracking link the Royal Mail site says "Please come back later". A friend is experiencing the same thing but marked as dispatched yesterday.
The adviser said I will be notified if there are any delays, in which case I should wait 2 more days.
The adviser suggested I call their Track & Trace number which is a premium number soooo... :/

Good deal if available, but as usual it's a waste of time ordering from Very. A few people may get these deals, but majority place an order then find out 3 days later that Very are cancelling the order due to stock. This happens all the time, it's outrageously unprofessional. I foolishly gave these clowns another chance and ordered my laptop last night. Today I see the item is now marked out of stock and my order is still 'processing' - 99% chance now it gets cancelled. So frustrating especially when all those in my situation will now have missed out on an opportunity to capitalize on Cyber Monday. :disappointed:
Edit: I take it all back, this time Very came through. Writing this from my new laptop :smiley:

Gtx 965M on a 4K screen for gaming? Never gonna work and then you'll be playing games upscaled from 1080P so not worth it imh
Can I set up a new very account and get the 10% discount but just pay off the full balance straight away instead of 3-12 installments? Also does very accept Amex cards for the installment payment? My Amex card gives 1% cashback too

SBarnez
28 Nov 16#14
For the price how much better a performance would this laptop give with the i7 processor vs this i3 model below?
The i7 is a good step up from the i3, but it depends on the ratio of graphics card to CPU you want.

On reading the reviews, the one you linked has a 2gb 950m not a 4gb 965m, this one would be A LOT more powerful.
Then again, for £505 with the 10% new customer discount it's still pretty damn good. I nearly fell off my chair when I saw "965m £560 (-10%=£505)", knew it was too good to be true.
NOTE: This is not the laptop in the original post, responding to SBarnez link to a lower model.

I ordered a similar spec machine on black Friday for £700 (lenovo y700) with 16gb ram and 256 ssd. What are the downsides of taking out a credit account and would there really be much benefit in my case for that 965m?

I think new customers also get 10% discount with promo code even on cyber deals , you have to open a credit account with them but you can pay in 3 interest free instalments . If that's right a further £79 quid off.

As it's over £200 you can do buy now pay in 12 months, as long as you pay the full balance before the 12 months you pay no interest.

You should be able to. But it might take up to 6 months for the cashback to go through.
Does this come with a copy of Windows? It doesn't state it anywhere.

Seems very good for this price.
Only quibbles I can see are:
1. Not very many USB ports (only 2x USB 3 and 1x USB 2).
2. Only 8GB RAM... 16GB would be nicer for a gaming laptop.
Anyone know if it's possible/easy to add more RAM to this?
