nokia should of posted to it retailers, I talked to MPD guys twice today, they said they ll ship it at the end of the month. but I think they might post it to retailers and they can dispatch it from there.
Same as most here, used multiple discounts to pre-order in October, then today received the "Order ready to be processed" email, followed later by the "Order cancelled due to credit card failure".
I had my suspicions that the order would be cancelled as I did take the p1ss a bit (3 x 15% discounts and 10% cashback on N900 and spare battery) but the sneaky way in which (I believe) Nokia Shop has gone about cancelling the orders has annoyed me. There is very little doubt in my mind that Nokia have put through the debit and credit card charges in a way in which the card companies are likely to perceive as fraudulent transactions and cancel them.
Has anyone had their order cancelled that didn’t have discount codes on their order?

Are other people having great difficulty getting on to this site at the moment? Sorry if this has already been discussed, this is the furthest Ive managed to get in today. Can anyone tell me if theres any MPD news today?
Yup.
It seems us Brits are hogging all the bandwidth.

Well my order got declined because it was regarded as fraudulent.
I suppose that's what you get for repeated auth's for 500 quid on a credit card without settling.
And I have to re-order, as the Nokia shop can't re-auth as the order is deleted after a DECLINE.
To add injury to insult the nokia uk shop seems to be down now. (on checkout) https://shop.nokia.co.uk/nokia-uk/error500.aspx
I would have thought that nokia could have a system that was fit for purpose, but having a web shop that simply delete's orders on a decline is beyond belief, especially on a system that accepts pre-orders.
I would say this might damage Nokia's image further, but there is no "might" in there unfortunately.
At least they still have one die hard fan, I'll be trying again and again....until it arrives (or maemo 6 arrives, which ever is first)
Hey, don't let them shout at you, Shaichico. Thanks for the congratulations. You're welcome to bunk with us and enjoy the enthusiasm. This thread has been a real blessing for sifting out UK related information (out of the Huge Threads) so we're a bit protective of it. But we don't mind people being here watching us go slowly crazy...
Thnx RevdK, I'm glad for most of you the wait is almost over. I'll be back in London for Crimbo so I'm hoping the main retailers have it in stock during that period! If not I guess I have to wait over this side of the pond actually more like way up north of the pond!
