I know how you feel.
This is turning into a proper steaming pile.....
The agent said "the system" couldn't track if different teams ordered the phones.
The line of code you should insert VF when an order is placed:
CurrentStock = CurrentStock -1
What more likely happened is that 37 Vodafone employees have a shiney new Galaxy Nexus this morning.....

If it hadn't already, this is rapidly descending into farce.
TBH i've half a mind just to wait until Jan and move now. This business of getting totally conflicting deals depending on who you happen to get routed through to has especially wound me up. One plus i'll give VF is i've very rarely had to ring them about something. The big minus is almost every time I have had to contact them its ended up being a highly frustrating experience.

LMAO - ^^ most likely case by the sounds of it - but i got it confirmed delivery on monday for me anyway. VF seem to be following the government's line of the right hand not knowing what the left hand is doing - hence - CHAOS ![]()

The other possible is stock isn't allocated until after the order is confirmed. Although other orders taking precedence over yours wouldn't surprise me (high tariff customers, staff etc).

You're all a bunch of puppets being strung along by the vodafone machine.
If they had it in stock yesterday, normal practice would have been to send it out, yesterday.
They send them next day recorded delivery, so you should have it today.
Which means, they didn't send them out yesterday...
Why's that, ohh, maybe they didn't have stock until today, the same as Amazon etc.
You've all been treated like puppets and will continue to do so.
Now people shlag off P4U, however, Vodafone have been similar, but worse with you guys than anything I experienced with P4U.
I placed my order on launch day (P4U) and was told it was 'in stock and ready to go' , however I got mine 4 days later.
That's it. Done, got my phone been using it, got system update this morning, all cushty.
I've been with most networks in my time 02, Orange, T-Mobile, Vodafone, even '3' for a short period.
I've never had to contact them since I got my phone, I've never had problems I can't sort out my self, so I can't comment on any of their customer services, until now.
So whatever you say about P4U.. I'll have my phone for 16 months then upgrade, I probably will have no further communication with them, so what's the worry?

That's not a bad deal, however the 18 month deal is better value, they've just got an extra £108 out of you, yes that's over another 6 month period. Lets hope you don't want to upgrade before 22 months is up

I didn't reply and point you in the direction of this thread because you specifically asked for a moderators response, which you will not get in this thread.

Have had a few responses from Vodafone after requesting a call. They are just saying the phone is ordered but delivery is delayed. I am in the same situation. 30 in stock when I ordered, 24 when I ended the call. They really cannot pull the "out of stock" line. The problem is almost definitely that they didn't have a hope in hell of getting them out last night.

Hang on.... isn't that called a PRE-ORDER??
lol, I love this thread, it will be a shame if you ever get your phones

Looks like the "shipping" handsets are a batch of 3 x 50 GN3 handsets, still waiting on a SYd warehouse VFCS rep or mod to answer here as to the stock being shipped and how OLD the hardware serials are...
I guess the easy way to make sure is cross match the serials from the stock sent to VF from S/G and list them as they get sent to VF customers waiting, then just send them back within the 7 days to get a newer hardware handset... if needed!
Sounds like a plan hey! ![]()

As far as I'm aware nothing has been changed in the hardware, it's been fixed with a software update which I got this morning
