In reality, what i find interesting is let's face it we are geeks. we use forums etc. We are only a small portion of people ordering these lovely golden phones that are so hard to get hold of atm. This thread is really good to get some sort of an idea of what is happening.
I am really surprised there is not an official let's call them an official EE spokesperson. replying here. Some sort of statement and replies would go a long way to ease people. Just saying nothing i think is actually what is making people angry. disappointed ect .
As for the information given out. i would seriously put that down to either bad management, bad trai for one woudl pay for that lolining, and people not liking confrontation. Let's face it some people are good at it some are not. it's the ones who are not that i think are the ones saying anything just to get you off the line. they are just trying to de-escalate the situation they should not be in.
Bear in mind i am most probably the worst person in the world i hate queuing for anything i hate waiting, i like my brand-new shiny tech.
Here is a thought for you. if EE just was in it for the money do you not think they would offer pay to jump the wait queue, I would pay for that, and can you imagine how much they would make on it. Let's call it vip pre-order.
Or a credits-based system. you need say 1000 credits to bump your order up. you get credits for last year pre-order. you contribute on here ect ect.
