Hey Guys,
Just wanted to create a separate thread from the Discussion thread to specifically discuss EE Preorder tracking.
I think it's always helpful/reassuring to keep each other updated on the latest when it comes to this time of year, especially with EE's not-so-great track record on keeping customers informed about their preorders.

I bet they get people to hype up the best colours (or newest) so people order it more and then never make enough to make it more high demand. To say they’re manufacturing phones everyday in China and India and not have enough baffles me. Should’ve started making them earlier than last minute.

Fingers crossed 🤞 just hoping for a miracle 😂😂

I really thought I’d get DPD message today ordered sat 9am PM NT 256 EDD 13-17th but most people with EDD got it earlier. Fingers crossed maybe tonight. If not I guess hopefully Wednesday

There are at least 2 people posting with Earlier EDD than us (Im same phone, same EDD as you) that have observed their tracking go back to awaiting confirmation so, while that could be a change before getting a dispatch tonight it could also be a removal because they arent going to hit that window
I'm not going to be shocked if i dont have it between 13th and 17th, but i am going to have to then tackle the £550 charge they want to add to my account for not returning my existing phone - hopefully we all continue to update this thread and tonight we can use those updates and the spreadsheet to get a better idea of what (if anything) is moving - i need at least 30 256GB PM NT to go out before getting mine and thats only going by what is entered on the spreadsheet and to hit my EDD as currently scheduled there are 9 days for that to occur, Based on previous weeks so far we'll have a good idea by Wednesday evening if thats going to be likely...

I have the same EDD as you I’m not expecting a DPD notification till Wednesday sadly! Would be great if I t was tonight but not counting on it. Wel see later I guess. Notifications should start around 7!

@colonel _ez
This is the reason why i decided to take a gamble and change my order.
i had the awaiting confirmation of delivery date for ages(ordered on the 15th finished on the 16th got confirmation of my order at 9am on the 16th) Then that changed to the 6th-10 October. then one morning it just disappeared and went back to waiting on confirmation again.
And someone on her mentioned they had some stock of the blue 512s in stock so i rang up. canceled that order and redid my order. It was certainly a gamble. Just glad it paid off.

I might be wrong but I think the 2 people I have seen with their EDD go back to awaiting confirmation have been 1TB PM.
Based on last weeks happenings, I would expect to see anywhere up to 003309 start to get notified tonight as we are currently up to 0033073 (on 256GB NT) according to the spreadsheet, I am 0033094 and I have same EDD (13th-17th) so would assume based on last week you and Mr Zen would be in today's batch if they have the same stock delivery as last week as it is more likely I will be a batch after yourself unless I am lucky! So fingers crossed you do get it tonight as I feel I am a batch behind you guys.
That is complete guesswork yes but if they only fulfil say up to 0033078 tonight then I am going to be still waiting weeks for mine based on that and what has happened previously. Hopefully see you all here at 9pm tonight with some DPD notifications!😁

Call EE and tell them that your new phone hasn’t arrived they should be able to extend the return time

I ordered Black Pro Max 256 on 27th and they told it can up to 28 days but people who ordered theirs last night are receiving DPD texts? How does that work?
