Have you ordered a PS5? Here's what to expect

Playstation 5 - Launch Post - Social.png

 

**UPDATED** We've added some extra information to cover some more frequently asked questions

 

You can order accessories on Add To Plan, which lets you buy new kit, and spreads the cost across your monthly EE bills over the next 11 months. It doesn’t cost you any more – there are no fees and no interest, and it’s not just for pay monthly mobile plans either. 4GEE WiFi and tablet plan users can benefit too.

 

Find out more about Add To Plan >


Here’s some helpful information of what to expect if you ordered one.

 

 

The PS5 is showing as out of stock, what should I do?


When the PS5 is out of stock, you can register here to get notified when it is available to order again.



Am I eligible?


You are able to order if you are an existing EE customer within the first 17 months of your contract and are eligible to take Add to Plan (please note, not available at time of upgrade).

 

 

Can I buy over the phone?


No, the PS5 is only available to buy online through the online shop

 

 

How do I know my order has been successful?


When you place your order online you will see an on-screen message like the one below with an xko number

You will also get an email about your order which will look like the below

If there are any problems with your order you will be contacted directly.


You will be kept up to date with your order by regular weekly messages, no need to call.

 

 

When will my £10 upfront payment be taken?


Your payment will not be taken straight away, so no need to check your bank account. It will be taken when your PS5 order is being processed on your account.

 

 

Will you be selling accessories or games?


Yes, we are selling various packages of games, controllers and consoles.

 

 

How will I find out about my delivery details?

 

You will get free Monday to Friday delivery as standard on all online orders and will receive a notification when it is out for delivery.

 

DPD – our courier partner, will send you a text the day before your EE order arrives to confirm delivery for the following day. The message will also include options to change and track your parcel on DPD’s website.

 

A further message will be sent on the day of delivery advising the 1 hour slot in which your delivery will be attempted, again this message will include options to change and track your parcel.

 

 

What if I want to cancel my order?


If you wish to cancel your order, please call us on 150 to do so.

Those of us pre-8:45am just have to keep an eye on emails tomorrow I reckon. 

 

Sony is absolutely sorting out a wave for today or tomorrow, confirmed by most major retailers. 

 

Hopefully EE get some stock and can start working through our orders

If the image won’t load, from the PlayStation Twitter:

 

“We want to thank gamers everywhere for making the PS5 launch our biggest console launch ever. Demand for PS5 is unprecedented, so we wanted to confirm that more PS5 inventory will be coming to retailers before the end of the year - please stay in touch with your local retailers”

Base.com have just emailed my son to say his ps5 order will arrive tomorrow...I'm hoping it could be a good sign for the rest of us 😁

Just spotted the same message on twitter, so excited for that DPD message to come through! Hope we all get them sooner rather than later 😁

UPDATE I’ve just spoken to sales team who have confirmed 100% was the wording that stock is in the warehouse and should be shipped within the next 7 working days at latest at the moment warehouse is working towards getting iPhones out that we’re processed before the ps5 was available to order so working on a basis of longest waiting orders first so shouldn’t be too long

I think the phases was an assumption , I reckon if what was previously mentioned was correct in regards to the stock is now in the warehouse ... they will be doing it dependant on which bundle you ordered
