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.

 

 

Are you excited about getting your hands on one?

I wouldn’t believe live chat, they just told me they’re out of stock and EE haven’t shipped any PS5s - HA!

I've just been told EE don't sell PS5's and that Sony have stopped production of the PS5.

Just spoke to EE online chat (it's my first time messaging anyone at EE since ordering, impatience got the better of me today) and they didn't answer my questions at all - not sure they fully grasped that I just wanted a consignment number - but they did say, randomly and I guess copy and pasted:

 

 

1. Both brands, delaying next pre-order date from tomorrow to 3rd Dec. This is to protect Black Friday.

 

2. We are expecting “low” noise in the market as we believe most suppliers are also delaying pre-order for the same reason but we’ve deployed agent messaging and will have IVR deflections to hand if needed.

 


So, guess pre-orders back open on Thursday. As for ours? Who knows.

All I got told on chat is that my order is with the sales team (she gave me an order number which is different to my xko number?) and will "soon be picked up by DPD" she was gone for a while to speak to the delivery partner.

@Spikecast soooounds... positive??? Which bundle did you go for?

@BomagJJ  I went for the £50 bundle with extra controller and ordered at 0824, no idea what this sales number is for really? I'm still sceptical but she was more helpful than previous experiences on the chat.

Wasn't the £50 one for the PS+ too? That's what I went for 🙂

 

Ye, let's wait and see
