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.

@Adii damn so I gather there just shipping when they can, I’ve worked in warehouses myself but mostly in dispatch , I could only imagine what’s it’s like in the warehouses rn 🙈

@asma96 mine is showing as a pending transaction on my first direct acct.  I know some other banks don’t show pending transactions as quick so it may be that.

@Teemeans if I had any chance of just driving to the depot and kindly acquiring my ps5 from there hands I would so rn lol 

 

Tbh because of this hellish situation of acquiring and distributing the consoles I can understand why most of us are left in the dark and get a surprise visit from dpd lol

@Adii Haha just from a warehouse point of view they have to hit a number of picks , to keep there PO up because most company’s like dpd can’t go below a certain % threshold every year or they will be fined by EE .so launches are important to that % . I wouldn’t be surprised if you get something tomorrow . Dpd do send messages quite late I think even sometimes till 11 probs when the night shift start . Iduno if it’s the same with dpd but xpo are very similar
