payment taken no order confirmation

[Sofie04]

Hello, i was preorder the new iphone 18 pro this evening. i paid and it declined so i retried, authorised the payment on my banking app and then page refreshed and took me back to the basket. checked my bank and my £100 upfront payment was taken. however ive had no order confirmation and nothing showing on app/website?

@Sofie04  Have you checked your spam folder?   

[Sofie04]

Hi Yes i checked this as well. nothing there either

@Sofie04 , the upfront payment should be pending in your bank account and if the item has not been approved, will be returned into your account within 8-10 days, other than that, I would suggest speaking to customer service to find out what is going on.

There is no account access here, so we cannot check for you.

Hello, yes the payment is still pending. how long would it take to find out if it’s been approved or not. and what options do i choose when ringing because i’m not hearing one for customer service or issues with an order ?

[Schockwave]

@Sofie04 , if you ring customer service and then press option 2 you have the choice of speaking to one of them, I would try billing, they can then help and put you through to the right person if needed.

hello thank you. i called and they advise because it’s the new iphone 18 pro i should wait until its actually released on 18th and if nothing comes through to ring again

@Sofie04 , thank you for letting us know, I had not realised that it was the new IPhone, you just have to wait until the 18th as you have ordered a preorder.

Welcome to the Community, @Sofie04 

Just to be sure, when you spoke with our team did they check your XK order reference number and confirm if the order had gone through?

There is a separate system for online orders and your pre-order should be logged in here. It's definitely best to confirm 100% than risk waiting until release date and hoping.

The only thing you'd need to do is explicitly ask to speak with Web sales once connected with one of our Guides, who can then check the eOrder system.

Wow really that's the best these wonderful 50 year voted best network agents can do? Buddy phone back throw the gauntlet down if they don't inform you if your order was successful go elsewhere, ive been with orange then EE unfortunately for many moons, and every single year these experienced handlers have less experience than us customers IMO......they have your funds you have been most likely credit checked they know by looking and doing their emmm job, I ordered my partners 18 Pro max on flex pay they have oddly thrown me into the £59 Full works plan when I live in the busy town as it is? So luckily on friday when it arrives a nice for a change agent is putting the 20% perk nhs discount code and moving me down to a less waste of money EE scam, remember your the customer, you pay their wages by giving them business, it appears tho not many people have chosen to upgrade or are like myself awaiting for the duo fold iphone £2711 for my partners 18 Pro max 2TB in silver i dread to think what this 2TB folding iphone is going to set me back, but anyway goodluck and remember if your being refused credit for a phone try a sim only with EE first then they will build up a trust paying customer i believe 😉 or so I've read try not to keep applying especially for a premium expensive device its very unlikely unfortunately 

Goodluck let us know and keep phoning to find out
