t-mobile got about 25 in stock as i just got mine after ringing then every day checking so be quick. t-mobile direct that is. 0845 412 5000 for upgrade ppl try the same for new contract i guess.
I've just called them and they told me they're still out of stock
well thats a lie then coz the guy told me they had 30 in today but only 25 as direct orders. and i did get mine at last
I guess it depends who you speak to.
The new stock should really be going to people who are already waiting, so why they're selling it to people who phone up I don't know. :evil:
i guess i got one coz been waiting and it was an upgrade
Yes they had a few today
I ordered mine on Monday and the girl from business sales just nabaged to get her hands on it for me, she said they were only a dozen there and I was lucky, I have two coming tomorrow.
Now, with 58% of people having screen aligment issues, AND kepping in mind that the lucky 42% may just owned theirs long enough...
What are the odds that BOTH my Varios will have screen alignment issues??
I run a betting site for gamers, www.sharkwaters.com, and will bet anybody, 4 to 1 odds, that both of these will be sent back??
any takers w/ SA issues?
mine
I got aall to say mine was on its way But I have been waiting ages.
nope
got two htc 637, hermes 300's today...
On phone to T-Mobile now say they have 20 in stock, just ordered mine which will come Tuesday

Hi
SupereTrader.co.uk are the only mail order outfit in the UK that I know of that claim to have stock of the Experia. Expansys & Clove have sold out.
I phoned supertrader on Friday to ensure that they had stock - was informed that they had plenty; I agreed with the bloke that if I bought there and then, and paid their £15.99 Saturday delivery charge (Royal Mail Special Delivery), they would ship it Friday for delivery today.
Anyway, they never bothered to post it. My suspicion is that they never did actually have the device in stock. They have taken the money from my account (including the £15.99) Saturday delivery charge.
I've emailed them to cancel the order - as far as I am concerned they failed to uphold their side of the bargain.
So... for others thinking about buying an Experia, avoid this crowd - its unlikely that they actually have stock.
I checked out their ratings on the price comparison sites - and they appeared to be reasonable... not from my experience. If they could not ship it for Saturday delivery, they should have told me, and I would not have bothered ordering.

Let me tell you one thing superetrader is the best and I got my xperia 2 weeks ago from them and they delivered all the time mine was next day delivery and they delivered I always bought all my fones from them, and they never ever let me down it is the best supplier in the uk or world wise, be patient you cancelled to soon they have the black ones in stock, they just emailed saying they had the black ones but i am happy with my silver one from them,
I got mine from them
very efficent and helpful
next day delivery £507.99 not bad at all
highly recommended
I bought an Eten X500 from them many months ago , paid for Saturday delivery on Friday afternoon and had to take Monday morning off work cause they posted normal next working day service, never replied to my emails and i never got the promised call back from my phone calls
Hi
I suspect my story is the same as csw43's. Maybe it will arrive today, then I just have to get the excess £8 out of them for not sending it Saturday delivery as agreed, and wait until next weekend before I can get to the PO and collect it. They wont get my cancelation request until this morning so if they already posted it, I guess I will (eventually) recieve it.
We shall see.
Nigel
Does the website open?
Its getting redirected to a parked domain.
No such web site as supertrader.co.uk
The company is actually superetrader.co.uk
They mention to have +10 pcs of the xperia. Is this accurate?
Aye, spelt the name wrong - unfortunately, I cant change the title, have corrected the initial post. Phoned them this morning - they still claim to have stock.

Did you receive it?
I've got a few issues that I could exagerate a little bit on and probably get t-mobile to send me a replacement phone. I might just do it if I know I'm going to get one with rc29.
Anyone know what the current replacement units are shipping with?
I believe they are shipping them with the new RC but I could be mistaken...
my replacement
I got a replecement 3 days after I pressed the screen trying to silence my alarm one morning and by the time i could see the screen it was updating to RC30 and it was not rootable and I had just started reading about JF's early work, im just not sure how long ago it was, but it was towards the begining of ota rc30, it was the first time i was asked to update and it came in the middle of the night.
if I had to guess its been 10 days to 2 weeks since I got the replacement...
I bought it on day 1 oct 22, right I called tmob for my replacement 15 days after that(1 day over limit to store return) it came like 3 days later, as they shipped it express but it was a weekend or holiday that delayed next day to like 3 days, so I dunno maybe you can do the math...
maybe somebody got a more recent replacement and can tell you better, but I was told that there were probably no "refurbs" as in went to customers broke and got fixed, and when my replacement was shipped it would be a phone that failed tests at the factory and were refurb'd before leaving htc, it did look like it was in mint condition
bhang
cousin did it last week got a rc29, worth a shot,
worse that can happen is you get a rc30 and no more root lol
you can always just send the rc30 back and keep the broken screen
got it 2 days ago rc29
Cool might just send mine back then, trackball keeps sticking on mine and i don't have root

My touch screen died on my HD2, it was one of the older versions bought in Jan last year. I sent it off to HTC in April and they've had it over a month now. They say the parts are in Taiwan but have no idea when they'll ship. I simply can't beleive such a big company can happily take my phone off me for over a month and still not be able to tell me when they'll repair it. And to top it off, they sent my proof of purchase, which had my name/address etc on it, to a totally different customer; the numpty repair shop had clearly shoved my paperwork in to some elses repaired HTC phone.
Anyone else have the same issues with them at the moment? Anyone managed to get a replacement handset out of them yet???
This is a high bureaucracy if you want something repaired under warranty...

Funnily enough they sent me an email today to say the phone should be with me on the 25th and the delay was due to moving the repair centre. That's the first time they mentioned that, up till today, it was always "we're waiting on parts, not sure what's happening". If only people could be honest. At least they've offered a free accesory up to 50 quid as a way of saying sorry so that's not too bad. Still, this whole debacle makes me think my next phone won't be a Sensation but a Galaxy S2. I hope Samsung do better repairs!

Got the same call today - repaired phone will be back with me next week & I chose the Bluetooth Headset for £50 as a freebie from HTC (as an apology for the delay in returning the phone to me).
The experience has not made me want to jump from the HTC brand (been with them since the old days of the SPV) - therefore I will still be grabbing a Sensation when my contract expires in the next few months.
Mine got picked up 6 weeks ago today and I got the same email yesterday. It was a Desire that I sent off.
try to ask them send u a new phone ^^
Sent from my HTC HD2 using XDA App
Ive tried many times lol.
Have any of you got UPS tracking numbers for your devices to be shipped back?
My HD2 finally arrived back today with a nice new working touch screen (just as HTC said it would).
Although the HTC website says that it is awaiting pick-up by the courier service
Now I have to find another screen protector & try my best to apply it minus dust bubbles & turned up corners.
Well, well.... Got my phone back today after 6 weeks and 5 days unrepaired, exactly with the same fault as when I sent it and with my battery missing to top it off.
HTC have now told me that I will be receiving a brand new Desire S for compensation, its supposed to arrive today or tomorrow.
Anyone else been offered a brand new phone for compensation?
Lets say that my experience in the Benelux area is not much better.
The first time my HD2 got into repair, 1.5 months ago. 3 appointments to pick it up and not showing up with the most lame excuses.
Device was fixed after that in 1 week time which is good to me but the delivery back was another thing .... again.
The guy on the phone also asked me why I was angry after 3 missed appointments. Well if I do that in my current role I will not make it untill the end of the week.
Now after a month my phone has a MB problem and I already feared the support thing when it started happening. Needless to say I was right again!
Called in on Monday morning and was asked when it should be picked up. Two choices Tuesday 9am-1pm or 1pm-6pm, so I choose 9am-1pm.
They picked it up at 4:20pm. Not so funny when you think that I have to arrange my working day (and customers) for it.
To top it off. This morning I get an email that the device they received is not a desire hd as mentioned in the case but a hd2. sighhh
-------
Aangemeld Product:
Desire HD - Desire HD
Referentienummer: 11BECxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Ontvangen Product:
TOUCH HD 2 - TOUCH HD 2
--------
And I won't go into detail on what happened to my Touch Pro a year ago which went into service a couple of times and wasn't fixed at all.
... and we have a winner ... again.
Got a message last Friday that my HD2 was ready.
Now this morning I asked Dynafix (the company that 'fixes' it in the Benelux)where it was and what was done to fix the issue.
'installed the latest rom' I was speechless.
I already told the HTC guy what was done before it was picked up and ofcourse installing the latest rom is one of them.
About 20 minutes later by coincidence I get customer care on the line asking me if I was satisfied with the repaired phone. (That I still don't have btw)
I mention what I just heard from the repaircenter and that the device will not work like it should.
It will have to come in 1 more time and then they can do a swap if it gets approved.
The device has not been working like it should since March the 27th.
I asked if it could get swapped for another model and I got a straight 'no'.
HTC is seriously getting on my nerves. Spending over 2000 Euros on phones over the past 3 years and not doing something in return for customers is not a good thing.
I was tempted to ask for a Sensation and pay a part of it myself but now I am more than tempted to get the Samsung S2.
Edit: The thing arrived 15 minutes ago ..... pop in battery and 5 minutes later ... stuck
Already recorded it to have some proof http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u7rswNyy2DI
Edit 2: Contacted HTC again to ask them if they can exchange it.
This really .... me of. They concider the last repair not a repair but a software upgrade so they will not exchange it.
Strange since I sent it in for a repair and already mentioned that I did a rom upgrade etc.
...really are a Company I have concerns about. Last night at 11pm they had '100+' in stock of the HTC One. By 6am this morning they were 'stock due in 4 days'. Really? Or is this just a great way to get people to order an item they then find is out of stock.
I speak from experience of having waited 2 months for this Company to refund me for an HTC ONE X+ that I returned within 3 days of receipt. The reason for this delay? There wasn't one. I called them approx 3 times per week to be continually told the refund was being processed, however after 7 weeks I finally got the honest truth.... They hadn't taken any action at all and had simply not actioned the refund because they had mislaid my card details.
Treat with extreme caution

So with all the issues you had before you go ahead and order from them again?? ::confused
Expansys are the official HTC accessories company for UK.
I have no experience of ordering phone from them, but have bought numerous genuine HTC accessories from them.
My experience has been positive, one recent purchase was HTC flip case, after receiving my order , without contacting them I received an email advisory that a improved version was available, and without any extra charge was sent to me.
So whilst not discounting your experience, I have really good service and consequently wouldn't hesitate to buy from them in future
Sent from my HTC One using xda app-developers app
I tend to agree, I have previously enjoyed ordering items from them but since last summer they seem to have made a turn for the worst. I never received a 32 GB sdcard and despite emailing them several times I never did get a refund. Also I ordered a galaxy note 10.1 for Christmas and they didn't dispatch in time for Christmas.......because they were waiting for the sdcard to come back in stock..... .hello!
Sent with desire from My One

Sorry mis-read your original post so my apologies.... note to self grab a coffee and wake up before replying!
its really bizarre, as some retailers don't have any issues with stock whilst some are playing this trick the OP mentioned.. Wifey ordered from Very and she is still waiting.. I thought the stock issues should have been sorted out by now.. I can feel your pain..
Unfortunately, they have a bad system. The only way I was able to understand it was like this: Say they have 120 backorders, and you were customer number 101 from those 120. They then receive 100 units, instead of shipping them directly, they update their inventory/system that they received 100 units, hence their website show 100 in stack, but then they ship them to the 100 customers and stock is finished. The balance 20 backorders will have to wait for a new batch!
So I pre-ordered the note 4 on the 24th like eveyone else super excited to receive info that it shipped early. Sure enough Monday comes and goes I cleared my schedule waiting for ,Ups and checked outside to find notice on my door that they tried to deliver but never rang bell or knocked on door. Was too late to hold for pickup so they said it would go out on tues. called around 5pm to find out it wasnt on truck for delivery. Put a hold for pickup and went down to station to find out they cannot locate package and they have placed an investigation on it and that it might of been stolen??? Kidding me??? dont they have cameras in factory. Tmobile was very understanding and said they would overnight one which should of arrived today only to find out its still pending shipping even though my other would of arrived Monday and they told me this doesnt get released until friday so with overnight shipping wont arrive until monday. even though the Pre-order ones were released early. Now im without a phone for rest of week as Like anyone I sold my galaxy note 3 on ebay and already shipped it out. I would of just risked getting in store tomorrow but now I have double charges on my credit card until they find original. This sucks anyone else ever have issue with UPS :crying:

Ever heard of Murphy's law?? Sorry to hear bro but I've never had problems with ups so far maybe it's just one of those freak accidents
Forgive me - I don't mean to come off sounding critical - but why in the name of.....would you sell your previous phone before you had even gotten the new phone in hand? I can't imagine ever doing that - there are just too may odd possibilities that could happen - hind sight is 20 20 - but this one could have obviously been avoided if you had just waited until the new phone was in your hands before you sold the previous phone.
having said that - I am sorry you had problems - and hope, for your sake that your new phone gets here soon.
