Default Dell outlet Uk

Hi,

Has anybody had trouble with the Dell outlet website? I tried to order a computer this morning and I took ten minutes max typing all the details and then when I clicked the button to buy it said I'd been typing for too long and that the computer had been removed from my basket. Every time a computer gets removed from my basket it takes hours, or something overnight to reappear on the system. I have even tried emptying cache, restarting the browser and restarting the computer. Also the 'contact' link on the page is broken so I cannot report the problem. Is this usual? Do I just need to keep at it and paste in all the fields so I get finished super-fast?

Thanks,

J

I had the same issue - just tried buying a laptop tonight and not sure if someone else has now bought it or it is in the ethernet somewhere!!!

Guess the site gets a lot of traffic and lots of people putting the same item in their basket one after another!!

i think you can order over the phone if that helps?

It's good to know it's not specific to my browser or anything then. I hoped to complete online to take advantage of various coupons. I will keep trying. I think It's some kind a weird challenge to keep us sharp.

Good luck with your attempts too.

You too!

What coupons have you got to use?

i've only seen the 2.5% today - can you use the voucher in the outlet too then?

There are also problems with the Dell GB main website which been going on for over a week now. Dell are aware of the problems and until a fix is in place I think sometimes you just need to be patient while placing orders, just try waiting, refreshing your browser etc, you will get there eventually.
