UK Pre-order delayed and SMS: Z Fold3, Z Flip3

[Members_vXaXRUk]

Looks like the UK are also being hit with pre-order delays - I ordered a Flip 3 for delivery on release date and received a text yesterday saying that delivery will be delayed until mid-September! This is really poor on Samsung's part - customer loyalty takes a massive hit when pre-orders are not fulfilled.

Anyone else in the UK had this issue?

Come on people! Don't you read the news? There is a global chip shortage which means production of many items has reduced dramatically.

This is completely understandable but Samsung should have informed people before they placed their orders. If that's not possible, they could atleast send a detailed message which confirms what product is being delayed as many of us have ordered multiple items.

Ordered a grey Z Flip 3 on 21st August and have a note on the order saying 5 to 6 week delivery date. That puts it in October. Hope its not that long!

Mine still says it’s getting delivered on Friday so fingers crossed!

My preorder still showing arriving 27th August but no further update except for the dodgy text message received and then nothing. Annoying has had other orders and one arriving the other not.

[marcjones182]

Same with me. Hoping it still arrives on Friday

The support confirm that I will recieve the Fold 3 on time without any delays.

Did you receive a text message claiming that your order was delayed and would be delivered on Sunday 9th September?
