Order placed (April) but no further information?

Former Member

I placed an order for a Raspberry Pi back in April, I received an order number in an email, yet I have received no more information, or emails about my order, nor can I see it in my order history. Any help would be great.

 

Thanks,

 

Dan.

  • Hi Daniel, I know this sounds like a really stupid question and it does not help you, and there is a risk of hi-jacking the thread you've just started BUT, I have just registered my interest in the Raspberry Pi. Is that all i need to do to order it, or do i need to hand some money over somewhere. I just cant find a 'link' that will take me to ordering the Pi.

     

    Thanks

    Hi Ian,

     

    If you've 'registered your interest', that's all you've done.  They should email you when you can order.  At least, this is what should happen.

     

    I registered my interest a week or so after launch.  Then I had an email inviting me to 'pre-order' which I did on 31st March which gave me a reference number (ORP).  Since then I've heard nothing despite some indication that everyone ordering with Farnell before 18th April would have a confirmed delivery date by early May.

     

    So don't hold your breath.

    Hi all

     

    I've registered interest on the 9th of March

    I've received email with "time to order" on the 31st of May, I've place

    this order on the same day I received email.

    All went well, At the end I was prompt with the tracking order but I did

    not receive this by email and I forgot to take a note of what was on

    screen.

    Therefore i've tried tracking this by calling farnell sales ,

    they advise me this was not something they could answer through the phone

    was told to contact the foundation

     

    I've been charged on my paypal account for the raspberry pi.

    ok thanks for clarifying. Looks like I'm way down the list.....

    I want to run it as a Logitech Squeezebox Server ( as my NAS box is too slow !), so was hoping for an easy quick win. I had no idea of the amazing potential of this device, and now want to buy 2 so my 13 yr old son can start playing. He's already come home and showed me 'scratch' from school, as the teachers are pushing the kids to 'play' with this.

     

    (squeezebox is a wifi audio media centre)

    (scratch is a GUI simple game designer to basic shoot-em-ups)
