I'k lamentable, only I just need to become my frustrations out of my system. I ordered a OnePlus 5T a couple of days ago. It "apparently" shipped pretty fast from Poland to Copenhagen, information technology's destination, and yesterday I was expecting it to be delivered as it arrived at the sorting facility very early morning, merely the tracker didn't update the entire twenty-four hour period and by the end of the twenty-four hours the commitment appointment had changed to yesterday "by the end of the twenty-four hours" to "The Estimated Delivery Engagement is currently unavailable. Delight try over again subsequently." I googled this and panicked and raged a little over the corporeality of times this has happened to people in the past, feeling betrayed, ripped off and afraid that my package was lost somewhere.
Fast forward to this morning, and I call DHL. The adult female on the telephone explains to me that the phone is, in fact, non in Denmark AT ALL. Information technology wasn't on the container from Poland that information technology SHOULD have shipped with. To this one might wonder: why the **** don't you lot do anything about information technology immediately instead of waiting for me to call yous! She told me she would begin an investigation in Poland immediately, but that I certainly wouldn't get the phone today, much to my disappointment later on having promised information technology delivered yesterday. She was pretty rude, didn't apologize on behalf of her company'south error, and now I'chiliad left waiting for something that might have been lost or stolen in Poland. I payed a ******* premium in actress aircraft fees to go "fast and secure commitment" in improver to the price of the phone, which isn't expensive merely it's heavy on my personal budget, and this is what I get. OnePlus doesn't want to refund the premium shipping costs, I've asked.
FIRST UPDATE: Telephone has not been located in Poland. DHL will call me equally soon every bit they have news from Leipzig.
Second UPDATE: Manifestly my phone was accidentally sent to a facility in Mali, West Africa. Woopty doo. It should have been sent from Mali to my location. I don't know how long it'southward going to take. I expect to have more news tomorrow. I have updated the tracker to reverberate this.
3rd UPDATE: The package has been candy in Bamako, Republic of mali. I'yard simply going to update this every time I come across the tracker has updated.
FOURTH UPDATE: The package has finally left Mali, on form towards Copenhagen I hope. With any luck it will arrive at the sorting facility early morning.
5th UPDATE: The package has now arrived at a sort facility in Paris. I'k a little surprised that they didn't send it directly to Copenhagen. I'yard non expecting to receive the parcel today.
SIXTH UPDATE: The woman handling the example just called me to explain that the DHL guys in Poland accidentally put my phone in the wrong container and was sent to Mali. This doesn't explain why it was scanned in Leipzig and Denmark and why information technology appears on the map in a tracking app where it seems to travelled FROM Kingdom of denmark to Africa and dorsum to Europe. Very fishy.
7th UPDATE: My phone has been candy in Paris
EIGHT UPDATE: Departed facility in Paris
Ninth UPDATE: Package finally arrived in Denmark this morning time and is with the carrier for delivery old today "by the end of the day"
Tenth AND FINAL UPDATE: So, I finally got the phone, and information technology's great. I really like it. Everything seems to be in club, the phone wasn't missing or anything, and the package didn't look like it had been opened or tampered with, though information technology did look a piddling muddy. I fifty-fifty got my money back for the shipping, which was a huge surprise to me actually, so I'k actually happy most that!
So, my final words: Thank you to everyone who commented, helped me, showed sympathy and generally just agreed with the fact that this whole situation has been completely ridiculous. For anyone considering buying a OnePlus 5T through the official website, I promise y'all see my thread, considering yous need to go in with "realistic" expectations of how your package volition exist treated by DHL lol. If you lot ask me it might even exist easier to merely purchase it through your phone company or some other retailer, unless yous just really want the phone for the cheapest price possible. Even so, unless you absolutely MUST have tracking (and tracking is a good affair in case messed up things similar this should happen) and so go alee and buy priority shipping, simply don't expect it to necessarily evidence up inside the 1-three days promised, and don't be afraid to complain and claim your money dorsum if it doesn't. I wait the parcel will show up on time in virtually cases, only I was very unlucky, and apparently I'g not the only one.
