Hold your horses, she hasn't even had the baby yet. I don't think anyone envies his job at the moment. Bet Corbyn's glad he didn't get in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, I managed to log in at 4am straight away with out a problem. So try in the early hours to see if that helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, there are over 29 million households in the UK. Even with one delivery per household per week that would mean hundreds of thousands of deliveries per hour plus all the time and people needed to assemble the order to deliver. Your number is no doubt correct, but we're talking about deliveries to aged/infirm/vulnerables here, not everyone in the UK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a fixed delivery slot every Sunday morning. I just edited my order for this week's order no problem. No need to panic buy. I just shop as per the norm. Couple this with milk deliveries and being to work from home, my household can isolate at home without a problem. Ocado are simply as they have already stated prioritising their current customers and stopped new registrations. It is I am afraid pretty fair. They can't serve everyone. Sorry, but is this meant to be helpful?! People like Duffems are trying to solve problems now - telling folk what you achieved 4 years ago isn't really any use, particularly when you add that new registrations aren't being actioned. It's a bit like saying that I had an absolutely stunning holiday in Senegambia a few years ago, but - oh dear! What a shame! You can't now! I'm glad you're safe and secure.

Just answering his question on how people are getting deliveries actually. But also alluding to the fact that you shouldn't rely on the prospect of getting deliveries in a timely manner if you are not already provisioned for it because you simply can't.

pattricia Posted March 28, 2020 Share Posted March 28, 2020 Had my first order delivered from Iceland this morning. Only ordered it yesterday so was surprised to get this slot. Delivery man was very polite and placed the order in the hall without coming in. I would definitely have them again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 28, 2020 Share Posted March 28, 2020 We are a bit confused about our shopping . We fill the order out online currently 2 only of all items BUT! Alot of the items say not available try alternative, and they're unavailable too! What we are confused about is that our order is for 3 weeks time, why is it saying unavailable???.
