- No, haven't even got a N97 for me yet. Maybe December... Gave him a 3600 Slide I won in a Nokia contest for journalists
- Good to hear from you Meraj. I'm willing to bet it wasn't a Nokia N97 that you gave to your father?

I waited five minutes in the queue, the person in front wanted a Vodafone contract for her son. CPW don't do Voda so she left with the promise of the same deal on Orange. Good sales move.
The very nice sales manager (CPW Hertford - giver her a bonus) filled out all the credit reference details on screen (CPW version of course). I had brought along passport and two utility bills which were waved aside as all I needed was my credit card. Great, apart from I can never ever remember the number. Half an hour later and back with the code I waited expectantly for the £1 fee to go through. Declined. Ahh. Try again. Declined. Watch screen. PIN OK. Declined. Drat. Then CPW credit check said OK.
How does that work? My address is OK, but my credit card company declines the transaction (though I have credit left)?
Whole process took 10 minutes + half hour messing around in the car.
No matter. Looking forward to a bit of iPhone 3G magic.

That's the "service" industry of modern GB for you. Absolutely bloody hopeless. The second anything happens that varies one micron from their procedure book, they're utterly lost. That's the real benefit of doing all your shopping online: Better prices? Nice. More choice? Gotcha. Delivered to my door? Love it. NOT having to deal with people one rung up from burger flipping at Maccy D's? The angels are singing in heaven...

The O2 customer forums have lots of people complaining about similar issues with the chip and pin security check via carphone warehouse.
