I'm in the queue and my estimated wait time has gone up from 11 minutes to 37...
natalie12 11/23/2021 10:51
Now over an hour again
kiss7787 11/23/2021 10:53
I was in the Queue from the beginning, and got down to 5 minutes in the queue, then it went up to 20 minutes then half and hour then an hour and now their out of stcok again.......

I was in the queue in less than 10 seconds after clicking the Discord Link, I was doubtful but after about 15 minutes in the queue it let me in and completed checkout sucessfully. Incase it helps I would recommend making sure you have a debit card already added to your PSN account beforehand as the store doesn't accept any other payment method for Ps5's which I find out during checkout. This was my thrid attempt at getting one from the PS Store so it can be done though my previous two attempts were "minutes" after clicking the discord link instead of seconds. Hope this helps.
kiss7787 11/23/2021 10:55
I clicked the discord link right away as well, and I got the out of stock page, I had to refresh the page for about 10 minutes before it gave me the event will start in 10 minutes page.......

Cirtus, have you received a email confirmation yet? I believe I also managed to get one but just waiting for the confirmation email
citrusmaximus 11/23/2021 12:06
No e-mail confirmation yet, I had to go to the playstation direct store to see the order in my history, when I went to the PSN store it doesn't show in there so it might be treated like a different store.
citrusmaximus 11/23/2021 10:48
I did actually get an e-mail confirmation but it was in my Junk, so make sure you check that, it also got dispatched the same day and should apparently arrive the next.
guest192045111/23/2021 10:58
I really thought I would be able to purchase ps5 today as I was able to enter the site for the first time after 15min wait in the queue. Had all in hand, cr*dit car, psn account and everything. When I click the purchase button it tells me it is now out of stock. Seriously... it is so frustrating to try to buy this one!!
nirwolnir11/23/2021 11:09
Make sure card details and address are correct before buying, the site told me my details were wrong but didn't say where and by the time I figured it out the PS5 in my basket had sold out. Went from very happy to very frustrated
mewsha11/23/2021 11:10
I clicked the push notification yesterday and got in the queue for the 15min countdown. Went through quickly and got one. I logged into PSN first so it was all ready but my card was out of date, so spent ages adding a new one which eventually worked, but expected it would be out of stock. I suggest adding card before. Also got a GAME bundle a few days ago but I think I'll just resell that on eBay and keep the games.

Got it ordered on Monday turned up today. Cheers Sony
ptaker11/24/2021 7:58:
Seem to be a lot more coming into the country now so should be easier to bag one before Xmas
guest185406311/24/2021 5:51:
Ordered on Tuesdays drop, paid the fee & the £9.99 delivery option, Sony says despatched, waited in for delivery from DPD, email from DPD saying sorry we missed you despite no one coming, now getting a shipping delayed from Sony email anyone else?
guest225499 11/24/2021 6:33:
Exact same thing happened to me this evening at 16:47 in Edinburgh, the image the driver sent as proof of his attempt was a picture of a store sign at the bottom of the street, the picture had clearly been taken with the driver still in the van so its obvious no attempt was made by him. The thing that annoyed me the most was he was at the bottom of the street and couldn't be bothered walking up, instead he marked it as attempted delivery
guest1914924 11/25/2021 10:15
For what its worth, DPD are a terrible company that overwork their drivers and underpay them. Yes there are no doubtcr*p drivers too, but I prefer to put the blame on the company for putting them in some s***ty situations. They just do not have the time to care for any individual delivery, nomatter how much you actually paid for it.
guest1854063 11/25/2021 11:01
Good to know I'm not the only one experiencing issues, an update as of this morning, DPD initially said between 10.03 & 11.03 at the pick up point for deliverry, I then get a DPD update now saying it is too big, I am now being told they will try again on 6th DC after calling them, right now I have low hopes on a £450 piece of kit as for the £9 express delivery what was the point, either DPD are trying to steal it or Sony never posted it in the first place
kiss778711/25/2021 10:39
Hm... looks like getting to that event page earlier does not put you in higher in the queue than anyone that joins later, looks like it's random, i was on the event page 5 minutes before the browser and discord alerts on mydesktop computer (Sony has been doing this at the same time every day except yesterday where they didn't do it at all) the alert came to my phone (not connected to wifi so on a different ip address) 5 minutes later so I clicked on that, i got through to the queue with more than an hour to wait on my desktop and my phone is saying my estimated wait time is 19 minutes
natalie12 11/25/2021 10:52
I started with more than an hour to wait. Finally went down to 4 minutes and its just jumped back up to "more than an hour" again 🤦♀️
guest191492411/25/2021 10:41
Every time I tried to add to cart or pay I get "An error occurred. Please contact customer support if the issue persists." 😐
guest1914924 11/25/2021 10:52
and its out of stock again, I can't actually figure out how to buy one of these things in this terrible store interface ..
nigcom11/25/2021 10:45
digital sold out
jjjjjj0511/25/2021 10:47
OMG got one!!
natalie1211/25/2021 10:53
All sold out again
dosk3n11/25/2021 10:53
Theres something not right with this queueing system as every time I get put in the queue I wait, get down to a few mins remaining then it shoots to over an hour. Thats not how a queue should work...
guest160670 11/25/2021 10:56
Same!
chrisl91 11/25/2021 11:02
Same for me too!
willow9911/25/2021 10:54
What a waste of time that was. Got through and everytime i tried checking out kept getting "something went wrong message"
guest1914924 11/25/2021 10:57
Ok at least its not me! Will have to just keep smashing that button until it works next time they get stock
kiss778711/25/2021 10:54
Damn it got all the pay to the checkout, it asked me to confirm the payment through my banking a error occurred, then out of stock..... same time tomorrow I guess
jjjjjj05 11/25/2021 10:57
Are you using a cr*dit card? I kept getting the same error last few days but tried debit card today and went through with no issue.
kiss7787 11/25/2021 10:58
Visa debit
assassin11/25/2021 10:54
Message last updated: 10:52 PS5 consoles are out of stock for the day,
guest191185811/25/2021 10:55
Managed to get one! I had the queue on my laptop and on my mobile. Every time I would queue on just the laptop It would get into the store after the stock finished, I got in after a few mins on my mobile, bought one and the laptop is still in the queue!
vecna11/25/2021 10:56
joined the queue immediately, but no stock 
nirwolnir11/25/2021 10:57
Got a PS5 in the basket again, this time the checkout wasn't loading. Sick of it
lyndsey130911/25/2021 10:59
Just been in a queue for nearly an hour! To be told it's my turn but there out of stock!!! This is getting ridiculous now! And turning into a full time job trying to get 1!!!!! I cannot understand how people are getting them! I'm on every site every day!!!
guest191387511/25/2021 12:57
He was notified on Twitter yesterday. They wrote today that there will be consoles after 10am for the public. I was waiting at the PC and I was queued. I waited in line for about 15 minutes and I was redirected to the ps direct website where I simply bought one. It was easy and fast. You have to watch it well and be there in time.
guest191897111/25/2021 3:21:
My husband and I both joined the queue on our separate accounts. I didn’t get through but he did after 10 minutes. The digital sold out whilst he was inputting his card details but he was able to grab the disk version straight away. I believe it’s just pot luck in the order you get put through.
