Actually, even the Wifi issue is due to my own carelessness, didn't realise I needed to put in the Wifi antennae myself! Downloaded speed jumped from barely 1MB/s to 20MB/s! It may not seem much to some people but compared to what I'm used to it seems like the speed of God himself!

I'm looking for a new desk myself, the one I'm using is very, very old, but I managed to find a used Herman Miller Mirra for for around 350 quid and I can't recommend it enough, it's very comfortable. Though, as a note, I've only been using it for about a month now.

I think I would rather just dump it into a river than do that again so soon, it would probably save time. Other than that it seems to be working pretty good! Just downloading my backlog of games now, it'll be a relief to finally play stuff on a graphics setting higher than "low" and praying for...

Indeed, I'm absolutely shook and may never recover from the horrors inflicted on me by Fedex customer service.

Dropping in with some good news; my machine finally arrived! Got a call from PCS yesterday evening telling me it had cleared customs around noon yesterday and should arrive this morning, which it did. What's strange about that is that I had been talking to Fedex customer service just an hour...

I definitely didn't enter a VAT number anytime during the process, though PCS' one is on the invoice. Still, finally got into contact with someone who seems to know what was happening (apparently Fedex' entire custom systems was down) who said it's in processing now, which means they just have...

I'm almost certain I did. Unsure how you would even go about ordering as a company? Still, is there some way I can check to be sure? Having this entire delay be due to my own stupidity would be pretty peak irony.

Called Fedex again today to see what the story was and if the EORI number provided by PCS would finally get things sorted. Had to call around 6 times cause they kept redirecting me and the line would get cut, finally got onto customs. Fedex person: "Oh, you're a private individual, you...

Oof, wish I had known that a while ago. Thank!

They only started using Fedex very recently from what I've gathered, due to Brexit. Before that they used the much more reliable DPD.

So maybe some tentative good news? Got an email back from Jamie, the PCS customer service guy I was talking to on Saturday. Which is the exact same number that @NoddyPilot sent onto me a few days ago and which I have already sent onto Fedex through email, so this time I've really got my fingers...

Yes, I contacted them just a bit ago and gave them that EORI and the person promised to follow up. If it works then you will have my undying gratitude. My only concern now is Fedex' competency, it took a week of constant calls before I could even got confirmation on what the issue was, so I...

Yeah you're probably right, just frustrating to have to deal with this when most of the people I end up talking to seem to have about as much of an idea on what's going on as I do

Very much the impression I'm getting, yes.

So PCS weren't really of any help, they had no idea on what an EORI number was themselves, so that's pretty disappointing. All he did was recommend I get an EORI number as Fedex said. I asked to see if they could check whether they had experience with similiar cases to mine and was put on hold...

I don't know if thats it, I'm not even sure how that would have been possible.

Sound, might give that a try tomorrow! I'll try get into contact with PCS first though, see what they have to say. Yeah, I've been checking the forums and seeing other people from ROI receive theirs with minimal difficulty so something definitely doesn't feel right.

That would be a good shout, willing to try anything at this point.

Hey, I'm also from Ireland but Fedex refuse to ship to me unless I supply them with an EORI number? Did you have to do anything like that in order to receive your PC?
