Tesco Christmas slot

Is anyone else trying to get a Christmas delivery slot?

This is my first year booking a delivery and I think I underestimated the demand - I’ve been in the queue for the best part of an hour Shock

Same. Had a feeling it’d be a nightmare! Good luck!

PolarnOPirate · 13/11/2020 07:37

Same, can’t even get onto the app!

I'm not even trying to get a Christmas slot but can't get on to the app to do a normal delivery!

I'm still queuing

I’ve been queuing since five to seven. There was no queue at half past six but no Christmas slots either.

HPLikecraft · 13/11/2020 07:41

Also a queue dweller here! It never usually takes this long!

OhDearWhyAmIFatterly · 13/11/2020 07:41

I'm just trying to get a normal slot and I can't get onto the app!!!

ThursdayLastWeek · 13/11/2020 07:42

I’ve been in the queue for 35 minutes too!

WellyBootsAreYouFrom · 13/11/2020 07:42

I got on right away, but I have delivery saver, perhaps that made a difference. Have you tried closing the app and reopening it? I did that at about 7.03 and it took me straight in. Good luck!

PolarnOPirate · 13/11/2020 07:43

I have delivery saver too, I think slots don’t open for those without until later in the month?

ThursdayLastWeek · 13/11/2020 07:43

I have delivery saver too, no joy

nameychange · 13/11/2020 07:44

I’ve been on the app and website since 7.02 can’t get in on either just in the queue

MoonahStone · 13/11/2020 07:44

I logged on just before 7am and had to wait just under 10mins. Once I booked my slot the checkout screen crashed numerous times which freaked me out a bit. All done now, phew. Just had another quick look and locally there aren't any slots after Sunday now. Good luck to those still trying.

PatchworkElmer · 13/11/2020 07:45

@WellyBootsAreYouFrom I think that Christmas slot access for today is for delivery saver only- those without it can access them from the 20th. So in theory, everyone queuing is a delivery saver customer. I certainly am.

Suspect we won’t be getting one now 😞

PimlicoJo · 13/11/2020 07:50

I think a lot more people have delivery saver now than previously. I certainly never considered it before the first lockdown but am now a regular customer.

Fishfingersandwichplease · 13/11/2020 07:50

Been on since 6.30am am in a queue!

HPLikecraft · 13/11/2020 07:57

Since 6.30? Shock

I've only been there since 6.55 so looks like I've got ages left to wait!

blitzen · 13/11/2020 07:59

I managed to get a slot after queuing on the app for a few min around 07:05. Good luck everyone!

jackstini · 13/11/2020 07:59

Been on since 6.59 and no joy
Going to have to get in the car soon and give up...

Notmydaughteryoubitch · 13/11/2020 08:00

Been queuing since 6.55 no joy so far

Baboutheocelot · 13/11/2020 08:02

I logged in a 7, still in a queue Angry

MyOtherProfile · 13/11/2020 08:03

Opened app at 6.50 and been queuing since. Have to go to work soon Sad

nogooddeedgoesunpunished · 13/11/2020 08:04

Giving up now. School run . Yet another fiasco from Tesco. Every year they cock it up . Cancelling my delivery pass as it appears they can't be bothered to take our money !

Birgitz · 13/11/2020 08:06

If you are using the app, it might be worth trying the website instead, as I’ve found this is often faster

FecktheBoss · 13/11/2020 08:10

both app and website are queue's for me
