Logged in at 6.15, been over a hour wait and now down to 54 minutes, it’s peak excitement I finally can see movement, but for how long is anyone’s guess! 😂

Panic panic

BeyondMyWits · 05/11/2024 07:08

Everybody must be getting slots and logging off all their devices... just dropped 8 min in 1 actual min.

Have a feeling Tesco Chris queue is coming on the school run this morning!

Red line under m in time, have to wake teens in 15 minutes will see where we are then, still over an hour apparently

chattyness · 05/11/2024 07:13

down to 13 now, come on!

Bornlazy · 05/11/2024 07:13

Are people signing out of the app when they've finished booking their slot? If you don't I think you slow the queue down.

Mine did that but did right itself a minute or two later.

Opened the app at 5.15am. Said 19 minutes once the queue opened at 6am, immediately dropped to 8 minutes. I was checked out by 6.10am. Then booked a slot for the Wednesday before, but forgot to book one for New Year, doh! Will go back to that later and hope for the best. It's not critical. Good luck everyone!

BeyondMyWits · 05/11/2024 07:15

39 min now (red line under the m in minutes)

UrbanDieter · 05/11/2024 07:16

Done, in out placeholder bananas. 1 hr wait.

TheWomanTheyCallJayne · 05/11/2024 07:18

Okay I’m done.
Was four minutes after it said I was in before it suddenly decided to actually let me shop.
So, don’t panic like I did. It’ll get there.

Good luck
(only took me 2 ¼ hours from start 😁)

TheShellBeach · 05/11/2024 07:18

Well, that's me sorted.
I'm going back to bed now.
😂

29 mins, at the n in minute
Getting tense

Commuting to work and on the underground with patchy service!!

VerbenaGirl · 05/11/2024 07:20

The countdown timing were pretty accurate for me, joined at about 8 minutes to 6, waited just over an hour, pretty decent slots still available where I am (nothing on 24th, but quite a few on the days before that)), threw some wine in my basket and checked out and logged out. Applications for my daughter’s second year uni accommodation open at 8am this morning, but hopefully the queue won’t be quite so long for that :-)

Bixterret · 05/11/2024 07:20

One hour wait

ByAssociation · 05/11/2024 07:20

42 minutes here, it's going minute for minute and not jumping any quicker. Looks like I'll be in at 8am, 1 hour 45 mins in total.

MsChatterbox · 05/11/2024 07:20

Got my slots sorted!! Went for the Sunday and then I booked my new years slot for the 30th! Good luck everyone still waiting!

WhatASadLittleLifeJayne · 05/11/2024 07:21

If you’ve found this stressful, I booked an Ocado Xmas shop about 4 weeks ago with zero waiting or queueing or aggro. But I get it if you enjoy this process, tis the season 😄🎄🦃

Spacie · 05/11/2024 07:22

Logged in at 5:55 got in at 7:10. Queue time predictions were surprisingly accurate and most slots were still available.

ByAssociation · 05/11/2024 07:25

Spoke to soon, it's not minute for minute anymore 🤦‍♀️

SoiledMyselfDuringSomeTurbulence · 05/11/2024 07:26

Sorry if this has been answered already, but what dates count as Christmas slots? I need one for the 27th for a relative, but not sure if that'd be available yet.

DustyLee123 · 05/11/2024 07:26

I’ve been in over an hour and it’s still saying 39 minutes

FlibbertyGibbitt · 05/11/2024 07:28

Got on at 6:45 only managed to get Monday 23rd

They don't deliver on the 24th

TinselTarTars · 05/11/2024 07:31

Mines not showing further deliveries after 25 Nov, am I missing something. Been queuing for an hour!
