Tesco slots

Been getting slots at midnight for weeks now and it's always said I am in a queue. Tonight it says I may experience delays and I am to refresh page myself. Am I screwed or is this their new thing since last Thursday?

I just got put through dead on midnight and all slots for the 14th are gone...??

The site totally crashed earlier on when I was amending my order that comes tomorrow, luckily the app still works.

Not sure what is wrong with the website but I think it's crashed - hence why it's telling you to refresh, whereas the app has the usual queue system.

Shit. I'm screwed. I have been lucky, had a slot every week for months.

I got through on the app but no slots

Rockbird · 24/04/2020 00:12

Same here. Lots of people saying same thing. I just want to go to sleep!

fessmess · 24/04/2020 00:14

Downloaded app, no slots. But click and collect still there. Book one, put my usual milk in but it's crashed at checkout. Same message.

Get the app and just check it randomly, different times of every day. I’ve managed a slot every week since lockdown and I’ve never tried at midnight. I checked yesterday at 1pm- nothing. Checked again at 3pm- loads of slots, but you have to be so so fast before they disappear.

fessmess · 24/04/2020 00:22

Thanks for tip. Seems it is just pot luck. I have a click and collect slot but only if I can check out. Likewise, I just want to go to bed.

Definitely. My mum lives in the same village as me, I texted her saying quick there are slots, she logged straight in and they’d all gone Sad I check it at 2,4 am etc when up with ds but I have the best luck in the day. Good luck!!

Anyone having any joy at the moment? Is anyone having any luck checking out and/or getting slots? I am wondering if they haven't released any delivery ones for the 21st tonight. I got one for the 14th at about 9 on Tuesday morning. There is no logic. This is more stressful than going to the bloody shop.

I can’t see anything beyond the 14th but my friend can see a week ahead of that. No idea why? It really is hit and miss though.

Rockbird · 24/04/2020 00:31

No still the same here

Twixandtwirl · 24/04/2020 00:36

Just got a booking for the 20may.

SamK93 · 24/04/2020 00:38

Try Iceland! They have plenty of slots and so much more available than you'd think, grocery wise.

fessmess · 24/04/2020 00:51

Iceland don't deliver here, unless you shop in store which kind of defeats the object.

Finally got a slot and checked out at 5:55. All delivery slots available at that time. I didn't stay up all night btw. Just checked phone every time I woke. Night flushes DO have a purpose.

It looks like they had technical problems last night. Did anyone notice you can now book 4 weeks ahead instead of 3? Apparently last Monday when people were waiting for Tues 12th to be released, they released 12th-18th all at once!

Rockbird · 24/04/2020 12:38

Still only up to the 14th here. And didn't get anything last night or this morning.

SquashedFlyBiscuit · 24/04/2020 12:41

Im shopping for 2 different addresses and Im wondering if they're not showing as available if you already have a delivery (or 2) booked? So I have 2 soon (my mum and myself) but I cant book for 21st at all...

SquashedFlyBiscuit · 24/04/2020 12:42

Which leaves nearly a month eeek.

We're on their paid delivery plan so maybe we see a few more ahead? They're full though!

ScarfLadysBag · 24/04/2020 12:43

Only delivery pass customers (and possible those on the government list) can see an extra week ahead now. They changed it this week I believe, so now delivery pass customers get the first pick before release to general public.

Murinae · 24/04/2020 12:44

I can see up to the 21st

ScarfLadysBag · 24/04/2020 12:44

Oh and you can only have one booked order a week and can't see any more slots for that calendar week once you've booked a slot.
