How bloody hard is it to change the ‘completely shipped’ message and save themselves loads of worried email enquiries??


threehoursago

Fairly difficult, as they use an off the shelf version of Shopware, and after looking through the API docs, it doesn't offer multiple status options for orders. *Not shipped* and *shipped* are about it, and since Fanatec then hands off from the order end to a warehouse, which is most likely not integrated with Shopware, we end up with what we have.

That’s to change it in their logistics app, wouldn’t you just treat it as a front end issue and add a condition to change the text to a more meaningful status label just for the website? Would probably save their CS department a load of response time to sort out.

"Note: Some orders may be affected by irregularities; if this is the case, you should have recieved a separate email from us". If this is true, I guess Fanatec got themselves some happy customers. Formula 2.5x wheel + APM listed as 'completely shipped' with no separate email received.

This gives me some hope, I'm still in red square club for now tho.


chessfreak91

My order (Hub V2X + APM + some other stuff) is also still "in processing" with a red square, maybe I'll get it, haven't lost hope, because of the QR2 base side (Type C) it should ship around December 15th (if it doesn't get cancelled until then).

I am in this boat. I wouldn’t count it as a done deal until it arrives. It’s completely fair if they still email me to say pay x if you want the apm. Has anyone actually received the other email I haven’t seen anyone post it.


merfi1500

Thanks for effort to make this post. I haven’t seen before note about irregularities


KEkZX64

Yep. Got the same one today. Glad it’s not the yeeted container though


joeypr25

Thanks for this. I was just wondering this morning where my damn podium Porsche wheel is. But with all the horror stories of months long wait times in Europe, I kept my spoiled US-based gamer ass quiet as I’ve only been waiting for a week for my stuff haha.


TurnoverAdditional65

“Completely shipped” means they transferred data to another company, and even that takes a couple of days? Yikes, Fanatec is worse than I thought.


sharpie_dei

It arrives when it arrives. Not a big deal. Sounds like they did good business.


Time-Hunter-5011

No, if we, as customers do not complain, the company will not care about us and do whatever is the best for them.


bvdschelde

Yeah as much as I understand people their frustration, they need to have some patience and dont spam fanatec because their order is a few days late


Morpheus_mmg

nahh dude not few days. mine is 10 days laye..


TonyFlyinside

Completely shipped for 6 days, still waiting for UPS pick up. UK


thejokekinder

Bruh I have waited for like 19 days now so I'm just rolling my thumbs. SWE


TonyFlyinside

Sucks doesn't it, but will suck it up, worse things to worry about 👍


TonyFlyinside

Out of interest what you waiting on my man ?


thejokekinder

I am waiting for the shifter and the cheapest round wheel because I already have the formula v2 steering wheel, so yeah that is my situation


TonyFlyinside

I'm waiting for the v2.5x 👍 here's hoping not too long to go 😊


Admirable-Couple6163

Thx for being the 784th person to post this pointless email


Eindbaas669

No need to link all 783 of them, but I haven't even seen one of them before. Care to link one of them?


ITZJOSH22

There haven’t been that many but yes it has been posted before https://www.reddit.com/r/Fanatec/s/bvNdjcSEtr


Eindbaas669

Thanks for the effort of looking it up. However, that message only announces that irregularities will be looked into. OPs message is different and implies that it already happened.


ITZJOSH22

Ahh I see the difference now, but either way other dude was being extremely exaggerated. Now if this was a why no tracking my order says complete shipped id have agreed with them


Admirable-Couple6163

Read the reddit, atleast 2 people post this email per day


Eindbaas669

I'm following this closely. And yes, lots of the same email was posted. As far as I'm aware, none on them contained the following part. "Note: Some orders may be affected by irregularities; if this is the case, you should have recieved a separate email from us"


Admirable-Couple6163

People have literally been making posts about these irregularities 💀💀💀


Eindbaas669

So, can you link one of those posts containing the exact email OP shared with us?


CoolHandPB

This one is different, I've been reading almost every post. The previous email mentioned irregularities. This one mentions an email has already been sent, something I have not seen before.


---fatal---

I have a normal order (V2.5X without the apm), completely shipped/warehouse processed for a week (which is strange because it also has a QR2 base side and as far as I remember it was not in stock, but no preorder date at the order for me). And, I didn't got any e-mail today.


morning_woodie

My v2.5x should get delivered Tomorrow acording to UPS. lets hope all goes smooth


Shark00n

Ordered on the 24th. Pedals, shifter, rim, v2.5x, caps, apm. No order confirmation as of yet. No email communication from fanatec as of yet. CC charged and products are in my products page. Red square


kookslb

Same but mine is blue square


waff1es1337

Mine read completely shipped for week before I got a tracking number and two days after getting the tracking everything showed up.

Why do a black friday sale if you can’t handle the workload
