[b]Me:[/b] My order was supposed to be release day delivery and now it is saying September 11. What happened?
[b]Melanie:[/b] Hello, my name is Melanie. I'll certainly try to help regarding your concern.
May I have please your order number so I can check this for you?
[b]Me:[/b] XXX-XXXXXXX-XXXXXXX
[b]Melanie:[/b] Thanks let me check please :)
Allow me just a moment please
[b]Me:[/b] Sure.
[b]Melanie:[/b] Thanks for holding, I'm really sorry to hear that your order won't be delivered on the release date, I was checking on the website and this is the sooner that we can deliver it. I'll also submit a request so our specialists can ship it as soon as possible. Also I'd like to issue a $5 credit to your account for this delay.
[b]Me:[/b] That's very disappointing. But thank you.
Am I assured to receive the item on the 11th? This is an extremely high demand item and I'm just afraid there won't be enough.
Especially since my ship date is now later
[b]Melanie:[/b] No worries, due to the high demand the delivery date was rescheduled but I can assure you that your order is scheduled to be delivered on Thursday.
[b]Me:[/b] ok, thanks.
[b]Melanie:[/b] You're welcome. The $5 credit has been issued to your account.
[b]Me:[/b] thanks again.
[b]Melanie:[/b] You're welcome. Before we end the chat I want to make sure your issue has been resolved to your satisfaction.

[b]Me:[/b] I pre-ordered this a month ago and was looking forward to release date delivery (tomorrow). However, today it was changed to Thursday. Please help.

[b]Me:[/b] Order # XXX-XXXXXXX-XXXXXXX
Amazon: oh yes it has been happening today I am sorry there is a little delay due to all the delivery that is going to the same place I am sorry ! it will be there on Thursday , I see
[b]Me:[/b] Yes. Can it be bumped up to 1-day shipping?
It was scheduled for release day arrival yesterday.
[b]Amazon:[/b] ok let me try to change the delivery date to see if at least to can get it tomorrow , just a moment
well Prymal I have changed the shipping to one day shipping and it still gives me the same delivery date . in this case I think at least it will be quicker to deliver than the others because it is a fast shipping and I have also issued a promotional certificate for $5 due to the inconvenience please verify the email I have sent you
[b]Me:[/b] yes, i have received the emails. thank you.
[b]Amazon:[/b] I hope this solves your issue! Would there be anything else you'd like me to do on my end to help you out today?
[b]Me:[/b] that should take care of it. thanks again.

I had a very similar experience this morning albeit with a different result. In the end I was very lucky to reach someone willing to upgrade me to one day shipping free of charge. Here's the convo: Initial Question: Hi, I preordered this item in June but with a card that has since been replaced. I updated the card 2 months ago in my Amazon account but didn't know until this morning that the order didn't automatically update. The order is now going through but my problem is that the expected delivery date is not until Thursday. Is there any way to get it here tomorrow as originally planned? I have been looking forward to playing this game at launch since preordering it. [b]Megan(Amazon):[/b] Hello, my name is Megan. I'll certainly try to help regarding your concern. [b]Me: [/b]Ok [b]Megan(Amazon):[/b] Thank you for your patience. I have upgraded the shipping method on the order to one day shipping. The item is now scheduled to be delivered to you tomorrow. [b]Me: [/b]Awesome! [b]Megan(Amazon):[/b] Is there anything else I can help you with today? [b]Me:[/b] That was all. I now know in the future to update the order after reading about this. [b]Megan(Amazon):[/b] Thank you for chatting with me on Amazon.com. We look forward to seeing you again soon. When you're ready, please click the end chat link. Enjoy your day! [b]Me:[/b] Thanks!
