FAQs
How long does Dell take to deliver?
Your Dell order delivery date varies depending on what you're ordering. Some products are available as free next-day delivery, so if you order before 5pm you'll have the item delivered within the next working day. Custom-built PCs or laptops with certain hardware changes take longer as you need to wait for the item to be built. In all cases, you can view an estimated shipping date and an estimated delivery date. The former tells you when the item will be shipped from Dell while the latter tells you when to expect your order.
Which courier does Dell use in UK?
Dell uses three different couriers: Syncreon, UPS, and DHL to deliver your items. In all cases, there's free delivery on whatever you order from Dell with no minimum purchase required. In some cases, items can be delivered separately such as if you've ordered third-party products alongside a new Dell desktop or laptop.
Does Dell have a discount scheme?
Dell offers an extensive discount scheme for students, NHS staff members, educational workers and military personnel.
The Dell Advantage for Students program, specifically, gives you discounts that change throughout the year. During back to school season, for instance, it includes 15% off XPS laptops and 15% off certain monitors. You'll need to use your academic email address to receive the Dell coupon code.
Is Dell Refurbished owned by Dell?
Yes. Dell Refurbished is a subsidiary of Dell itself. You can trust any of the items for sale as they've gone through Dell's refurbishment process to ensure they're in an "as new" condition. Dell assigns a cosmetic grade to its all products so you know whether the system has minor scratches or anything more significant.
How do I contact Dell?
There are a variety of ways to contact Dell. The quickest way is to use its online chat facility via the Contact Us page. It's also possible to request a callback through the same form. If you prefer to call them yourself, the phone number differs depending on if you want technical support or sales support. For technical support, you can message 07741 765 144 on WhatsApp 24/7. Alternatively, you can phone 0800 028 2660 between 7am and 6pm Monday to Friday for basic hardware support. To contact sales support, call 0800 587 1456.
Hints and Tips
Check the Dell deals section: If it's a day ending in "y", Dell almost certainly has a wide selection of deals available. These cover everything it sells from laptops to desktop PCs and monitors. In many cases, you can order something and receive it the next business day so it's a good way of quickly snapping up a bargain. Often, you can still configure the laptop to match your needs if you want to make some adjustments.
See if you're eligible for a discount: Students, educational staff, NHS workers and military employees are all automatically eligible for discounts providing they can prove their relevant affiliation. However, many companies also offer a customer employee discount as part of a wider scheme so it's worth checking to see if your employer is one of those companies.
Buy Dell refurbished products: Dell has an extensive refurbished store with plenty of discounts on its entire product range. These devices are often returns so they're almost as good as new. They've been checked over by Dell and in some cases, you may see a cosmetic grade next to them to explain what condition they're in. Stock can change on a daily basis so do your research and be ready to buy quickly if you find the right device for your needs.
Sign up for Dell rewards: Signing up for Dell rewards is free but offers you a way to earn and then redeem points towards other purchases. You can also earn points by logging in regularly, playing games, or even just filling out your online profile. Once you've accrued enough points, you can convert them to cash on purchases over £100. There are member-only offers along with other exclusive extras so there's absolutely nothing to lose by signing up. If you plan on buying frequently from Dell, you should profit the most.
Use the Dell price match policy: Dell has a price match policy on all of its goods. If you see a Dell product cheaper at another retailer, you can call 0800 0845 4961 to price match it. That can be useful in conjunction with offers like the Dell rewards program or if you simply prefer to buy direct from Dell. The company also guarantees the lowest price if the price drops in the month after you've purchased it so it's worth keeping an eye on.
