Seems rather strange. Is this Britain bashing after Brexit?
I’m Dutch, but live in the UK, so it’s slightly awkward to have to ask relatives to send stuff on. Why can’t I select UK for shipping destination?
I looked for England, Great Britain, United Kingdom, but none are there.
It’s not intentional, there are some hints how to work around this glitch here …
Possibly related to the brexit insanity* (sigh) but i’m finding myself unable to buy a phone for my brother…
I have a FP3 myself, his old phone has been a nightmare and has seen how much i like my phone so wants one too…
Problem is ordering one…
[fp1]
looks good so far
[fp2]
No UK (or component country) available.
Is this a website glitch or do i need to find a friendly EU person to reship one?
*note, was always 100% against this for reasons like this…

@Michiel What problem do you have ?
See topics
Yes the little flag menu will help It has the Dutch flag with EN whereas you want the UK flag with EN
The url ends . . .com/gb_en/ ~ use the link below.
FYI I bought the FP3+ in October last it took a week to arrive ~ I’m in Cornwall. My daughter V bought one in December that took two weeks to arrive ~ she’s in London
The FP3+ has not just camera upgrades but audio upgrades.
All the best
I was trying to buy a fair phone, from the official website, but when I came to fill in my address there was no option to select UK? When I checked on the website it listed the UK as a country they ship to, but it didn’t come up as an option when entering address details. Help please, how do I order from the UK?

Yes, it’s exactly that. The UK is not listed in the dropdown of countries that the shop will ship to.
I hope they will fix that soon, as they gave me a voucher, which will expire in a little while
In every topic linked to in the posts above users were eventually able to order to the UK. So if you have time constraints, perhaps just try the workarounds.
Ah, thanks. You’re right. When I change language to British, the shipping destination has only the UK in the dropdown. That’s a very peculiar way of managing the shop. What does the Interface language have to do with the shipping destination, that should be unrelated.
Ah, well, the mysteries of the internet.

The interface language gives people in EU+ countries the option of using various languages. Ideally you should be able to use Dutch in the UK shop and pay in Euros or Sterling
More the ineptness of programmers or the lack of foresight rather than a mystery of the Universe
