How to get V20 in the UK?

[venom0706]

As I live in the UK, V20 isn't available here. I was wondering, can you recommend me any websites that I can buy the phone from? Also, what happens if something breaks (or needs replacement) and there is no support here in the UK? How do I deal with it?

Thank you and appreciated.

I just got an email from Clove (I'd signed up to be notified when they get the V20 in stock) to say they won't be selling it due to not being able to source a compatible device for the market. If they won't be then it's not looking good as they're usually a good bet for rarer devices.

Thank you for registering your interest in the LG V20.

We are contacting you today to let you know that despite our best efforts we will not be selling the LG V20.

Soon after launch, LG confirmed it would not be coming to the UK. We have since been working to source a UK compatible device that can be backed up with warranty support over the life of the handset.

Our intentions were to import the V20 from Europe, like we did with the V10 where supply and support networks existed.

Whilst interest and demand has been high, particularly since the Samsung Note 7 recall; LG have confirmed that they are not launching the V20 in Europe and are not planning to reconsider this in light of the recent surge in demand.

Although the V20 has been launched in other regions of the world and whilst we can potentially source from these areas, we are not prepared to do so at the risk of supply, network compatibility and after sales support.

As smartphone users ourselves we see the appeal of the V20 and have clearly stated just how many customers have expressed interest in the handset (it is one of our most requested, ever). Having presented this information to LG in addition to a commitment to a volume of handsets, LG remain firm that they wish not at this time to launch the V20 in Europe.

As such you may wish to consider your options.

The Clove Technology Sales Team.

I got the Clove email as well, so after some digging, you can get it here, full warranty included.
