Title is misleading...
The way it looks is, you cannot change the date to a later day in the month than the day that you make the change, for example if today is June 17th and you change it to July the 17th or later, the order will get cancelled, July 16th or earlier it should be OK

This applies to accounts that have the new S&S interface, where you have to go to the Settings tab to change your delivery date

Right, but I am losing tens of dollars in discounts now, is there a way to change the date from the order list?

I don't know, just pointed that out to explain why some people experience this and some don't. They seem to be rolling out the new interface slowly. This is probably why @Dan hasn't mentioned it yet...

Not good. I usually never have 5 things in a month and I push it off till I have five items.
I'm not who you think I am.

I get a few things like cereal, macaroni, hand soap, kind bars, ziplocs... from S&S so I can usually put together enough items, but it's annoying.

There is no more option to change the date on the Deliveries tab like there used to be

Can take a few minutes, it should say in the deliveries tab "cancelling order" on the original date

I'm not seeing that, did you change it past the next 2 months? I don't even have that option right now on the settings page when you select the date you want it to arrive on..

It probably depends how far out you change to.

I have a feeling that the reason it cancelled by me is because I pushed it off to after the date of the last cancel date, example today's last cancel date is june 24th, I pushed it to July 25 which created a new month it cancelled the June order and created a new July order, didn't use to happen before, I guess lesson learned

I just did some tests. Order placed today automatically has today the 16th as last day to change, arriving 24th.

If I change the arrival date to anytime before July 17th the order "updates".

If I change the arrival date to the 17th or later the order is cancelled and reordered.

Interesting, so it seems you can make your items come sooner but not delay them

Just don't do it past the allotted time frame. And each month you can keep pushing it off 3 or so weeks at a time...

Does that make sense to work?

Do you mean July 16th is last day to change, or June 16th?

I'm not sure if it will work. It could be that they only allow you to push off 30 days from your 1st original order date. More testing is required...

I remember in the past trying to move my date by 2 weeks and everything was cancelled.
