It sounds like that $164.99 upgrade pricing that was offered yesterday online to T-mobile customers might have been a mistake.
I was able to order the phone, and it shows that it's still processing in the order status.
Who else took advantage of the deal, and if so, has your order cleared?
I'm curious to see if T-mobile will honor this pricing if it really was a mistake.
Yep
I got mine for $164.99 and it says pending shipping, ETA Jul. 22nd (UPS Ground). The $75 downpayment is pending in my bank account.
If they try to renege on it, I'm done. As soon as my contract is up in 4 months, I'll be gone.
Yeah, I see the payment pending in my bank account as well. It does seem odd, since I technically wasn't eligible for fully discounted upgrade pricing for another few weeks.
I've been with T-mobile for 7 years with no issues so I'm on the fence about leaving if they don't honor the pricing. I'm sure they would offer the discounted rate of $199 - which is still very reasonable - if that $164 really is a mistake.
You can get the same phone on other carriers, but in the end you will pay the same $199 (or more with activation fees with a new provider).

Mine shipped. I already have tracking number. I can't see how they can charge more than confirmed. I have a printed order page. Actually, I went through Bing so I intend to insist on an additional 35% Bing cash back.
walmart has it for $99. including car adaptor.
Mine has shipped as well... I did the pay $64 up front and then add $33 to my bill for 3 months... They better not try to charge me more... thats actually why I bought it.. I didn't think i was eligable for an upgrade, but I decided to check anyways to see if Im able to get it for $199, then when I saw $164 I instantly purchased... maybe that was their plan!
went to a tmobile store and told them about the costco ad, they pricematched it for 99.99, no rebates, came out to 106 with tax
Rather upset, I didnt order online for the 164, I went into the store and it was 269. I'm only 2 months from the 199 upgrade price. They did the same **** when I bought the G1, overpriced me in the store.
I'm looking at filing some complaints against them with the BB and DA for price switching.
I have the print out of 169 to give to the Seattle DA for price switching.

You understand that you can still return the phone for a full refund. Right?
IW, I'm not supposed to call out people on these forums.. but re-read everything you are saying and use logic.
I dont see how this is any different if I go online and see 39.99 for an oil change, I go in and they charge me 59.99 because their computer says its 59.99. Thats wrong, and some states illegal.
No, its completely different. Maybe if you actually ordered online, you could draw that comparison. But the fact that they didn't give you full upgrade pricing when you aren't even eligible isn't dishonest at all.
The 165 pricing is still on their site? If it was a mistake I assume they would of fixed by now.

It's still there,164.99 .i just ordered another one for my wife.
Also, were only halfway through our 2 year contract.I don't get it,but hey thanks tmo!
Putting fairness and legality aside, it's pretty amazing how the story changes from customer to customer, as well as CSR to CSR. Whether or not it's right, it certainly has a car dealership feel to it.
I did, though, just get a text message saying my order will ship within the next seven days, so I guess I'm safe.
where do you people get this ? it was 199 yesterday and its 199 now.....
Funny thing is that for my family plan and another friend of mine it was $ 499 on the site. My friend hasn't upgraded in 4 years.

same on my 2nd tmo account, just checked.......$199 on one and $499 on another........dont see anywhere 164
Well I just recieved a text message with a tracking number and checking the tracking number USP says they've had it since 8:30 last night and will Already moved it to Nashville and will deliever it on Monday...
So I can't see in any way how T-Mobile would change the price on me now...
I got mine from tmobiles website for $164.99 as well and I'm only at 18 months out of 24. I went to a local store to play with the phone and told the sales person about the online price. She told me to go home and order it online since the best she could do for me in the store was $289. I got a text this morning with a tracking number.
I had read a rumor somewhere that the additional $35 discount was for original G1 owners. I have no idea if there is any truth to that, but my wife has a G1 and I had a G1 and have a MT3G and we both got the $164.99 upgrade price.

* Student Rate: 350 - 100 (sprint) MIR - 50 Student rate - 25 rebate = $175 winner so far.
* Sprint Rate : 350 + 100 MIR = $250
Also says Car Charger or Invisible Shield from StudentRate if your making a new line..or just a car charger if your using an old line.
Any discount associated with a purchase made off of contract?
My Fiance is a full-time student and I registered her for this. I'm wondering though,.. would I be better of long-term getting our plan via Everything Plus (Employee referral) or get her's via this approach. I'm assuming the discounts do not stack

I'm not sure how you are supposed to get this deal.
It states you have to purchase the phone through the StudentRate store, but the Epic 4G is not listed for sale/pre-order. Then, the code says it expires on the 31st, so how can you even use the deal if the phone isn't available for sale yet?
Im waking up early on the 31st to see if this will work on launch day
that 23% off will offset the 10 dollars a month fee

Bump bump bump bump, answer?
I'm also trying to find out if this deal is legit. If I catch any clues I'll be sure to post what I find.
EDIT: So been checking through Google Search with a few terms and not much comes up, there is a blog post for college students about how great and beneficial the site is with a few informal testimonies, and some people post about it on Facebook. Seems to be very much in the shadows, not many people know about it, yet at least.
if you click the discount links, it takes you to the sprint site . if you select a phone and go to the plan pricing step, all of the prices reflect the appropriate discount. I went through the checkout prices and right before you pay, the discounts were all applied. IMO it seems to be real.
anybody did pre order on this site yet?
yea I preordered from them. Had to mail in a form with all of my account info to give to sprint to upgrade the account. It said overnight shipping so I'll probably get billed on the 31st and get the phone on the 1st
Unfortunately it seems this deal isnt for everyone. Upon clicking the link for the discount, all it lists is a 15% discount, and browsing the phone selection doesnt bring up the epic at all.

It clearly states that the 15% is for students and 23% for Rhode Island students.
The Epic isnt out yet, so of course it doesnt show up on the Sprint website. You can, however, fill out the pre-order form attached and email it to [email protected] to preorder with the appropriate discount.

Buy the phone from this site with the simply everything plan ($99.99). Once you have the phone go to sprint.com and chat with a support rep. Complain how the phone was activated under the wrong plan and just tell thing you want the Simply Everything Plus 500.
Worked for me back when I got my Pre *
*Except my phone actually was processed under the wrong plan (some 139.99 family plan)

I don't specifically know how rjohnstone got it for $149.99, but AT&T gave me an additional $50 off because it had been more than 2 years since I upgraded.
So I preordered mine for $149.99, and received it yesterday.
got mine for free period.

Been a Premier customer for the better part of 10 years. I spend a lot of money with them, so I typically get an extra $50 off any device I purchase.
One of the many reasons I will not leave AT&T.

Best buy because they goofed up in my account in Xmas. AT&T will price match the $129.99 from Walmart but I did not want to do it because their restocking fee is $35 ...

If I'm not eligible for an upgrade - any way I can score one of these deals? Or - even better - without extending my contract?
Amazon Wireless is now down to $129.99 but they are backordered. I have a feeling they lowered the price in order to still maintain the pace of orders until stock comes back in. Kind of sucks because I wanted to try it in Tucson next week but oh well, I'll have it when I get back.
Paid $43 for mine
Was the only guy at Radio Shack this morning (Only Dork sez the wife). When they opened another guy walked in right behind me. Turns out they only had 1 and I got it for 149, and then they offered me $106 for my iPhone 3G, which I took, so in the end $43 bucks for a phone that beats the pants off my old 3G for performance...
I admit I don't know if $106 for a so-so condition 3G is good or not, but if I consider I don't have to try and sell it, etc... and it would have sat in my drawer where it would be forgotten. All in all a good deal to me,
just got mine for $99, confusing the sales rep
He ran the phone number, premier came up and it said the price was $100 for the phone or $400 for the dock and phone and I took the phone for $100 because I hadn't yet seen the tethering/hotspot fix info that came out earlier today.
The store said that the dock required the tethering deal which requiring giving up the unlimited data. My understanding is that is half correct: you don't need the tethering plan to have the dock but you need hotspot on the phone to make it work. I further understand that it is true that the tethering plan is not avaialble at any price with unlimited;
Has anyone found it yet at Costco who generally sweetens the deals very well with chargers and cases, and often discounts.

I can only chock it up as a premier flaw. Got two for $168 shipped, no contract extension. I still have yet to be charged for them, and somehow they removed my car dock on the order, so I think they really messed my order up. Anyhow, I'm way happy with this phone. This is how android is meant to be.
ATT Moto Atrix (2G ) is now $99 at Amazon Wireless. [now $49.99 at Amazon Wireless]
Edit : [now $99.99 on Costco as well for new customer. Free activation, shipping & accessories]
So my question is Can i trust it to work perfectly out of the box ? and go buy online. I see from this forum that there is lot that can go wrong with it.
(I dont wanna go through the online return hassle in case there is a defective or problematic set. Its much easier to exchange it at the store).
I bought my atrix from AmazonWireless. They're great support-wise and price-wise.
Have you experienced any of the problems like lagging unlock screen, bad mic or voice quality, or poor touchscreen response or any other defects its known for ?
One of the units i tried at store had poor touchscreen response esp. while typing messages while the one my friend has works fine
Can't say I've experienced any of those oddities with mine. And while it is a bigger hassle to ship a defective unit back, Amazon will cover postage in both directions if something's wrong with the device.

I bought it through Amazon wireless. I requested an exchange because I found the battery life to be a bit short, no questions asked overnight shipping. FedEx messed up a bit though and by the time i got the new phone the battery life had improved on the old one

I can confirm the refund. I just got $20 back as the price dropped from $149 to $129 for an upgrade on a family plan. He didn't say what the time window was (although it was a concern of his), but he did say I would be ineligible for any future refunds due to another price drop.

Thanks for the replies guys. Its good to see Amazon standing behind the product. If only ATT was little less anoying .They are just losing business by pulling out letstalk and wirefly. Hell i could have gotten free activation as well (i am greedy )
I emailed them and got $20 back Thanks!
So if I upgrade through Amazon Wireless my plan just carries over exactly as-is? I just don't want to order a phone online and then have my data package change from the $30 unlimited iPhone one.
Costco has it for 119, free activation.
Not sure how Amazon handles the plan differences, but make sure you don't loose the unlimited.

How did Costco handle that?
The best prices for the Atrix are online, but I'm skeptical of losing my unlimited data plan if I upgrade through them. If anyone can confirm that Costco allows you to keep your current data plan without "upgrading" to the DataPro 2gb package, I'll be ordering it today.

It will change, but AT&T will change it back if you call them after you activate the phone. If you've *ever* had unlimited in the past, they will honor that commitment.

I think this is the case. I had spoken with an AT&T rep yesterday because I would much rather get the Atrix from Amazon Wireless ($99 vs $199 from AT&T). He assured me that I would be able to keep my current $30 unlimited data plan. I also made sure to ask him specifically about transferring to a non-iPhone handset purchased from Amazon, after a minute on hold he came back and told me again I would keep the plan.
I had him notate my account just to be sure though....
-Doogs™
Now Costco is also selling it for $99.99 for new customer .
not sure about data plans but should be able to keep unlimited. Might as well call or chat before ordering to make sure.
It's worth noting that I just stopped into my local Walmart Supercenter a couple hours ago, ran by the cell phones, and they've dropped their price on the Atrix to $118. Not sure if that's a nationwide change or just my store, but it's worth looking into.
I also talked to the rep about keeping my unlimited plan, and he said it wouldn't be a problem, which clears up any skepticism I had about that if I bought the phone anywhere other than an AT&T retail store. I'm stoked. I'll be going back very soon to pick it up.
An att rep told me that they were planning on dropping amazon soon. Sounds quite plausible.

Wow can't believe Amazon dropped the price again for atrix in a week ..... Its now $49.99 at Amazon Wireless . Too bad for the folks who got $30 refund this week .. I guess its just the buyers remorse with every smartphone these days.

Best Buy. Long story but they really wanted me to buy a tablet there. Employees came from all around with discounts for me at check out. There was an actual line of employees with printed skews in their hands, each one adding a new discount. I was still in disbelief when I got home. Like I said, Just for fun I might stop by and have a go. I'm sure they need some kind of entertainment around there.
Oh yeah, the funny part was when the all got through with their discounts another guy walked up typed something in, while another dropped his jaw and said, "Did you just give him a $100 off without a managers aproval, how did you do that?" He just smiled and walked away. Everyone gets luck once in a while.
Will bb reimburse 100 to price match if you already purchased and are within 14 day return period?

Thank you so much for this post, I just got back from Staples with a 16gb Tab. The tech guy in the store said they got 3 of them in yesterday and 1 person bought one late last night and the 2nd one was purchased 5 minutes before me and I got the last one. While he and I were talking 2 more people walked up asking for them and were told they were sold out. He said each store only got 2 or 3 of them.
They did have the Xoom, Playbook and Iconia in stock. The Iconia was quite tempting for $299!!! I also wouldn't have minded getting a Xoom for $399 to goof off with. This new Tab is for my son as I already have one myself. I wish they had the 32gb versions in the store but they said that model is only available online. Staples is also running a special for 15% off any tablet accessories when purchasing a tablet but they no Tab accessories in stock yet. The guy said they haven't received their end cap for the Tab which usually comes with the accessories shipment. He said he would honor the 15% offer once they receive their accessories so I'm going to check back periodically. Checking stock on their website shows other stores in the area have Tabs as well but the guy said it can take up to 24 hours for the online stock checker to update so with the rush of buyers looking for them with the coupon deal I suspect they'll all be gone very quickly. FYI, they are selling the metallic gray version (not the white). The website doesn't give any indication of color...

So how much did you exactly pay for the 16gb SGT??
Depending on your tax, I got mine for $430 after tax and coupon.
Too bad they don't stock the 32GB in any of their stores...
I wonder if they will honor this coupon over the phone to order a 32GB?? Guess I'll be trying here shortly
they do honor in store...

Tried a few Staples in DC metro area. Some don't have any. One store that do have in stock can't make the coupon work. Finally found one store that the manager knows about the coupon and offered to order one for me from Kiosk and pay at the register to use the coupon w/o any problem. I'll pick the tab up this Firday. $420 with tax.
Well, I was on a fence because of luck of Netflix. But now Netflix is sorted out and I've got 16Gb for 400 bucks plus tax from staples.
Got mine from staples 424.99 16gb when to four stores and the last store had 3 left also most stores don't have them on display
I picked up my Galaxy 10.1 at Staples today. I noticed that they didn't have any on display, but there were Xooms, Acers, Blackberries, etc. When I asked them why, they said that yesterday somebody tried to walk off with the display model, so they took it off display. Seems to me that he could have tried to walk off with any of them, so why remove just one?
Anyway, another guy said they had gotten their shipment in on Sunday (3 days ago), and I was the first to buy one. He said the store is getting many returns on tablets, because people buy them thinking they are laptops -- minus the keyboards. I assured him that I was familiar with the android system, owning a rooted Nook.
I am happy with the Samsung so far, but Honeycomb is a little bigger learning curve over Android 2.3. But my buddy at work has a Xoom, so I'll be picking his brain over the next couple of weeks.

Well, I was on a fence because of luck of Netflix. But now Netflix is sorted out and I've got 16Gb for 400 bucks plus tax from staples.

What do you mean, "Netflix is sorted out?" Can Netflix be played on my Samsung? (Forgive me, I'm a Honeycomb newbie).
