First of all sorry if this is the wrong section but the Q&A looked more like Note related question rather than ordering assistance.
I am trying to order from Amazon.de and have it shipped to the UK, tried and almost succeeded when i ordered it, a case and a host USB lead. It said it had shipped (all of it) last week but soon after i received an email saying that the Note could not be shipped do to weight problems?
So now i have been screwed on the shipping for the extras and they wont send me the phone, have tried several times but when i get to confirming the order it says the same thing about electronic goods.
My question is for anyone in or around the UK that has received a note from Amazon.de how on earth did you do it lol i have tried emailing and phoning them since i have a German speaker in the house who can help out but nothing back yet in over 5 days
I ordered my Note from Amazon.de a few weeks ago but didnt order extras to avoid any complication. I ordered those from elsewhere and in the uk. My Note arrived in a few days with no difficulties at all.
Try doing the same.

Sadly i have tried that just the note on its own gets the the confirmation section before saying it cannot be shipped to my chosen address (mainland UK) funny thing is i have already had several items from amazon.de throughout the year including some very expensive items and very inexpensive items.
Really want the Note but i refuse to pay the prices some users think are fair in the UK especially for used models, i mean £500 for a USED item when i can get it for £350 :s
Yes the UK prices are a rip off as are the contract prices which is why i went to amazon.de. I must have been lucky as that was my first ever purchase from there.
I successfully placed an order for a white Note via Amazon.de on Tuesday last week and received it without any issues on Friday ...
That's not very helpful to you I know, but just wanted to let you know that even until very recently, orders have been going through fine with them with shipping to the UK ...
For info, I ordered without accessories ...
Hope you get it sorted cos the cost saving is fab
I wonder if they've got wind of people ordering it to save a fortune and put an end to it. I got mine from Amazon.de at the beginning of January for just 410 Euros. It arrived at my house the following day and bizarrely enough even though it came with a Euro mains plug it was shipped via City Link and came from Milton Keynes.
Sorry that doesn't help you.
I'm not sure why anyone is now ordering through German amazon as the price is now €564 around £475 but UK price is now £519 so for £45 more you get UK delivery and UK warranty. . I was gonna order from Germany but due to sgreen problems chose UK and I'm glad I did cos first note had a really bad screen and amazon replaced it and paid for return postage

And worst UK prices have increased. Handtech was selling for £480 when I ordered from Amazon.de.

Right i went away and tried a few different addresses just in case it was the layout of the address that was messing with the system. Tried 5 different addresses from around the country (friends) and two business addresses (my current and previous) with no luck but i am now thinking it has something to do with what Lakota suggested? as i ordered about £3000 in goods from them before Christmas?
And with a discount i get normally it would mean i would get the Note from from them for around about £350 DELIVERED that's the only reason i am trying to push for this.
Would anybody mind logging into amazon.de and trying to purchase a note for a test? i get as far as choosing an address when it fails so nowhere near checkout? it would make things clear or at least solve an issue because if someone from the UK can still do it, it has to be a problem with the storage of my addresses thats causing the problem.
Just tried the order process again ... I get all the way through to the payment page ... Address went through fine
I order one January 15th, shipped 17th, arrived 19th.
No extras.
Price paid: e546.68 = £441.98 (by my calculation).
Judicous use of Google Translate helped.
Lovely machine. Glad to join this forum.

Looks like Amazon have run out of Notes!
The only links now are to used Notes - 481yoyos! I paid on 450 for a new one.
did you all order new ones? because for used products, the seller can restrict the shipment to Germany.

Yup mine is a brand new white Note ... Amazon.de are showing as having 11 in stock at the moment ...
mine was ordered on the 7th and came on the 9th. you can email custmer service or call them with number given on same webpage. i had to call them a couple of times for replacement. ist ***** hung up on me cause i couldnt speak german. next chap was nice and helpful but phone was out of stock so advised only refund after i sent phon ebcak. but phone worked fine after software update so didnt send it back. having some issues with sd card though, dont know if it is the card as phone works fine without card.
since i had enquired in my email if available for delivery to uk a week or so ago and to let me knw when in stock as i wanted to buy one more note. they emailed me last week saying 1-2 week lead time for delivery to uk so they did get more stock unless they ran out of it again. and yes it was for the black/blue note and not the costlier white one.
call them to sort out your probs. 2 people i spoke to at amazon.de customer service spoke ok english and were helpful but one ***** hung up on me cause i didnt speak german.
wtf yesterday was showing as 503euros now today showing 70euros more!

Amazon have no stock at the moment, Amazon Sellers on the other hand do.

i didnt call her a ***** because she couldnt speak english. it was because she didnt pass me on to their english speaking colleagues who deal with international customers bearing in mind i called their separate number for international customers (excluding german, swiss or austrians who have a separate free call back number from amazon.de) at my cost on a number they provide for international customers like me.
if you take the time to amazon.de customer services contact us page, and use the option for phone contact, they will call you for free if you are in germany, switzerland or austria. but for other countries they give another number international customers can call. You are the twunt if you expect a company that gives a separate number for international customers to call from outside germany / austria / switzerland but still speak only german. jerk.
for your information they do have customer service operators that speak english and i spoke to two of them who were good. they also have reps who write back to you in engish and they wrote back to me in english. and they wrote back to me in english by email informing me of new stock as i wanted to buy another note.
twunt yes but thats you sir and not me!
why because they allow me to use my uk account name and passowrd to buy from that website with delivery to the Uk and EU wide warranty and they do have reps thats speak and write english, all that ***** had to do was forward me to one instead of hanging up. That goes against their own customer service moto to provide the best customer service of any company.
rant over.
Right I finally got an email back claiming to not know why I can't order a new note (while in stock) and when I asked why I couldn't order from their warehouse they said they do not ship from warehouses to the uk? I would have though most products make that leap?
Anyway with the prices becoming stupid I guess I will just pass in the note for now since it was going to be replacing my half dead optimistic 2x but it looks like I will be holding on a while longer lol
Thanks for the help and suggestions guys/gals, I will be a note owner some day and.....I'LL BE BACK!!!

Hi,
Ordered a Vario 2 from a T-mobile store about 4 weeks ago - still out of stock. Tried to order on-line, order was processed successfully but then had a follow up call saying its out of stock.
I really need to get off my current tariff so hope they sort something soon!
Is anyone else in this position/has anyone else managed to obtain a phone in the last month? Any T-Mobile insiders have an idea when your getting some?
Thanks,
Paul
Yeah i have ordered one on monday. Still no news os still waiting. Let us know whey u receive one.
just to upset u all. i ordered mine online on last tuesday, and got it the next day been playing with it ever since.
Hi there, if it's t-mobile UK you are referring to I ordered mine 12 days ago online and received it the next day. I was told on two occassions when I called them that they were out of stock, but one day I rang they had 500 odd in stock. That is when I rushed my order through online.
This would mean I had mine when your order was waiting. I'd ring them and play hell if I were you.
Thanks for the tip off g00nerz. I guess there possibly working through a back log of orders, that said, I am not impressed at having to wait a month when other people have got one very quickly - I'm going to give them hell tomorrow!
Many Thanks.
I ordered my vario ii through t-mobile direct from my holiday in spain on monday 8th october and it arrived at my home in the uk the next day.....
these are rushing out of stock so fast, so it you can grab one, get it fast...
This has really annoyed me - thinking of choosing a different carrier - its ridiculous to wait 4 weeks for a phone - the store hasnt even given me a courtesy call. I know they're in short supply but I've ordered two in the last month and neither has been sent!
Thanks for letting me know the "state of play"
Hi All,
Rang Tmob this morning inquiring the status of my order and apprantly the update is that there are component shortages (did nto say what components) but the long and short of it it that the phone will now not be available until the end of the month !!!
So i guess we will still be waiting a while then !!
I spoke with T-Mobile yesterday as I was expecting a swap out unit today. It appears that the current batch they have in stock is being held back for quality checking. I had a problem with mine (another replacement received Monday) which indicated that the manufacturer (HTC) has not carried out the vendor specific setup properly (ie keeps asking for a network unlock code). I can only assume other stock units have got the same problem.

Wow. Went to order mine today only to find that T-Mobile have completely removed the Vario 2 from their website.
Looking bad...

I wouldnt worry about that, it disappears and re-appears all the time! When I went to sign up for a web and walk tarriff the other week the only phone it would offer me (and put in the basket!) was a v3 razr - in pink! Phoned customer services and they said that the website was in the process of an overhaul and hence it was in error.
Tell a lie, just checked my e-mail and its been dispatched -- hoorah! Should be here before 1 tomorrow apparently.
Maybe the MD of T-Mobile reads the Hermes message board?!

Since T-mobile introduced the new WebnWalk tariffs on Oct 1st 2006, the Vario2 has flown off the shelves becuase the handset doubles as a USB modem for laptops and the WNWPlus is a better package than anything Vodafone or Orange offer with their data cards. This is why I bought one to try out for my company, I know of another company that bought 31 for their sales staff in one hit and more of my customers are doing the same having been pleased with what I've told them already.
T Mobile takes the phone off the website when they sell out which accounts for its dissappearance. I must say though as a business customer the service is fantastic, everytime I have called CS I have got through in under 2 mins usually it takes a few rings once I have got through the menu system to the right department and am very pleased with it. I've got my TT6 installed with my GPS236Slim receiver, can take calls whilst its plugged in to my laptop as a modem and Remote Access (Terminal Server) is usuable even when not in a 3G cell so I'm in heaven and it works on the norfolk broads of all places!!!!!
Ah that's not so bad, then. Never having used T-M before I didn't expect that. I would have thought that just marking it as not currently in stock would be a better option that pulling it, but maybe that's just me.
I guess I just check the site to see when it reappears, then!
Awesome. I just had a call from T-mobile UK. The Vario 2 is now in stock and I can order one for delivery tomorrow.
I had to check on some things so called back, spoke to someone else, and suddenly they've not been in stock today and won't be available until next week.
Mr. left hand and Mr. right hand need to get talking, I think.
T-mobile told me that they'l have them in stock this week when rang them last week. I've just come off the phone from t-mobile and they've just told me they had no idea when they'l have them in stock and to try next week...... wtf cant they get their act together. I've never known anything like it... if only orange or vodafone matched the web n walk tariff then i'd be off like a shot!!! (i think its ony a matter of time) if anyone from T-Mobile is reading this "this get your act together".
Just rang T Mob again and this time not end of the month but "we have no clue when they will get them in." So my response well for the inconvience are you willing to throw in a free SD card or something else ? Oh No sir we are not allowed to do that. Ok then thanks for your call !!
WTF!! what do they mean no clue. Why accept orders when u know you can fulfill them ??
Anyway just an update for you folks! Dont except the vairo II anytime soon. (I hope i am wrong) !

Gentlemen,
I need your advice.
I purchased HTC Touch HD ,more than one, devices with some accessories from (www. . . . . .co.uk) website last Wed 17-Dec-2008 and it was shipped through a well known courier company. It was expected to be delivered on Dec20.
I followed up with the two parties.
Conclusion: the shipment is confirmed to be missed (lost) and can not be traced.
The sender company representative emailed me today that I should wait until all parties' offices open after Xmas leave and until that they can not assist me.
I live outside UK.
1-What should I do?
2-What compensation I'm entitled to claim?
Your advice please.
Thank you.

Hello,
I am looking to purchase the Touch HD asap. I found a UK seller called Electronics system (Dave Peter) but his price is very low at $330 shipped to Los Angeles. Just emailed him now, to see if he can take credit cards through a PayPal type service. Are there any places you would recommend to purchase from?
Thanks!

I've had very good experience with clove.co.uk.
The $330 price is suspiciously low - significantly lower than what I've paid for with 2 year contract
I bet it was those horrid people at DHL or BusinessPost.
Thanks DigiMagic, I now agree. But with all the pain issues, I've been reading about here, I think I may hold off on a purchase.
Any Advice gentelmen?

Hello !
So I decided to return to the Windows Phone/Mobile land after an hiatus of a few years (yes with the thing from Apple ). After some toughts I would like to buy the Samsung Focus. I'm with Rogers but I would prefer to get an unlocked device if possible.
I try with few hopes the shops (Rogers and Bbest Buy since they got some flyers with it) here in Montreal but it seems that the device will be available only at the end of month or early next one. Expansys got it (can't put links in my post) but even if I got prior good experiences with them my order is pushed back since two weeks ... Rogers.com seems to have it but when I phoned the customers service they said they don't have it even f they recognized that Rogers.com can.
I saw several threads here about Rogers etc. so it must have some fellow Canadians with advices/information ?
Thanks !
Matthieu
I ordered it from rogers.com and it shipped within days.
As far as I know, its ONLINE only until the end of the month.
Thanks ! I will order it on Rogers.com if i don't have a clear answer from Expansys Monday.
When Rogers opened their limited online launch, I placed an order on the second day.
It shipped Friday, and I received it the monday after (got it on the 15th).
You have to be carefull buying unlocked, because of the time issues on Rogers network (ie. texts come in with a timestamp of the past, or future, annoying as ****).
Yes I saw some messages about this problem, but why ? is it affecting only devices not from Rogers ?
sorry for hijacking the thread, i live in chile but i have a friend in canada who is coming back for the holydays.... is it possible for him to buy the phone for 599 without plan, and if so, will it work on my country?
(im not asking about the bands, from what ive read, i think its compatible. what id like to know, if its unlocked or if i have to unlock it myself)
thanks a lot!
Yes he can but before he must unlocked it. Serach for "samsung focus unlock" on ebay.ca. I saw members of this forums used it succesfully.
Yep, the best and only place to get it right now is from Rogers.com... I ordered mine the day it was released and received it on Friday of the same week. UPS and Rogers were great about shipping it out to me, didn't have any hassles that you can usually expect. Enjoy!

Oh, something else,.. the email address he is using was apparently made may 9th... BEWARE!
Hi
I saw this same listing and enquired. I received the exact same reply from Elise (no taxes etc) and I followed up with some questions because it all seemed too good to be true and I didn't think the 64GB was even available until after the 16GB had been out a while. She replied saying her business partner who is also her brother works for Samsung, hence the bulk buying they are able to do. When I asked about the closed listing (it ended during our E-mail correspondence) she said she had to close the listing because she was receiving too many requests. She did say it'd all go through eBay still, so that buyer and seller were both protected. I had to reply with details of what I wanted (pebble blue or marble white) plus my address INCLUDING MY EBAY USERNAME. She claimed this was to check my feedback but I think it's so they can generate a convincing spoof E-mail from eBay.
She said I'd receive an invoice from eBay soon and to let her know when I did.
Sounds very fishy! Her English is poor too.
I'll let you know what the eBay E-mail looks like.

Yes mate, I know how you feel. I got straight on to my credit card company this morning & told them to not pay out on this transaction, also contacted Paypal & they told me not to worry as even if the sale has gone through I can still get my money refunded from them. Just annoying, but I suppose its as they say, if the deal looks to good to be true it probably is. Still annoying though.
It's good to know PayPal will cover us in these situations. And it's also sickening to know there are so many ****s like this out there trying to rip people off.
Still no 'E-mail from eBay' to be seen though!
You're exactly right, I myself kept on thinking if it's too good to be true, it probably is, but when it revolves around a sweet piece of kit like the GSIII it's hard not to be intrigued!
And good work on the IP lookup Candanga!

Hi everyone! I'm not sure if it's the right place for this kind of thread but I would like to know what you think of this site: kmax-store (dot) com . So basically I want to buy a galaxy S4 and their price is amazing: 500$ for a 16 gb international version + 26$ shipping to Canada. The site doesn't offer a paypal payment method so I'm a little skeptical whether it's a legit site or not. Do you guys know someone who already ordered something from this site and received the item?

Hi everyone! I'm not sure if it's the right place for this kind of thread but I would like to know what you think of this site: kmax-store (dot) com . So basically I want to buy a galaxy S4 and their price is amazing: 500$ for a 16 gb international version + 26$ shipping to Canada. The site doesn't offer a paypal payment method so I'm a little skeptical whether it's a legit site or not. Do you guys know someone who already ordered something from this site and received the item? Thank you.

That big site is weird, many international lenguages, many products, amazing prices... Western union paiment??? Unable to find a single review over the net... Hum... I'd also like to order an s4 there but I'm worried...
Ok so I heard about this site when I contacted a guy who was selling his galaxy s4 on kijiji for 550$. Unfortunately, he said that he already sold it but told me that he bought it from kmax-store and said that I could also buy one from them... But I don`t really have proof that he really bought it there so I think I'll just wait for someone else to order and make a review of the site or something.
Guess what? Same story here. The same guy told me on kijiji montreal that I can get one at kmax. Got to be scam!!

I order from the website last week. my package arrived yesterday. But i didn't pay by western union because i was afraid of scams.
also i check if my samsung s4 was genuine, i call at samsung i provide the serial number and the phone is original.

This is bull$hit ^^
You created your account to confirm that they're not scam?
Ok show us proof/papers from that website.
Just blurr out your name/address and imei number.
Untill someone legit here can confirm that site is safe, i highly recommend to stay away from it.
Yesterday I was going through the checkout process just to see what kind of payment method was available. Once I saw there was no paypal and a weird money transfer to a bank I knew that something was wrong so I didn't pay. Now look what I received today in an e-mail from the store:
"Hello, Every day KMax and Samsung offer to our customers 1 x Samsung Galaxy S3 32GB White. You are the winner for today. To confirm the winning, you must complete your payment for your first order and provide a photo or scan of the bank transfer receipt or Statement.
Please reply to provide more details."
So yeah as Dean said this site is total bull****. Now I feel really bad for those who placed an order there:/

That guy is smart. A very well done site that is close to a real commecrial one.
If you look closer you'll find many small mistakes he did.
Maybe not so smart because to me it seams to be valid address/phone/email;

The site has been shut down. Nobody will have their money stolen anymore.
