After ordering my n10 at 8.30 yesterday my wallet still hadn't been updated by Google. Quick call and 5 mins later i get shipment details. Great
No...
The tracking number on my shipment shows a parcel with the same tracking details attached to my order in my wallet has been posted and delivered on the 25th of October... in Liverpool....
Called again and its going to be escalated. Bummmms
Anyone else for issues?

I haven't received any shipping information as of yet. It has been 24 hours since my transaction already went through. I even have a pending charge on my CC. I was thinking of calling Google, I'll reply with any further information I receive.
Call them. They are excellent to call. No long waiting times

This is my first time ordering from Google. I have only heard good things, but this whole situation seems like they were overwhelmed... Just like everyone else I'm excited to get this thing in my hands!

I can't wait for mine either but i can't help but think that they could have predicted huge demand for either there nexus 4 and 10 with the huge spec and low cost....
I'll be upset if my order is delayed because of them... its Google one of the biggest company's in the world. This should be child's play for them
Good luck with your order, call them. They are open 24/7

Thanks! You too. I will let you know what I find out after I call them...
ABSOLUTE JOKE!!!!
Ordered in the UK as soon as it was available. Took half an hour as the site was throwing error after error due to the number of people trying to buy Nexus products.
In the end I got TWO orders and I only had one successful order on-screen
Was told they couldn't cancel either. Multiple phone calls and escalations later and one has been cancelled, but the other is just in state "pre-ordered" and none of the staff know what that order status even means! They've had to escallate the issue.
No tracking. No payment taken. Yet it is supposed to arrive by tomorrow.
Dreadful experience from the Google Play store. Absolute shambles.

Just called them again. Now claiming it is two days for them to sort out shipping, then two days to ship! So four days total!!!!
Just called them. The guy I spoke to says that my order is being process. He say that it takes up to 2 days to process the order and that it should be shipped by tomorrow.

Kinda feels like you're being jipped, paying 14 bucks for 2-day shipping, but having to wait for 2 days to have them "process" it.
Nexus 10 order received, put in box, pack with peanuts, close box, label box, put box on truck. Its not rocket science.
I got my shipped email. My tracking reference shows it as being delivered to Christchurch on 1 November. Will give them a call tomorrow and find out what gives!!
Mines tracking too but the consignment numbers take up to 24 hours to update to the new system. Be patient, you'll get your goods.
Which means they're early by one day.

Mines was ordered by my father as a birthday/Christmas gift. He ordered it, sent to my address but used his gmail account so I can't see shipping info. He forwarded me order number but I can't tell if its been shipped! I also live in CA not far from the order details Google address.
Is there any way I can track it using the order number? I know I'm borderline obsessing but I want to make sure a roommate is home when it arrives

I ordered just after 8am in UK, some people who ordered at kid day have had tracking numbers already.
Over 36 hours later and my order still says pending, and I called up to be told it'll ship by early next week.
Why on earth am I paying £10 for them to take a week to ship me something?
Sometimes I wish my parents gifted me with patience.

oh well I paid 14$ for 2 day shipping. I don't expect it to arrive next week. better be this friday... also they probably ship from CA, and Im in CA. so hopefully..
yea mine says its been delivered in Leeds... must be something strange going on with tracking... surely they couldn't mes this bit up ! hopefully i get it tomorrow
I'm really not happy with the way google are handling this. ****ty ass ordering experience on top of that I was within the first half hour to place my order and thing is still not shipped yet more than 24 hrs later.

Does that mean you have to go back in time to get it on the 1st? All I ever heard was how good Google is with this stuff, and it doesn't seem like they were ready... I guess with any big release there are going to be issues.

Hi guys!
First point - I found really weird that less than 1 week before the release date we cannot pre-order it from the Google Play Store (like Microsoft did it with the Surface). And...
Second point - ...there is a lack of information of what will happen the 13th. When google will start to ship the units? Do we have to worry that will be sold out in the first hours? Is it possible to select 1day shipping from the Play Store in Europe (Germany or UK)?
Thanks
I'm wondering the same thing. I'm guessing in a couple of days we will start to see people from Walmart post pictures if they receive them in stock.
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda app-developers app
Why don't you ask Google if it is so important to you? It will probably ship around the 13th and be with you 2 days later. You won't die if it's 3 days... You'll still have it on time to complain about the device on this forum one week later .
The point is that i will be in Germany till Saturday morning (the 17th). So this will be the only opportunity for me to get one in advance..
Anyone know when google will add the 10 to the store on the 13th?

Google have consistently sent my notifications several days after the product (both hardware and software services) is actually available
Nexus 7 play store shipments took a few weeks to arrive here in the UK. I'd like to know when they're in shops so I can just pick one up in person.

I just called customer support because I too got this email, but my account says its still expected to be shipped by today and the representative told me that everyone who ordered a Nexus 4 got this email. He said that only the people who ordered 2+ devices could be waiting, but those who ordered 1 aren't likely to be backordered.

I only ordered 1 Nexus 4 16GB but i got that backorder email. I just talked to a google REP also and he said, its on backorder. I also had a Nexus 10 16GB in the same order and he said, since the order is bundled, I now have to wait for my Nexus 10 until the Nexus 4 becomes available to ship even though the Nexus 10 16GB is available right now. I asked for a request for my Nexus 10 to be shipped separately earlier and REP said, it can't be done as they are in same bundled order. Lame lol would have been nice if I could have at least had my Nexus 10 earlier. Oh well, it is what it is.

You do realize that google does not manufacture devices. Period. If you want to be mad, be mad at lg. Also if your last couple of devices didn't sell all that well to begin with would you really stock up on a bunch of hardware that has the potential to not sell on top of selling at a minimal gain or slight loss?
Stop whining and be glad that you're getting an extremely underpriced phone out of contract.

Just got off the phone with Google Order Support. They confirmed that anyone that received the email will be placed on back order. Anyone who ordered who has not received the email will have theirs shipped this evening and that all the back order emails had gone out. So if yours is still processing, you will get your shipping confirmation later this evening with 1-2 day shipping.
Please don't kill the messenger.

If they have stock u will recieve it in 3-5 days for sure. If they are out of stock u won't. When I ordered mine, it said they had stock, but it last 2 weeks to arrive. Follow ur order in Chronoexpress if u recieved ur id number, if not, u can just wait...
The Play store still shows the N4 is in stock with 3-5 days delivery. I wonder why they would lie about having stock and lure people to order
and then not ship for 2 weeks. Can I still cancel the order if it status shows as PRE-ORDERED ?
Be patient. You placed an order just yesterday. There are people here who had to wait 2 months for their n4. You are lucky to get it in 3 to 5 days.

It has nothing to do with patience. I need to travel on April 17 and thought I'd get the phone by then.
Wouldn't have ordered it if I knew they won't deliver as promised.
There is something called "Truth in Advertising" and I thought Google knew about that.
I ordered mine on Thursday last week and I only just got a dispatched email (10 minutes ago).
took them 5 days to process my purchase. hopefully its here tomorrow.

Thats the date it is supposed to leave AT&T's possession. Depending on what shipping option you have, will depend on what day you receive it. IF you have the 2nd day FedEx, you should get it on the 16th (latest).
HOWEVER, there is a shipping date range. So if they ship it on the 16th, you will not get it until Monday the 20th. In addition, there has been a report (I have only seen 1 of these reports, but there could be more) of AT&T sedning emails that their shipping may be delayed due to shortage. Due to the lack of others not reporting this email (including me) and I am not so sure it is delayed for most people. Since TMO is shipping already, it is very possible that the AT&T has them in stock already and is prepping them to go out.
So the final answer to your question is ... I don't know, and neither does anyone else. The next few days is all we can say.
The earliest estimated ship date is the 14th. That's when they will hand them over to Fedex, UPS, etc. The phone doesn't officially release on AT&T until the 17th.
I was told I should have mine by Thurs. According to AT&T customer service. I ordered on first day of preorder and mine says estimate shipping 14th to 16th . Rep said it will ship out Tue. I'm not expecting until Friday honestly. However ,I got my preordered Note 1 on Thurs when it was was released in store on Friday . Crossing fingers!

Never fear, it could be worse. Yes, TMo get it today, but we are at least second. Verizon isn't until next week, and the UK missed their release and got it moved back to Friday with ours. Ours could be the smoothest.. maybe.
Anyone hear of the shipment yet? Status on AT&T's site is the same for me "preparing for shipment" with a date of 14-16th for the estimated shipping date.

I preordered 32gb Black pixel XL the minute it was announced on the 4th.
Everything went through fine and I got a confirmation email of the order.
Then I notice that there are no funds on hold in my account .
I think nothing of it and figure they will hold funds when it ships .
Fast forward to Monday the 17th .
I call customer service to inquire when I should receive my phone and why there isn't a hold on my bank account for the funds.
They tell me that I should receive the phone between the 26-28 of October .
And that I will be charged when it ships.
That my order is processing and every is fine .
Last night I get an email from Google saying that my order has been cancelled.
It states to reason as to why ....
So I call customer service , they tell me its a billing issue and transfer me to google wallet .
We verify that my billing and mailing addresses match and they do .
Next we get on a 3 way call with my bank to see if their were any declines from their end .
Once again nothing , the bank has no record of google ever making any attempt to charge it hold funds.
The customer service representative from wallet says " well everything looks fine , so you should go ahead and place an order again "
I said to them it's sold out , how do you want me to do that .
They had no answer for that .
Then she transfered me to the ordering department .
I went back and forth with them about what took place , they escalated it to a tier 2 person , in which they told me to join the waiting list .
This is complete bull**** , they canceled my order for no reason and now I have to get on a waiting list for a phone that i ordered and got confirmation was shipping next week .
What can I do at this point ?
Thanks

That sucks. One thing to try is pleading on twitter. Many companies hate when you make something public on social media so you may get a better response.
Same thing happened to my order. Came in to work today to the cancelled order email. Contacted them via phone and chat and was told something happened in the system and a bunch of orders got cancelled and that there was nothing they could do about it. Absolutely ridiculous! Having ordered over two weeks ago only to get on a wait list now and probably not get the free VR headset!? Really wish this was a regular retail store so I could take my business elsewhere.

So far it doesn't seem like it. All I have been told is that I need to get on the wait list. That is unacceptable as it looks like it will push the order out 1-2months and we would be screwed out of the VR headset. I just called back myself to try talking to someone else or a manager if needed. They said they had to check on something and they would call me back in 5 minutes (we shall see if they do).
The only acceptable resolution for me is for them to reinstate the order and get it shipped out soon as well as still providing the codes for the headsets . After committing to spend over $1600 with Google for two phones I think that is fair on my part.
If you are getting the 32GB, it often goes back on sale multiple times a day. I say 1/3 times I checked the 32GB is available, the 128GB is the hard one. Just keep checking and you will be able to order another one. I used their financing, that might help too if you can, don't have to deal with another bank. No reason not to at 24 mo, 0% interest. Saves yourself a tiny bit through the time value of money.

I just called back again and pressed the issue. They finally escalated the issue but this just means they emailed me to tell me I would hear back in 1-2 business days. I made it clear that this defeats the purpose as by then the preorder is over and I loose the headsets.
Not holding my breath here though.

yeah, really blows. I don't want any other phone but really need a new one. I really don't want to buy from VZW or anyone else with their fingers in things. Worst case I wait until they are available again but I am still going to be very bitter about being screwed out of 2 VR headsets.
google pre order system works backwards.
Same thing happened to me today at 3pm. I had google finance and pre ordered the phone on October 4th and all of the sudden it got cancelled.
There seems to be a lot on canceled orders on here alone. I wonder if it scales up with everyone that pre-ordered? If it does, could it be google canceled random people due to low supply?

Does your order show cancelled in the order history on Google store website?

I just called back again and pressed the issue. They finally escalated the issue but this just means they emailed me to tell me I would hear back in 1-2 business days. I made it clear that this defeats the purpose as by then the preorder is over and I loose the headsets.
Not holding my breath here though.

just a heads up. I called Google the other day to ask about the pre order promotion. I said specifically that I wanted to take advantage of it but was afraid that I would miss it because the window was closing.
The rep from Google told me not to worry that "no matter when you order, if you get this phone, you get a headset".
Verizon seems to be doing the same thing. I called them and they gave me a promo code over the phone they said you just need to activate a phone to use the promo. Doesn't seem to matter when you buy.
I think it was setup this way just to build hype.

It definitely isn't everyone. I have a buddy who ordered one the same day and he also financed with Google. His order has not been cancelled as of now. Granted he did get the regular Pixel so maybe it is related to the XL only?
They claimed to me on the phone that two nights ago at 3am something happened and the orders had issues/got cancelled and that it happened to many orders.

Interesting. One of the people I spoke to said that the promotion was ending at midnight tonight. Another one simply said "as long as the promotion notification is on the website, it is active". The last person I spoke with who escalated it to 2nd level told me that, while she couldn't guarantee anything, in the past they have given vouchers to make up for it if the promo is missed due to this. Interesting that this same type of thing happens each year with the preorders...

Hi, Im matthew
Raul D10:44 AM
Hello Matthew!
Matthew 10:45 AM
Good morning, I called yesterday and expressed that I was interested in taking part in teh preorder promo, but that I didnt think that I would be able to make teh cut seeing as teh 128gb version is sold out.
Matthew 10:46 AM
The Rep told me that It didnt matter when I ordered teh phone that I would get a free headset as long as I was on teh waitlist. Can you please verify this for me?
Matthew 10:46 AM
Please forgive my spelling.
Raul D10:47 AM
I'd really like to see if I can assist.
Matthew 10:47 AM
Thank you
Raul D10:47 AM
You're welcome.
Raul D10:47 AM
Please let me've a look in to it.

US customers who pre order a Pixel or Pixel XL from Google Store or Project Fi will receive a promotional code for a Daydream View at no cost.
Raul D10:48 AM
This promotional code is only redeemable through the Google Store.
Raul D10:49 AM
Daydream View will NOT ship with the Pixel device.
Raul D10:49 AM
A separate email with the subject "Your Daydream View VR headset" will be sent to you after your order confirmation email which will include more details in regards to the promotion [EXAMPLE].
Matthew 10:49 AM
OK , That works, but how about if you missed the preorder because your on the wait list?
Raul D10:50 AM
This outlines that you should receive your promotional code approximately four weeks after your device ships.
Raul D10:50 AM
The promotion has no definitive end date and is only valid while supplies last. Codes will expire 12/31/2016.
Matthew 10:52 AM
ok, cool, so even if I do not place the order by yesterday 10/19/2016, as long as I order and have my device before the coupon code expires on 12/31/2016 than I should still receive the promo code for a free vr headset. Correct.
Raul D10:53 AM
I'm sorry, this is only valid while supplies last.
Matthew 10:54 AM
OK, so as long as I order my device when it becomes available, and while supplies last I should still get a promo code e-mailed to me? Is that accurate?
Raul D10:54 AM
Yes.
Matthew 10:55 AM
Wonderful, thank you, so it doesn't technically need to be a pre-order, its just a while supplies last promo effectively then. Thank you, That makes me feel better.
Raul D10:56 AM
You're welcome.
Raul D10:56 AM
I'm glad I could assist.
Matthew 10:56 AM
Thank you for your time this morning.
Raul D10:56 AM
You're welcome.
Raul D10:56 AM
It looks like you're all set.
So yes it looks liek were all set as long as we get teh device before they run out of headsets lol.
