I called Clove to find out why phones4u were selling sim free phones and they weren't, this is their response.
Mike
We too have heard this over the weekend.
The response from HTC is that this was an error and all stock was not to be sold until the 29th March
We understand from HTC that Phone4u are no longer shipping HTC ONE
Our first stock (physical stock) is due on the 29th
We are very frustrated that a small qty of stock appears to have actually landed in Phones4U and shipped

I have just had a live chat with Phones4U and was told they still had stock and would be delivered the next working day. I have already ordered with them and he confirmed I should get a delivery email today.
I hope they are right and Clove are just trying to get your business.
Might double check my order then as I placed mine on Sunday just gone.
I ordered one this morning: I wonder when (if) they stop delivering them...

They should confiscate the remaining stock and send it over to Handtec
Quick chat session with p4u who said my phone is in the warehouse awaiting to be dispatched so if they are telling the truth I should have an email from p4u later on today confirming that.
Also if they get told to stop selling them surely thats worse for HTC???
I think they will sell their current stock, just miffed and so is Clove.
What is the point of having a release date if you are not going to stick to it.
I understand why they start getting stock in early but it's naughty to start selling when your competition are not allowed too.

From Dialaphone or P4U?
Sorry but Clove are talking BS. They are upset they didn't get priority stock and are trying to justify it by saying P4U did something wrong. The fact is HTC didn't make as many as hoped. We believe this due to be a shortage of certain components. They decided to release the stock they did have, and for whatever reason we will never know, decided instead of spreading it thinly to many suppliers, gave all the stock to P4U (and some locked stock to 3 and Vodafone). I am sure it is completely up to P4U whether they are using that stock for contracts or handset only.

Exactly! HTC actually sub contract the handing on the phones sold on their website to a company that is part of the wider company that owns Phones4U.
TBH, before last week i'd never heard of half these websites people were buying phones from. God knows why people are buying it sim free from anyone but Phones4u, it has been and still is the cheapest place around.

Updates: Clove, Unlocked-mobiles, mobiles.co.uk have all started shipping orders. Handtec are expected to by the end of the week. Expansys have 14 in stock. Vodafone and Carphone Warehouse seem to have stock in stores.
Has anyone pre-ordered this phone yet? The prices for the 8gb model are currently:
play.com: £449.99 - due on 19/06
http://www.play.com/Mobiles/Mobile/...apixel-Touch-Screen-Mobile-Phone/Product.html
unlocked-mobiles: £429.89 (£365.86 ex VAT) - due on 14/06
http://www.unlocked-mobiles.com/sim...s-sim-free-unlocked-mobile-phone-p-60773.html
expansys: £479.99 (408.50 ex VAT) - IN STOCK (31 as of now)
http://www.expansys.com/d.aspx?i=198072
clove.co.uk: £452.38 (£385 ex VAT) - due week commencing 14/06
http://www.clove.co.uk/viewProduct....&product=F2D9CCC2-695B-4BF3-BAB6-010D64B31860
handtec: £428.86 (£364.99 exc VAT) - due week commencing 14/06 **lowest price**
handtec also have the 16gb version for £528.74 (£449.99 ex VAT), but see below.
http://www.handtec.co.uk/product.php/2976/samsung-galaxy-s-i9000--8gb--sim-free-unlocked- and http://www.handtec.co.uk/product.php/2977/samsung-galaxy-s-i9000--16gb--sim-free-unlocked-
mobiles.co.uk: various deals with a Vodafone contract (usually ends up costing around £480-£600 over the length of the contract)
http://www.mobiles.co.uk/vodafone-samsung-galaxy-s.html
Thanks to Archius for the handtech and clove suggestions, and jasonfreeman27 for mobiles.co.uk
Archius also pointed out this US site:
auroracell: $500 no shipping date yet
http://www.auroracell.com/samsung-i9000-galaxy-s-8gb.html
It's a good price, but does not take account of shipping, and tax could be expensive. Bear these things in mind if you are going to buy from them.
On contract, Vodafone will have the 16gb model, and all these prices are for the 8gb (except expansys).
***UPDATED DATES AND EMAILS***
OK, dates have been changing like crazy, and I have tried to keep up. The latest info (as of Monday 14th):
-------------------------------------
Unlocked mobiles (email thanks to Ferdimage)
-------------------------------------
Dear Customer
Just to advise, all Samsung i9000 Galaxy S orders will begin shipping tomorrow. All pre-orders will be
fulfilled and shipped by close of day on Wednesday.
Our stock is the 8GB version. If you require additional memory, we have a high quality 8GB Sandisk
Micro SD available for 22.40 inc Vat (saving 10%).
http://www.unlocked-mobiles.com/mobi...s/sandisk-8gb-
microsdhc-memory-card-p-11025.html
If you would like to add this to your order, please reply to this email.
Thank you all for your pre-order for the Samsung Galaxy S from Unlocked Mobiles.
Should you have any further questions please advise.
Regards
Unlocked Mobiles
-------------------------------------
Clove (emails thanks to Beards)
-------------------------------------
Part I:
We were told last week that the shipment would take place on the W/C 21st
Some distributors still believe they will get the shipment this week, but I think this is simply that the sales guys have not been updated.
I have a call in to Samsung to try and establish the exact date and whether any shipment will reach Carphone before the channel - I would be surprised
Lets await their reply later this morning.
Shipment delays on launch are always frustrating, but also very common.
However the more I see of the i9000 the more impressed I am!
Regards
Chris Love
Clove Technology
Part II:
I have just spoken to Samsung and they now do think they will get stock out later this week.
I have asked if all distribution will get stock (we have orders with all of them anyway!) and when the expect it actually to land in the warehouses.
They have confirmed that Carphone DO NOT yet have stock.
Regards
Chris Love

Dear customer,

Handtec (email thanks to hmj2k3) - 16gb Version
-------------------------------------
Thanks for your email,
With regards to [the 16gb version] we are still awaiting full confirmation of this however upon the release day we would contact you regarding this, you may wish to take an 8GB model with an 8GB card, or alternatively downgrade to a 8gb version?
Please advise,
Kind regards.
30/05: Just spotted this thread over at modaco: http://android.modaco.com/content/samsung-galaxy-s-s-modaco-com/309557/prices/ No new UK info, but it does have some German pricing.
31/05: Added auroracell and edited post to make it easier to read. Removed paragraph about why I am preordering.
09/06: edited all the new dates in
14/06: added all the emails
Thanks for unlocked-mobiles.com I haven't seen that website before. For international (canada) it's very cheap.
There is also clove.co.uk which has it for a good price.
I will be pre-ordering probably.. and most probably this week.
I will maybe use unlocked-mobiles to order, however I heard that Royal Mail is not the best service to use.
In my opinion the Galaxy i9000's ROM is nearly full featured. Root will definitely help but it seems already great, and it's one of the reasons I will be choosing this over other phones. Also the good large screen that is good against the sun's reflection.
Edit: Actually it seems complicated to order internationally with unlocked-mobiles. I'll stick to expansys.ca or clove.

Just to let you know that I have never used them before, so don't know how reliable/etc they are. As I say, I emailed them last night and they got back to me before noon today, so at least their customer service is pretty good.
For me it is easy to recommend Chris Love's Clove Technology.
I've known Chris for the best part of 20yrs and have never come across any other seller who is committed so highly to his customer base.
Clove are a reliable Family run business where they extend their family approach out to their customers.
They may not be the cheapest but you can guarantee if your phone develops a problem you can easily turn to Clove.
I heard also that Clove has great customer service and very reliable even for international shipping.
I've pre-ordered mine on www.mobiles.co.uk/vodafone-samsung-galaxy-s.html. Picked a £15 contract on Vodafone with £229 down payment. Unlocked of course. They are quoting stock for June 4th, as I ordered mine about 5 mins after they put up the pre-order I hope to be on the first batch

Awesome! I would love to get one as early as that! I have been waiting since it was announced, and I am so impatient...
I am put off Vodafone as their "unlimited" internet is 500mb/month, while t-mobile is 1gb (does anyone know if they will give 3gb if you tell them you are using an android device, even if they don't sell it to you? They have a 3gb allowance for android in their fair usage policy)
Do mobiles.co.uk sell unlocked phones? That would be neat, because I hate branding and the apps that the networks install. Hence why I am favouring unlocked (sim-free) phones now rather than waiting for the contracts to be announced.
Yep, all their mobiles are unbranded and unlocked. Am not too worried about the internet allowance, I tend to do the big stuff within WiFi range. But I think those caps will have to grow as more people start using android phones.
I'm so jealous right now even though i got a nexus one this phone is amazing i really hope T-mobile USA gets this.

I read somewhere that Samsung are releasing a T959-or similar which is a Galaxy S without the i9000 label. Usually the Samsung Txxx phones are T-mobile USA, apparently. So it's looking good for a T-mobile release over there.
Rumours are that all your 4 (?) major carriers are getting it. I hope something similar happens here: Nothing like good competition to bring prices down...

Strangely enough I contacted Chris Love of Clove only this morning to query the UK release, given what we heard yesterday at the Singapore Live Show where Singapore will be getting the phone first on the 5th June.
Chris came back to me and told me they had JUST received confirmation from Samsung tht a revised date is now as of and I quote from Chris ~ "We have now been given a shipment date of WK23 (W/C 7th June)".

Clove are now emailing all people who pre-ordered asking them to confirm they still want to go ahead.
All you need to do is either ring them or click on the email link they will send you.
Good news!
but is the price set yet ?
It's still on the estimated price, I believe.
It is set at £385 + VAT where applicable.
He did email me this morning from clove because I had asked a question and he said it is still an estimated price, because I wanted to pricematch with handtec since it is 20 less. I'll buy from handtec then since both will be sold during June 7 week and it is cheaper and offers fedex shipping 2-4 days (to canada)
Was £549
Now £429
I rang them and they are refunding the difference back to all those who ordered at the £549 price so don't cancel people, this is a heads up.
Sounds like good news for those across the pond.

YESSSSSSSS!! I am sooooo happy, now I can buy one without having to import one from ebay.
FINALLY they realised how expenive £550 was!
I pre-ordered one for £330 with a 2 year contract - reckon they will cut that down to £200 or will I have to cancel and re-order?
EDIT: Seems like contract prices remain unchanged. Think I'll cancel my phone and just order sim-free at this new price!

*** UPDATE ***
I have just telephoned CPW and the lady I spoke to seemed very confused when I told her. She said that it was showing on my order status that the price was £429.99 so she didn't know why I was charged £549.95.
I was asked to go into a CPW store with a copy of my bank statement and email confirmation so they could arrange a refund. I said that this will inconvenience me as I can't get to a store between now and the New Year so I was asked to fax the information instead. Now I have got to wait 1-3 days for a response.
Anyone else telephoned them about this?

I don't think I've been this excited about a phone since the iPhone 4. No pun intended lol. was told on Saturday to expect 26th delivery then a email at 2am to say 27th now nothing... I don't think its coming somehow
Phones4u just called me to say a SGS2 will be delivered to their shop in ten minutes.
Contract only though! Bugger.. the wait continues......
Anyone managed to get a sim free or PAYG from P4U?
I just called my local Phones4U and asked if they are doing it sim-free and they said they won't know until they get it in tomorrow.
So fingers crossed when I call tomorrow they do it sim-free.

As for buymobilephones I've just had an email back from them today regarding my query about processing incase anybody is interested. I suspect this will be same for most of the retailers online (mobiles.co.uk/dialaphone/buymobilephones) etc will probably all send out roughly the same time they told me:
Thanks for your email.
In regard to your query about your handset delivery, as the handset you have chosen has not yet been released by the manufacturer we are unable to process the order until this has arrived with ourselves. The handset is due to be released at the start of May and once this arrives with ourselves we will email you to confirm when this has been dispatched.
If you have any further queries please feel free to contact us at [email protected].
Alternatively, please visit our Help & Support pages for answers to all your queries.
Sincerely,
Emma
So if they have yet to receive the handset, yet phones4u already have them in stock, I wonder when they will receive there allocation. Perhaps retailers won't receive them until the latest date possible (Saturday/following Tuesday) to stop them being sold and sent out early.
It did tempt me to buy today from phones4u, but at an extra £5 a month, it just didn't tempt me enough, considering that's an extra £120 over the contract.
Anyway hope that helps anybody waiting to get there phones; I guess we wont get them until Thursday/Friday next week now.

handtec is the fastest way to get it no contract, but sigh i ordered from clove =[
Just spoken to 3, they are sending out the Silver handset for delivery Friday, also calling customers that ordered the Black offering to swap with the Silver handset due to delays.
These delays being reported is I guess HTC showing priority to major retailers before anyone else.
Sorry for starting a new thread, just thought I'd share this where all 3 customers could see it......
Excellent news, glad i went with the silver in the end.
I did start to wonder if my order would be affected by all the delays.
Initial preorders wil be filled where possible but they won't get a large delivery until the 26th. Insider source.
Good news folks, got an email from three and my phone is ready for in store pickup tomorrow.
And due to other deals, they'll refund my £69 fee as well.

You'll have to get past two killer african greys first
spoke to 3 earlier around 3ish and was told still could deliver tomorrow if order before 4pm. I didn't in the end as the tarrifs were working too expensive compared to T as an existing customer.
But lucky for me I ordered sim free from P4U getting it delivered tomorrow. It's left their warehouse.
Anybody got a confirmation email from 3?
I got told twice on the phone it would arrive tomorrow but no email has arrived with a tracking number.
Yes as posted elsewhere, had an email with tracking code and a 70 quid refund of the pre order....happy days
What's the best deal you have found on 3?

Pre orders start today. On sale from 23/4. Same day as S4.
Also free beets solo headphones with preorders (through telstra at least, not sure about others)
Actually, yes, I think they all have the Beats available for free for pre-orders. For another week, and another $100 I'm not sure I'm ready to cancel my Handtec order just yet. Only Telstra have the Black one, which I want. No pre-order for outright purchase though I notice.

Outright purchase you need to wait until stock is in stores. You also won't get the beats.
I preordered my silver one from Telstra this morning

Cancelled my Amazon UK order and have preordered it from Virgin, all the delays have pretty much nullified the main reason for buying overseas.
Just preordered my 'Stealth Black' then!

lol I walked by there last night before work and thought about going in but thought "nah they wouldn't have it on display yet", silly me.
I've pre-ordered mine from Vodafone and they also come with the Beats headphones.
I was told they would deliver mine after the official launch on the 27th
sucks they are not doing pre orders for outright, hopefully they Telstra has some black ones in stock when they first come out

Optus are delivering on opening day (the 23rd) to metropolitan addresses, I think. Either way, I hope to have my Black one a week before and a $100 less. Fingers crossed.
