AT&T Pre-orders delivered Friday? pre-order = waste - Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

since i don't see any threads about pre-orders arriving on Thursday, i take it they arrive Friday?
if so, pre-order is worthless...glad i cancelled mine :silly:
going to their store tomorrow and checking them out and seeing what they still have in stock, then buy if i like.
what happened to the good old days of getting the phone several weeks early?? did that end with the Gnote?

I received my g note 3 on Thursday

verizon pre-orders shipping

I've been waiting patiently for US carrier to make this available for 3 months and finally...finally Verizon makes it available for pre-order. I ordered last night and got a notice a couple hours ago that it's shipping. Default shipping on the order was 2-day so I'll get this on Monday.
If you are in the US and you haven't found this phone through other channels and don't want to wait till May 26, go pre-order on line. Will get it a few days earlier.
On a side note, SE did say that they will make this available on other carriers so don't know what the exclusivity period will be for Verizon. I'm guessing AT&T will get this in a couple months but I couldn't wait anymore.

Ditto for me. Ordered today, shipped today, scheduled for Monday delivery.
Heading in today to preorder mine. But I need to persuade them to give me my upgrade back. Since they changed the time period between updates in January. Wish me luck.

[Official] Best Buy GS3 thread

Ordered your GS3 from BB? I feel your pain, never gonna preorder from a 3rd party again. But if you have any info re: BB preorders, post it up here.
I gotta say, my whole reason for preordering through Best Buy was because they were the first to open for preorders. They started accepting preorders on 6.5.12, everyone else the following day, so I surmised that at best I'd get the phone slightly before everyone else or at worst the same time as AT&T. The sad truth is that although I preordered before 99% of the people here, I'll likely be one of the last to get the damn thing.
That being said, I'll never preorder though Best Buy again. They are as wildly uninformed as AT&T but when push comes to shove, BB gets pushed to the side as if somehow it's customers (who's money goes directly to AT&T just the same) aren't as important as those who preordered through AT&T direct. The one's who lose are us, the customers. Lesson learned. If I ever preorder a phone again, rest assured it will be direct from the carrier.
Sorry for the rant, just sucks to see so many people who preordered after I did get their phone, or at least shipping confirmation (with delivery eta 6.21.12) before I even know if my preorder is going to be filled on or before 6.21.12 as stated on my preorder receipt.
I preordered in a Best Buy store and have no reason to think I wont be able to pick my phone up tomorrow.
Yeah...I ordered from Best Buy as well. But ain't quite ready to rush the joint with torches.
We shall see what tomorrow brings.
Two BBs around me both said the phone was coming out tomorrow. So I'll be up and on the phone seeing if I can buy an unreserved one

Morning shipments. Best buy does not do any inventory things at night. They will arrive in stores via UPS or FedEx.

Yeah...gonna wait until noon to call. Fingers still crossed.
Just went into my best buy store here in frisco, texas. When I arrived the salesman showed me an internal email they received that stated that the pre orders would be closer to july first before they would be filled.
As I was walking out the salesman called me back over to show me a new email they received that said the preorders would be fulfill tomorrow.
Bottomline, the store doesn't have a clue nor does the best buy home office.

Just called my local BB (Corpus Christi, TX) and was told the SIII was delayed but hopefully they'll fulfill pre orders this weekend. I was 14 out of 25 pre orders
Mine told me they didn't even have a date for sprint yet lol. I'm going wherever gets it in store first.

Couple guys in the main Sprint pre-orders thread said they received calls from their local Best Buy telling them to expect a call around noon tomorrow to pick up their phone. They were both expecting shipments by tomorrow morning.

Ok I JUST Pre-ordered MY LG V20 T - Mobile

It's supposed to be shipped tomorrow so fingers crossed and I've been hearing that someone has found a way to unlock the bootloader??? This has not been confirmed as of yet but fingers crossed for the T-moble variant.. Has any one else get a tracking number??
This is critical

Yes, tracking has been given to people who preordered in the first wave of available devices. I'm due to receive it tomorrow according to UPS 2nd day air.

I have had three reps tell me it's backordered and not shipping until 11/8-11/28 and my account recently updated to reflect this on the order. At this point, you're better off trying to walk into a store on 10/28 first thing when they open and pick it up.
Or you could just pre order hoping for the best. Then if it doesn't come by the 28th, cancel the pre order and just walk into the store to buy it.
I recieved an email expected shipping date is 10/18/--10/24 next day shipping
I pre-ordered my V20 (taking full advantage of the $200 trade from LG by swapping my Note 4 in) yesterday and woke up this morning to three texts, one including a tracking number for my order having already shipped. Will update when I can see a location or when it arrives.

Nah, at this point you're just better off walking into a store and picking it up. Everything I've got points to 11/8 being the early edge of the next availability range. At this point after all that I've been put through, I'm starting to entertain the idea of looking at other carriers. T-Mobile got me in over a dozen years ago for their customer service and now even that isn't any better than any other carrier I've had. (AT&T, Sprint and Verizon, had all three in one way or another.)
I ordered Monday morning, CC charged yesterday and ready for shipping this morning. I just got an email from Ups this evening saying it will be here tomorrow. I wasn't expecting that.
It has arrived, and I is very nice, now time to say goodbye to my Note 7...
I ordered at 10am central Monday morning in store (JOD). I have origin scan in Louisville and scheduled for delivery on Wednesday. I changed delivery to a hold at UPS customer center so I could get it at 9am when they open.
I just pre ordered mine. If I don't like it I'll pay it off and sell it on Swappa at full price lol. Or at least get my money back. Plus I keep the headphones too lol. Now the waiting game begins.

ordered mine yesterday after a half hour after my friend ordered his, my phone on the website appeared as back ordered while his was processed and shipped today. Tried to cancel the order and they said I couldn't because my cc was charged and on there end it shows ready for shipment however there was no tracking info. The only thing i got back was my expedited shipping fee credited to my account..........

Anyone pre-ordered/received AT&T V20?

I've been hearing news about T-mobile users receiving the LG V20 early but has anyone received the AT&T version early or is the release date of Oct. 28 the set in stone?
Just saw some people mentioning a couple hours ago about there ETA on AT&T shipments.. I just placed my ordered in tonight. I will keep AT&T people updated on my tracking so they can get an idea..
Mine shipped tonight (Thursday) for delivery on Friday.

I had returned my Note 7s at the local ATT store, and they Pre-Ordered me V 20s (2 weeks ago). Anyway, my Notes came delivered via FedEx, overnight. I figured the V 20s would arrive the same way. So when I clicked the tracking # and was taken to USPS I was overcome by a huge wave of disappointment. My best guess would be a Monday delivery now

I've had mine since the 19th. I love this phone. The battery lasted me all day long and I still got juice left. It feels so fluid when going through apps. I can't wait for root!

Ok mines on the way but no ETA yet just the tracking.
So here's my update for people that purchased the V20 through AT&T online. I placed my order on 10/20 around 10pm PST and received a tracking confirmation today 10/21 that my order will arrive by FedEx on Monday 10/24. I paid for it in full so I don't know if that matters in terms of them sending it out quicker.
Questions for att people that received their phones already.. Does it come with a screen protector on it like I've seen other versions?
I ordered mine in store on 10/13, It shipped out today and will be here by 10/25. I got it in the next plan.
mine was delivered at home just now and I'm stuck at work. <sad face>
I ordered mine online 10/19 and I got a tracking number today. It will be delivered by FedEx on Monday.

$100 Google Credit with Pixel 2 purchase

Cyber Monday deal from Google Store.
Going to have to give them.a call and see if they will give me the credit since I only received a week ago.
*Update*
I called Google and they won't just give me the credit. I have to return this Pixel and reorder. I guess it's no big deal for $100. Just seems silly on their part to now have a used phone.
Anyone else try and not have to return phone?
i'm waiting to get on chat with them. i just bought the phone yesterday so i'd hope they'd be willing to include me in the promo
I bought it Sunday, called Monday. I was told no. They can't refund or even adjust purchased phones after an hour from time of purchase. I now have a second pixel 2 coming and I'll be sending the first one back.
At least I know next time. Next Pixel release I'm not going to buy it until several months later. I could still return mine, however; I'm not going to b/c I'll be stuck with a lot of credit until next year.
I traded in my Pixel 1, so if I return the product the refund will probably not happen for a week in which they will refund the cash portion and re-apply my store credit from my trade in. If I were to re-buy it, I'd be out the immediate cost right now as the refund won't process for awhile so no prior store credit will be able to be used.
Next time I know. The trade in process was a disaster and you'd get more selling it independently. If I bought cash only then I'd do it, but the store credit complicates things.
Plus my Pixel 2 doesn't actually have problems so I feel like I won the lottery as it is LOL

i chatted and they gave it to me no problem. bought it on the 16th november. just got off chat about 10 min ago giving me 100$ credit after 30 days of use. (project fi).. and sending me an email for the google home mini. logistically thats just dumb. lets send a new phone out. pay for shipping pay for return shipping and still giving out the credit. makes no sense.

They pulled this stunt last year, said there were going to be no BF/CM deals and then had something. I decided to hold off on my purchase for just that reason to see what they would throw out for cyber monday.

At least your getting overnight (granted you paid extra).
They should be doing it for free since they are now 4 days after my original delivery date.
Ordered it on cyber Monday night and checked status today that it was delayed. They didn't provide a new delivery date, just that they it was delayed and I would receive an email when it's shipped.
Does anyone know if it's because they are trying to process all the orders they received on cyber Monday or is it an issue with limited stock?
I would prefer the former explanation rather then limited stock, since it could be quite some time before it actually ships if that's the case.
I don't know for certain, but strongly suspect it is because of cyber Monday orders.
Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk
Did they really get hit with more orders than they could handle? I just have such a hard time imaging that this phone is selling so hot they can't keep up with stock.
I don't think it is a stock issue, rather a fulfillment issue. And yes, I think they got enough orders Monday that it slowed down getting them all out the door.
