Okay so the girl I spoke with said the 3g to 4g is a Chicago only discount that applies to people working in certain companies. She talked to her supervisor who said there is no way I can get it.
I guess I will have to try calling again.

Anyone keeping track of the number of reported variants? :)

You guys are really creative.
 
I live in Maryland and called 5 times before I got the $100.00 dollars off,she assurred me I will get it when I upgrade,providing the phone is released before the 31st.Also,a rep from a verizon store just called me and told me Thursday is the day for sure.I'll believe it when I see it but that's what he told me.Everyone keep your fingers crossed.

So... those of you making multiple calls... do you think Verizon CSRs add a note to your account every time you call? Like, your 5th call, the guy/girl answers, pulls up your file, and sees a note from your other 4 calls for the day?

Just curious, seems like they would keep a record, if for nothing else than to make sure that they have some info on the call without having to pull up a recording or something.

you would think this would be the case, but that's definitely not what i've experienced...some here have gotten it after multiple calls

also, they've never said, why are you calling back for the 5th time today?

Hey all! Been lurking for, I don't know, a month now waiting patiently for the Nexus to release. I just tried to call *611 to see if I could get the $100 credit y'all have been talking about. It didn't work but I threw out the question on when the Nexus was going to be released expecting the same old answer. This time though the lady I was speaking with said right away that it will be some time next year.

I was kind of shocked as I've been optimistic about the 15th so I asked for a supervisor just to confirm this since I've heard conflicting reports. When the supervisor got on the phone he checked his system for a couple of minutes and came back to say all he could find is that it was coming out some time next year but didn't have a specific date. Take it FWIW, grain of salt, etc. Just kind of shocked me that they found that in their system. Still hoping for the 15th.

Hello! Not the best news, but welcome all the same. ;) I'm still pretty hopeful about the 15th, our sources are pretty reliable.
 
I can't decide whether to be optimistic or pessimistic about thursday. I'm getting to the point where I'm just getting upset lol.

OT:
if steven jackson gets 3 more fantasy points by the end of this game I win my matchup this week. I'll use this as my galaxy nexus barometer!

About as logical as anything else at this point
 
OK folks. I have another possible discount for you.

I got the $100 noted to my account (see my earlier posts). I also emailed VZ CS using the online form to email. I did this on Saturday. The gentlemen from that department denied my $100 3g to 4g promo request, but said he'll monitor my account for a 4g phone purchase for the next 48 hours. If he sees me buy a phone, he'll credit my account another $50. I am hoping I can get it extended to 72 hours or longer, to get the GN. Updates to follow.

I feel so bad for S-Jax. He would be a top 3 running back in the league on a decent team.....
 
A CSR chat window pops up only when you know what you are looking for. If you don't need to speak to a CSR, then the window will pop up :p

Kind of sounds like the system he was looking at was a little something called "Google". :D

I work for a major insurance carrier and we dont notate each call.. Only rhe good CSRs and thw bad calls really het doc'd. I would think they possibly keep records if each advisor had something do change on your account but i wouldnt count on it.

Sadly most are under paid and they get pushed to meet AHT (average handling time) and CPH (calls per hour) goals. so they could care less
 
BREAKING BREAKING!!! The photos of the Nexus have popped up in the Costco membership wireless website!! trying to find the accessory pack now!

Hello!
So, sounds like things haven't changed yet...this is tentatively good news I guess. Was it on the 9th last week that launch got reset? Or, before....
I'm wondering if there might be a window, past which we can actually begin to be comfortable that the rug will stay firmly under our feet, lol....
