AT&T Pre-Order and Release date discussion thread

I hadn't heard of Straight Talk before. If you use a lot of minutes, it's an especially good deal. Like you said, it can save you quite a bit of money per year. We have a family plan without a ton of minutes and a company discount, so Straight Talk wouldn't be a huge savings for us. It wouldn't cover the cost of two phones.
 
I think AT&T need to pull their heads out of their a$$es because on another androud forum this dude order less than 48hrs ago and he is getting his today before 3pm WTF AT&T! some of us ordered right after the preorder started and still have no shipping?
I didnt order till the 10th but i still should expect to get mine before the guy who waited till the 19th!

On another note the store i placed the order in is standing by the apple lawsuit story!
:banghead:
 
FedEx tried to deliver my S3 today but refused it. My International model is a keeper.


not sure why I found this so humorous. with everyone out of their minds, the fedex over night isn't even fast enough... and youre like, "yeah, I got one, didn't even want it.. whatever"

I already tripped my circuit breaker on wanting one. It's never worked out well for me anyway, getting one on launch day. I'll hang with my Note until the 2nd or 3rd batch of them. I'm guessing we're already looking at batch #2 with the supposed preorder delay.
 
June 28th. I feel lied to. I made my decision to pre order the S3 based on the assurance I would get the phone on June 21st. Now I have to leave home...
 
The FedEx guy still has is grubby little hands on mine. Normally he is at the office by 10, but, no, not today. Honestly :)

In other news, my P.A. just bought me a 16GB memory card. I guess I should have asked her to grab a case, too. Idiot.
 
I wonder if I can cancel my order. It's still backordered. I did not receive an SMS or email saying mine would get delayed until the 25th. This never happens to the iphone people when they pre-order....
 
Sweeeeeeeeeet!!!! I just got mine from fedex. Charging now so I can activate it. My new mini sim was already popped off its card and inserted in the phone. Testing I guess? I haven't even turned the phone on and this thing is sexy. Shouldn't take long I hope, battery was half charged already.

I am trying to cancel now. I will wait to see how the iphone 5 turns out, then make a decision. Might turn out better anyways since samsung could work out the bugs by then.

Pics or I didn't happen.

I TRIED to cancel my order but AT&T will not allow it. You can either refuse delivery or send it back with the return lable in the box.
 
You know, if it wasn't for AT&T to make such a big stinkeroo and tried to one-up everyone by making a big deal that they were going to be the first out of the gate, then maybe people wouldn't be up in arms. I mean - despite some people getting the phones today, I think they over hyped themselves.

That being said - it's probably better this way for me - I'll get a chance to get a case for it before actually getting it. lol
 
Just got mine .... At 1231 eastern ... Opening right now as I type.... I'm in the Philly area... And ordered on the 6th of June .... The blue model... Its strang that some people are getting there's before people who ordered ont the 6th... Wonder y? ....

I ordered mine on the 14th and just got it. My last phone I got on contract barely worked at all anymore. I told the agent this when I was ordering, she made it sound like she could expedite my order since I was so late ordering. I wasn't lying either, my last phone crashed while I was on the phone with her. Maybe they have the ability to give people priority? Just a theory, not an answer.
 
AT&T is ******ed, they should have shipped in the order of when the orders were placed but clearly the just said F**k it and threw the papers everywhere then used how the restacked them to decide whose order to ship first!!
 
Haha, why do people constantly not believe other people. :) By the way - so the S3 is coming in a Samsung box? Interesting - most AT&T phones I know come in a repackaged in an AT&T box. Are you lying to us? (just kidding)

Anyway, am I mistaken - but I would swear that the either the iPhone 4 or 4S had significant pre-order delivery issues and I'm not sure why that is brought up as a comparison.

I hope people keep posting pictures 'cos I like seeing them. :)
 
I've not even opened it yet...
