Date you ordered and received the phone vs. "will ship by" date

So...I hear a vehicle rolling into my driveway and from the sound of it, a BIG vehicle.I peek out the window to see who it is...Lo and behold it is a FEDEX truck!!!!I get to the door the same time the guy knocks...its not my phone. Turns out, an order hubby placed a week ago got shipped from 2 different locations so we will have 2 deliveries on that order and ony got one tracking number so I had no idea a package was showing up today.

Then I thought to myself, there is no way my phone would be here already...I ordered on 6/16 with processing on 6/17 so I shouldnt even think of expecting it until around 7/12-7/15...

I can only imagine your disappointment
 
Any other people order on 6/6 and feel crappy because people on the east coast who ordered on 6/7 already have their Incredibles? I feel like orders from 6/6 and the western states are getting hit the worst. lucky for me, i'm in both

I can imagine having people who ordered after you getting their phones has to be the most frustrating thing that could happen. The PA warehouse clearly had a large order come in.
 
Ordered 6/5 In Store, Arizona
ESD 6/25 Overnight for Delivery on 6/28
Received call from VZ saying phone Shipped 6/30 and would arrive 7/1
Also was notified I would receive the 25 dollar credit for the store.
 
Hi everyone, order date 6/18 here...so i'll be getting this phone when the iphone comes out for vz.

My ship date originally read 7/16, sent a quick email to verizon and here is what I got (seems more and more people are seeing this).

Good afternoon. My name is Norbert and I welcome the opportunity to address your inquiry regarding the status of your equipment order. There is currently an additional 7 business day delay for the shipping of the incredible. We unfortunately are unable to change the shipping method after the order is placed. If you have not been contacted you may soon be contacted by our marketing team regarding this delay, either via email, text message or phone call. We will be providing $25.00 gift cards per account due to the additional delay.

I appreciated the opportunity to address your concerns regarding the status of your equipment order. I truly apologize for the delay in your order. We appreciated your continued patience. I trust the information I have provided you with will help addressing your inquiry. Thank you for using Verizon Wireless. We appreciate your business.
 
My order was processed on 6/5 and I was originally given a 6/24 ship date (Chicago Area).

Today I got a text message that there will be a delay of up to 8 business days and they would be crediting my account $25 for the inconvenience (big whoop!). I think I will be stopping at the Verizon store I ordered from and talking to the rep I have been working with. I am seriously considering switching to the MotoDroid X -- I just want to eyeball it first!

The wait has just gotten to be ("incredibly") ridiculous and now there appears to be uncertainty that the phone will even have the same type of screen that was identified when I ordered it.

My wife placed an order for an Incredible around 4 or 5 days after me -- no telling how long hers will be back-ordered by!

Well, on my way home from work I am in the car telling my son about the message from Verizon and how I am fed up and thinking I will cancel my order and get a Droid X... at that exact moment, the CSR from the Verizon store calls me and says he just wanted to let me know that my DInc has shipped and I should have it by Friday. Go figure!;)

I got him to e-mail me the tracking number and, sure enough there is a package on the way from Memphis.
 
I know how you feel, I jump everytime my email beeps. Hopefully us 6/8's will get the good news soon.

Yeah, us 8'ers are hungry for some action.
I had sent CSR an email about my order, related to something other than the b/o issue and they mostly addressed the b/o situation, saying that it will ship on or before 7/7. Whatever!
 
Congrats DPayne. Enjoy

Congrats and enjoy your phone!

Thanks. I was getting extremely frustrated at the thought that I might not get it for my trip this weekend. I am leaving Friday so I was starting to wonder if I could pick it up from a fedex location before I left.

I hope they can catch up and get everyones orders on time or before the dates again. Good luck to all those still waiting.

:p You gotta go with what seems to work. Of course I am not sure if it was the bitching or the fact that I vowed not to change my underwear or socks until it came...:rolleyes:

Bwahahaha.... My family is already pissed at me for talking Dinc day in and out. Now if I start refusing to change clothes they will definitely disown me.

Who would have thought that ordering online on the 6th would be like staying on the 13th floor in a hotel. The elevator stops on the 12th floor and the 14th, but not the 13th. I didn't realize that WA. state had been sucked into a black hole. :D
 
does any one know... If the rumors behind the 16 second commercial are true? it says "Droid X to be out in stores by Friday?" Is there any truth behind it? too good to be true :( any one? here is a link that i stumbled upon.

Droid X teaser reveals July 2 release? - Google 24/7 - Fortune Tech

I know the video is at 360p (progressive) but it does look like some artifacting or interlacing blur. Surely VZW have learned their lesson to not give a specific date after the DI drama.
 
Congrats to all receiving their emails with shipping info, but.......................................... WHERE IS MY MOFOIN DINC!?!?!?!?! THIS SUCKS WATCHING ALL THESE 6/7S GO OUT! if we get notice tomorrow, we wont get until 7/6! BS! BS! BS! Verizon, i poo on your head!

:( so i am guessing that is all BS?

Also if any one knows if i have to walk in the 15th *the day the Droid X is SUPPOSED to be released" And get one? any thoughts on that? i Heard you cant pre order it.. Beacuse of this Crazy drama with the Dinc... I ordered my Dinc on the 6/26... so i am not going to wait 2 months for out dated technology... :D
