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

Calling right now aaaaand: nope nothing!


I just called again and I was told all shipments not yet shipped will go out on August 2nd and no sooner. They are shipping them all at once.

The CS agent wouldn't say it but she hinted this is becasue they are not going to produce AMOLED screens anymore and have to switch things over.

That's ridiculous though.. sucks that right before my date, people got them early and now i have to wait? I better be getting a credit or something because they've told me 6/23 the past like 5 times I called.. I don't want to believe the 8/2 date at all.
 
I think I'm going to call them in a little while. Things are so slow at work today. I wished this night meeting would hurry up and get here so I could get home sometime tonight.
I just called and presto I got a number. At first she said no then said hold on its repopulating and boom there it was. Should be here tomorrow by 3pm.

Edit: Order date for real was 6/27 she said.

Edit2: It was overnighted too just like guy in store said it would be.

I would be calling them now and screaming for a credit of some kind. That is dicked up you are gonna have to wait with the rest of us.

If you think about it, it makes sense, because other than all the 611 notifications, nothing has occurred since Friday.

Did your CSR ask you for your cell phone number? Mine did and he said he didn't see any shipping information. I want mine to re-pop up :(

Technically though, they didn't tell me this information.. if a CSR told me on the phone I would bitch but I can't really bring that up to them
 
Na no need for my phone number. I put some kind of four digit pass on my account this weekend when I called so I use it now and they don't ask anything else.

when I call it tells me to say something into the phone with what i'm calling about.. I saw "tracking info" then enter my password.. then they ask for my cellphone number. blah i wish they could look at my account

EDIT: they've been asking when I ordered, and i've said 6/26 so they'll probably looking at a sheet that says 6/26 = 7/23 and telling me that.. maybe i should say i forgot and sometime in june

I told them I didn't know when I ordered. I actually said it was sometime in late June and she said it was June 27th. Then she said b/c of Droid X that the Incredible would be shipping faster.

I pretended not to know when I ordered.. she looked on my account and said that she didn't even see a date when it would be estimated by I was like okay justtt great haha. She said she saw a note saying something about waiting after the 23rd? I was like whatttt? Anyways.. I'm expected to have it shipped by the 23rd.. That's when I leave for vacation.. If it doesn't ship by then, I'm going to call and complain and hopefully get some nice things :)
 
just hope when you get back you don't find out the phone has been discontinued because if the one you get breaks, well we are all gonna be using X's

I really don't know what I would do if that was the case. But don't you think if they were going to discontinue it, they would stop taking orders right now and just catch up and be done?
 
They have caught up and people are getting their phones faster. There used to be a 4 week wait, now it's down to about 3. Might even get smaller than that in the next 1-2 weeks.

Edit: Look how quickly the DroidX got backed up. Website says 7/27 for it today.
 
Ordered my replacement (brand new) on 7/1. Ship date was originally end of July, but was quickly pushed out to 8/3. Saw some noise on the forums about early shipments, so I dialed 611 and got the blessed "phone awaiting activation" message. Huzzah! I called CS later in the morning and was told that my phone had NOT shipped and wasn't due to ship until 8/3. Overnight, but still not until 8/3. The guy said that the system sometimes gets "confused" and broadcasts the "awaiting activation" message when it shouldn't.

I'm still hoping I get a rogue shipment this or next week, but I suppose I'm almost at the end of my journey here...

yup, that is what I was told, every phone goes out 8/3, and then its getting changed or discontinued.

Not fair.. How would I go about bitching about not getting it by the ship by date, and trying to get something for free or a gift card or something? I'm not the type to argue but if it comes to that..
