Google just screwed everyone! Anyhow, I picked up a tablet from Staples and don't care about the pre-order anymore which I placed as it was being released at Google I/O. I called 1-855-836-3987 but they hang up on me after holding for 5 minutes. I called the Toronto number +1 416-915-8200 and they never pick up.

What the heck is this? Is Google becoming EVIL?

*** I hope European commission slaps them with the biggest monopoly fine ever or splits them in half.

Ordered 29/6. UK

16gb Nexus7

Just had the money taken from my account.

I'm like a fatty at a chocolate factory right now!
[Nexus 7 General] jotei66:
Its good to hear the UK's batch is (hopefully) starting to get delivered... I can't be arsed to call if I am honest, I called couple of days ago and the Google rep (poor dude..lol..) didnt have a clue what was happening. I politely just said thats fine man and thought I will await delivery as and when it arrives and should I feel the need to copmplain (assuming it arrives way way to late that I could of bought in the shops anyway) then I will email Google's UK office and provide negative feedback as appropriate. Thanks for this update man btw... my two units were ordered 27th and like many of us UK peeps, have not had one email confirming anything..
[Nexus 7 General] ynnek63:
hahaha,,,,,,,,that is funny as hell!!
[Nexus 7 General] lazl0:
It seems that UPS is finally updating tracking info. Getting mine tomorrow. Now I wait 30 days to root. Gotta make sure it works properly.:D

my other phone is a Nokia n900 maemo
[Nexus 7 General] adiliyo:
as poorly designed as their system is, i really don't see that ever happening. :p
[Nexus 7 General] v3rn:
My tracking number finally updated. Ordered the 28th, got a tracking number Saturday morning. Finally got scanned and I should get the tablet tomorrow.
[Nexus 7 General] towelieee22:
Are you guys that are being charged all in the UK?

If you are posting your updates can you include where you are from , date you ordered and what model. Thanks!
[Nexus 7 General] Solange82200:
I was asking about flash earlier in the thread, can any of you lucky guys who got theirs confirm that downloading a third party browser is able to view flash sites? Like amc walking dead site for example? Alot of times the videos on that site dont work on my iphone, but work on my Droid 4 perfectly.....
[Nexus 7 General] nickmv:
You'll learn very quickly that Google's method of handling customers is to NOT handle them. They basically make it very difficult to contact them to resolve anything at all. Until the Nexus S was released, Google didn't even have a phone number to call regarding anything. Your best bet was to submit a "support ticket", which is and always will be a joke of a system.

Google to this day still has the worst customer service, communication, and support of ANY mobile device manufacturer/developer/etc.

I guarantee that we'll NEVER see an official PR statement regarding the botched release.
[Nexus 7 General] :
Yes, because the new definition of EVIL is an automated system hanging up on you, not, you know, genocide or war crimes.
[Nexus 7 General] TomRichy:
I've not heard anything yet!

UK - 6/7 - 16gb
[Nexus 7 General] adiliyo:
let me find the flash apk and i'll test it out for you as it won't let me download flash straight from the market.
[Nexus 7 General] jaroslavj:

Ordered 30th June from Play store.. no charge yet!
[Nexus 7 General] aberlourj:
Hooray for UK order movement! Although I am not expecting anything yet (July 5th ordered) I am still very excited! (Even though I feel my order is messed up due to card replacement and GP just leaving me high and dry about it when calling about my situation)
[Nexus 7 General] dreamer3kx:
Anyone going to reject package because picked up already?

[Nexus 7 General] Solange82200:

[Nexus 7 General] Thunderpeel:
Ordered 28th June in UK, I see a pending charge in my bank since the past 30 mins or so. No update in google wallet, no email yet
[Nexus 7 General] bpahunt:
UK charge here to.

Ordered on the 29th for 16gb.
[Nexus 7 General] iwantanandroid:
Awesome!!!!!! I just been charged 16gb UK. 28/6
[Nexus 7 General] big-hol:

[Nexus 7 General] James-NC:
UPS finally updated and mine will be here tomorrow afternoon. :fingers-crossed:
[Nexus 7 General] bpye:
Ordered the 8GB on the 5/7 in the UK. My Nexus 7 hasn't moved on the orders list yet, I did screw up the initial card details so that failed, but I amended it and it said it was okay. Let's hope I see some movement.
[Nexus 7 General] jsebol80:
My UPS tracking just updated, same with everyone else. Scanned in Louisville (makes sense) and is en route to Illinois.

Just ready for this to be over. At least there's light at the end of the tunnel!
[Nexus 7 General] Sizeth3:
Mine is scheduled for delivery tomorrow, my tracking page just went green. Ordered 6/27 at 10 pm 16 gig with no accessories.
[Nexus 7 General] Solange82200:
I ordered 16 gig on it;s own, on July 4th. Still nothing, no email, no charge. I dont know how some of you are able to find Nexus 7's out there in brick and mortar stores, I called Gamestop here in Miami and they said all they had was their preorders, and I didnt even bother calling anywhere else, I already know the deal around here, its impossible to get anything even SOMEWHAT popular. I have to buy EVERYTHING on the internet....

Edit: I dont know why I put caps on all those words, Im a bit pumped up lol
[Nexus 7 General] mirror image:
It sounds like all those in the UK getting movement on their devices ordered around the end of June. So I'm assuming they're going through them in order, from earliest to latest. Therefore I'm probably going to be refreshing Google Wallet every ten minutes for at least the next 24 hours.
[Nexus 7 General] xilefian:
So I filled in the TNT timing form on their site using Google's Dublin address as the from, my address in London as the to and the collection time of package as 5pm today (Around the time we all got charged), the estimated delivery date with economy express is the 18th, so Wednesday is the probably date of arrival!
[Nexus 7 General] elhambo:
I did the same. My order (29/6) has now been charged, so it should be ok.
[Nexus 7 General] charlesky:
UK. Ordered 8GB on 28 June. Order is now showing at top of list with a date of 16/7.

At last there's a glimmer of hope!
[Nexus 7 General] morell2:

[Nexus 7 General] vossitch:
London, ordered on the 29th June, new pending transaction in the last 20 mins and the Nexus 7 has hit the top of my Play store order list...

To much to expect delivery tomorrow??? :-D
[Nexus 7 General] jmbillings:
Ordered 27th

No bank charge yet :(

Play account updated to 16th July though :)

Nothing in Wallet :(
[Nexus 7 General] Shadohd:
8GB model + no accessories

Location: Canada

Ordered: 27/6

Status: just charged cc, no email or changes in wallet.
[Nexus 7 General] :
UK here.

Ordered on 1st July.

No charge or change in position in google play/wallet.

Maybe they did all the June orders today? Then half of the July orders tomorrow and the rest wed?

At least something is happening now :)
[Nexus 7 General] rdubbs007:
Preordered a 16GB off Office Depot website on July 11. Got email this morning that they changed expected deliver date from 7/24 to 7/18. Good times.
[Nexus 7 General] TonyHoyle:
27/6 here.. no charge. Google doing things in random order I guess.
[Nexus 7 General] girux1:
Nexus 7 8g (no case)

Canada - Quebec Pre-ordered mere minutes after it was available.

Finally got charged for it today!

I just need to wait for UPS now.
[Nexus 7 General] dpjohnston:
It would appear that first wave of UK orders is anyone that ordered from 27th - 29th either 8 or 16Gb model from postings in last hour or so.
[Nexus 7 General] pclov3r:
Anybody else keep getting Service Unavailable?
[Nexus 7 General] casbar12:
I placed my order the first hour the order page went live. After I ordered the Nexus I saw the cover and ordered one of those too. I wasn't happy when I found out I had to pay double shipping for the two separate orders. I wrote Google and asked if they could consolidate the orders. Google then cancelled both orders and asked me to reorder. I placed another order with both items about 4 hours after my first order. My line items have still not updated. I should have just stuck with my original orders and ate the shipping costs. I would probably have my Nexus in the next day or so. Now who knows when. Stupid cover.
[Nexus 7 General] xilefian:
Expect it on Wednesday
[Nexus 7 General] shell_c:
Pre-ordered via the play store on the 28th (27th US date) and haven't had any bank activity, notification but still waiting patiently. I was expecting the nexus at the end of July so anything before that date will be a bonus. I'm still optimistic.
[Nexus 7 General] kajura:
US, in Jersey

Preordered 16GB model + cover on the 27th - so far nothing happened.

No charges on cc, no status update.

Trying to remain as calm as possible...
[Nexus 7 General] dexter35803:
Yes it means that there are way to many damn ppl online and the server is having trouble keeping up
[Nexus 7 General] Creoden:
The device will come when it comes. Located in Canada, ordered on the 29th, Card was charged this morning, device moved to the top of my play purchase list, now we wait.
[Nexus 7 General] ynnek63:
yep. all us Nexus buyers with OCD are overwhelming the servers I guess!! Just can't keep my finger away from the F5 key!!
[Nexus 7 General] clnsmn13:
Google has no excuse my label was created on 7/10/2012 and shipped 7/16/2012 . I was charged 7/13/2012 and told it shipped that day which was a lie. They could have shipped it 5 day shipping on 7/10/2012 and i would have received it today. Not happy at all. :(
[Nexus 7 General] lemm813:
Does Google Wallet actually get updated with shipping information? It's my understanding that it only handles the payment and that "Google, Inc." is responsible for that.
[Nexus 7 General] Andrew025:
:victory:
[Nexus 7 General] aliburns:
I suspect the Dublin address is just a Google tax dodge or use of available employment subsidy but either way Wednesday would be reasonable to expect your fondleslab.
[Nexus 7 General] dexter35803:
Dude when a label is created you get a shipment notification it does not mean that it has actually hit the Carrier yet it just means hey i am about to ship this here is a way to track it
[Nexus 7 General] samarth1:
Don't worry, you're not alone. I'm on the same boat, ordered an 8gb+16gb, both with covers on June 27th and I've heard absolutely nothing so far. My only movement is that I've been charged for the 8gb one, thats it. Extremely frustrating, more so the fact that calling customer support is a waste of time seeing how they're having 30+ minute wait times right now.
[Nexus 7 General] xilefian:
I do feel for you, must be worried. It will come eventually, don't worry, there are other people in the US who have no info with their order (16GB with cover last month), so you're not the only one.

I'm in UK and I'm glad to see things starting to move, it's the lack of communication that upset me the most but that bank charge feels like communication enough right now
[Nexus 7 General] elias0441:
I honestly don't think this will delay your shipment, you still managed to order on the 27th
[Nexus 7 General] ameno13:
It had better come by the time Google said so. They've already demonstrated that they don't understand the concept of "pre-order" let's hope they know what a "commitment" means.
[Nexus 7 General] Sir Wilhelm:
Preordered 16 gb/no case through GP on 6/28 @ 1323.

Charged 7/11

Label created on 7/11.

Shipped 7/16 through KY hub.

[Nexus 7 General] jaroslavj:
All those who pre-ordered early in UK are like

[Nexus 7 General] lemm813:
But he also ordered a Cover... and Google doesn't like people who order covers...
[Nexus 7 General] skappy7:
I don't get it, how did Google fail? other than generally sucking
[Nexus 7 General] munimisu:
:fingers-crossed: Yaay... im happy to see Canada is getting some update. I ordered on 27 during keynote, no update yet.. :( I hope you get yours soon.
[Nexus 7 General] adiliyo:
the google wallet page does get updated with shipping information "google, inc" is only reponsible for taking your money.
[Nexus 7 General] Stromos:
So much better if this was Tennant. BTW when does the new season start?
[Nexus 7 General] pclov3r:
Same here. I think everybody with UPS will see the same. A day earlier then i expected.

[Nexus 7 General] Warren_Orange:
Just checked my card. £168.99 is pending. Looks like Google have taken the money.

Should be soon now!!
[Nexus 7 General] adiliyo:
because charging someone for something on the 11th and then shipping THREE business days later is full of fail for such a large company.

and then having the audacity to charge for 2 day shipping on top of it.
[Nexus 7 General] Tiredad:
UK, ordered 28th, still no go. Hope is rising though.
[Nexus 7 General] mathufu:

And I loved Eccleston as the doctor, was disapont he went off to make it in the US and didn't get very far :(

Anyway my post is to ask if anyone elses store transaction in the UK are showing in US$?? Mine does which is a bit confusing
[Nexus 7 General] gmikesell:
I picked up my Nexus 7 from Sams while my wife waits for hers to arrive. In the meantime, I successfully got flash working by installing Dolphin HD and found the flash apk on android central. I'd be glad to post the URLs to it here but as a newbie to this site, don't have the requisite permissions. You can Google for it though. That's how I found it.

Oh, I should also mention that it works great unless you try to enlarge to full screen in what case it crashes the browser. I just turn my tab to landscape and the window enlarges comfortably.

(Update)

Since Dolphin HD no longer supports flash I've successfully switched over to FireFox Aurora. It works way better for flash support anyway so I'm completely happy with that now.
[Nexus 7 General] Solange82200:
I posted this yesterday, but again for those who missed it:

I called Google yesterday and got a guy in like two minutes (dont know how, normally the hold time is so long I hang up). He told me he heard the 8 gigs are shipping friday, 16 gigs today, and anything with a case tomorrow. Obviously that isnt completely true, based on what we have seen on this thread, but it does seem like people who ordered 8 gigs after us that ordered 16 gigs are getting there's first, and people with case orders are having delays....
[Nexus 7 General] jaroslavj:
And some dance
[Nexus 7 General] adiliyo:
google tends to list purchases in the currency of the seller, i'm pretty sure they do this for apps too
[Nexus 7 General] B_Sharp:
Finally shipped.

Shipping out of Louisville Kentucky and should arrive here in Denver tomorrow.
[Nexus 7 General] oobatz:
I would imagine they are charging these in batches, the fails go to one side, labels come out for the good ones, some poor sap then has to label all the boxes. I'm expecting Wednesday delivery.
[Nexus 7 General] Sir Wilhelm:
Lol. I have never been charged for a purchase online and not have it ship that same day or the next... till now. You?
[Nexus 7 General] TrevSo:
That should be what you're seeing, seeing as you were charged for 2 day shipping. :P

I ordered an 8GB Nexus 7 on June 27th, it "shipped" on Friday, but it didn't get to UPS until today. Scheduled for delivery tomorrow.
[Nexus 7 General] desiresiscool:
has anyone got information about when Currys UK will deliver the nexus 7

Lool I meant whoever ordered it. OR MAYBE THAT SITE SELLS THE NEXUS 7
[Nexus 7 General] SupaDupaFly24:
LMAO, I love this thread!
[Nexus 7 General] rcg8584:
Lol, I am trying to figure out WTF is coming from SureFit. I have not ordered anything from them that I know of. Damn you UPS... :confused:

Time to go drown my sorrows. Please don't run me off with pitchforks and torches.

I used to work For UPS if it was scanned in on Friday for 2nd day air it would have been put on a plane by 1 a.m and hit sort here in Chicago Saturday and be on a truck for Monday delivery. Im pissed because i was told it shipped Friday when in reality it wasn't shipped until this morning.
[Nexus 7 General] fakker:
https://play.google.com/store/account

Check that, if that link takes you direct to the Play store; go to the bottom and My Account & Settings... Mine has been bumped up to the top, with a date of today (I ordered on 27th). However, my wallet.google.com hasn't updated/changed.
[Nexus 7 General] dockinj:
Tick Tock Tock

And it is now 12:38 PM on the east coast US and I have no notification of shipping, no charges, and no MyUPS notifications so my order has either fallen off the desk and into the bin, or it somehow got shoved under every other order for this device form the last 3 weeks.

Very disappointed. I should never of added that case to my order. I don't even want that stupid grey case, its ugly and Ill bet it will do nothing for the device. Ahhhhhhhhh!

[Nexus 7 General] bronx:
Could be right. I've ordered on 30 - still nothing. :/
[Nexus 7 General] Kas206:
Woo! Currys website now updated. Its showing as in stock!

Hopefully it should ship today
[Nexus 7 General] adiliyo:
this. if a label is created it is implied your order is on its way to shipping, not sitting around for the next (or next three) business day to be actually sent out.

while i'm a little more forgiving on a friday ship (especially since most friday shipments are getting to us on tuesday, which is 2 days) the one guy who had his order charged on the 11th and got his tablet shipped today, that i would demand shipping costs back for.
[Nexus 7 General] doctahjeph:
technically it did ship the "next" day. As in the "next" business day.
[Nexus 7 General] adiliyo:
how is the 11th and the 16th two business days apart? :rolleyes:
[Nexus 7 General] kangxi:
Does UPS ever deliver something in the same day it was shipped? For example, I'm in Florida and it was shipped from Kentucky this morning which is only 2.5 hours away.

Edit: Or on second thought, I probably could pick it up from the distribution center tonight. I wonder.
[Nexus 7 General] adiliyo:
not in my experience, they will ship it to your local hub and then it will go out the next day most likely.
