I am in the same boat. Nothing yet and I ordered the same on the 28th.
[Nexus 7 General] jotei66:
Ordered: 2 x Nexus 7 16gb

Time Ordered: 27/06/2012 @ 22.05

Card Charged: Yes

Location: North East UK

No tracking info..

My partner just rang Google from work, she's tried a few times and apparently the 0800 freephone number not responding...
[Nexus 7 General] l0ngxnguyen:
Yeeeeeeee buddieeee!
[Nexus 7 General] Evo_Shift:
I didn't order a case and I have no new information and no shipped email. I have what I must assume is a preauthorized charge on my credit card based on my available funds. But companies do that all the time before actually charging you. I ordered my tablet on 6/27 11:32cst. It has nothing to do with the case. Google just doesn't seem think people care that they don't ship stuff in the order received.
[Nexus 7 General] ynnek63:
no, unless you pay some big $$$$$ for same day. Google only offered 2 day.
[Nexus 7 General] lover_faizy:
Ordered Mine on 27th Google Play Store

16GB Model

London UK

Just Checked my Banking , Have a Hold of £208.99

Looks Like Its Gona Ship Soon ... Because Google Rep said me You Will get Till 19th July as a Unified Launch , Everyone who Pre-ordred will get till That date from Every Retailer
[Nexus 7 General] doctahjeph:
I dont' know what you are talking about. I was charged on Friday. So for me it really did ship the next business day.
[Nexus 7 General] kangxi:
I revised my question above. I could probably pick it up from the local hub tonight?
[Nexus 7 General] Eeescape5:
Is there anybody out there still left in the cold with no green bar?

6/28 order, 8GB no accessories, tracking number since Friday and still don't have any estimated delivery date or a green bar.

Orlando, FL btw.
[Nexus 7 General] JimmyHACK:
Oh yeah I know they mishandled it. and good luck to your order
[Nexus 7 General] gmikesell:
No prob. Another tip I found d was that if you want to use Chrome for your default browser, install "flashify" from the play store. Then, when you see a page that has flash that you want to see, go into settings > share > flashify > select the flash enabled browser and it automatically transfers the URL to the other browser for viewing. Very nice!
[Nexus 7 General] Sir Wilhelm:
Oh yes they did.

They got my monies.

They got your monies.

They got a whole lot o monies from early buyers.

Live and learn I guess.

Similar:

Location - Belfast

Ordered - 28th June

So on my credit card of £450 limit, on 28th June, an invisible 'reservation' was placed, reducing my visible available balance but not showing up. Today, this has happened again, leaving me literally £40 available balance, but no visible transaction for either.

So, I have been charged, in a way, but not quite. I assumed it was just that the reservation would be bumped to taken, not that they would put through another transaction entirely! I called my bank, Northern Bank, and the woman told me that the original reservation was instructed to be held until 00:34 on Thursday 19th July, at which point it will drop off. The new, identical 'pending' was lodged only today. So I'm lucky I shuffled some stuff around, or the second charge might have hit my limit! Not the best way to do banking, Google!

No tracking yet, but I'm hoping this is good progress for a delivery in the next 2 business days, maybe Wednesday, but more likely Thursday, I.E. the originally touted UK release date...
[Nexus 7 General] vidanay:
Getting a yellow bar would be way hotter than what I have so far...total silence on my order from 6/28 10am CDT.
[Nexus 7 General] skappy7:
They still don't have my monies...and i ordered July 1st in the US. If it's not charged by 4:00pm, i'm just going to Sam's Club nearby who has 3 in stock.
[Nexus 7 General] dexter35803:
Well look at it this way ur still getting 2nd day air since it will be delivered tom by the end of the day hell thats considered overnight since it scanned this morning
[Nexus 7 General] aggigoogoo:
Curry's twitter feed says we can expect them on 19th to coincide with the official release date.

Hoping it might be earlier but resigned myself to the fact that it probably wont :-(.

Still can't wait to get it though :-)

[Nexus 7 General] airprox:
Ordered 28th here in UK. Been no movement, and no responses to emails... Until now. In the last hour, order has popped to the top of my list with todays date. No money taken from CC, and no update to wallet. And still no email. can't believe this actually got me slightly excited. Would still like to see some better comma from Google... No overly impressed with this process.
[Nexus 7 General] just lou:
I know I'm probably in the vast minority, but is anyone else kind of glad that their N7 hasn't shipped yet due to what seems like a fairly common screen issue in the first run of N7's. I'm hoping mine comes from a different manufacturing run.
[Nexus 7 General] ynnek63:
I doubt your hub would be open that late. Most likely will not arrive until the AM sometime.

I used to work at the Louisville hub. Sorting started at 11pm with all the planes in the air by 3am.
[Nexus 7 General] findmike:
Yeah I don't think anyone was charged on the 11th... I wasn't anyway. I was charged on the 14th by GOOGLE *Devices GOOGLE.COM/CHCA. There were authorizations and what not before that but the charge, the actual removal of the money from my account, occurred on the 14th and I don't recall a slew of people clamoring about that happening to them before that date.

It's probably me though, I read too much into stuff. They tell me they will charge when they ship it. They charged me when they shipped it, and for some reason I am happy.
[Nexus 7 General] Solange82200:
Nice indeed! I usually use Dolphin Browser on my iphone and Droid 4, so it sounds like Ill probably be using that as well on my Nexus 7. Enjoy, let us know if discover or try out anything else out worth mentioning, I'll live vicariously through you guys till I get mine!
[Nexus 7 General] rmm200:
I envision all the Friday night ships being loaded on a truck (UPS, Google - no one knows) Friday night.

They set there happily until Monday morning when UPS scanned them at the Kentucky hub.

I think even UPS counts them as a Friday ship, since Tuesday delivery is two day air service from Friday.
[Nexus 7 General] Morningstar132:
For mainland UK there is absolutely no reason why we shouldn't get our tablets tomorrow, unless the people dispatching them are complete idiots and haven't sorted them by delivery hubs... oh...
[Nexus 7 General] nusairh:
naah.. I've already paid $15 for shipping dude. that's 7.5% of the price of the device.. :p
[Nexus 7 General] lover_faizy:
Happened with me also But the Hold was on 27th June and in 2-3 days it was Gone , Now today again a Hold of same amount , but this time i think they are charging :)

Ordered 27th June Play Store

London UK
[Nexus 7 General] bleclair:
Just you, lou! :D

(27th 11am, 16gb + accessories, still no 2nd charge)
[Nexus 7 General] kirbfucius:
The N7 I picked up from Sam's is flawless, so I'm not glad my order from Google hasn't shipped yet. I sincerely doubt that Google's stock sent from Asus is any different than Sam's, GameStop's, etc. stock shipped from Asus.
[Nexus 7 General] Sir Wilhelm:
As of 0812 pst I have asked for Google to look into it and have yet to hear a response.

Won't hold my breath though, enjoy living to much.
[Nexus 7 General] Matto.stark:
I agree. I thought I remember seeing someone's post early on in this thread before anyone had recevied an N7 that they spoke with a CS rep and they had said something about the adhevise problem with the screens. Here is hoping our N7's were delayed to correct the problem...

Seems we will be finding out tomorrow though, just hope I don't have to sign, no one is home at my house during normal delivery hours all week :(
[Nexus 7 General] Solange82200:
So.... Jealous... I don;t know what you are waiting for, if I had any in stock near me I would be like to hell with Google! Why waste 13 bucks in shipping to have to wait longer to get it? I would be at that Sam's Club yesterday if it was me!
[Nexus 7 General] crankcaller:
Rr

Also ordered 28/6.

Money pending again on my card as of an hour ago...

Here we go!
[Nexus 7 General] saadi703:
Me too
[Nexus 7 General] dexter35803:
Actually they are different since they have to make them in batches to keep track of serial numbers and what not so ya it could have a been a totally different stock hell it could have even been made in a different plant for all you know
[Nexus 7 General] rmm200:
You are hoping for a lot... My personal guess is a batch of them got overheated in transit (USA is roasting) and the adhesive gave way.

I just hope for one that kept it's cool.
[Nexus 7 General] charlesky:
Yes, mine is showing in $ in the Account orders, but £ in the wallet screen.
[Nexus 7 General] Evo_Shift:
If it is just an adhesive problem I would open it up and use some double sided 3M tape from a home improvement store. It would probably be fixed in 5 minutes. It would be annoying but easier than getting a replacement. This device looks like it is easy to open from those tear down pictures.
[Nexus 7 General] just lou:
Figured. :laugh:
[Nexus 7 General] ynnek63:
I've had mine diverted to my local UPS store for that reason and they are open until 7pm. They always get their shipments in early too.
[Nexus 7 General] airprox:
The race is on... Will they get to Glasgow or Aberdeen first? :-)
[Nexus 7 General] adiliyo:
at least one person was. i was also charged on the 13th, if they don't ship it today then i find that to be unreasonable as well.
[Nexus 7 General] brizey:
I ordered a 16 gb on 6/27 and i have a real tracking scan from UPS.it is at the Louisville hub.
[Nexus 7 General] Tiredad:
Unless you live north of Edinburgh
[Nexus 7 General] TonyHoyle:
Settings tab, at the bottom, change to 'United Kingdom'

It confused me too!

Edit: My bad.. that didn't fix it.
[Nexus 7 General] NonovUrbizniz:
So after expecting to not get any updates after getting a Label creation confirmation with a tracking number at 630EST friday and NO updates at all over the weekend or this morning... I rechecked at 1130 again today...

She's in Kentucky due for delivery by tomorrow evening.

I'm jazzed.

To whoever asked if it's possible to get it the same day... yes BUT it's HIGHLY unlikely. It's happened to me but it was because it landed overnight and it was already in the truck dispatch center in the morning, so the guy put it on his truck and delivered it a day early. It's not likely though.
[Nexus 7 General] just lou:
Most of the time, if you leave a note on the door to just leave it, they will. At least with UPS. Fed Ex, not so much.
[Nexus 7 General] rmm200:
Look at the IFixit teardown again. The display is a composite unit, and you don't want to mess with it.

Loose clip you could snap back - maybe - but bad adhesive I would send back.
[Nexus 7 General] californiarailroader:
They will with FedEx here too, that's if a signature is required, most things I get don't require one.
[Nexus 7 General] trbloomer:
Sweet, I have no idea about the worst customer service bit, I've only dealt with a few different companies nothing like all of the mobile device manufactures in the world.

But that guarantee that I'm interested in so what happens if they do make a pr statement, money? Play store credit? I mean what are you going to give me if your guarantee is broken?:confused:
[Nexus 7 General] californiarailroader:
Not here, it's actually chily this morning. While we've had some hot days, this summer has been pretty cool so far, tomorrow it'll be 69 with a chance of showers. Our Spring was pretty cold and wet too.
[Nexus 7 General] NonovUrbizniz:
See...

The Unicorns are Coming! The Unicorns are Coming!
[Nexus 7 General] ajg74:
gone quiet again with the UK lot, is it cos everyone is on their way home from work?? Orig ordered an 8gig on the 1st, cancelled and re-ordered a 16gig on the 4ft, no new charges or changes on wallet for me yet!! :(
[Nexus 7 General] just lou:
Then I guess my FedEx driver was just a douche then. The last time I tried, he just left the usual attempted delivery slip.
[Nexus 7 General] jabsys:
Doesn't look like it's going to be today :(
[Nexus 7 General] Evo_Shift:
Oh I thought the issue was just the front part of the tablet, which includes the screen, lifting from the back half. I didn't realize it was the actual glass from the display assembly itself.
[Nexus 7 General] TonyHoyle:
Possibly.. or they've stopped for the evening (it being 6pm).
[Nexus 7 General] skynoir:
ekethr eastern

Bank says transaction pending as of today... no email from google...
[Nexus 7 General] californiarailroader:
Well, we live in a very rural, low crime area too. Being in NYC, I would bet they are pretty wary.
[Nexus 7 General] skappy7:
They're back up for sale on Staples if anyone needs it. Expected delivery is 7/23

Case

I just read this G+ post:

https://plus.google.com/100584856639521800360/posts/GfwWpoZp6sZ

The guy ordered the N7 with a case. Relevant portion:

---

Worried, especially when my card has still yet to be charged, I ask customer service if this is indeed the reason my system is yet to ship or if it is due to ship soon. Unfortunately, my worries are confirmed. I will not receive my order until the cover has come in, which the representative admits no one in customer service has heard any expected date for the cover and the +Google Play storefront won't even let you order it anymore.

---

I sincerely hope this is not the case.
[Nexus 7 General] ynnek63:
you know guys, at least in my case, the delivery guys do pay some attention to the visibility and/or areas they deliver to. In the case of my UPS man, he has told me sometimes he won't leave something if it's big or lot's of people see him deliver it. I'm thankful for that. Especially since my front porch can be seen from 2 streets.
[Nexus 7 General] skappy7:
No pun intended? ;)
[Nexus 7 General] trbloomer:
Doesn't Fedex leave a missed with a place to sign so they can leave it the next day? I'm pretty sure I've done that on a UPS package.
[Nexus 7 General] jotei66:
Rest easy buddy.. I thinks the UK deliveries are starting (or atleast some activity thank heavens!)

My card has been charged and thats atleast some kinda activity, hope you start seeing something on your end soon.. ;)
[Nexus 7 General] gyaku_zuki:
I avoided the 'official' case for this reason. In fact, my case has been with me for 2 weeks now... as I ordered it from a reliable shipper like Amazon ;)

All that I want is to see a tracking email for TNT in the UK - and considering I'm in Northern Ireland and the distribution is from Dublin in Ireland, I hope for a speedy delivery with no water to cross :P
[Nexus 7 General] skynoir:
lol typed image verification into title, no wonder I had to retype...
[Nexus 7 General] NonovUrbizniz:
Nah, do you live in a crap neighborhood? My UPS and Fedex guys both would only leave stuff after I explained I knew the risks in my neighborhood even then there were one or two that the sender REQUIRED a signature, not the shipping method, so they couldn't do it.
[Nexus 7 General] ajg74:
:fingers-crossed:
[Nexus 7 General] shell_c:
Same here, showing a hold which is the first activity since i ordered on the 27th june. Things are moving along in the UK.
[Nexus 7 General] Kas206:
Theres still time. When i got my Xoom i got an email around 8:30 telling me that its shipped. So fingers crossed
[Nexus 7 General] Stromos:
I know this one will start a hellstorm but who cares.

So Google lied about having inventory of the cases and sold us something they don't have. They then charged us for expedited shipping instead of just free shipping but even with 14 dollars in hand they can't split the order into two packages. This has been a wonderful experience for someone transitioning from Apple.
[Nexus 7 General] phantasybm:
Is everyone's nexus shipping from Kentucky?
[Nexus 7 General] heat361:
Mine says it shipping for Louisville Kentucky and I'm in NY didn't some one from NY say theirs is shipping from nj?
[Nexus 7 General] SimPup:
Mine did
[Nexus 7 General] findmike:
Yeah one person SAID he was charged on the 11th in one of the four posts he's made ever. I'm not saying it's not true but I know a lot of people have had issues understanding the authorizations vs the actual charges. Getting charged the 13th/14th would be consistent with what everyone else seems to have experienced and I got a tracking number for mine, I don't see any reason to believe you wouldn't be getting your item in the next few days.

I don't know, it just seems like you've been pissed about this from the time you ordered and are still pissed about it now. I've been happy about it since I placed my order and am still happy about it now. As far as I can tell they are doing just what they said they would, shipping out two to three weeks after I ordered and sending it via two day mail.

Eye of the beholder I guess.
[Nexus 7 General] bertles86:
Haha this whole thread gives me the giggles. Considering I'm in London and all couriers here are giving out warnings for Olympic delays, I'm banking on delivery in September. :-P
[Nexus 7 General] tsupersonic:
I'm also in NY, and mine is also shipping from Louisville, KY
[Nexus 7 General] jotei66:
I gotta admit this stinks (if it turns out to be true) for those poor peeps who ordered the case as well, thankfully I didnt...

And like you, I have "kinda" moved over to Google (and I guess Android) from Apple and I think Google should of taken a little leaf outta Apples book on how to organise a big new product launch, as this buying experience has been very below par...

I guess in defence of Google a little (why the hell am I defending them ??? lol) they lack the experience of Apple when it comes to (1) Customer Care & (2) organising major product launches..

All I am concerned about is that this tablet doesnt arrive when I could of walked down the high street and bought it (less the delivery charge) but hopefully (fingers crossed) this doesnt happen... ** praying ** lol
[Nexus 7 General] tmh900:
Same thing here but it is a little hard to hear how so many that have ordered in July already have tracking info.
[Nexus 7 General] whatsinaname:
montana again

Uggg. still no second charge, ordered july 4th, 16 gig with no accessories. No movement on anything. :( meh.
[Nexus 7 General] phantasybm:
I'm in Los Angeles and mine is shipping from Kentucky
[Nexus 7 General] mikthe20:
Looks like it. My Nexus 7 order has been pushed to the top of the Google Wallet purchase list and shows date of 16/7 - no charge on my credit card yet though but things do indeed seem to be moving. :fingers-crossed:
[Nexus 7 General] Morningstar132:
I doubt very much that the distribution centre is in Dublin, that address is for taxation purposes, the distribution centre is more likely somewhere in the midlands.
[Nexus 7 General] DrHenley:
I think I know what happened

We all thought we were getting some kind of perk because we ordered from the Play store. The $25 Credit? nope, I got that from the one I bought at Sam's on Saturday. The Transformer movie and Borne book? Already watched the movie on the Nexus I bought from Sam's on Saturday.

But there is ONE perk left...Think...

The privilege of getting our tablet automatically linked to our Google Account!!!

And that, my friends, is what is holding up our Play Store tablets, I GUARANTEE!!!
[Nexus 7 General] atl_runner:
Agreed, though I'm not transitioning from Apple, this is seriously disappointing. When all this washes over, I will go after my shipping charges. There is no valid reason to not ship this order in parts. They needed to have a better plan in place. It makes it all look so shoddy. Google is a solid company, but they are so far.. getting this wrong.

for the record, I ordered minutes after the product announcement on June 27th. Ordered a N7, and a case. Have not heard a peep since the N7 started shipping last week. I have patience, but it's wearing out.
[Nexus 7 General] saadi703:
Many people have posted the screen shots of their UPS tracking screen and almost all of them have shipping weight 1.7lbs but mine shows 2.0lbs. I don't know why? I have not ordered any accessory or case. It seems Google might be sending me a free case just as compensation of what happened and I never complained a single time :laugh:
[Nexus 7 General] towelieee22:
ordered the 16 gb on the 5th in NY still nothing
[Nexus 7 General] Vidfreek:
Well there are still plenty of people out there who havent got any information at all and DIDNT order anything but the tablet, myself included, I sent them a contact again about my order status as I never got a reply from Thursday last week for my first attempt. So I'm still waiting for anything that gives me a clue when it will ship and I ordered a case from Amazon which has also magically not shipped yet either and it was supposed to be released last Thursday too....just not too happy all the way around...
[Nexus 7 General] nusairh:
The amount of N7s shipping from KY is too damn high :silly:
[Nexus 7 General] Character Zero:
Add that to the fact that you are unable to cancel. So how they they say its going through the shipping process if they don't have one of the items that is supposed to be shipped? Too bad I can pull the case out of the package when it does come and refuse delivery too. I guess I could sell the N7 that eventually comes (got one from Sam's) but its supposed to be "linked" to my account, so not sure what someone else would see when they turned it on (my email address maybe?).

And it would have been nice if my cancellation rejection email could have had some information, like the accessories were going to take more time, we expect inventory int he next week, if you would pay and extra $5 we can send out the N7. Any communication would have kept me from going to Sam's and I would have waited for my order.
[Nexus 7 General] gbroon:
Could equally be somewhere in europe, I think Asus distribute to europe via Germany or Netherlands. Doesn't bother me if it is had a few deliveries originating in europe and it doesn't seem to make much difference, usually these have been TNT too.
[Nexus 7 General] saadi703:
Mine is also coming from KY
[Nexus 7 General] miketoasty:
Changed shipping from my house to my work 15 minutes away, dear god UPS if you screw this up I will show you no mercy!
[Nexus 7 General] nusairh:
nah.. couldn't be that. I think Google is sending you an additional bundle of bubble wrap :D
[Nexus 7 General] jotei66:
My better half eventually spoke to Google rep called ian and he confirmed that ALL preorders for the UK will be out on delivery by latest Thurday / Friday am and no later.

I realise there is so much dis information and I can't confirm if this is fact or google fiction, but for UK guys, atleast we have some idea..
[Nexus 7 General] saadi703:
Hahahaha, :D

I would be very glad to have that and I would blow every bubble of it.

Jokes apart, has anyone else see 2lbs shipping weight on their acking screen
[Nexus 7 General] Tiredad:
That the apology gift for the delays. Lucky bugger. :p
[Nexus 7 General] bluesnow:
Mine has also been pushed to top of list with a date of 16th and my credit card has been charged. I'm a bit annoyed that i haven't had an email to tell me that my credit card has now been charged. I'm in the UK btw
[Nexus 7 General] Solange82200:
It shouldn't start a hellstorm, I think you're right. And even if people don't agree, I can't see how anyone thinks what you said is unreasonable. I completely agree with you...
