Looks like Chandan meant to say is "not chargeable" instead of "is chargeable," meaning Google's attempt to authorize your card failed. They go ahead and place the order on hold for 7 days to give you the opportunity to update your credit card info.

---------- Post added at 12:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:47 PM ----------

Leave a note on your door with the tracking number to UPS and say that you are refusing the package. As long as it's refused you will not be charged. It can take up to 14 days for Google to receive and process the returned refuse delivery phone, so Google may try to charge in the meantime and receive a decline from your CC due to unavailable funds.

My friend got an order in two days ago that was cancelled to. When she called she was told that they were unable to honor her order due to stock unavailability and then the next day Google Play showed "Out of Stock." That could be the same reason they canceled yours. Sucks :/

Good luck! I hope so! Keep us posted!

---------- Post added at 12:56 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:55 PM ----------

Same thing happened to me, they were basically re-authorizing my card and placing my funds on hold over and over again, which is why my dates changed, yet they hadn't sent me jack squat. How hard is it to authorize the card when they're about to actually ship the damn phone.?

You have lots of friends with N4's we know where all the stock went. I kid kid :D::p:what:

LOL Actually just about everyone I know had their thirsty tongues out ready to order a N4 this holiday season, family members, coworkers, neighbors, you name it, they're all trying to get their hands on this phone. Five of my friends have received theirs so far and several others are hanging in limbo. My friend Becca had already ordered one but got a second order in 2 days ago hoping that she'd get at least one of them. But joke was on her, Google canceled her 2nd order so she's forced to wait and see if she ever gets her first order. Customer service says it will ship January 16th, she's pissed cause she ordered on the 27th around 4 pm and our other friends ordered in December and have their phones. I'm keeping my head poked in the forum so that I can update my friends on any possible movement because they're not on the XDA forums so I'm keeping plugged in for the team lol! :D I myself am waiting on my 2nd order, which Google refused to let me cancel. I received my first one a few days ago (Dec 14th) but no word on my 2nd order.
[Nexus 4 General] DowntownJeffBrown:
Lol all my friends are like what is that phone and the girls say "its so pretty" and I'm like isn't she I love my Sexy Nexi. Everyone at work just knows if they have a phone to sell come to me. Good luck with everything:D

Alot of peoples December 4th orders are changing to December 15th, mine is still December 4th, and no charges on the card (as far as I know, have used a relatives credit card)
[Nexus 4 General] isentropy:
Another 13 November order that I've been waiting forever for them to give me some kind of feedback to what's going on. After threatening a formal complaint about one of the CSRs being continually misleading, I got the following response. It's disingenuous because although I did have a failed payment because of their appalling website, it was followed up with a new card payment around five minutes later, which is the one I've got the receipt for.

At no point until this email did they tell me that my order was cancelled, despite having almost daily contact with them for the two weeks preceding. I truly do not understand what is the point of their CSRs and so-called specialists.

I have no idea what the order on 5 December is.
[Nexus 4 General] DowntownJeffBrown:
That's all messed up my friend. Well hopefully u do have a order from the 5th that u will get fulfilled. Man Google has made a mess.

LL3 13th - Stuck on: 6th December 'Pre-Ordered'. No email, No CC Charge. Zilch. Nada, Nothing, NOOOO.
[Nexus 4 General] ImHavenHart:
The November 13th orders must be the most frustrating of all because that was the first round of orders. I don't get why Google put the nexus back up for sale on Nov 27th without having fulfilling all of the Nov 13th orders first. It just doesnt seem to make any sense to me. Sorry to hear youre still waiting :(
[Nexus 4 General] [hfm]:
You could always sell your friends and family all the units you don't want since you hate it and can't stand having one.
[Nexus 4 General] isentropy:
I'm not hugely hopeful on getting it any time soon. Follow-up email from our not very knowledgable Clarence the senior manager:

The only options they've given me are 1) wait an indeterminate amount of time or 2) cancel my order. It's genuinely astonishing that those are my options after they've not managed to fulfil my order after what tomorrow will be five weeks.

I am glad it wasn't in PM. You are right. Just another person trying to make a profit on a phone. It's a shame because there are SO many people who truly want this phone, and can't have it because of people like that.

I have your back on this, Jackson Heights. :)
[Nexus 4 General] ImHavenHart:
The December 4th orders that are changing to December 15th were for 16 GB though. I don't know of any 8GB that recently changed to December 15th but I could have missed a few responses. You're waiting for an 8GB right? My fingers are crossed that there will be some shipping notices sent out tomorrow *fingers crossed*
[Nexus 4 General] mk92595:
Still hoping I get a tracking number tomorrow.
[Nexus 4 General] thanamesjames:
Just out curiosity, of everyone still waiting how many are waiting on 8gb models? I feel like google must have sold 5. I never hear anyone talk about them.
[Nexus 4 General] kelmar13:
16
[Nexus 4 General] ImHavenHart:
There's a few people here waiting for 8GBs but I haven't seen too many of them mention any movement. Has there been any change to your order date or cc authorization date?
[Nexus 4 General] foxracinglarry:
Still waiting here, 8GB ordered on the 27th 4-5 weeks. My order time was UTC 1:59PM. Only movement I had was changed to "pre-order" status.
[Nexus 4 General] jakejm79:
I got my 8GB within a week and a half of ordering it.

I can't believe that people are still trying to purchase them through Google, the 2nd hand (although still brand new and sealed) market seems to have fallen and they are selling for about a $25-40 premium in my area.
[Nexus 4 General] thanamesjames:
No changes made at all, except when everyone moved from pending to preorder mine did as well. I'm still listed as Nov 27th, and I haven't had a charge since the initial authorization charge. My feeling is that Google probably breaks near even on the 8s, while making somewhere around 30-40 dollars more on the 16s, so they intentionally made the shipping time higher for the 8s to increase revenue.

---------- Post added at 11:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:53 PM ----------

eh, I don't exactly live in NYC. Craigslist has had only one listed in the last two weeks in my area. And it was at a 100 dollar markup. Plus I'd rather order from google in case I have to rma.
[Nexus 4 General] ven4545:
one 16 and one 8 , both updated dec 15
[Nexus 4 General] thanamesjames:
My order time was 12:37 EST, seems like the people who got them early ordered in the first 20 mins. I tried but couldn't get through for a while.

---------- Post added at 11:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:57 PM ----------

I see your 16 in your sig, was your 8 part of the same order?
[Nexus 4 General] ven4545:
yes same order :)
[Nexus 4 General] jellydoughnut29:
Still waiting on my 8g....got a 4-5 week estimate.
[Nexus 4 General] ImHavenHart:
That's a thought. But I think a lot more people ordered the 8GB, it sold out way before the 16GB did, so they probably had way more orders, making the wait times longer. But then again, perhaps Google produced less 8GB than they did 16GB? I noticed whenever I went to the Google Play store the 16GB was the one that popped up first, so it seems like they wanted people to get the 16GB over the 8GB. Hopefully you'll get some good new tomorrow!
[Nexus 4 General] jakejm79:
I followed them on Ebay for a while and there were plenty going for under $450 shipped and sealed. If you live in a state with sales tax that's only about a $50 - $60 yes you can't RMA (how many units have really needed to be RMAed anyway) it easily, but it is still covered under the 1 year warranty, sucks to pay a little more, but time is money an how much does the phone depreciate while you wait 6+ weeks for it to possibly come in.

[Nexus 4 General] ImHavenHart:
The Three UK off contract price isn't that bad.
[Nexus 4 General] DowntownJeffBrown:
I bought one on CL and its was a great buy. The extra money was worth cutting my wait time down. The playstore order from the 13th of nov went to my fiance as an xmas gift. And like u said its still covered under the 1 year manufacturer warranty u just lose the RMA option. Well kinda if u can get the original buyer to RMA it for u which is why I got the sellers phone number name and address. I got him to show me his license and write me a written receipt with the date I bought it, his name, address, phone number and that I bought it at its original price +shipping (Even though I paid more).

So I was given two options from a rep just now on the phone. I can wait or get a refund. The false hope I got on Friday about a manager trying to push my rma through on Friday was just that, false....they are out of stock and that's that. If I picked the refund, which I really wanted to do, I probably would have just bought another phone, so I said "wait it is, I guess".

Not that we get any info from them, but I feel like if I don't call at least once a week that I would fall through the cracks...only reason why I called twice today was because the first time the call got disconnected. can't believe they are letting these managers lie to customers and say whatever just to appease us.

[Nexus 4 General] jakejm79:
Yeah I took a $30 less profit on selling my OXL (since prices dropped once the OXL+ came out) by waiting for an 8GB direct from Google.

I have ordered 2 (well 3 but not opened the 3rd) and neither has had any issue, so I view the RMA thing as a moot point.

Not getting hopes up, because I saw a 12/12 pre-order for a 16GB get pre-charged to CC for over 48 hrs on business days and go nowhere.

'supposed to', no, but the speculation is at a peak because of the activity (letter from the UK boss, almost all play stores have both devices sold out, the majority of us having 12/15 updates with pending CC charges, etc, etc), so there are lots of raised hopes for shipping confirmations to roll out Monday in previous posts.

[Nexus 4 General] mahoney1978:
Yep - Waiting on an 8GB model. Order placed on the 27th (although Google received order on the 29th?).

Also - strange but true, I was able to order an 8GB last Wednesday on the 13th December? It was via a saved page in my Blackberry browser? And funnily enough, that has been charged in full on my Credit Card (confirmed by the bank this morning) and Google also emailed me back to say that they recieved the order? No idea what is going on here, as technically the 8GB has been off sale since the 28th November, but it allowed me to finish and pay for transaction on the 13th December (thats15 days after it went 'off sale'.

2nd order shows as 'completed' in Google Play orders? Anyone help explain what this shoudl mean (i.e. it's not 'pre-ordered' like my first purchase).

Thanks
[Nexus 4 General] smadger:
I'm trying to work out our next move and need some info.

IF the earliest shipping started was today (Monday 17th Dec), and the charges don't officially get called by Google until shipping starts, at what time would peoples bank account start showing as a full transaction from the Play store. Any ideas?

Yes, I asked the question twice to the credit card company and they confirmed it's a charge, NOT a pre-auth.

Your question sent me looking to my bank account, and oddly enough, the pending charge for the 8GB phone is gone. It was there for just around 24 hours.

The pending charge for the 16GB I ordered on 12/12 is still there (tried the lotto, waited 48 hrs for shipping, got nothing and canceled that order so as not to get an unneeded extra). I understand it can take a week for them to disappear, but for them to drop off after only around 24 hrs? Anyone else?

A order is considered complete, when Google charges your card for the full amount (not a pre-auth) and passes your info on to UPS-SCS for shipping, you should be provided with a tracking number within 24 hours. It will update to 'Shipped' when tracking info is provided.

You're welcome, and thanks! Love the bumper...it just looks like its part of the phone. My power button is hard to feel for, so since the power/volume buttons are on the bumper it just makes its easier to push in and feel for.

Thanks for letting me know about the last pic....I'm oblivious to things like that, and a little naive. I posted a screen shot the other day with my address/phone number...haaahaa, didnt realize it made in the shot.
[Nexus 4 General] jakejm79:
Not sure what you are referring to other than the fact I have had experience with 3 separate orders from the play store, several people mentioned a while ago that we update our signatures to reflect the status of our order(s) so it was easier to keep track of things.

But the fact remains that once any order in the play store is marked as complete means that you have been charged in full for the order and the payment was successful. If the item needs to be shipped that will follow.
