Well, honestly the fact is that there's not a lot of new information and a lot of people have bonded in this thread so it's natural for OT stuff to pop in every now and then. It's not unhealthy; it keeps everyone together while they wait for updates. Trust me, when something new happens this thread will explode again and OT stuff will get snuffed out for rumors and screencaps. :cool:

This happened to me on the day of order. My CC had a new expiration date I got an email asking me to update payment info. Bank of America flagged it as a suspicious transaction and robo-called me to verify. BoA then said to try again in half an hour which with the status of the Play Store that morning I didn't trust OK could get a phone. I entered a different card and got my order finally accepted and another email from Google. The initial declined email came through at the time Wallet now shows as my order time so it did not push me back.

I think that's the point of this thread, keep all the rumour, speculation and off topic in one lightly moderated thread. instead of spending ages closing numerous threads it all ends up here. There are the country specific threads that are slower moving and less ot, they may involve discussions on carriers and third party stores but i'm sure they will also have play store updates if there is any.

I like this thread personally.

I just wish I could detach myself like he did. I would have been a lot happier this last week. :good:

I totally agree. Create a new thread about people on backorder and kill this disaster of a thread.
[Nexus 4 General] WhenBearsReign:
Yeah I don't understand how they haven't informed the CSRs on where to direct people with these questions. They should at least be able to direct you to these "specialists" so you can communicate with them instead of making the CSRs the middleman.
[Nexus 4 General] dipdeol:
I'm confused. Did your initial order end up going through? Did you add a new card, or update the old card? Did you have to respond to google to tell them that you added a new card?
[Nexus 4 General] chronus719:
I actually really do like the flow of this thread. Useful information when there is any (and an awesome OP that continues to update the first post even though he's gotten his phone), and bantering with one another when nothing is really going on. If you don't like the off-topic parts, be thankful there's a good OP and check the first post, and then leave us be.

Come on.... bro..

They had 2 generic answers they would give out and to be more efficient they would just ask you : BO email? You answer yes, they give you the BO answer, you.answer no, they give you the "in a couple days" answer...

If you called back (and had a bo email but lied) and said "you said it woulship in a couple days" THEN they would check.

[Nexus 4 General] UCFJake:
Yes the initial order went through after I updated my payment info. (Pending transaction appeared on the new card)

I added a new CC.

The declined email they sent had a link that went directly to Google Wallet where it prompted me to correct my payment information or add a new method of payment. It actually happened three times because I tried to fix the expiration date twice (flagging BoA to temp freeze the CC) before adding the new card.

Hope this helps!

Even our off topicness is useful, people will learn what cases are on sale, where to get them, find out where to buy the lg wireless charging pad that I bought last night and already shipped, find out that I'm a shemale, come on, what more do you want!? :)

[Nexus 4 General] DowntownJeffBrown:
So I got a 8gb and tried to cancel my 8gb I got on backorder on but the cancel link won't work it says I had to cancel within the first hour. Here's the thing I canceled my debit card and got a new one issued so that they won't charge me. What do you think will happen because it seems like they send out orders then charge your credit card a few days after its been shipped? I even called customer support and all they did was tell me I would get an email from a "specialist" I did finally get an email today from a supposed specialist with the same damn link to cancel as I used from my initial confirmation email.

Yea right, this thread has provided hours of entertainment whilst sharing my angst with other limbo'ers. Even found out about a $599 GN2 here that I have been thinking about pulling the trigger on since no one has received any reports on shipments. Not to mention accessories and such. you just have to know how to pick your way thru the muck.

It

s more of a community than an information source at this point, because THERE'S NO NEW INFORMATION. Once anything solid comes in, you will definitely see a shift in the tone of the conversation, but right now it acts as a useful place to vent frustration or connect with other people in your same situation. Honestly, check the OP if you want more information, as it's updated with the type of information you would be looking for.

It must be your first time on a "Play Orders and Shipping" thread. This is how they all are. If you're looking for relevant information (the kind which doesn't exist at the moment; thus the off topic nature of this thread) then try to go find it somewhere else. But don't come back to this thread when it receives the relevant information first when it does, in fact, turn up. Because it will and this thread will cover it before any other tech site or blog has a chance to do a write-up on it.

Anyone get any shipping info today?
[Nexus 4 General] Richieboy67:
A CSR replied to an email today I sent on the 20th!!! He had the nerve to tell me he escalated my case, I was still on back order and he knew nothing more.

It really bothered me that he said he escalated my case after not even responding for over a week. I usually like some of the csr's. I know they are just doing a job but I really felt like he was just blowing smoke up my arse.

Does he think the fact that he tells me a meaningless word matters if it changes nothing or if he cannot even tell me anything knew at all? I am very irritated today with this whole thing. Seriously, would it be so hard for Google to tell us when their shipment is coming in or something?

I have been waiting and hoping for some info for days and I am so disappointed today to hear nothing new from anyone.

On top of it this thread is really turning to crap. It is just my opinion but perhaps yahoo chat might be better for some pig the topics you guys want to talk about. While I don't mind some off topic ranting I surely have no desire to read about she males or hairy body parts. I really do not think Xda is the place for that crap.

Dam, I thought that would make me feel better... Nope

So I was picking up my dry cleaning and some pain meds for my son who had surgery today, and in the strip mall parking lot are 3 ups trucks and two budget rental trucks. They were loading packages from the budget moving bands into the ups trucks. I guess when your fleet is full you do whatever it takes to get the crap out to be delivered. Now hurry up and break down those pallets so I can get my phone! Let's hope Google included the shipping slip with the load this time.

Hi Lester,

Thanks for contacting us today. I apologize for the delay in getting your device to you. We are working to ship all items in your order as quickly as possible within the 3 week time-frame. You will receive an email confirmation as soon as your order is processed and on its way.

Please let me know if you have further questions regarding this issue.

Thanks,

I've got mad respect for those guys at UPS. They are always hustling and personally I've never had a problem shipping anything with them. Those dudes run your package right up to your door then haul ass back to their truck.

Trashville is a veteran!
[Nexus 4 General] James BlackHeron:
So by saying that the "majority" of all orders fall into L3 are you saying that Goog oversold the N4 by more than 100%? Is there substantial evidence for this using the data collected by the various folks running databases of information on orders?

If this is the case then I doubt that all the BO's will be fulfilled with one more shipment. I'm pretty sure Google knows how many folks are on BO and how fast they will get more phones. But if there are THAT many BO's it lends credence to the theory that there will be multiple shipments coming in with each one only getting a small portion of the BO's taken care of. But this also means there will be a shipment now and others leading up to the final shipment on the 6th for the "deadline" of shipping as the BO email set out.

I wonder if they are going to still ship them in FIFO order? Those of us who are earlier may get the first shipment, depending on how large it is.

[Nexus 4 General] dirtyhamster73:
When they take the shipping off, and they will, it'll be minus $13.99 for me too, so....whatever that comes to. I sold my Gnex this morning for $350, so the N4 will only cost me $75...roughly. Ebay took $32 in fees. Sons of biscuits.

Hmm, starting to lose hope... Though nothing really went out by this time last Monday, the reps were talking about packages going out even before that.

any update on when Google will be re-upping the Play store?

Are they trying to MASS produce 1 million units, ship them out and open Play Store all at once? I couldnt even order one =(
[Nexus 4 General] Plexicle:
Unfortunately, yeah, there is substantial evidence that most of the people who ordered did get the back-order e-mail. This leads us to believe that "overwhelming demand" might be an understatement. I personally do not believe that all of these will be taken care of in the next large batch. In-fact, I believe that even some of the later orders that day have gotten a second back-order e-mail, extending the 3-week period. I can't nail a confirmation on that one, yet, which is why I haven't written it down.
[Nexus 4 General] MauriceZ:
This is craaazy. I´m working on my master thesis and all I do is check the play store every 10 min. Im blaming Google for the grade I will be getting.

The seller is bumping up the price because there are only two phones left. When they had more, the price was much less crazy (the first time I saw it, it was selling for $600 I believe).

Damn, damn, damn.

Now I am hoping for no Google emails tonight. No news is good news..

Perhaps there is going to need to be a new Limbo level for those with the new BO email if/when this can be confirmed. Poor bastards. I hope it isn't me!

HABEEB IT.

tl;dr, you had an anus burger earlier.

No, even if it were broken down to:

Limbo 1 order fulfillment: 30% of orders

Limbo 2 order fulfillment: 30% of orders

Limbo 3 order fulfillment: 40% of orders

LL3 could still be the majority of orders (edit: couldn't it?). That would mean they would have sold 40/100 to LL3ers, making it an oversell of 40%. Or something, I don't care to pinpoint the math beyond pointing out the obvious.
