When will everyone figure out that CSR's everywhere, google, amazon, don't know anything and are just there for the illusion of helping you. They have no power, or knowledge. They either give you canned responses or lies to make you feel better. That's it. The system their company uses either works or doesn't work good, and is out of their hands to stop orders or make them ship. You're lucky if they are even in the same country from where your item is shipping from :laugh:

The same goes for great companies like Newegg that ship your order the same day, and you pretty much always get it in 2-3 days even if it's ground shipping. Soon as the order is processed their CSR can't stop or cancel it. I've tried a few times 10 minutes after I realized I didn't want to order what I had. "Sorry, they order info was already sent to the warehouse".
[Nexus 4 General] vita10gy:
My choice just flat out says it alerts the day before delivery. I didn't see anywhere where an alert as soon as they have a package was an option, though that might be part of premium.

I think another point of confusion is what sold out first 8gb or 16gb..... who is waiting.

I am an 8gb Limbo order at 8:44am

"Thank you for your recent purchase on Google Play. Due to overwhelming demand, your Nexus 4 is on backorder and is expected to ship within three weeks. We’ll send you a notification when your order has shipped and will credit the shipping charges."

Was just told that, if I'm not on back order and processing is finished next Tuesday, I still do not qualify for the free shipping. Now that's a bunch of crap if you ask me.
[Nexus 4 General] Pedro Peguero Jr.:
Guys, guys.... can we all agree on one thing though? Customer Service from Google play is USELESS. You call one guy, says your backordered.. you call another, says your shipping. Why bother what the reps say at this point. If you don't get a UPS truck in front of your house tomorrow or Monday, just officially admit the fact that you are screwed and were on backorder.

I honestly feel "safe" right now in LIMBO, because with no BACK ORDER email, I feel like my Nexus has shipped... but at the same time I feel like the shipping confirmation emails is whats on delay right now.

All we can do is pray to the almighty Nexus gods that can magically accept our burnt offerings of our old phones..

....PLEASEEEEEEEEEEEE

What pisses me off the most is that I didn't even order a Nexus 4. Or a 32 gigabyte Nexus 10. I ordered the 16 gigabyte Nexus 10, which is still available on the Google Play store, yet I'm still in the middle of the limbo bull****. If the product didn't even sell out wouldn't you think they could honor the whole two day processing two day shipping? If I have to wait out the weekend to get this I'm going to be pissed.
[Nexus 4 General] Geo411m:
I just got off the phone with google and they basically told me this. He said "no news is good news" :eek:

I'm not even gonna read what anyone says that CSR says anymore... There has been so many different conflicting statements coming from them. They are just going to say what you wanna hear at this point because I'm sure they're tired of the same questions being asked.

On a side note... How are people getting emails from UPS before even getting the shipping info from Google?

[Nexus 4 General] joeski27:
by the way, by "limbo" I'm assuming we mean that no shipping confirmation, but possibly a BO email, but then still listed as Pending and scheduled to ship 11/15?

Ordered: 16gb @ 8:34am

No confirmation email. No communication from them what so ever after dropping $350 come to think of it.Order is there in wallet of course. Says the Nov 15 shipping thing.

Just called Google and a guy that sounds like he at least got an audition for Bill &Ted's Excellent Adventure basically said they're incompetent and that it may ship out tomorrow or the next day and that I'd definitely get an email when it did. In other words he told me to pick my nose for at least 2 more days and if I don't hear from them about my $350 purchase to call again and hope they're not as clueless. Didn't press any further, it was obvious none of them would be able to tell me anything useful or accurate, much less do anything about it.
[Nexus 4 General] Mr.Fahrenheit:
You know, at this point only one thing concerns me and makes me RAGE.

[Nexus 4 General] Luxferro:
Nope, my bumper is a separate order. 2 separate orders in total. 1 for phone, 1 for bumper, so neither could hold the other up.
[Nexus 4 General] dirtyhamster73:
Ordered my 16gb at 5:01 est (only ordered 1 N4 and no bumper)and received the confirmation email immediately right after.... Yesterday I called Google to see if the order really went through, it did, and he said that they " hoped" to ship it on the 15th and if I didn't get a tracking number by today to call. Well, I didn't need to call because I received an email stating I'm back ordered for 3 weeks.... Odd thing is, my order doesn't say back ordered, it still says "pending" with a shipping date of 15th. I highly doubt it'll take 3weeks, bet after Thanksgiving people will start getting them. The bright side is now I can find a case and good screen protector instead of just grabbing anything :)
[Nexus 4 General] leets4uc3:

[Nexus 4 General] gnatman:
Interesting idea, although I ordered on 16GB at 8:37 PST for myself with a bumper, and a 16GB at 11am PST without the bumper for my Mom. I got the backorder email, but no shipping info, all purchases are pending, just sitting here in limbo on both.

What's up everybody I ordered 16gb at 9:34:33 mt according to the purchase my checkout was super fast and had no problems I have never received a backordered email or shipping so I called google an hour ago and the dude said if your back ordered you should have already got the email else you should get the shipping confirmation tomorrow or so he said

And typically how long does it take to get something from MyUPS? I just signed up about 15 minutes ago.
[Nexus 4 General] Geo411m:
Someone mentioned that ups my choice was sending out the info one day behind and I believe they're right.

I placed an order for some MMA gloves and received the notification the day after UPS received my order. Its possible some people may have had their packages shipped but UPS my choice hasn't updated yet. Well let's hope anyway.
[Nexus 4 General] jbatu:
The funny thing is the csr said if i got the back order email im on backorder but my status is not as backordered and as pending and estimated shipping 11/15 and the reps didnt even know if i got the email they had to ask me. If google cant keep track of their own status's what kind of company is this.
[Nexus 4 General] lnfound:
What else do you think they're doing? If someone in charge of this thing wanted information spread down every CSR would tell each caller the same thing. Obviously they don't know either.
[Nexus 4 General] jkrohn:
UPS My Choice just alerted me a shipping label has been created for my address with delivery for the 19th. Nice free service.

About 12hour difference on last nights amazon order. Then again ups may notify at a different step in the process then when amazon declares an expected tracking number.
[Nexus 4 General] dirtyhamster73:
So I wonder why some people who received the back ordered email have a status of " back ordered" while others, like myself, still have " pending" with a estimate shipping of today? I know for sure if anyone is suppose to say back ordered it should be me, I ordered very late in the day after starting at 11:30am est (I got nothing but error messages and a disappearing cart for hours).. Order happened at 5pm est.
[Nexus 4 General] djsaad1:
Just an update on mine.

I ordered 2 16gb n4's at 10:35 central and haven't received a shipping or back order email from google. But I did receive tracking info for ups my choice showing that both will get here tomorrow.
[Nexus 4 General] megapixle:
Looks like pretty much everybody who ordered in the first 20 minutes is in the black hole known as Google Limboland. Meanwhile the slackers :) who dropped the ball and ordered late are sleeping tight tonight knowing a shiny Nexus will arrive at their doorstep tomorrow. My 6 year old could have put together a better order fulfillment system for his 1st grade science fair.
[Nexus 4 General] Geo411m:
That's my point, it's possible that orders were placed but we haven't been notified yet.
[Nexus 4 General] frankied22:

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 it's way.

How long between signing up for MyUPS and getting an alert? Did you get a bo/shipping email from El Google?
[Nexus 4 General] smith10:
Did Google send you a shipment notification or is this the first you've heard of yours being shipped?
[Nexus 4 General] Luxferro:
Go to the prefencences page. It shows you the alert settings.

https://www.ups.com/pea/preferences...turnTo=https://wwwapps.ups.com/mcdp?loc=en_US

Your current delivery alert settings are displayed below. Select Edit to update your alert settings.
Day Before Delivery Reminder:	E-mail	xxx@yahoo.com
Morning of Delivery Alert:	E-mail	xxx@yahoo.com
Confirmation of Delivery:	Not Set
Delivered to UPS Retail Location Alert:	E-mail	xxx@yahoo.com

So it seems it will only alert you the day before a delivery. so if it scheduled from monday, then you wouldn't get an alert tonight. That's just my guess based on how I'm interpreting the settings page. This is my first time trying it.
