[Nexus 4 General] moneyslap03:
The reason I sort of believe this whole fiasco is because no one received tracking numbers this morning as it has been last week
[Nexus 4 General] sn0warmy:
If the phones get delivered tomorrow I will laugh my ass off because then they will have honored the 3-5 business day delivery they promised and this entire thread will have been for absolutely nothing.
[Nexus 4 General] nbeebe24:
I'm not a legal expert but I'm pretty sure nothing can be done about the devices unless they guaranteed something, which they haven't
[Nexus 4 General] MaxCarnage:
This makes me suspicious. Why are they all having to put people on hold to get new information suddenly? Why are they just now getting the information each time someone calls? Do they stagger their information dissemination? Why don't they just send an email out to everyone at the same time? It sounds like they were given a script to follow to make it sound like it's new information...in fact, now that I think about it, when I talked to a CSR this morning trying in vain to follow up on my "specialist" escalation she told me that they had all just been given information "twenty minutes ago" but it was nothing.

I dunno, that makes me question it.

Agreed, we should at least be getting UPS My Choice Notifications since those are independent of this order process.

Edit: As for no tracking number from Google, I totally believe it. I mean, some people didn't even get order confirmations. If they don't link the UPS shipping back correctly after UPS enters it, we get nothing.

[Nexus 4 General] [hfm]:
All they have to do is refund money and they are not liable for anything. I mean seriously what judge is going to approve a class action for a 2 day shipping delay.

On top of it, the only people that will make out at all on a class action would be the lawyers. This is not class-action worthy.

My order still says pending with a date of the 13th. I really hope these rumors are correct about shipping info tonight as I was told today that it may take up to 3 weeks to get the device even if you're not on backorder. I honestly don't believe anything that comes from any CSR at google play device support after all the interaction I've had with them folks during the last 6 days. I bet the call centers are not really Google employees and are outsourced call center agents because they obviously don't give a crap!
[Nexus 4 General] booyakasha:
FWIW:

He was kinda babbling when I started to push harder, asking more and more questions, and he went off to check something (he said) and stated the information was new. When I asked if he meant SHIPPED or DELIVERED he said delivered.

Take with a biiiiiiig grain of salt. Looks like they were all just briefed on a new line.
[Nexus 4 General] we3monks:
Exact same thing for me though mine was in an email reply.

If you ordered on 11/13, your order is scheduled to arrive tomorrow. If you haven't already received a shipping confirmation email that contains the tracking number, you should receive one by end of day today. However, please note that it can take up to 1 business day for the tracking number to be activated. Rest assured that once you receive your ship confirmation email with your tracking number, it is in the process of shipping for an estimated arrival of Tuesday, Nov. 20.

Though I'm still wondering if this is true considering there is no charge on my credit card, pending or otherwise. Or maybe I'll get lucky and get a free phone :p

lol sadly true.

I am fighting the urge to call in so I can get this email too. I just f***ing know if I don't tomorrow they'll feed me some BS about how if you didn't get the email you weren't getting the delivery. F***!
[Nexus 4 General] 98tiburonfx:
I was just told that they were just told that if you ordered on the 13th and if you haven't received a back order e-mail you should receive your shipment tomorrow. But he also had to ask me if I had received a back order email, which I had but didn't say anything. So I guess I will take it all as a lie until I receive a tracking number. The CSR's name was Garrett.

I just do.... Just think we all may get lucky instead of driving our hopes down... He sounded VERY certain of this info and all the others lacked that, so I am just gonna wait her out and hopefully we get our devices this week or I am cancelling (which I cannot do right now because it says my order can't be cancelled and he couldn't cancel it either) because it's being fulfilled...? Like I said I am not going to call anymore I am just going to wait till Friday and if I don't get it then I dispute the charges and I'm done with the Nexus 4! Simple as that...

[Nexus 4 General] sn0warmy:
Eh, if it's scheduled for delivery it should get there, even after 7:05pm. In my experience, when a package hasn't yet been delivered by 7:00pm and I call the sort facility they tell me that the drivers don't return until they have at least attempted to deliver every package. Sure enough, every time they have told me that the driver shows up minutes later. I've even had one show up around 8:30pm because he had truck issues.
[Nexus 4 General] AIovanna:

You must have hardcore UPS drivers. The ones by me are wusses. They postpone it to the next day if it isn't expected that day. Like if it was 6:30PM, and get off at 7PM, and they haven't gotten to your house they'd put in a note saying something like: "It's dark out, we'll deliver it tomorrow".

Ordered on 8:35 PST , wallet show pending and google play still show " Pre-ordered". CC has a temporary hold and no BO email or tracking. What Limbo level is that?
[Nexus 4 General] FISKER_Q:
No you really haven't. Both your stories have basically concluded we need to "Be patient" instead of whining.

The fact remains that Google didn't just sell out due to high demand, which in itself is bad enough, they've not been following general practice of having an orders be processed on a first come, first serve basis.

They have not uttered a single word of how this is anything but a huge success that they sold so many copies, they have not actually done much to actually inform their customers about why their systems failed to limit sales to what they actually had in stock, why their systems failed to process orders in a chronological order, nor what they're going to do about it in the future.

Now if you had actually covered the issue then you would actually research the subject, get both sides of the story. You've gotten neither, other than a snide editorial probably meant to belittle the complaints of those users that were affected by this.

You've covered this issue when:

1. You've covered the issues (Such as orders not being processed on a first come, first serve basis, the system allowing devices to be "overbooked", and why there is an absolute lack of communication on the matter, etc.)

2. You've gotten some feedback from those are affected (like what their "limbo" status is, etc.)

3. You've requested an official statement from Google.

Until then you're essentially just badmouthing your readers and you're allowing Google to chalk this up as a PR win.

[Nexus 4 General] NickFe:
I'll add the response from CSR (Dylan). They got a note a hour ago that they have problems issuing tracking numbers, but nevertheless all devices ordered on the 11/13 should ship by tonight or tomorrow. I inquired about backorders (the famous three weeks), and he said that tomorrow shipment also include those in backorder. In essence, all should receive devices by tomorrow.

Of course, assuming this isn't just another of those promises.
[Nexus 4 General] MaxCarnage:
I called and got the same thing; got my email so at least if it turns out to be BS I'm still with the "in" crowd. :laugh::good:

EDIT: I wonder if they're having to put people on hold to check with someone else who has a spreadsheet or something...? Nah, I'm reaching. It's all BS lol
[Nexus 4 General] Gigantor66:
You keep waiting... Mine was scheduled to be delivered between 12:45-4:45. I did not receive it until nearly 8:30.

I was worried at first, as I saw a UPS truck make 3 deliveries on one side of my street around 2pm. I spoke with the guy who eventually delivered my device who told me that my house was essentially the dividing line between their two routes, and I was his last stop. You are most likely on the end of their run, and I know how frustrating the wait is. (I made 3-4 calls to UPS CS to make 100% sure my nexus was on their truck.)
[Nexus 4 General] jmejiaa:
I'm sure they are working their ass off to get all these orders out..

We'll go back to loving you soon Google, I promise.
[Nexus 4 General] [hfm]:
Oh great,

1. first it's everyone on the 13th

2. then it's everyone on the 13th that didn't get a BO email.

It's only been 30 minutes since we starting hearing #1.. now we're at #2 already.. it seems MANY people got that BO email, so are they hedging already? Sigh..
[Nexus 4 General] captaincool9:
My date hasn't changed and I have received no updates from google at all even though I've called them a lot! I figure the greasy wheel gets the grease or gets their order mysteriously cancelled!

[Nexus 4 General] devcurious:
That's during "off-peak" times.

During the holidays, it behoves them to get everything off of their "fuller-than-normal" trucks, the same day it gets put on there. If not, the ones they didn't deliver, will back on their trunk the next day, along with the regular "fuller-than-normal" load for that day.

Also, UPS drivers don't have a shift, or a time that their day ends. Their day ends when they deliver (or attempt to deliver) everything on their truck. They can work as late as they want to, as long as the hours match up with the load they had on their truck. They can't have a truck with like 5 packages on it, stay out all day, and claim they were delivering.
