It may be my mistake, I was looking at this page

http://www.store-3.co.uk/3-unlimited-data-one-plan.html

I didn't notice the "selected" part of "selected sim-only tariffs" I was under the impression it was on all tariffs and could have sworn I saw someone over at HotUKDeals say they had gotten the £6.90 tariff with the £3 all you can eat.

Sorry if it does turn out I was wrong. :/

Although I've just found this... "for all customers"...

And here it says on "any of our pay monthly plans"

[Nexus 4 General] MrYiff:
Ah, that makes more sense then I guess, I think I have found the contract I will be using then!
[Nexus 4 General] Turbotab:
3: Essential Internet SIM 600 12 months.

12-month contract

600 minutes

5000 texts (pretty much unlimited)

1GB data

£12.90/month

Nobody seems to have mentioned cashback!

Quidco is offering £50 cashback on the deal above, taking the monthly cost to £8.73:D

There are plenty of other networks with offers on quidco or topcashback. Although these cashbacks are not 100% guaranteed, as long as you use a browser free of noscript / adblock and with the cache and cookies cleared, I've never had a problem with tracking, and then being paid out.

If you are light user then Quidco is offering £41.67 cashback, on the Essential Internet SIM 200 12 months @ £6.90, with Quidco this drops to £3.42 per month:victory:

200 minutes

5000 texts

500MB data

12 months contract

http://www.quidco.com/three/
[Nexus 4 General] MrYiff:
Nice find! I had totally forgot to even check Quidco for deals, now I can get the 200 minute deal for £6.90, then pay £3 for data *and* then claim £41 cashback!
[Nexus 4 General] TeRRa4:
Cheers for this! Added it to the original post with credit to you for the tip-off. :D
[Nexus 4 General] TubbyHamster:
Yeah I think its changed my mind back to leaving giffgaff and joining 3... I have quidco, why not take advantage. Good post bud. :)
[Nexus 4 General] Michealtbh:
Might do the same myself
[Nexus 4 General] everett_psycho:
Quidco+three is a mad combination, of you want data and don't mind changing your phone number (ideal for tablets or laptops) you can actually turn a small profit by getting the preloaded payg sim for £10 and then getting the £12.50 cashback. When you run out do it again as they haven't stipulated 1 claim per person. If it works at home I won't say no to ayce data for under £7 a month
[Nexus 4 General] Rusty!:
I'm thinking of moving from GG to Three, however not 'til next month so I can get my remaining bit of payback :D
[Nexus 4 General] TeRRa4:
I wish the cashback applied to renewed contracts rather than just brand new ones. :P

I might ask Three for the Ultimate Internet SIM 600 12-month contract (600 mins, 5000 txt, unlimited internet) for ~£11.50/month rather than £15.90/month when I renew in April. It'll be my second renewal with them, so I might be able to push it that far. Possibly. Haha.
[Nexus 4 General] Turbotab:
At the end of your contract ask to convert your sim to a PAYG, then get the contract via Quidco and port your old number with a PAC code.
[Nexus 4 General] leerobson99:
Has anyone ordered a nexus 4 yet either through play store or otherwise.
[Nexus 4 General] everett_psycho:
Nope, play store is t taking g orders yet and quite frankly you'd be mad to pay the prices the per orders elsewhere are charging
[Nexus 4 General] DjeMBeY:
Deal from Three is The Best for heavy Data users IMHO. I'm on The One Plan and no complains ( in some areas week signal indoor but it's only because they do 3G only no 2G for calls in bad areas) I've tried GG but my data was suspended after 1 month because of high usage!!! There's no such a thing with Three ( some months I've used 100GB+ )

Now in many places new DC-HSDPA (up to 42Mbps) is available. Many ppl reported speeds up to 20Mbps on DC enabled phones (iPhone 5 or SGN2 LTE).

Pairing sim only deal from Three with N4 is Best Solution!! The £9.90 deal is unbeaten, 2 years cost just £237.60+£279.00=£516.60 (incl. N4 16GB and Truly Unlimited Data and almost Unlimited TxT)!!!! It's less than any of Top phones alone!!! Beat that !!!

Ps. SpeedTest from my SGS2 with HSDPA+ only... ;)
[Nexus 4 General] Rusty!:
That's not HSPA only, that's HSPA+ (the icon gives it away).
[Nexus 4 General] J5N:
If anyone has an extra 16gb nexus 4, I'll buy off them including shipping and any other fees for purchasing! (UK)
[Nexus 4 General] knowlesy:
just spoken to carphone warehouse metro centre and I quote "we have sim free nexus 4's in stock but there is no price, its usually like this with a new phone as it compares to stock levels for selling them on contract" I pushed further saying how does that matter surely you know when theyll be released, she said she doesn't know and it could be any time days, weeks :(
[Nexus 4 General] madwyn:
I think this is the so called "Hunger Marketing", all the customers are tricked.
[Nexus 4 General] Larac:
I guess now is the time where every evening I have to save vs willpower.

Wait for the next batch or pick up something like a HOX as my tytnII is well it just is. On the plus side I get a new company phone on Monday, here's hoping it's a note II/

I mean I've lost 4 foursquare mayorships in the 9 days since I sold my atrix.
[Nexus 4 General] Kas206:
If anyone is interested in selling an extra one in London I'll take it.

With shipping costs of course.
[Nexus 4 General] 12078215:
Wish this thing would turn up already!
[Nexus 4 General] wolfboy1984:
Don't worry guys. Even Hitler struggled to get one...

[Nexus 4 General] Michealtbh:
Now available with a Three contract at CPW. Better than o2 but still quite expensive

http://www.carphonewarehouse.com/buy/LG_NEXUS_4_3N078_FCONH
[Nexus 4 General] italia0101:
Even if they do sell it sim free ( CPW) , isnt it going to be like £400... instead of £279
[Nexus 4 General] warr3n:
I reckon they will be the same price regardless of whose selling it (Play or CPW etc).

After all all the other Nexus devices cost the same whether you are buying from Play or a retailer.

In my view CPW are holding back on SIM free in the hope that get some gullible punters signing up to a new overpriced 24 month contract. The price of the SIM free Nexus 4 is a game changer and will hopefully contribute toward the demise of the long and expensive contracts that have dominated the mobile phone market for too long,
[Nexus 4 General] Audioboxer:
On the delivery routes for the N4, someone would have received one by now if they were coming today - Carrying this thought on from the UK Shipping thread where people were saying N7's were arriving today. (that topic is now locked)

It's now midday and no reports of any being delivered.
[Nexus 4 General] TonyHoyle:
I'm not sure they dominate any more - I read PayG is the majority now and Sim Only is extremely popular as well. The companies killed the golden goose by starting to insist on insane lengths like 24 month terms - which few people are prepared to commit to.

OTOH EE have made their new Sim Only contracts have 12 month minimum terms... I reckon they'd have minimum terms on PayG if they thought they could get away with it!
[Nexus 4 General] jofullalove:
I think you are right, I predict them to start dropping tomorrow, continuing Friday and Monday. I don't think it matters what time the device was ordered from the store, seems they are just shipping out randomly...
[Nexus 4 General] italia0101:
Wasnt there a link a few weeks back , it showed the CPW inventory and the simfree pirce of £390... other retailers are selling it sim free like o2 , but its like £450
[Nexus 4 General] Shodney:
Well TNT just pulled up outside my house (yay!) and went next door (boo!), so if they are delivered by TNT I guess mine isn't coming today. Of course, some of the help pages on Google say that they use DHL so I suppose theres still a chance. Not holding out much hope though, just hope it comes Thursday latest because I'm going to be away until next Wednesday after that :crying:

My Play orders says "completed", but it's still showing as "pending" on Wallet.
[Nexus 4 General] jofullalove:
I read somewhere that someone spoke to Google and the status on the store and wallet (pending, complete, delivery 15th)etc... are to be taken with a pinch of salt as the system messed up big time yesterday.
[Nexus 4 General] Audioboxer:
He is right with the TNT part though, they wouldn't come to his area without delivering :(

It seems like Google simply aren't ready to ship N4's, where as they have Nexus 7's to send out. Wouldn't surprise me if their delivery of N4's just came in today :laugh:
[Nexus 4 General] jofullalove:
yep, doesn't seem like the delivery man was in possession of it. I am expecting mine Friday/Monday as i think Thursday is too hopeful.... (fingers are well and truly crossed though):p
[Nexus 4 General] Audioboxer:
It really has to come tomorrow - If the device itself wasn't soo cheap I'd be even more disappointed in the Play Store charging £9.99. Carphone Warehouse do free next day delivery if ordered before 5pm. We all ordered at 8am!
[Nexus 4 General] jofullalove:
well I am being catious about getting excited, I don't want to be too disappointed when I don't get that knock on the door tomorrow.

---------- Post added at 12:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:12 PM ----------

A user on the other thread about google play orders and shipping has recieved his phone... He orderd in the UK at 08:20 am yesterday.
[Nexus 4 General] Vahndroid84:
So you're telling me that you had "please call" status and now it turned "in transit"?????

Hope that it's all ok...this shopping experience is just killing me :silly:
[Nexus 4 General] theimpaler:
Phone delivered at 10:45. Good Luck to everyone else and catch you elsewhere on the forum tinkering with your Nexus 4! :)
[Nexus 4 General] kxuli:
Hi people!

What's Google's customer service phone number?

Cheers!
[Nexus 4 General] mark_glh:
It's a dual sim with orange, so you can "pop" out either :)
[Nexus 4 General] nyordanov:
TNT just told me that they don't have any parcels sent to my post code at all :(

I'm a 1-2 weeks/17:05:51
[Nexus 4 General] Pottrell:
Guessing you didn't have a shipping email either?
[Nexus 4 General] sz4kerto:
Same here for 05:58. :(
[Nexus 4 General] ayamary:
Mines just arrived!
[Nexus 4 General] nyordanov:
No, but I decided to give it a try anyway considering that at least two people got theirs before receiving shipping emails.
[Nexus 4 General] redrum217uk:
had you contacted TNT and they said they had no info for you?
[Nexus 4 General] Platnumyoda:
Fingers crossed mine comes tomorrow....

Contract wise, I went with buying a Three White Desire C online from Three through Topcashback on their Ultimate Internet 100 £13 a month 24 month contract. £52 cashback from Top Cashback, the Desire C sold on ebay for £116, and I am getting (fingers crossed) aboud £66 for recycling my old Desire HD. Meaning I'm only paying about £70 net for my Nexus 4 on a £13 a month contract. Felt that this was the best value route for me, though it does lock me in for 2 years.
[Nexus 4 General] sandozer:
Chopped Sim.

Tracking, my N4 shows location Edinburgh, me, Dunfermline, out for delivery today.

16GB Dec 4 17:09 1/2 weeker.

In the mean time I have circumcised my Sim Card :eek:. Low and behold it still works fitted back in veteran HTC Desire. Used a cheapo e-bay cutter. (£2.64 inc. PP)

Cabin bound awaiting delivery. :cool:
[Nexus 4 General] dave83uk:
Same as mine... apparently it is because Google haven't actually given them the device yet. Hopefully delivery tomorrow
[Nexus 4 General] wdn05:
I'm about 30 mins from Birmingham, still not heard anything. Still pre ordered on Google play. 1-2 weeker. No email.nothing :(
[Nexus 4 General] arj154:
So I've got the delivery email and a reference number but it's not coming up on tent's system. I got the email at 4am so I doubt I'll get it today.
[Nexus 4 General] ant_thomas:
Ohhhh yes!!!

No shipping email.....

.....reply from TNT.

Oh, and tracking works fine :)
[Nexus 4 General] vlad1:
I was in the same situation, shipping mail arrived at 1830 yesterday though. I called TNT and picked option 2 (talk to an advisor) - got put through to a lady named Susan and she explained that while the item had been collected, it for some reason hadn't been transferred to the right depot and that means that delivery will be tomorrow.
[Nexus 4 General] quattroid:
My N4 was just delivered by TNT at 10:50am :D

I'm a 3-5'er (Dec 4, 2012 5:09:28 PM GMT).

No shipping email, no tracking number in Wallet, payment held,

Play account = complete, Wallet = pending

I don't mean to add salt to the wounds with my first post.. :o
[Nexus 4 General] darnit:
Didn't think it could get more depressing reading this thread! I am another 3-5 dayer 5:06, and have received nothing! No shipping notification and no phone. Just hoping that it gets sent out today. :crying:
[Nexus 4 General] Doohicky:
We can but hope. Although I am in work so chances are I will miss it anyway.

What time was your dispatch? I was 3.32
[Nexus 4 General] callummr:
Can I ask roughly whereabouts you are? Waiting on mine in East Central London.
[Nexus 4 General] dubnobass:
2 orders in my household

Mine : Order date: Dec 4, 2012 5:06:17 PM GMT

Wife : Order date: Dec 4, 2012 5:08:19 PM GMT

Both are 1-2 weeks

Both updated to 15th Dec Pre-ordered at the weekend.

No Delivery e-mails.

Still seems to be no reasoning to the dispatch process looks like a bit of a lottery.

Fingers crossed.
[Nexus 4 General] adamase:
You're adding hope for me!
[Nexus 4 General] Brodel:
Received my email at 4am. It still says 'Not Found' when I enter it as the reference number. I had hoped it might have been registered by now, are other people with 4am delivery emails able to track it their delivery yet?

I'm in SW London, Croydon depot is the nearest.
[Nexus 4 General] Josh98:
No I didn't contact them at all, didn't see the point, that's how unlikely I thought it was..

Need to try get my old GiffGaff sim cut down now. Going to be cheeky and see if O2 or anywhere will do it.
[Nexus 4 General] catlog:
If some one can provide me the link to email TNT, it would be highly appreciated. Thanks!

[Nexus 4 General] ant_thomas:
I used this

http://www.tnt.com/express/en_gb/site/home/support/tnt_feedback.html

Got a reply within a few minutes confirming I have a shipment on its way.
[Nexus 4 General] Vahndroid84:
my mate just called tnt and they told him that it should be delivered tomorrow. I think, like someone else said, that they didn't get the package in time to be delivered today...now i'm a little bit more calm.

However...now i will go into another problem. I have to ship it to me in Rome, and i won't be able to manage a pick up in London until thursday. I have to use a "nextday", and hoping that nothing will get wrong with the delivery...
[Nexus 4 General] furrypotato:
I cut my sim with scissors after watching a youtube guide :)

Got to do my wife's tonight too...
[Nexus 4 General] mofus1:
I'm in Belfast and got my shipping email at 3.30am, its being shipped by tech data though which is giving me no info
[Nexus 4 General] Dave11:
Little concerned about status changing from 'out for delivery' to 'delivery address unknown, recovery actions underway'

Anyone else had this?
[Nexus 4 General] sandozer:
You should`nt have to enter the reference number, Just click the hot link on the Gmail letter and be sure to press Reference Number button when it takes you to TNT website.
[Nexus 4 General] Vahndroid84:
i think i will do f5 on this thread for my entire life xD
[Nexus 4 General] Josh98:
Yeah I'm tempted to do that but at the same time I don't want to mess it up and have to wait till giffgaff send another. If a shop won't do it then I might as well try then.
[Nexus 4 General] furrypotato:
I know the feeling. I think I've read more posts on this thread that in all my previous 5 years on this forum !!

And even though my phone has been delivered, I still find myself reading it in case I can help out with any advice etc !!

Although I have already picked which ROM I will install tonight as soon as I root my phone.....
[Nexus 4 General] ant_thomas:
Phone has arrived!!!

So my status -

Google Play - December 15th - Complete

Google Wallet - December 4th - Pending

Credit Card - NatWest - No charges or changes or pending of any sort since day one

No shipping email

Location - Manchester - Trafford Park Depot

Purchase time - 17:05:59 - 3-5 days

I used this

http://www.tnt.com/express/en_gb/site/home/support/tnt_feedback.html

to contact TNT to see if they had a shipment for me. They did and gave me a tracking number.

Good luck guys.

I'll get to use my phone when I get home from work. I won't bother annoying the rest of you on here who haven't received yet.

If you haven't had the shipping email it might still turn up today.
[Nexus 4 General] Pottrell:
I've emailed them - no reply in 10 minutes, how long did you wait? :)
[Nexus 4 General] ant_thomas:
Well I got a confirmation email at 11:01 and a reply at 11:03.

It may have been about 15-20 mins in total. Not that long. I was expecting it to be more like 24 hours.
[Nexus 4 General] knoxie:
my status -

Google Play - December 15th - Complete

Google Wallet - December 4th - Pending

Credit Card - Barclaycard - Pending Charge for the phone

No shipping email

Location - Oxfordshire - Oxford Depot

Purchased December 4, 2012 5:07:09 3-5 day delivery email sent.

Called TNT Direct and got them to check if there were any deliveries to my address today and they said NO :crying: boo hoo.

Its interesting that folks have been getting them without any email or tracking number though, so I will check with TNT everyday to make sure :)

Good luck everyone and enjoy your phones if you have them
[Nexus 4 General] smallishnote:
TechData seems to be Computer 2000, which is the company handling the distribution for Google. No idea why it's linking our tracking numbers to that site though.

Wish we could find out who Google are using for Northern Ireland. I tried TNT and UPS, but the number isn't recognised for either. Might try a couple more
[Nexus 4 General] GafferTaped:
TNT saying they’ve got nothing for me. Hoping for a shipping email tonight then. At least I can get on with work today without checking every time the courier turns up. (1/2 weeker, 17.07, Pending & Pre-Ordered, funds ringfenced by Google but not charged). Feel sorry for TNT with the onslaught of emails they’re no doubt getting.

Good Morning,

Thank you for your enquiry regarding your delivery.

I have searched for deliveries to your postcode but cannot locate anything. We do not data enter any consignments until we physically have these at the depot.

If you go back to the senders they should be able to advise when the goods are to be despatched for delivery.
[Nexus 4 General] CrazyPeter:
Been playing with mine. It's truly amazing what they have achieved for this price. Best phone on the market today, bar none, almost certainly...

Unlocked the bootloader on mine before I set it up, so I have the option of doing stuff later on (unlocking the bootloader wipes the device, relocking doesn't....)
[Nexus 4 General] KidCold:
Just got this email from TNT in regards to 'please call' status:

Good Morning,

Thank you for your enquiry.

I am sorry we have no scans on this item - TNT have not received these good yet.

Please refer back to Google to confirm when they are shipping.

Thank you,

Kind Regards

Michelle Hetherington

Grrr Google!! So close yet so far!
[Nexus 4 General] hunnymonster:
Round here that usually means it got missed off the delivery can or the driver can't be ars....bothered or ran out of time.
[Nexus 4 General] Pottrell:
Strange - I don't even get a confirmation email!
[Nexus 4 General] Harv.!:
It's a normal sim, Orange shops won't cut it instore...either you can cut it yourself or if you phone orange when your sim arrives they'll send you a micro sim. The Orange Dolphin 7 SIM only is a really good deal, I use it.
[Nexus 4 General] r0cafella:
Just had an email back from Tnt who state they expect to receive another delivery from google tonight.

They don't have my device on hand at present.

Here's hoping that tonight is our night guys!
[Nexus 4 General] sandeepg:
So Michelle also emailed me just now after I sent TNT an email about the 'Please Call' status and got the following:

"Good Morning,

Thank you for your enquiry.

I am sorry we have not received the goods from google. We are expecting these tonight so this should be out for delivery tomorrow.

Thank you,

Kind Regards

[Nexus 4 General] madwyn:
This phone drives me crazy~

Checking this thread every 5 minutes before shipping, and now just checking TNT every minute!
[Nexus 4 General] mainTAP:
Got a shipping mail as well, 3:32AM (3-5Day).

Don't forget to update the sheet using this form ;)
[Nexus 4 General] dijonemon:
Received from TNT:
[Nexus 4 General] catlog:
TNT just sent me an email back saying that there are no deliveries coming to me today and that I should call Google to see if they have actually arranged collection. I hate my life.
[Nexus 4 General] Nextass4:
Ok just spoke to a TNT rep.

My package is coming from 10 miles away but the nearest depot is 2 miles away. The reason for this is because the assignment is based on the first 3 letters of the postcode not the proximity itself.
[Nexus 4 General] Vahndroid84:
i'm in the same situation.

My mate called them a while ago. They told him it should be delivered tomorrow. I think that everyone's order with "please call" status are just waiting in depot to be delivered. I think our packages came too late to be delivered today

However...i'm doing f5 also on tnt tracking page...i think i'm becoming mad. But now im hoping that it could turn in "in transit" :D
[Nexus 4 General] dave83uk:
It looks to me that Google has missed the 1-2 weeks shipping for a number of people. Rather than admit it and offer to refund the shipping, they have sent shipping emails before they have even given the package to TNT.

TNT have confirmed that no package has been received for me despite Google sending me a shipping email with reference.
[Nexus 4 General] redrum217uk:
I got an email confirming I did have a delivery from TNT, however when I check, they have given me the number for my neighbour! I even specifically mentioned that my neighbour was also getting one and I wanted to check for my address.

Oh well...
[Nexus 4 General] icosahedron:
Has anyone received their phone with the 'pre-ordered' status in the play store?
[Nexus 4 General] KidCold:
Michelle just emailed me back saying:

"I believe we are due to receive these tonight, therefore, should be a delivery tomorrow".

Fingers cross London folks!
[Nexus 4 General] :
So DPD, UKMail, UPS and Yodel have all been past my house this morning, (dead end road).

Hurry up TNT!
[Nexus 4 General] CrazyPeter:
Errm two weeks is not up yet. They aimed to SHIP it in 1-2 weeks, not deliver it to you in 1-2 weeks.
[Nexus 4 General] redrum217uk:
Just had another email from TNT, they have said Google have sent out emails about deliveries today when they are actually getting picked up today, for tomorrow.

That's great, but I haven't even got an email :( Well there is always tonight I guess!
[Nexus 4 General] donothurtme:
Can anyone confirm that the reference number should be 8 numbers? I have 10, and it's showing up as "not found" after clicking the link from the delivery email
[Nexus 4 General] farhie:
My delivery status says nothing, just not found whether I do consignment or reference and it's a 10 digit number. Who knows what's going on :D
[Nexus 4 General] dave83uk:
14 days were up yesterday. If they have not given the package to TNT then it has not been shipped. That's the way I see it anyway.
[Nexus 4 General] :
Mine is 10 numbers long and works fine when selecting under Reference number
