Credit card billing address

Hello everybody,

Planning to book the N4 in the next couple of hours :), need a bit of help in a couple of things.

I'm gonna book the N4 with a hdfc credit card, so do i create a new account with the address given to me on comG or do i just go directly on play store use my current account and just mention the details on google wallet and keep the shipping and billing addresses the same :)

Also is there anywhere where i should put in the phone number given by Comg on playstore

Thank a load for all the help

cheerss
[Nexus 4 General] keyrun8:
is it necessary to update the us tracking number on my shipment if i have mentioned the unique paking number in my us address? how long does google take to send the tracking number to me?
[Nexus 4 General] dreamerAxe:
You can update your wallet to the US address provided by ComG. You'd need to keep the billing n shipping address same .I.e. US address my ComG, when checking out of the order process.You can update your phone number as the one provided my ComG if you want but you can leave it blank while ordering. I left it blank when I ordered mine.

Hi Guys, I need some advice, i ordered my Nexus 4 on 14th Feb, and had plan that my friend would get it back to india, who is returning on March 2nd.

Here is my order status

This says estimated shipping by 1st March.

Do they ship before that?

I plan to wait for 1 more week, else i would cancel the order. Would cancelling work if i cancel around 24th-25th on this month?
[Nexus 4 General] ashishv:
They will ship it within 10 days,if everything's alright.:cool:

PPObox users

Hey guys I've finally decided to buy the 16gb Nexus 4. I'll be using PPObox for shipping. :good: I have a few questions for the guys who used PPObox.

When we enter details for a new shipment, what should we put in "Description of contents", "Shipped/Purchased from"?? Do these fields actually make any difference? :confused:

Also what should I put in "TOTAL Item Value $USD"? 349$ or the amount including the taxes?

These questions can be quite repetitive even frustrating, but it's better to be safe than sorry. :fingers-crossed:

Thanks. :good:
[Nexus 4 General] hsachdeva:

I want ur hard earned experience here.. i ordered on 12th.. still on pre order.. i called up the bank CITI CC.. they said payment is approved but unclaimed.. he gave the approval no. As well... do i call the wallet helpline or keep bugging device support people or do i just wait?
[Nexus 4 General] vaibkulk:
mobile fun one pricing is good... Amazon show 1500 as well..Shipping estimate of March 06-15

I ordered a 16 GB Nexus 4 to my New York PPOBOX address yesterday using an SBI Credit Card. The total amount was shown to be 395.21 USD including shipping and tax, but I got a message from the SBI that I was charged 22,305 INR. The USD rate at the time of my order was not more than 1 USD = 55 INR. At that rate, I should be charged no more than 21,700 INR. So what is the reason for that extra amount Google have charged me with? Any help will be very helpful.
[Nexus 4 General] Ankit Tulsian:
Your bank charged foreign exchange. It's 3.5 percent AFAIK.
[Nexus 4 General] keyrun8:
OK, do all the indian banks do that?
[Nexus 4 General] AayushDhuria:
Saame!!!!!!!! I ordered yesterday using SBI CC. They charged me right away unlike how others are being charged after few hours or days
[Nexus 4 General] duuudee:
I ordered on the 9th using a SBI CC and I was charged only Rs 21,000 :D
[Nexus 4 General] shishirasm:
It won't come to 453$...

Playstore device 350$ + sales tax in america 30$ + shipping in US 15$ = 395$

theamericanbazaar = 100$

Total = 395+100 = 495$ = Rs.27.2k

And you need to learn English.

I've said it twice already. "I DON'T want to be a ****. But I HAVE to."

And besides, it's not like he asked you for any advice. He specifically said he wants to sell his phone. He didn't ask whether or not he should.

And jumping in the middle of what? You two weren't have a conversation. He said something, you replied to him. A conversation is a two way street.

If anything, I just did the same. You replied to him, I replied to you.

Also, nothing about your reply to him was "friendly" in any sort of way.

Just saw status of the status of The American Bazaar which reads

When I asked them that why to buy from you and not borderlinx or any else then they replied

So price becomes

$349 + $14 shipping + $100 = $463 (Rs 25.5k)

Not bad for 16 GB Model
[Nexus 4 General] TheQuarterMile:
463$ is cheap but I feel the prices will fall even more on eBay in a week's time since the competition has gone up...

please suggest if their is any other good shipping company other than this?
[Nexus 4 General] atulalvenkar:
There are some states in US which have no tax. These guys usually give address of such states which reduces around $26 of the total price.

or provide me good..alternatives...
[Nexus 4 General] shadowkay:
Both the shipping address and billing address has to be from the same Country! Even though your debit card has indian address mapped to it...give the US address. It works. I ordered my Nexus 4 using a indian credit card and gave UK address for the billing address aswell! No issues atall. Just make sure both addresses are within the same place you are ordering from.

Proof: I jus got my shipping information. Will mostly have my Nexus4 by end of this week :)

Go for PPOBox. Reasons?

1. Lesser shipping costs & quick customs clearance

2. Get your phone in 5 days flat

3. Next day international shipping

4. Get a sealed box

Still stuck with 2 bullet points saying estimate shipping march 1st.
[Nexus 4 General] D3LeT3:
There's absolutely no harm in speaking to Google wallet support just to check your Google wallet status. Thing is you don't even realize there's a hold placed on your account nor is the reason disclosed. I'd recommend everyone to call up Google wallet and just Get their wallet status checked if you receive no updates even after 5 days of receiving the order.

Tech support will only look at your wallet account for answers after your shipping estimated time expires. That's a lotta time wasted. Just a 3minute call and 24hours to clear the block if placed, is better than doing the same after 2-3weeks. Right?

All the best!

---------- Post added at 06:43 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:33 PM ----------

That's good news. I'm glad I could help :good:

But i guess you're 24 hours will start Monday morning. Expect a reply by Tuesday maximum. Like I said don't call tech support till 24 hours end or some other Tech Support agent will take over the case and send it across to another specialist and you'll be asked to wait for a fresh 24 hours. It's stupid, I know, but that's how Google rolls apparently.

Is the google device support and wallet helpline no the same if not can u provide me with the no.

Is it possible to use Indian debit card for payment in PPOBOX?
[Nexus 4 General] D3LeT3:
They do have a dedicated number which I didnt note down but Play Store Support also transfers your call to the Google Wallet department if you request for it.
[Nexus 4 General] sandeep_008:
PPOBOX help

I dont think it makes much difference, but safer side just fill up, what is the problem, this may help them to track your package.

in Description of contents fill "LG Nexus 4 mobile phone"

in Shipped/Purchased from fill "Google inc".

in US ORDER TRACKING NO. (fedex, USP, USPS) leave blank (after getting tracking no. from google update the same)

in Order No. on Item invoice fill "NA" (after getting tracking no. from google update the same)
[Nexus 4 General] ShankyJain:
Yeah dude... Totally fine. Many ppl did.

But preferably use cc.. If u have read previous posts u would know abt holding concept. If possible use cc but DC is totally fine

Yes but SBI DC might not work, I have visa debit card but it never worked with play store :S and SBI guys dont know how to solve this issue.

My phone has reached London..(PORTLAND -> CINCINNATI ->EAST MIDLANDS ->LONDON-HEATHROW)

does anyone know what is the next location? is it India or somewhere else? (Used HSG)
[Nexus 4 General] IndDoc:
More than a week since I placed order, and no more than 2 bullet points. "Google Inc. has received your order.". That's it. I'm losing interest in this phone now :(

If anyone is looking to order this phone, be warned - use an American credit card for placing order. It is just a lot faster with that. Also, indian credit cards are faster than Indian debit cards. The SLOWEST are indian debit card orders. Try to avoid them. I placed mine using an axis bank debit card and am seeing no movement whatsoever on my order since a week now. I'm kinda worried.

Currently the Status is Shipping estimate: February 13, 2013

On Feb 14: Google Inc. received your order.

and now it says "Your order has been sent to Google Inc.."

I called up Google Play Support Team yesterday & got the information that it was in pending stage till 14th Feb & went to processing stage on 15th Feb, No idea what this means

Do I still need to contact Google Wallet department & check my Google Wallet status :confused:

Screen is being replaced by LG india if you crack it somehow. They won't do it for free in US either so not a big deal, If you don't have a flaw at first, you might never have it, and software issues can be solved easily. It's XDA!

Though my purchase status is way too pathetic, as I ordered on 29th jan, and up to 15th feb it was pre-order state,and now it shows Google received your order( till now no money has been deducted from my ICICI CC) , now its stuck there, but anyhow if in the future the device some how managed to reach my HSG address, what should i do while paying HSG via paypal?

Shall I choose Paypal's currency conversion method or shall I choose the option to charge me in USD, so that visa rates apply? which one is the better option?
[Nexus 4 General] nashleon:
Everything is going as planned.

Nexus 4(16gb), Ordered on 10th feb, shipped to New york PPOBOX on 15th, then they shipped the same day to India.

The shipment should arrive in Mumbai PPOBOX on 18th feb (Monday) hopefully.

To those who are going to order don't use debit card, just go with Credit card(Recommended). :good:
[Nexus 4 General] ShankyJain:
Good that u used ppobox. FedEx used by HSG n ComG clear it from Delhi customs n ship to Mumbai thereby making us pay octroi... I got charged 2300 itself for octroi for 2 phones + customs

This seller has gone nuts!!!
[Nexus 4 General] Di@blo:
I don't know which is better in terms of conversion rates but I chose PayPal's own conversion coz you get to know the final charges on your card immediately before payment. I'm sure there wouldn't be much of a difference between the two so better go for PayPal's conversion itself.

Good find bro. Ordered 1 just for the low price :p. Would be a good deal if they honor the order properly. Lowest ever is 695 @ FK.
[Nexus 4 General] D3LeT3:
Google Wallet Support Number

The Wallet Support Number is 1-855-492-5538. You could confirm with them directly. Have your registered address i.e. your US Shipping address ready as they ask you to provide it for verification.

Do you have 1 or 2 bullet points in wallet order?

If you have 1 bullet point after 10days I would assume its a Wallet problem.

If you have 2 bullet points, your Google Wallet is "Chargeable" (this is the term Tech Support used after my Wallet hold was lifted). At this stage your credit card information and address will be verified. Make sure its the same as the Shipping address. In case there's an error at this stage, Google will e-mail you and ask you to correct this information within 7days or the order will be cancelled. So just ensure your Wallet Info is correct. I'd recommend you delete your Indian address entirely from there.

Nexus 4 for 35k, A freaking case for 2.5k (original price $20). Now a $60 charger for 10k? Greed greed everywhere. Can't blame Indians.

Glad i used PPOBOX n CC :D Ordered on 16th, let's see, this wait is killing me.

I think he must have used a US address in wallet already to get it delivered. He couldn't have kept Indian address in wallet as Google checkout uses the same address :confused:
[Nexus 4 General] chintan.y.t@gmail.com:
interesting fact i learnt after reading several posts.

Limbo Level 1: Made purchase and it shows up in your Play account and Wallet (status irrelevant) but no confirmation, back order, or shipping emails from Google. These people are known as the Untouchables.

Limbo Level 2: Made purchase and it shows up in your Play account and Wallet (status irrelevant) and received a confirmation email, but no back order, or shipping emails from Google. These people are known as the Forgotten.

Limbo Level 3: Made purchase and it shows up in your Play account and Wallet (status irrelevant) and received a confirmation and back order email, but no shipping emails from Google. These people are known as the Betrayed.

Limbo Level 4: Made purchase and it shows up in your Play account and Wallet (status irrelevant) and received a confirmation email and shipping emails from Google. These people are known as the Impatient.

Those who have their phones in-hand today are simply the Hated.:p
[Nexus 4 General] nashleon:
Reasons why you should go with PPOBOX:

+ The shipment box will not be opened at any cost.

+ No octroi n stuff like that simply you don't have to worry about customs in india cause PPOBOX got their own office branch in mumbai.

+ You don't need Paypal for payment.

+ you just have to pay about rs 1200 for customs.

The only disadvantage is the location of the PPOBOX office in USA, its located in New york so need to pay tax for each shipment 32$ for nexus 4.
