[Nexus 6P General] D33T:
I just called Huawei to check the status of my 10/14 Graphite order (thought I had ordered earlier, my mistake). The CSR was polite but sounded stressed, as I'm sure you can imagine. He said that they have no idea why the orders are taking so long. He also said that my order should ship by November 20th, but had no real idea if it would actually ship by then. He actually recommended that I cancel my order and try Google, as they have a shorter wait time.

I've got to say that I'm shocked to hear that from a CSR, but I'm sure angry customers have been telling him that for the past few weeks. I hate to say it, but I don't think that Huawei is shipping 6P orders anytime soon. The few that have actually received 6P's from Huawei congrats, I think that the rest of us are in for a long wait. That is if Huawei even ships at all.

I was going to wait out this week, but I can't see any merit in doing so after the conversation that I just had with their CSR.
[Nexus 6P General] Sorge74:
You know I ordered Oct 21st, so I'm not as salty as some, and really I've almost lost interest at this point.... But come on guys you have 5 more days to finish all orders up to the 21sts without letting everyone down. Made express **** some stuff like Google seems to be doing.

That's not overly reassuring.....I feel bad for you buddy....that's a pretty early preorders to not have already.
[Nexus 6P General] cbellevie:
Oh man, please tell me it was not a 64gb graphite? I ordered a 64gb graphite on 10/15 and last week was told would ship this week.
[Nexus 6P General] thenewak:
There is no point in a pre order with Huawei. They should have just left it to Google. All we did was get in a line basically for months when Google is pumping them out every day.
[Nexus 6P General] JoeJags:
What really gets me, is the date cutoff shipping......it makes no sense. If you have stock, you ship it, not stop, waiting on the next shipping cycle. For example, if you have 200x of the 128 aluminum, and 150 orders before 10/22, then the other 50 should go ahead and be shipped to orders that were placed later.......there should NEVER be a SET cutoff date......just makes zero sense......

That's my small rant.....128gb aluminum ordered 10/24......
[Nexus 6P General] DxTcmix:
I'm just waiting for mine to arrive at the local UPS Store so I can pick it up, knew i was not going to be home to pick it up and didn't want to risk not receiving it today. I am stupidly anxious to finally have it (not to mention this MM ROM on my OPO has a bad battery prob).
[Nexus 6P General] D33T:
Yup, that was my exact order (minus one day)

---------- Post added at 01:19 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:43 AM ----------

Yeah, it stinks. I had a glimmer of hope when I saw graphite's being shipped, last week. I'm sure there's other folks that have ordered before me and are in the same position. I've slowly come to terms with not getting a 6P. I had a financial setback about a year ago, Huawei and Affirm were only my option. Canceling through Huawei and a reorder through Google isn't something that I can do right now. I figure that I'll ride out through the week and if it hasn't shipped, I'll just call it quits on the 6P for now.

It's not a total loss though. I dug my 2012 Nexus 7 out of the closet. I rooted and flashed MM, and have been doing some tinkering. Which is something that I had no idea how to do just a few weeks ago. So at least I learned something out of all of this.
[Nexus 6P General] Tbushong:
10 hours.... that's all it took for google to process my order and ship it out. i'll have my 32gb Graphite tomorrow... I'm mad that i waited this long with Huawei. Sales tax is worth it people!

[Nexus 6P General] ForgedInFire:
I cancelled my Huawei order today too and placed my Google order around 4 hours ago. Hopefully mine ships tonight too.
[Nexus 6P General] thenewak:
I am about to cancel and get it through fi. the bill will be about the same right around 60 bucks and ill just use it on verizon...and pay my fi bill
[Nexus 6P General] Jimlarck:
Same, giving it an hour and 30 minutes (8pm CST) before I cancel. Can't wait to fill out that survey and tear them a new one.
[Nexus 6P General] thenewak:
I dont think they will be shipping any tonight, when i talked to them today they didnt seem certain any would ship this week. They told me since the 15th was on a sunday then it would ship monday...the 16th which is at that point LATE November.
[Nexus 6P General] PuffinNugz:
Project fi says device would ship in 2 or 3 weeks. Do we know if that is really the case or are fi phones shipping as fast as a standard order?
[Nexus 6P General] Sorge74:
I just wanted the paid as agreed trade line, 16 my ths since my chapter 7, up to a 690..... Didn't want to put on a card would rather paid monthly and put money in savings.
[Nexus 6P General] thenewak:
I was checking and some if then that were out of stock were going in and out and still shipping by the 12th.

Has anyone got a shipping email at all this week?

[/COLOR]Has anyone got a shipping email at all this week?[/QUOTE]

I haven't seen any movement here or on Reddit all week. I'm a pretty calm dude but I anticipate I will be getting pissed when this week ends and they have officially screwed the pooch on the early November debt line. I would have never anticipated that ordering from the fackin manufacturer would be such a painfully slow process. Still within their time frame though, so I'll put my pitchfork down until it has come and passed. If I see any movement on any thread I follow, I'll report back.

Edit: see attachment. Home boy said he got an email some time between 1700-1800.

I was told today it could ship next week which is in their own terms late November.
[Nexus 6P General] bjoostema:
That would technically make this the second push back on shipping dates without even a modicum of explanation. I'm firm on 3 strike policies. I hope for everyone's sake something happens late tonight (forever hopeful!) or tomorrow. I'm getting annoyed knowing an Affirm payment is fast approaching.

[Nexus 6P General] brooklynchildxbc:
Just did the live chat first thing they asked was if it was regarding the nexus 6p what was the order date mine was the 27th and told me between the 16th and the 30th it would ship.
[Nexus 6P General] Buckeye911:
How did you order it from Google? I've been on the wait list for the 128 GB aluminum since the first day it went out of stock (mid October sometime) and have checked every day since and haven't seen it back in stock to order. The only reason I ordered from Huawei on October 23 was because I couldn't get it from Google.
[Nexus 6P General] Vandam500:
Also just spoke with their support. I ordered on 10/21 and they said "Should be shipping within the next 5 days or so"...
[Nexus 6P General] matslarson:
"or so"

Ladies and gentlmen, Huawei CS.
[Nexus 6P General] thenewak:
Basically same rep, same crap, different day. At this rate we should get those early November orders by Christmas.
[Nexus 6P General] D33T:
That's where I am. I was super careful about keeping my score up. Then life happened, and it happened again, and then one more time. All within a month period, and I just couldn't recover.
[Nexus 6P General] DeathmonkeyGTX:
I'm sorry some of y'all haven't gotten your pre-orders yet. I ordered 11/5/15 128gb frost late at night with free shipping. For some reason it came fedex standard overnight yesterday and arrived today.
[Nexus 6P General] realchinky:
In waiting hell like all of you. Ordered 10/27 and the "rep" said it would ship from the 16-30th.

I'm a pretty patient guy, but I really need to stop looking at /r/nexus6p and here lol. Its making me want the phone even more. I don't really feel like ordering through google because cancelling the affirm thing I have might ruin my credit lol. (I'm paranoid I know). Oh well. I just hope it gets here in time I can show it off for thanksgiving dinner :)
[Nexus 6P General] jhnstn00:
Cool, but you got your Frost from Google...

This is thread is for those that ordered from nevergoingtoget.huawei.com

? ? ?
[Nexus 6P General] Vandam500:
You ordered from Google I assume? This is the Huawei shipping room, not Google ;)

---------- Post added at 11:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:14 PM ----------

Yeah its been well known that people that ordered from 10/22 after were given late November as the shipping. Since you knew that from day 1 before you even ordered no need to get impatient. Us people that ordered and were told early November it would be shipping though is something else...:/
[Nexus 6P General] RPelham:
Well guys, I tried to be patient... Last week I was told it was going to ship, "by end of week or early next week" It is now Wednesday, no word from Huawei. It's been a week since their last "batch" shipped out. For a technology company, it's sad they have no clue as to what's going on with their shipments.

I will cancel my order tomorrow morning, and have already placed my order with Project Fi. I did some research and it's actually cheaper for me to go to Fi and cancel with Sprint anyway, plus now I get the Frost variant. Win-win :)

Good luck to each of you, I hope you guys hear something soon.
[Nexus 6P General] Zeon45:
I'm with ya ordered from Google late last night have an estimate shipping for Nov 12. Plus I really prefer having Nexus Protect. Good luck to those still here
[Nexus 6P General] cotterman:
I ordered on the 19th from Huawei and got tired of hearing it will ship next week every week. So I cancelled yesterday and ordered thru fi so I could make payments and it's out for delivery today.
[Nexus 6P General] imex99:
U can order with fi and never activate fi and just use my sprint sim?
[Nexus 6P General] cotterman:
I think you,have,to activate it. Because when you activate,it,u starts the monthly payments for your bill and phone payment. You could always call and ask I could be wrong. Although you could do it and use,your spring card. I mean I know they would still make you pay for it or demand it back....
[Nexus 6P General] mxjcmxjc:
I wonder if all these cancelations are speeding up the shipping process for Huawei? I hope so. ??
[Nexus 6P General] thenewak:
You have to activate it or they will charge you full price. I talked to the rep yesterday about it. So be sure to activate it and just pay the $20/month+ your device price. Comes out to about the same as affirm.
[Nexus 6P General] paulwcarlton:
As far as I can tell it's perfect. Loving it!
[Nexus 6P General] imex99:
Unused data u get refund monthly, right?
[Nexus 6P General] PuffinNugz:
So you actually ordered from fi and it only took one day rather than 2 or 3 weeks like it says?

what color and memory?
[Nexus 6P General] cotterman:
64,aluminum

---------- Post added at 01:33 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:32 PM ----------

Yes. If u sign up for the 5 gigabytes of data and you only use to they will take that extra $30 that you paid and put it towards your next months bill
[Nexus 6P General] MoonChou:
Haha one would hope right? But who knows maybe all the cancellations are creating havoc within Huawei's system and making more issues. :silly:
[Nexus 6P General] cotterman:
I don't have phone yet but it is shipped
[Nexus 6P General] PuffinNugz:
Sorry bout all these questions but did it say 2 or 3 weeks when you ordered? The frost says ships by 13th but aluminum says 2 or 3 weeks.
[Nexus 6P General] RPelham:
while the monthly payments are around the same as affirm, u gotta remember that the duration is much longer. 12 months with affirm and 24 with Fi. Unless you switched to Fi as your carrier its not worth it. at the end of your payments you would have paid an extra 480.00. I don't feel a near 95% interest rate is worth it lol.
[Nexus 6P General] thenewak:
Maybe not, I'm just ready to get my phone. Unfortunately I didn't qualify for a fi payment anyways so back to the waiting bench. I called Huawei today they said mine should ship by Friday and could ship anytime now and we could even get emails today for shipping so I guess we will see. I'm so tired of this note 4. It's not rooted but freezes and randomly reboots when navigating and listening to podcasts.
[Nexus 6P General] PuffinNugz:
Yeah i thought about that. I was also thinking that i'll have my tax return in 3 months. So I would cancel fi then pay off the balance of the phone when i get my return first week of Feb. Works out to be about the same as affirm,. Still undecided.

I will be out of town the whole last week of November. I don't want it to sit in front of my house for a week or get returned to huawei. This is the main reason I'm thinking about going this route.
[Nexus 6P General] nrage23:
I got very lucky with Huawei I guess. I ordered a 128gb Graphite on 10/21 and it got delivered Monday. When I ordered the website said late November. All I can say however and whenever you get you Nexus 6p. It is worth it. I have used almost all of the flagship devices of the last 2 years and the 6P is the best phone I have used.
[Nexus 6P General] thenewak:
I was going to cancel my 64gb graphite to get the 128 when it came out but didn't. I should have.
[Nexus 6P General] cotterman:
Said leaves warehouse by 12th
[Nexus 6P General] PuffinNugz:
that sucks. Now it says 2 to 3 weeks. :/ Frost ships by 13th, but I want aluminum.
[Nexus 6P General] Jimlarck:
Doubt they'll ship today, today is veterans day and I'm pretty sure UPS is closed today. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.
[Nexus 6P General] PuffinNugz:
UPS is operating today. Just not the USPS.

https://www.ups.com/content/us/en/resources/ship/imp_exp/operation.html
[Nexus 6P General] Jimlarck:
Sweet so that might mean they maybe might hopefully please ship our phones today :)
[Nexus 6P General] owuaarontsi:
Also, I have a package from amazon today that is out for delivery through USPS. So it looks like both should be running.
[Nexus 6P General] PuffinNugz:
Jeez, I hope so. I've been so close to ordering from Fi. If I wanted white or 128GB I would cause they ship by the 13th. I want 64 GB Alum, but that says 2 or 3 weeks.
[Nexus 6P General] YogiYahooeys:
As I mentioned in my previous post, I cancelled my Oct 23rd Huawei order and ordered through Google. Placed the order for a 64 GB Aluminum yesterday morning. This morning I received my shipping notification. Even though I took the free shipping option, it's shipping overnight through FedEx. Due to arrive tomorrow. So glad I jumped off the Huawei ship into the Google lifeboat... :)
[Nexus 6P General] gauresphere:
Posting an update to my post. I received shipping confirmation from google today and yes to my surprise they have shipped it overnight :) getting my phone tomorrow yay!!
[Nexus 6P General] ElijahGT:
I guess I am prone to losing because I was sick of waiting with no updates from Huawei on my 64 GB graphite so when I saw it pop up on Google store today I ordered one and planned on cancelling my Huawei order when my Google order shipped. The only reason I even did it was because I saw people getting their orders from Google overnighted the next day. But I talked to a service rep who told me mine will be shipping as described on my invoice which is the thirteenth and 3-5 business days shipping which places arrival around the 18-20 which is still late November so I can't win either way. ? Though I plan on keeping my Google order and cancelling Huawei's still, mainly because of their customer support. And if I have to RMA Huawei sounds like a nightmare.
[Nexus 6P General] wwevoxnj:
Google is shipping out phones next day if anyone wants to cancel their order. I cancelled mine yesterday and placed an order with Google and it shipped today. Scheduled for delivery tomorrow.

I originally ordered with Huawei on Oct 15th and never heard anything about shipment
[Nexus 6P General] Realist86:
I don't believe I'll be as lucky, I ordered a 128gb Aluminum on 10/26, still sitting in limbo, but like you said, it said late November, so I still have a week or two. I do plan on cancelling and jumping onto a Google order if it hasn't shipped by end of next business week.
[Nexus 6P General] spooki_spaghetti:
32gig aluminum ordered 10/22 in ohio as well anything yet?
[Nexus 6P General] imex99:
32gb graphite in Ohio, ordered 10/22 and nothing through UPS or Huawei yet.... [emoji36]
[Nexus 6P General] thafngame24:
yeah it is saying the shipping label was created today and its ready for ups to pick up.. the estimated schedule date is thursday the 29th and its coming from fort worth texas... i am located in ohio
[Nexus 6P General] ozzyager:
Kinda sad that this information makes me so happy...
[Nexus 6P General] xray49er:
Do you know if they used your huawei order # for the reference I am trying to see if I can find my order but my huawei order is not working for the reference # Thanks in advance
[Nexus 6P General] thafngame24:
im my ups quantum email i received, there were 2 reference numbers given.. one was my huawei order number and the second was a number i dont recognize..probably a ups specific order number
[Nexus 6P General] whiskeyxrey:
Of course :)
[Nexus 6P General] ozzyager:
Now it's official - ha - thanks!:)
[Nexus 6P General] reno55:
Not what Affirm told me...they told me that the first payment was due when it was due. I told them in no way shape or form would I make any payment until my phone arrived. I also told them if they report to my credit bureau or charge a late fee I will file with my Attorney General's office.
[Nexus 6P General] ggreenwood334:
So both orders that have shipping from ups and out of fort with Texas. And ordered day 1
[Nexus 6P General] AndroidJunkie198:
Anyone frustrated and confused as to why the phone manufacturer hasn't shipped sooner than Google should realize that Google is their #1 customer here, not me or you. Their shipments likely have higher priority than ours. (I preordered on gethuawei on 10-14). But it looks like some of us are getting UPS emails indicating Huawei started shipping as well. so r-e-l-a-x people :)
[Nexus 6P General] five40:
Awesome.. I placed my order 9/30 so I should be shipping soon hopefully
[Nexus 6P General] NLCMOBSTA183:

I've got a shipment showing in my ups but it says it can't find the details when I click it. Maybe that is it
[Nexus 6P General] SAL8116:
Well too late for me first payments already in and no phone.

You knew that when you signed up. It gave you the date the first payment is due when you signed up. So long as it is not illegal in your state, I don't think you have a leg to stand on in regards to the payment set up.
[Nexus 6P General] SensualPuma:
Just chatted w/ support. Ordered on 10/20. 32GB Graphite.
[Nexus 6P General] ggreenwood334:
My gmail must be broken.I don't have a shipping email yet. Lol
[Nexus 6P General] thafngame24:
according to ups.. my order is now in transit!
[Nexus 6P General] reno55:
Does not matter if it is illegal or not. There are laws against financing physical products, and one of them is you must actually receive the product you financed. For example would you buy a car and pay Ford Motor Credit your first month payment if the dealership never delivered the car? No you would not. I am quite certain from a common sense standpoint the AG would see it that way too. Trust me I work in a finance field where we absolutely have followed the law and the AG received a complaint and wants us to resolve it
[Nexus 6P General] whiskeyxrey:
Same here :D
[Nexus 6P General] vladimirhtg:
32gb Graphite ordered to SC last night from Google, shipped earlier this afternoon. USPS standard overnight.
[Nexus 6P General] cotterman:
I cancelled my huawei order yesterday,and ordered from Google and I'll have it,tomorrow.
[Nexus 6P General] Aircraft800:
I just canceled my order with Huawei 64G Graphite ordered on 10/15, and re-ordered a 128G Frost from Google. Huawei said they wouldn't ship mine till next week now after telling me it was for sure shipping this week. I didn't want to deal with them if I ever had a problem, would rather deal with Google and have their Nexus Protect protection plan.
[Nexus 6P General] bbedward:
Can't you order the N6P from the google store and still do affirm post-order if you wanted to?

For the people who said they are sticking with Huawei because of affirm anyway.
[Nexus 6P General] cbellevie:
You can do financing if you go through Fi. I don't believe that it is available through the Play Store though.
[Nexus 6P General] bbedward:
I mean affirm lets you finance purchases after you make them. So you could buy a 6P from play store then request affirm financing if I understand right
[Nexus 6P General] bjoostema:
You have to allow go to the "cards" option and enable them access to your debit card. From there you can choose any purchase over a certain size to make payments on. The one thing I'm not sure of is if you have to have the full amount in your account before making the purchase so that you don't go into the red on your account before Affirm recognizes the charge as something sizable enough to be considered for loan. I connected my card briefly, but disconnected it after seeing how it actually worked. May be something to look into though.
[Nexus 6P General] matslarson:
The only way to finance if you want to purchase through Google is to sign up for Fi and do a payment plan through there

Correct. Ordering through the Play Store requires payment in full, in order to finance you would need to get a Fi invite if you don't have one already, then order the device through the Fi webpage

---------- Post added at 10:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:07 PM ----------

I stand corrected, I didn't know they offered that option. Wouldn't that still require you have the money available in order to actually place the order? You'd be able to have Affirm credit you back and finance the balance, but you'd have still have to place an order to begin with.
[Nexus 6P General] bbedward:
Yea you'd have to have the money in full up front . Since huawei takes 3 years to ship you could save up in that time since you vet reimbursed anyway :P
[Nexus 6P General] thenewak:
Yeah I called affirm and you can do it that way. I wish I would have known that when i ordered. The only concern I have is if they will approve me again.
[Nexus 6P General] PuffinNugz:
did they say how long it takes for them to put the money back in your account?

---------- Post added at 05:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:36 PM ----------

Just called and they said up to 6 business days...
[Nexus 6P General] tommyg562000:
Yeah Google is the way to go. I just ordered a 2nd frost 64gb last night and it's already shipped out.
[Nexus 6P General] imex99:
Clicking on ur email... Looks like our chat people aren't Huawei employees.... Part of the reason they know nothing?
[Nexus 6P General] owuaarontsi:
Looks like it. I used to work for Verizon and some of our call centers were outsourced as well. They were pretty terrible at their job on many occasions. This Oscar guy probably won't know anything either.
