CPW have just said only the first 1000 orders have been made available for the 30th, others are delayed until the 9th.

Anyone ever ordered with GiffGaff? When they get their stock in, they just put them on sale straight away on their website first come, first served. For the 6P and the S7 Edge, they had their stock in a few days before the big stores/CPW and I got my 6P early. I'm going to be checking the website everyday next week.

CPW informed me by chat last night that all pre orders will be delivered as per the delivery date on the email (mines set for 31st) and any orders processed now will be delivered as per the dates on the site.

I would be very surprised if Samsung have not provided CPW with confirmed numbers of what stock they will supply, you can only hope that the CPW site is set up to change delivery date once pre orders have reached the confirmed stock numbers.
[Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] WESBAR:
Fingers crossed then. Hopefully Expansys warehouse are working Saturday!
[Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] zonkkk:
So you have two orders with CPW both colours, and they told you they won't deliver either before 9th and 16th?

These may as well be dates, for people ordering now, but not for confirmed pre-orders.

You've either got the wrong end of the stick or you're taking the piss.
[Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] KeysarSoze:
Il b honest this thread of the topic release date kind of getting out of hand. Rest assured we all will get it in September right. Few days there n there withing the release date shouldn't be so bothersome should it?

I hot vague email today... I called up about 5days ago yo cpw because after placing the order via phone I didn't get no email confirmation N I just wanted to clarify if alls well. They told me phone orders don't get no confirmation n that next il hear from them is on the delivery date 30th via a text message prior to one hour of delivery time. After that Havnt contacted them.

From my experience of retail n customer queries when Eva someone calls up for something we give vague or estimate info. From all the posts iv seen lot of people getting all sorts of info. Just sit back n well enjoy other things in life.

Ok this has become a unnecessary rant my apologies

(I asked about changing the colour due to the massive delay) Customer Service manager returned my call, apologised, offered more data but explained that those are the dates.... Samsung produced limited stock, far less than they were expecting, my order was placed on the first day too.

Yes but we know Samsung sold out by 8am on the 16th. Only the first 1000 will get an early bird Note 7 those rules were sent out in the email and were on the web site as well. We don't know how many cpw have for early delivery. If you ordered from cpw they should have told you if you were to get your device before 2nd September.

They told me the 30th, that's no longer happening. Stock was smaller than expected.

When I ordered on the 11th, I was quoted the 2nd for delivery. But then pre-orders taken on the 16th are being delivered on the 30th??
[Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] jah:
Only Samsung offered early delivery for 1000 pre orders. As far as i know. CPW did not set a number on the number of customers who would receive their Note 7s before the official availability date of 2nd September. When i ordered from cpw on the 12th they did not claim for definite i would get my Note 7 before the 2nd of September. CPW have raised expectations from poor order management.

I'm confused on samsungs reservation system. Let's say I was the 150th reservation of the first 1000 to reserve a phone (I hope I am), come next Tuesday will they be holding a unit 150 for me? I'm curious why they're mentioning being one of the first 1000 so do I stop up to midnight to order or wait til morning?

Mine was pre-ordered on launch day from Samsung. Was going to get rid of the Note 5 but it is now going to my wife.

When you say pre order , is that a reservation or action reserved with payment. I didn't see anything other than reservations on Samsung's website.

Yes Bluetooth renders the headphone amp redundant, with Bluetooth headphones which have their own built in amp sound is not bad at all. Not the best but certainly good.

From what I understand you pre register (on Samsungs site) and on 16th you get a code. This gives you a chance of being one of the first 1000 to get one. Not sure how many codes are being issued - maybe more than 1000. It'll then just be a race to see who pays first?!

Seems an odd way to do it. Why didn't they just take your pre-order and funds from launch! It guarantees your phone and they know their supply requirement.
[Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] neildo:
I read somewhere that if you're one of the 'lucky' 1000 pre-orderers you'll get the phone 2 days before public release. Whoopy doo!

But that's what the Carphone Warehouse is offering.

Second question, who would you recommend I order from. I'm buying sim free, unlocked. Providing Samsung and the Carphone Warehouse offer the same freebie, who should I order from? Part of me is leaning towards Samsung in hope that because I ordered direct from them I'd receive better service should I need it. But there isn't a Samsung store local to me as there is CW

[Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] alltaken123:
Looks like some are getting no rhyme or reason to the delivery, I ordered on the 16th with CPW, no dispatch and delayed, yet others have confirmation of dispatch. Oh well, looks like it might be only fair to mess around with them by returning the device and going elsewhere.
[Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] apprentice:
This is absolutely correct. I know most parcel carriers do not deliver to home addresses on Bank Holidays but their hubs certainly receive and process parcels at weekends and bank holidays. I have even received parcels from Amazon on a Sunday!

I understand everyone being anxious (as I am) but I have bought many pre-orders from Samsung in the past and they have been dispatched on time and arrived on the release date (though you will

always

be at the mercy of parcel carriers unfortunately!)

Just off the phone to CPW, everyone is apparently on back order til the 9th, some devices may arrive early, but that will be down to luck, I was told 'there's been a few hiccups with the supplier, so delivery might be later than expected' even when I mentioned the pre-order early promo, and my quoted delivery day when I ordered, I was still told, by the 9th. Keep seeing videos of people in the US with it already and I just want it now!

Just ordered mine direct from Samsung, Via Upgrade program, £32 P/M isn't too bad, just need to keep it in good condition to be eligible to upgrade in 12 months.

Got the Accessory pack included with mine.

Hopefully its a decent upgrade from the Z5 Premium.
[Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] KeysarSoze:
You have to return the device so basically ur renting a product for 32 a month. I was going to go for this but though you get keep the device not return it
[Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] jah:
Simultaneously Samsung have started service to sell reconditioned devices in India.
[Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] Zaim2012:
Returning the device to upgrade is fine with me, technically you'd only get about half your money back if you sell after 12 months anyway, or do you mean even after the 24 month agreement its not "yours" ? Sorry just a tad confused lol.
[Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] KeysarSoze:
Lol nah you understood well I think. From what I gather when you take the latest device next year you have to opt in again with plan of 32 a month, n say device gets damaged you will continue to pay for the 24 period. I guess it's appealing to some. So what device did u get.... Realise lot option for black than blue. Across pond in US blue been popular. Personally if was 20 wudv ordered the blue.
[Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] chrisworton:
to me its not too bad of a deal at all. you pay a total of about £460 for a £739 phone in the 12 months then choose to upgrade which is essentially selling your phone back to samsung for £280. you probably wouldnt get much more money selling a 12 month old note 7 on ebay after fees etc.

Mine was a Vodafone upgrade - I received a text from Vodafone this afternoon saying they're now processing my upgrade and my number is being ported over to my new sim (as I ordered in store they gave me the sim on the day). As I was passing CPW I decided to pop because I wasn't sure if that meant my phone had arrived or not. I was told that the sim gets activated when the phone is shipped so the text indicates that the phone is on it's way to the CPW store and should be there for me Tuesday morning.

edit: as for the gift - my receipt says the same and I questioned that the day I ordered. The gift is the VR - not sure why it's printed like that.
[Note 7 Guides, News, & Discussion] adjei7:
I got an email last night from CPW with my delivery details from DPD which work. It says that my item has not been picked up yet, but I can track it. When I emailed a few weeks ago, they said they would send delivery details when it was ready to be shipped. I doubt they would send me that if they didn't have them in stock. So, definitely mixed messages from CPW.

That's normal. They generate parcel numbers with carriers before the parcel is actually picked up. Parcel numbers are recycled by carriers so before they actually pick up and scan the package it will show the previous tracking numbers route etc. When your package is actually collected and scanned it will change to your details.
