Indirect signature means you can leave them a signed note authorizing them to leave it - IF you feel comfortable leaving such an expensive item at your door.
[Verizon Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] californiarailroader:
Unless you have it setup with FedEx to have signed packages left (a note, or setup with your local FedEx facility), no, someone will have to sign for it. Verizon does that on everything they ship, even on $5 accessories which seems silly. I live in low key, very rural area (Redwood Valley, CA), so unless a signature is specifically requested by the sender, UPS, USPS, OnTrac and FedEx leave packages on our porch, we've never had anything stolen here, ever. People out here would quickly notice suspicious people and activity like that, plus we have a Mendocino County Sheriff's officer and a CHP officer in our development :D
[Verizon Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] billinaz:
Indirect signature requires that you leave a note.

Indirect Signature Required: FedEx obtains a signature from someone at the delivery address; from a neighbor, building manager or someone at a neighboring address; or the recipient can also leave a FedEx Door Tag authorizing release of the package without anyone present.

On my Verizon shipments, no signatures have ever been required.

When I do leave a note for an indirect signature, I use the form that can be found online instead of a generic 'please leave package' note.

Is there anybody that hasn't received shipping confirmation that pre ordered around the 2nd, 3rd or 4th of August like me? My order is still "processing", it's been like that since the 3rd.

Why would a bank block a transaction? My total was $0
[Verizon Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] Kbrielle:
They might see it as fraud if it is a higher amount than your usual ordinary purchases. Some people were buying the phone full price and I know on the android central site someone had their transaction blocked because of the high amount. But you say your total was $0 so ignore my statement. I'm not sure why you haven't seen any movement then on your account. Sorry.
[Verizon Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] californiarailroader:
Well, they do for me, on EVERYTHING, however, AT&T never has, maybe it's a regional thing. The signature thing can also be setup with your local office, so that they will always leave packages (on porch, with a neighbor, etc.), we've done it before with our local FedEx facility. Like I said, though, this is a rural area too.

I just had to pay the tax on mine, which was $65.
[Verizon Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] Kbrielle:
Yes same here. Well I had to pay the tax plus I also paid off the horrible iPhone 6s Plus that I've been stuck with for the past 6 months in order to upgrade to the Note 7.
[Verizon Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] californiarailroader:
Right on, welcome to the Note club! Mine's an additional line, it's joining a Note 5 and an LG G PAD X8.3 family :D
[Verizon Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] Kbrielle:
Thank you!!!! I have had each Note since the 2 and I don't know what in the world made me want to try iPhone. All the members of my family have them and the moment I got it I hated it should've returned it right then and there but I'm so EXCITED to get my phone Friday. The anticipation is killing me.
[Verizon Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] Lmax579:
Thalts cool... I spoke to Verizon and they said my card won't matter because the total is $0...its for my wife the black one so I want her to get hers
[Verizon Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] Android_Fr3ak:
Hey everyone. Pre ordered the black note7 here from best buy. Fully expect not to receive it until friday. What I didn't expect is how calm this thread is. The threads over on AC and T-MO are hilarious. I check them just for comedy. It's like lord of the flies over there. Anyways, just thought I would drop in. Hope everyone gets their phone early!
[Verizon Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] billinaz:
Has anyone that ordered on 8/12 (thats what I get for changing my mind about phone color..............twice) had their card charged? I finally decided on blue.

As far as I can tell, my Note 7 is the next one due to process from 'awaiting inventory' in our business plan (many thousands of people in this plan)

I keep going back to the list of orders, must fit with the definition of insanity!
[Verizon Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] jjayzx:
Imagine the rage tomorrow when they don't see it for T-mobile Tuesday crap they've been mentioning. I go there to have a laugh.
[Verizon Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] californiarailroader:
No worries, I had my "Oooh, iPhone" time tool lol I've always had Android too, but Apple pulled me in for a couple of models :D Just for comparison with the FedEx tracking, this is what Verizon shows on their page.

(Ignore the 97 temp, it's 91 here, crazy weather program heh)
[Verizon Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] Android_Fr3ak:
The reaction

Haha! Too funny.

I just think it's crazy people are calling Samsung, calling their carriers like they are going to ship it faster. Oh well. Makes for good entertainment.
[Verizon Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] billinaz:
They started calling me names and insulting me because I told them that they had no reason to be so upset because they didn't get the phone before the date they were supposed to get it (the 19th). One guy kept ranting to the point he could not spell, I bet he was fuming more when I corrected his spelling for him.
[Verizon Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] aulwes:
New customer, 3rd Note

I just hope I get mine on the 19th.

I switched three lines from Sprint (13 year customer). I had a painful experience Saturday. I was going to wait and buy on release day but there was an additional $100 incentive per line to switch this weekend only (on top of trade in). We got our 3rd line switched to the S7 in store (after 3 hours). But then the system crashed while ordering the two Note 7's. He said I could finish the order online and avoid the activation fee.

So I went online and added one phone to my cart and then the page would only load the header when I was viewing the shopping cart. Logged, out deleted the cart tried it over and over same issue.

Called customer support... 60 minutes later I was transfer transferred to someone who had the authority to order a Note. Finally success; Blue and Silver! I spent almost 8 hours of my day trying to order a phone. I'll be glad to have the Note Friday and no more crumbling Sprint service.

I'm still considering US Cellular if these setup issues continue.
[Verizon Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] Memp2Atl85:
Just got my confirmation text and debit card charged and I ordered my Black Onyx Note 7 on the 11th. I signed up for 2 day shipping but hopefully I get it sooner since I'm in Memphis.
[Verizon Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] billinaz:
I didnt get a text (never have on VZW orders), but they did charge my card.

I took a look at the order page, and now it shows completed instead of awaiting inventory. I will probably have the tracking number tomorrow.

I ordered the blue model on the 12th (after canceling two previous orders!) and I have next day delivery included on my plan.
[Verizon Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] jjayzx:
I didn't get a text either but I got an email.

On the tmobile thread they posted a screenshot of ours saying we're laughing at them and they said they should troll this thread.
[Verizon Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] Lmax579:
I phones are overrated pieces of sh!t, but then again we knew that. :)
[Verizon Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] Deterministic J:
Order status showing Completed now.

Color: Black Onyx

Date of order: 8/12
[Verizon Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] skillzo1:
I remember that being the case then i thought they did away with it. Really makes no difference. I kinda rather have it all paid off at once then add more on my monthly bill for the next few years.
[Verizon Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] bhead9318:
Pre-ordered blue coral on 8/4, I'm fairly certain I'll be going for the SD card. I stood there in the store for about 20 minutes staring between blue coral and black onyx and could not decide, until I realized my last two galaxy's have been the dark blue/black so I decided to go for something a little different.

Also I can't seem to get my order information to show up with the link that OP put at the bottom of the first post - I have my order number and location number but it won't seem to take any combination of that with my Verizon username, email, etc. Anyone have any ideas?
[Verizon Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] gr_exclamation:
Ordered the Silver Titanium on 8/3/16, and plan on getting the SD card.

[MENTION=5258712]bhead9318[/MENTION] - You should've received a confirmation email for your order that has a direct link to your order status.
[Verizon Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] Blackiisky:
Can someone clarify this for me,

"Purchase requirement varies, please check with your Carrier. Must submit Offer Claim Form and valid receipt by 9/18/16 at 11:59:59 PM ET"

the phone doesnt come out until the 19th so this must be me misunderstand the terms. When i was trying to follow through with the filling out the promotion page we need the MEID numbers and such from my phone which i wouldn't have.
[Verizon Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] thecarp1975:
I also ordered Coral Blue to switch things up. I'm curious though, does the blue model look darker in person than in all the photos?
[Verizon Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] bhead9318:
I think you have your months mixed up, that says must be filled out by September 18th whereas the phone is released August 19th.

I would say the blue coral is just a tad darker in person then what Verizon has posted on their site. I noticed it depends on what kind of light it's in, it really has some depth to it.

I can't add a bloody video or picture because XDA won't let me until I have 10 posts.. sigh. Can anyone point in the direction of the upload attachment button which I also can't seem to find, or do I need 10 posts for that too?
[Verizon Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] Blackiisky:
yeah thats true... lol thanks man.
[Verizon Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] jboogie1289:
I ordered Silver Titanium on 8/5 in the evening Central time through Vzw. My question for those on Vzw is, how were you able to select either gift without the receipt and IMEI #? That's what Samsung requested when I went to the site so I couldn't get any further progress until I got those items. Doing the Edge Plan as well with Vzw. Any tips or replies would be appreciated.
[Verizon Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] thecarp1975:
This will be the newest phone I'll have ever bought and the first I've ever pre-ordered. I've never done so much research on a phone since ordering. I hope it comes a little early, this having to wait is killing me!
[Verizon Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] billinaz:
Try this one

http://www.verizonwireless.com/vzw/ordertracking/index.jsp
[Verizon Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] billinaz:
We are all waiting for the phone to order the gift.

Seems Best Buy gave some of the gifts from their stores, I assume they will get their stock back from Samsung.
[Verizon Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] hehfahq:
Some T-Mobile customers were reporting that their delivery dates have changed from 8/19 to 8/28. I seriously hope this doesn't happen to us Verizon customers.
[Verizon Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] neyenlives:
Herein may lie a problem. If those gifts are allocated out of the 250k maximum mentioned on the Samsung promo website, according to this article in just the first two days over 200k people pre-ordered the Note 7.

Samsung Galaxy Note 7 Preorders Double That Of Galaxy S7: 200000 In Just 2 Days

http://www.techtimes.com/articles/1...-that-of-galaxy-s7-200-000-in-just-2-days.htm

Samsung does have he option of adding product to it so the limit doesn't have to stay at 250k. Doesn't mean they will.
[Verizon Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] bhead9318:
As far as I know none of us have actually selected our gift yet (unless you ordered directly from the Samsung site), the OP just wanted to know what gift we will select once we receive the phone. You're absolutely right, we can't select a gift until we have our physical phones with their IMEI #'s.

That is the same tracking page I got with my confirmation email, guess that's the tracker I'll have to use. Thanks!
[Verizon Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] jws86:
I just used this link. Thought these phones were supposed to arrive on or before the 19th? What is the point in preordering I get it late. Ordered mine on the evening of 8/3.

Gimme credit for hi jacking my thread lol.

anyways hope everyone will get their devices early. We are losing our mind over in the T-Mobile section.
[Verizon Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] st3ph3nbr!tt:
Anyone else pay the extra $15 for overnight shipping delivered by 10:30am, instead of the free two day shipping? I did. Hope it helps. Lol.

---------- Post added at 12:21 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:20 AM ----------

Also placed order at 12:03am 8-3 I'll let you know when I get any changes in status.
[Verizon Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] neyenlives:
You will get it "less later" than those who didn't pre-order... Lol
[Verizon Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] Team420:
I ordered the blue one, on 8/3. I'm still undecided on what I want to go with it.... the fit thing seems neat, and it's unlikely I will need 256gb of storage, so I'm leaning in that direction
[Verizon Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] jws86:
How encouraging haha
[Verizon Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] Justinphxaz:
You get a tracking number yet? Up until this, did it say "processing"? Mine still says that, I ordered a Black Onyx and a Silver Titanium Note 7 with free 2 day shipping on August 2nd....still no dice for me.
[Verizon Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] californiarailroader:
Lol Yep hehe

---------- Post added at 07:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:55 PM ----------

I never have either, just an email, though I usually know well ahead of the email, I check the order status often ;) [emoji16]
[Verizon Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] Deterministic J:
I only check it in the morning and at night. This morning it was showing PRE. Haven't received tracking but I'm not sure that I (personally) will since I'm on a business account.
[Verizon Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] billinaz:
I haven't gotten the email from VZW, just one from my card letting me know about the authorization.
[Verizon Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] billinaz:
I really like their hardware design (to a point, I would really miss wireless charging) and the thinness of the all metal body is something I really liked.

I did get an iPhone 6S plus, paid out the ass for the memory and started setting it up. The fingerprint recognition on the large round home button is much better than on the oval Samsung one. Facetime works much better than using Google Hangouts for video chat.

The software started pissing me off right away. Organizing photos was annoying, and it seemed like everything I did took 3 steps more than when using an Android.

After 1 day, it went back in the box and back to Verizon.

Its amazing how much a pain iTunes and moving files to/from the memory can be. And dont get me started with media format types.
[Verizon Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] billinaz:
You will. I am on a business account.

Instead of checking on that order status page, can you get to the page that shows all your business orders (the verizon enterprise page)? You can get it there when it is entered.

I just checked and if you are checking the status on the b2b.verizonwireless page (in first post) then you will get this when it ships:

Order Status

Order Date 08/10/2016

Order Number MB6338XXXXX

Order Status Your order has been shipped.

Tracking Number 7018242XXXX

I also get an email from VZW eventually with the tracking number.

If you can purchase phones on your line through the business account then you should be able to access the enterprise webpage.

What line of work are you in?
[Verizon Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] Lmax579:

[Verizon Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] Deterministic J:
Thanks for the info, I might check it tomorrow. I'm not too antsy about it yet. I was just providing information to those people that are and making sure the order didn't have issues. :good: If it comes earlier than Friday, I'll be surprised. If not, it's what I expected.

I work in IT for small to medium businesses. What about you? I used to help with custom ROMs when I had the time for it (HTC Thunderbolt baby!), but phones are close enough to what I want now that it doesn't bother me. I wouldn't complain if it ever does get root... :eek:
[Verizon Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] dennisjr631:
I'm like a lot of other people that are ditching the iPhone 6s Plus for note 7. I loved the note 5 but needed more storage. So I stuck with a 128gb 6s plus. I can't be more excited waiting for my coral blue note to come. It just stinks my delivery date went from Thursday to Friday. I don't get it ? You would think Samsung would want these phones in people's hands as soon as possible do they can brag about it and be free advertising. Especially with the new iPhone coming next month. This is gonna be one long week !!
[Verizon Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] billinaz:
I would love root.

Not on Samsung, is on Verizon. Out friends at T-Mobile are getting theirs already, some today. Verizon shipped mine, but put a hold on it for future delivery. Verizon just wants to be complicated about it.
[Verizon Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] billinaz:
The T-Mobile guys are all pissed because their phones were not delivered today, and most likely not until Thursday which is when some of the Verizon orders are due to be delivered.

It is not Verizon being complicated, it is Samsung requiring them not to deliver until the end of the week.
[Verizon Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] californiarailroader:
Who got theirs today from T-Mobile?
[Verizon Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] dennisjr631:
There delivery date can change at anytime. Mine said Thursday delivery then FedEx changed it tonight till Friday.
[Verizon Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] skillzo1:

Ordered Black Onyx on 8/11.

Got a text for the charge on my credit card.

Still waiting for a tracking #.
[Verizon Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] cadcamaro:
I feel the same way. I used to be an iPhone guy from the 3G to the 5 and that's when I switched to Android. Almost a year ago I switched to Verizon for the better signal and decided to try iPhone again since I couldn't bring my S6 from at&t. I tried liking it, but there were so many little things that piled up that annoyed me and I remembered why I switched to Android in the first place. Cheap/good expandable memory, app drawer, default applications and effortless media sync and playback are foreign ideas to Apple. Even the hardware is sub par with Apple. Premium pricing for what, some cheap aluminum that they call "space age" or the 1334x750 screen resolution they call "retina quality"? It's basically dog **** spray painted gold so people think it's fancy and luxurious.
[Verizon Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] 12iVaL116:
on the bottom of my tracking info it says future delivery requested. they requested it be delivered on the 19th even though it days 2 day and they shipped it out today.
[Verizon Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] markwebb:
Interesting that my S7E from BB shipped on that Tuesday of release week and I got it that Thursday. I got that shipping notice on that Tuesday. Let's see what happens today although my CC still says processing whereas the S7E was via PayPal, which I should have done this time around. Maybe I'll cancel and reorder via PayPal.
[Verizon Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] dwertz:
for some reason I doubt people will get them early. Could you imagine the push back if say T-mobile got them early and start registering them for the Fit 2 or 256gb sdcard and they ran out. People that pre-ordered and didn't get theirs would have a case against Samsung saying inventory ran out because certain providers took them all because they released early.
[Verizon Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] jackdforme:
I'm three days from retirement...
[Verizon Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] Kbrielle:
Yup I would be one of those people too. I would be very upset if I missed out on a promotion that was strictly for people who pre ordered early just because one carrier decided to give its customers their phones early. It would really suck.
[Verizon Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] markwebb:
Ok I am bored: just for kicks went to BB site and placed another order via PayPal credit and BB now indicates next Monday shipped delivery date but store pick up on Friday which I chose since store is 2 miles from me and PayPal immediately approved order. My original BB cc order still says processing. Let's see which is available first. I need a life.[emoji33]
[Verizon Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] st3ph3nbr!tt:
Fyi, my Verizon says shipping date of tomorrow, and my FedEx says delivery of Thursday by 10:30am. Since I paid for overnight priority, this all seems to line up. Looking forward to Thursday. Everyone that opted for free two day shipping is probably Friday, if it also ships Wednesday. I figure the TMO guys will either get thiers Thursday BC they get free overnight shipping... Or maybe Friday BC they may hold thiers till Thursday. Idk.
[Verizon Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] Mahlhavoc:
Fedex grabbed it in Tennessee, Tuesday the 16th 6:58 AM, it's on its way, says estimate delivery the 19th. Took standard 2 day delivery. 2 phones, one silver one blue for the wife. ?
[Verizon Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] Kbrielle:
I wonder if there is a way to change my shipping speed probably not. I didn't see an option for overnight for me. It all had delivery dates of the 19th.
[Verizon Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] dwertz:
I was told by Verizon corporate that the phone will arrive the same day regardless of shipping priority. They said that priority was set up for if the phone was in stock and not pre-order. Although you might get it earlier in the day
[Verizon Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] st3ph3nbr!tt:
Someone called in and were told they'd have to cancel and reorder to change it. I had to look for it, but I knew I wanted it asap either way.

Has anyone who ordered from Samsung gotten any news about shipping?
[Verizon Note 7  Guides, News, & Discussion] Katmeat:
I have a Verizon business account and get free next-day shipping. My Black N7 ordered 8-10 was charged to my account overnight, and the tracking number shows the phone delivered to Fed-Ex in Memphis with instructions to hold it for delivery on 8-18-2016 by 3 pm.
