Well it's clear the reps don't know what's going on. I just got off with Verizon and she said her system was updated at 12:45 and that now my phone shows a 12/26 ship date.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] tttuning:
Where are u located...I just got off the phone with them
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] ibcody:
Don't count on it. They told me the same thing on my original ship date (10/28) and after waiting all day it got pushed back to 12/2.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] tttuning:
I'm calling back later if I don't hear anything
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Harleydroid:
Indiana. I just got off the phone also.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] spotmark:
I just got off the phone with them again, and got the same answer. Delayed until 12/02. If it shows up and I can't dePixel8 it, I think I'm going to tell them I want to send it back, and expect them to waive the restocking fee.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] biggiestuff:
I posted to twitter to see if there is anything they can do versus the phone agents
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] tttuning:
This is what I have looking on my Verizon app......
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Harleydroid:
That's cool. When did you preorder?
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] tttuning:
10/20.....I called today around 1 and they didn't say it shipped....but that it should ship today....still no tracking info. So I don't know
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Drashnar:
That's what the app on my phone says as well. But if I login online to the website via my laptop, it shows an arrival date of 12/9. What does the website say for you?
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] tttuning:
11/18
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Harleydroid:
I can't pull my order up with the My Verizon app at all but website still shows processing and ship date today. I preorder 10/18
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] booked:
My order still says it should ship out today and still processing also.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] WilliamStern:
Ok now I'm pissed! Its past midnight where I am right now, and my order status has changed for the worse. Just yesterday afternoon my status was for my phone to ship out today 11/18. I called customer service today, and was told that I was all good, and that my info went through their fraud check, and my phone should ship out later in the day. I was also told that I'll get my ship info emailed to late in the evening, if not by Monday.

Long story short after reading this thread, I went ahead and checked on my status again, and now the ship date has changed to 12/26. Wtf?!?!?! How the hell is this even possible? That's just absolutely absurd! My order date was placed on 10/19. Ill be getting on the phone with Verizon in the morning and figure out what's going on? Waiting 1 month for the phone was bad enough, but 2 months... I don't think I can't wait that long for this phone? Ill keep you all posted once I talk to them.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] disco1224:
I talked to Verizon today and they told me my phone is shipping out tomorrow but Im not going to believe it till I see it.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] kidbudi:
Did you call them or chat? I chatted last night and the associate guaranteed me my phone would be shipped specifically at 8pm on the January 13th.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] disco1224:
I chatted with them. Had a different question to ask them and figured I'd ask about my order. They didn't give me any specific ship time but they said tomorrow. I highly doubt it but we will see.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] LaosPerson:
Thanks for that however I know what the bootloader and root does, I can look up how to root but I'm not going to because I don't want to, if I were to install a custom ROM and kernel etc, I'd just look at the other threads. Also I unlocked my bootloader successfully and am now on the January update. But it was just a little strange seeing the message at boot up about it being unlocked. Now back to the topic. Anyone else getting their 128gb pixels shipped out?
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] jamezr:
When and what did you order?
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] disco1224:
I ordered a silver xl 128gb on 12/11 and had a ship date of 1/13.

According to rep as of an hour ago, it's shipping tomorrow.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] jamezr:
Nice! I ordered the same model and size as you only on 12/9 with expected ship date of 1/13 so hopefully it ships like yours!
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] hovercraftdriver:
It's hilarious that you say that...I posted a comment that went something like ”I'm amazed that a MOD can come in and moderate but someone with a clue can't come in in address the concerns of the customers”.

I received an email about 30 minutes later stating my post had been deleted:

"Hello, You have received this email because the content you posted below has been rejected by our moderators."

I thought it was funny ironic and it pissed me off at the same time...True story ?
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] RoboScout:
Yeah... can we really expect Verizon to not pull another bait and switch with this weeks shipping date. All orders that were "guaranteed" to ship last Friday 1/6 didn't get a notification that they were pushed until 1/6 at like 8pm. Don't want peoples hopes to get to high, especially since not all the November orders have shipped at this point...
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] disco1224:
My hope is definetly not high, I don't expect it to ship as a matter of fact especially after all of us posting and keeping updated with each other.

Its just a shame that the sellers can't inform us at all.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] advid:
Have any of the 11/25 people had their phones shipped out yet? The spreadsheet says no but maybe it's not up to date... It seems to me that Verizon completely ran out of the 128s after fulfilling most of the 11/24 orders
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Sportscon15:
I ordered the VS PIXEL XL 128GB on 11/25 with a 1/6 ship date and have had no updates other than the email stating that it should ship 3/3.

---------- Post added at 03:50 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:49 AM ----------

Mine has not shipped yet
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] MarkStinger:
Just chatted with Verizon and they provided me a different link to check the status of my previous orders. When I ordered my VS 128GB XL I thought it was going to be shipped to me. However, the page below shows In-Store Pickup under the order info. Is anyone else seeing a different option than what you were expecting? I'm not worried if it goes to the store, I just wonder if those orders are the ones taking longer.

https://www.verizonwireless.com/vzw/ordertracking/index.jsp
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] JettMartinez:
I've found the chat reps are complete useless and are just making things up.

One told me on 1/6 that my order had already shipped (11/24 order, Silver XL 128gb). It certainly had not. When I called the online sales reps, they told me back-ordered until March. I had stayed connected with the chat rep while I called, and then she told me that I could just go to the retail store and pick one up. That of course was also false. No explanation for two totally false pieces of information.

I hope like heck that your order is shipping, especially since mine was an earlier order and should ship as well if they have them. But I wouldn't get your hopes up too much based on the chat reps. :(

---------- Post added at 09:59 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:57 AM ----------

11/24 and mine hasn't shipped. Silver 128 XL.

---------- Post added at 10:01 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:59 AM ----------

That link for me just says that I haven't had any orders ship in the last 150 days. My order history page still says processing with no estimated ship date.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] xVallex:
Checked the link and mine says in store pick up as it should. Really not getting my hopes up on 1/20. Was just reading an article about the HTC U line of phones, they are taking pre orders now and not shipping the phones for 2 months. They can't even get their own line out on time.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] rfranken:
When looking at the spreadsheet it would seem we are doomed.

The odds of getting them when we should is not looking good with so many saying they got pushed back two months.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] jamezr:
Called Verizon just now...My VS 128 XL order 12/9 was estimated to ship today 1/13. She said it would ship today and I will get tracking info soon. Not holding my breath....but would love to be pleasantly surprised!
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Sportscon15:
Good luck. I ordered the same thing on 11/25 and haven't received mine yet
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] jamezr:
Horrible customer service from Verizon...right after I got off the phone with a CS rep who told me my order would ship today....got an email saying my order is delayed until 3/03. Called back and spoke with another rep and there is nothing I can do...except wait.....
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Skeeter35:
Did you really believe you would get your phone shipped before those of us that ordered before you? :confused:
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] jamezr:
lol...I have seen others get there phone after I order mine.... Hope is all we have sometimes :(
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] hokiealumnus:
Sigh. This is all making me think about cancelling and getting a 128G regular pixel. Wish I hadn't already received a case and screen protector.

....On a -totally- unrelated note, does anyone have interest in a case and screen protector for a Pixel XL? :angel:
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] rfranken:
lol.

I hear yah. I'm a 12/15/16 orderer.....looks as I'm guaranteed to be pushed back to March at least, if not more as everyone before me is getting pushed back. That just isn't ok.

I'd cancel for something like a samsung s8, but that won't be out before March or I'm thinking more like April for my order....what else can one do?

edit - I also have a case and spare chargers for a phone I might just have to cancel my order of.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] spotmark:
Like I said to a fellow in another thread, if you really want the XL, don't settle for the Pixel. You'll always be second guessing yourself. Wait it out, you'll be glad you did.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] advid:
I had two different chat reps tell me 3/10 and 3/3...They really are making up things at this point. I did manage to get a $50 bill credit though, YMMV
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] disco1224:
I know what we all can do.

Cancel all our orders!

I'm actually really considering this to be honest, I got to thinking by the time we actually get these phones they will be releasing a newer version not to long after or go back to a Samsung...

Since I have time to think about it I am going to really consider this and make a decision soon.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] madsquabbles:
I know I will if mine gets pushed back. I don't need to upgrade since my Nexus 6 is still going strong for me. I just figured for $360 why not upgrade.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] specd_out:
Just to let you guys know , I got my Pixel XL 32gb in Quiet Black yesterday. I ordered it on 12/24 with a eta date of 1/20. I can confirm that both my XL and my wifes standard Pixel both had the Oct update and I was successfully able to unlock both bootloaders. Hope fully this will help anyone wondering what the 1/20 shipments are coming with software wise.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] disco1224:
I cancelled, screw it, I don't need it that bad.

Rep told me they have no idea when they will get them in, it may be longer then March.

Good luck all!
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] fiveighteen:
Hey, look, it's the first honest thing that Verizon has said since October!
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] disco1224:
Hey that's true, unless they lied and it shows up on my doorstep Monday. Lol
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Sportscon15:
Had anyone that had the original ship date of 1/6 received their phones? Verizon and/or Google should really be compensating all of us for having to wait so long
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] DroidForLife33:
My phone is suppose to ship on 1/20 but I don't think it's going to happen. I would cancel the order if it gets bumped to another date. But it's only going to cost me eight bucks a month for the phone.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] fiveighteen:
Nope, no change in my order status since being bumped from 1/6. I talked Verizon into a $100 bill credit after spending an hour on chat (for ordering two 128GB XLs). If Google has any amount of decency, they will eventually do something, even if it's just Google Play Store credit.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] xVallex:
The problem for me with canceling, is right now there is no phone, other than the Iphone 7 plus that would be a decent replacement.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] jamezr:
I'm going to cancel my order with Verizon. Buy one on swappa and use it on T-MOBILE. Not going to reward Verizon after being lied to about shipping the other day. Rep said my 12/9 order with estimated ship date of 1/13 was shipping.....Only to get the backorder email a few minutes later with March shipping.

I am not going to wait 4 months for a phone. The Galaxy S8 will shipping late March early April for mid April delivery anyway.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] scooby1024:
Cancelled my order after learning 1/13 turned into 3/3 per Verizon rep. She did say she was sorry tho... Lol

Five weeks for nothing. I say may as well wait for snapdragon 835 at this point. ?
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] jamezr:
At least your rep was honest with you. Mine lied to me.... then within minutes I got the March delayed delivery email. Horrible customer service. I called back to report what had happened. But I'm sure nothing will come of it. Oh well bought one on swappa and it will be delivered Thursday.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] SomeFknGuy:
Could be worse. I haven't gotten a single email from them and my 1/13 ship date just turned into the whole "We don't know when it will ship, but we'll let you know when it does" spiel on the online order status page... I'm going to wait until tomorrow and see if they have an update if not then I'll drop my order because I've already waited a month and a half and haven't gotten anywhere
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] madsquabbles:
don't get roped into rewarding Verizon for screwing up by buying another phone from them... is it really important to upgrade? You can always just keep your existing phone and spend that money on another nice gadget.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] jamezr:
That's my take too.....Don't reward them for their bad behavior.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] disco1224:
I'm cancelled, gonna wait for the S8.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] MarkStinger:
Swappa only has the 32GB models right now, which if I'm not mistaken you could order through Verizon and get faster than the 128's. Not positive but I'm waiting on a VS 128GB XL. As far as canceling, yes that is an option and rewarding Verizon or Google is not something I am trying to do. However, unless I want to pay $700+ via Swappa or wait for the S8 or another phone, I'm going to be paying much higher than just waiting on the Pixel.

I did think of canceling and getting the Moto Z Force which had a very similar promo price around the same time I ordered the Pixel but that promo is now over and my #1 choice was the Pixel. For now I wait with plans this will take some time.

I do hope that HTC/Google will suddenly have found a way to mass produce 1000's of units and surprise everyone with an update that our phones are all being shipped. :laugh: Wishful thinking, I know.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] hokiealumnus:
I really want the Pixel and unfortunately am willing to wait. It's the only phone I want on the market, and I'm ready to upgrade when it comes. Plus I have those accessories already. Here's hoping HTC's contract with Google is more compelling than that piece of garbage they announced last week!
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] xVallex:
Looks like I might be getting my pixel xl today. Was delivering to my Verizon on my route and was joking with the manager who is a friend of mine that if my order gets pushed to March I was canceling. He then tells me he has a pixel xl in store that was just canceled because the guy who ordered it never showed up or responded to phonecalls for over a week. The only difference is it's black and I ordered silver but at this point I don't care. Pixel xl 128 gb is my first concern. He's checking to see if he can cancel my original order and give my the black one on the original deal. I'll update later.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Sportscon15:
I thought I saw a bunch of the people that ordered around 11/24 and 11/25 starting to get tracking numbers. Have any of those orders arrived?
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] JU57US:
Yeah, a few reported that they got theirs already, sometime between 1/11 and 1/13. I don't know that many came back to update the spreadsheet though. All were reported on 7.1 October build and unlockable with dePixel8 so far. I haven't heard a single report of a VZW phone shipping with 7.1.1 on it yet.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Sportscon15:
I ordered my VS XL 128gb on 11/25 and haven't had any updates. Order page hasn't changed since the day I ordered either
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] JU57US:
That's about the cutoff time, order date of 11/25. What was your original ship date? Did you ever get an email?

I ordered 11/25 but then canceled and reordered on 12/17 for the better promo. Expected ship date of 1/20, and no change on my preorder page either. I expect to either get an email saying it shipped on 1/20, or an email on 1/20 saying I got bumped back to March. Seems it's pretty hit-or-miss lately what people are reporting.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Sportscon15:
My original ship date was 1/6. Yes, I got the email saying it changed to 3/3. My order page still shows 1/6 but still shows as a preorder
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] xVallex:
Well I'm now the proud owner of a Quite Black 128 GB pixel XL. Feel sorry for the guy who's phone this was, but he was a no show for over a week. Had October firmware but I went ahead and took the new update as I'm not interested in tinkering at this point. The only problem I may have is as of right now I'm paying $10 a month. The manager is checking with a Verizon rep to try to get me my original trade in deal which would get me the XL for free with my Note 5 trade in. Worst case scenario, I lose that deal and get this one.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] ahent:
Just saw this at android authority. It says demand is still high for Pixel handsets. http://www.androidauthority.com/pixel-demand-high-verizon-743442/
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] MarkStinger:
It's currently one of the top phones. That won't be like that forever though. Get it together Google/HTC. :mad:
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] RLPSZ:
Ordered mine 12/18 and the expected ship date has been 1/20 without any changes. Fingers crossed it remains the same and arrives in a few days. Will update you guys, of course.

QB Pixel XL 128GB
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] fiveighteen:
I was wondering if they were basing this statement off the Verizon/Google ship dates, or if they actually know something we don't. I followed their source to FierceWireless.com where I found the following:

That doesn't exactly help prove it either way. Then I found in a separate article:

I don't subscribe to Wave7's research notes to see exactly what they said, but it looks like FierceWireless is simply regurgitating the ship dates from Big Red and blending them with data from Wave7 that shows high demand. I'm still going to expect the phone before March, despite the delay. A Verizon rep told me she was putting in a ticket for me to receive a order status update by tomorrow. I'll update if it says anything interesting.

[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Sportscon15:
I just received a email from Verizon just moments ago that shows a new ship date of 1/31.

I ordered the VS XL 128gb on 11/25 to ship 1/6. On 1/6, I got the dreaded 3/3 email. Hopefully this is a good sign
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] fiveighteen:
Got the same email at 7pm.

VS XL 128GB, ordered 11/23, OG ship 1/6 delayed to 3/3.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Sportscon15:
I just hope Verizon still honors the black Friday trade in deal
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] fiveighteen:
You say that like they're going to have the option not to. ;)
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Daveytree3:
Ordered a black 128 gb Pixel Xl on Nov. 25th. I was supposed to receive on the 6th of January. Got the "delayed until March" email. But all of a sudden today, my card was charged! No change in the order page from Verizon though.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Sportscon15:
Even more good news. Keep us updated
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] JU57US:
I'm guessing a few of these "all of a sudden we have a phone for you" deals are from people who haven't paid for or picked up their phones, or canceled orders. But the email to the remaining 1/6'ers about a 1/31 ship date is much more promising. Then again, that could just be the response to people getting mad at the March estimate and demanding $50 line credits. It's easier to swallow a delay if it only happens 2 weeks at a time...
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] advid:
Looks like Verizon got in another shipment, my card was charged as well. No change in pre-order nor order status, but it shouldn't be long now! I ordered a quite black XL 128GB on 11/25.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] fiveighteen:
Looking like Quite Black is shipping now and Very Silver is two weeks out.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Milkman328:
I as well ordered a QB 128 GB XL on 11/25 and also received a 3/10 ship date after it didn't ship on 1/6. Just woke to a text(no email) saying my order was received on 1/17 and I will receive tracking info once shipped. I then checked and sure enough my card was charged. Hopefully it ships today!!
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Skeeter35:
Same here. Ordered 11/25, got text last night and card charged. QB 128gb Pixel xl
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Milkman328:
Mobile app says it shipped the 17, but no info as of yet.... Probably go out today
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] b4u2:
Two more days to find out if mine is delayed.

If Samsung actually makes a Note 8 I would probably want that device. Anyone pushed Verizon for the right to an upgrade because of the delay? Just curious if it would work. I did the Black Friday trade in deal so not sure how I could make that work. My kids have lines that are eligible for an upgrade later this year. Might just take it to get myself the Note when it comes out.
[Google Pixel XL Guides, News, & Discussion] djRamage:
I have been checking this spreadsheet (and reorganizing) 5 times a day!

Don't forget to update with new Expected Ship Dates, Received Dates, and your FW so we can figure out a cut off point if VZW starts updating to Nov or Dec security patches!
