[MENTION=4933524]RevLauren[/MENTION] I had two receipts from both purchases AND used my Samsung account that I redeemed the note 7 promotions with AND a receipt from getting the second version. They approved the three proof of purchase submissions and signing in with my account that got approved immediately. So I used the discount 4 times and thankfully had two iPhone 5s and two s6s to trade in. I'm hooking my wife and her parents up with the extra discounted notes.

Hopefully no one will but don't hate me for doing this. my wife and I owned 4 separate note 7s so I don't feel bad.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] whmgreen:
I bought one note 7 on at t and sent that one back through at t. I bought a second from Craigslist and sent that one back through Samsung. Now they will only allow me to have one note 7 promotion instead of two because I don't have a receipt for the one from Craigslist. Guess I'm out of luck!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] markwebb:
^^^Though I have a receipt for my former Note 7, I wasn't asked to provide one. it just accepted my original Samsung email address and deducted the credit. Is the receipt required when you ship to Samsung the trade in phone?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] BigMosley:
I have 2 Samsung accounts (both the same name just ones Yahoo and ones Gmail) and I must have logged into both in the short time I had both Note 7 devices because one Note7 is on one account and other Note7 is on the other account. I only have 1 trade-in phone so I will not be using the other emails Note7 promo capability. I have thought about finding another Galaxy S5 phone and selling the second Note8 and Gear360 but frankly I'm too lazy to throw the stuff on eBay or Swappa and ship the stuff and all that.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] droidrev71:
Awesome to hear! I hope you enjoy your note 8!

"Be one of the first"

What a load of ? Samsung...
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] bigmase01:
Here it is... Alcantara Dark Gray from Best Buy.. now just need the phone haha!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] JayArthur27:
How is it a "Note 7 Advantage" deal if I pre ordered, paid in full, and won't have my device shipped out until October 1st? ??? They're gonna force my hand and make me cancel. Might as well wait a couple more weeks for the phone I really want anyway, the Pixel XL2. I feel so disrespected by Samsung behind this bs.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Itchiee:
My N8 is still in pre-order status from the 28th and card hasn't been charged... I guess the demand was too great... So I'll wait. Not pissing and moaning... At least I have the means to get one.

My girl just ordered hers last night so it won't be arriving for awhile lol

Just received a shipping notification from Samsung with a UPS tracking number.

it's lit, got tracking number
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] droidrev71:
Just received my shipping info too!! It's happening guys! Yay!

No info on ups yet. I didn't pay for faster shipping so I'm guessing I'll have it Wednesday.

My Note 8 just shipped!!! :) :) :)
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] 2015Ducatimulti:
yeah I called Samsung yesterday to cancel my order but I woke this morning with a Shipping notice too, I paid for next day shipping and its UPS tracking number, but no info on UPS website
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] droidrev71:
I placed my order on the 24th. I ordered the black one.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] mhill1986:
Ordered the 26th. Still on preorder status.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] dzigns:
I had two pre-orders from Samsung and crazy as it is...my order placed on the 25th is shipped whereas my order placed on the 24th is still showing confirmed. Doesn't seem quite fair if they are shipping out later orders before the earliest pre-orders.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] ekerbuddyeker:
Mine shipped too. Ordered 24th.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] elbarto7:
Are they going to send email shipments?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] 2015Ducatimulti:
yeah I received 2 emails from Samsung, one was the shipping of the 360 cam, and the second email was the shipping of my Note 8:good:
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Kawaisa:
Ordered on the 24th
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] nuclearrage:
Crap, I ordered on 24th and the hold came off my cc and it still says pre-order. This isn't fun. Off course I am checking this thread and my Samsung account hourly. Still fun tho
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] mardukeme:
Same here mine shipped too, Ordered 24th.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] MorePAIN:
You should call them I had the same issue and I've been told it was at risk and a hold was placed. The 1st time they told me to cancel and try again which I did but now held up again. Not sure how or why it's at risk since I used their financing company TD BANK and got approved. Utterly ridiculous. I've made 14 calls, been on social media, emails everyone tells me to call e commerce but they all tell me the same thing that they can't help and I have to wait. I'm probably going to cancel the order and just take my money elsewhere
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] cjvail13:
I just received my tracking info. Ordered on 08-24-17 with a note 7 promo for those of you wondering. Also its for a Note 8 unlocked.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] bergsim:
I just got email with the shipping info
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] BigMosley:
Sounds like everyone who's getting emails ordered the 24th??
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] zonly1:
I ordered on the 24th, (T-Mobile/Orchid Gray) but no email as of yet. So not stressing over it though. I find some of these posts quite humorous.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Suntzupa:
Got 3 separate emails directly from Samsung with a shipping number.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] MorePAIN:
My 1st order was the 24th but I was advised it wouldn't to thru and told to cancel and retry. Still waiting on an order confirmation for the 28th dude. This sucks
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Con_Valian:
A email with my Note 8 shipping number just arrived. I ordered on the 25th.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] hagalah:
for those who got ups tracking, when is your shipping date originally listed on ur order confirmation email? I oredered on 8/26 and shipping date is 9/11
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Suntzupa:
September 11th. Ordered on the 24th.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Con_Valian:
Ordered 8/25 original shipping was 9/11.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] RevLauren:
Got tracking number this morning, although the originally scheduled shipment date was Sep. 11 (ordered on August 24).
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] redlee90:
Ordered 24th got tracking number this morning. Original shipping was 11th.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] harveydent:
The unlocked version is heavily backordered. You can't expect them to ship you a non-existent phone just because "you feel disrespected". I ordered on Aug 28, wanted an unlocked one too but it said it was going to ship on Sept 21. So I went for the TMo locked version instead that had a ship date of Sept 11.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] RevLauren:
[MENTION=1608347]Craleb[/MENTION] Thanks for good advice.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] markwebb:
Just got my shipping notice: Ordered on the 24, Note 7 offer and TMO version.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] johnnybrav0:
Order mine on 8/26 confirmation email say ship 9/11, unlock. Could those that are getting shipped share the state its shipping too? Reason was when I order my TV on from Samsung.com on a special deal and my friend who lived in MN order two days after got it first before me. I noticed every time he places his order even if it's two days later he would still received it days before me. I mention this to Samsung rep. But didn't go anywhere. I'm from AZ. I have a feeling I won't get mine for awhile. As I have experience with Samsung shipments. They tend to ship to the people closes to their D. Just thought I shared my experience out there.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] BlueFox721:
I ordered on the 24th with original shipping date of 9/11...all order items except DEX has shipped with UPS tracking...UPS App says nothing to track yet...

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] JayArthur27:
I'm not trying to hear you caping for a company that promised all pre order customers taking advantage of the Note 7 "deal" would be one of the first to have their phones. I'm not going to go to the trouble of posting the screenshots, I'm sure you saw the same lies I did. Horrible way to treat customers, but they do it cuz of attitudes like yours. Just accept the bs with a smile and try to down others for feeling disrespected. Beat it goofball.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] BlueFox721:
Who is a goofball? Anyone, everyone, or......? This is the forum to share updates...if you do not like it, you do not have to login...your choice...no need for name calling...
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Josh LaCelle:
My "unlocked" version shipped! So not all are back-ordered!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] harveydent:
Meh, life is too short to get salty about a non-existent phone. Hope you have a better day!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] sharingan5791:
I ordered on the 24th as well and I haven't gotten an email either. It's Sunday i find it weird though that they are sending these out now. Especially when labor day is on Monday. There probably won't be much movement. But good to see some people getting theirs.

---------- Post added at 05:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:25 PM ----------

When did you order your unlocked version?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] JayArthur27:
I tried to respond directly to the person who responded to my original post. Guess I messed that up. Not on here a lot. I usually just read the threads. I don't appreciate stating my concern as a paying customer that was lied to by Samsung only to be scolded by someone taking up for what is clearly wrong. It's CLEARLY wrong.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] allklrnoflr:
I ordered on 25th Tmobile/Black, just got 2 emails for the phone and camera. Both UPS which is odd because I thought they use FedEx. They don't show up yet in the MyUPS app either.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] BlueFox721:
Lol...just hit the reply on their post to direct your statement...cheer up though, it is a beautiful day in the neighborhood...
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] JayArthur27:
Thanks for the update, I guess some people just say anything in defense of the companies who use deceitful advertising practices. Good for you, actually getting your phone within the timeframe promised by the company. Enjoy!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Josh LaCelle:
On the 24th when I got up which was around 9:40am est time. I would reckon you should see an email soon! They usually ship FedEx. So I am surprised these are UPS tracking numbers!

---------- Post added at 05:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:37 PM ----------

It is just a phone man! I am sure Samsung is trying! They aren't getting 100 orders but rather thousands! You will probably get an email soon!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] JayArthur27:
Yes I've figured it out now. Not trying to start any online back & forth here, just very frustrated when a company promises one thing and does another, with no accountability in the process. I just want my phone. If that makes me a whiner, or whatever, so be it. It's not a beautiful day when people are getting their phones a full 3 weeks before mines even ships :(:mad::mad::mad:
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] BlueFox721:
We might not get them until the 11th, UPS and FedEx have both held deliveries for the carriers before...lol...you are still in the game..
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] harveydent:
So order it now too! He just said his was shipped even if it was unlocked. So you'll get one way sooner than October
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Bildo41383:
Ordered my unlocked on the 24th. Received email today saying it has shipped, and would arrive 2 days from ship email date. Fingers crossed ?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Reji007:
I just received the same emails. Ordered Tmobile/Orchid Gray on 8/25.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] leyvatron:
I also received shipped emails for the phone, sdcard, and wireless charger.

Unlocked Note 8 ordered on the 25th.

Looks like the labels were created with no info when tracked. If they start to ship tomorrow (Labor Day), we can see the phones on Wednesday.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] markwebb:
I sincerely doubt it this time: Samsung wants these phones in people's hands before the iPhone announcement and, to a lesser extent though probably not part of the plan, it is fulfilling the void with the Essential phone fiasco (just go on Swappa and most are selling and admitting because of Note 8 shipments, let alone the Essential phone letdown issues).
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] fatboypup:
After ordering a gear S3 directly from Samsung and having to just go buy one in best buy because their orders are so slow .... I'll never get a phone from them directly.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] zonly1:
Ordered 8.24 Tmo Orchid Gray...just got the shipping confirmation/UPS Tracking Number. Nothing showing in tune UPS app yet though. I'm guessing Tuesday, but who knows.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] xile6:
So had an online chat with them and tmobile.

I order mines from samsung and my wife from tmobile.

Samsung said that they will "Start" shipping Sept 5th via fedex.

This doesnt mean everyone will get ship then.

Also most shipping is 2-3 days so if they start on the 5th some people will get them the 6th(if your close to there warehouse) while other 7 or 8.

And the free gift will not ship with it. They said that would be an extra 2-3 weeks later.

So its safe to say that we should be getting them ahead of other places.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] RevLauren:
NOT a "scolding," (since everyone is entitled to feel what they feel), but more of a puzzlement. I'm not seeing "lies" and "deceitful practices" in the way orders are being fulfilled. And since the first orders that were schedule for the 11th are now shipping, that seems a good sign that things are ahead of schedule. I wasn't expecting my unlocked Note 8 to ship until at least the 11th and even then I presumed there might be a delay given the rush of orders they must be getting. While I received a tracking number this morning, the UPS system isn't updated yet. I was also very pleased to receive a $425 discount for trading in my Note 5, along with a choice of additional perks for free. So I guess what I'm saying is that perspective may be helpful in assuaging one's resentment. We do live in a society where instant gratification has become the order of the day, but that doesn't mean that patience is no longer a virtue. For ME, taking the long view gives me a much more peaceful state of mind. I have a phone, well more than one phone, and I can communicate with the world, and my quality of life is something for which I'm grateful. It's ridiculously hot in Southern California, BUT I don't live in Houston. My grandson just said "grandma" for the first time--how cool is that? So, all in all, unless Samsung fails to send me my phone within a

reasonable

time, I'd rather think the best of their efforts rather than the worst. Just sayin' ...

When did you order the unlocked note 8?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Josh LaCelle:
The 24th in the morning hours.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] myechophone:
Thank you. I ordered 29th. I am surely in the back order status... Sept end Oct delivery
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Josh LaCelle:
It might ship sooner than you think! Samsung originally said the 11th and we already have some shipping!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] BlueFox721:
Mine are the same, I elected to pay for expedited shipping as well so as soon as it gives a shipping date, the order states that it will all be delivered the next day...I'm betting on having hands on the morning of the 6th...the 7th for those with free shipping...:laugh:, although I remember that delays happen...that's when I go postal on the shipping fairies :angel:...
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] JayArthur27:
Maaaaaannnnnnnnnn all I'm saying is that they promised, through advertising, that if I utilized the "Note 7 Advantage" I would be receiving my phone by 9/14. That's it. Now they can't live up to their promise. Jeez, I have a valid complaint and I'm the one getting sermons. Save it please. I have every right to feel the way I do. I'm justifiably upset, I never said I hate the world or am incapable of appreciating the joys of life. I also never stated that I ordered an unlocked version, the advertising I will attach clearly states that the unlocked ones would be late. I just thought I could come to a forum like this and voice my displeasure. Next time I'll take it elsewhere so as not to mess up y'all feng shui around here.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] zonly1:
Not trying to start anything here, but what makes you so certain that you won't have your phone by the 14th?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] BlueFox721:
Actually they stated that Note 7 orders would be the first to enjoy their device...same difference though...I'm with you...but it is the way they always do pre-orders...have you received confirmation, and ship status yet? What day did you order? If you paid for expedited shipping, you would still have on the 6th if they ship on the 5th...you are still in...I am just relaxing because it is always like this...and if they do ship late, you may be able to get further discounts and compensation...In some ways, I hope my order gets delayed so I can get extras cheaper...anyway, don't let "The Man" get you down, "life is to short".:cool:

When did you take that screen shot of the site saying unlocked note8 no longer available for Sep 14 delivery? I ordered on Sep 1st and guess that I'll have to wait longer since I got the unlocked and preordered somewhat lateish.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] JayArthur27:
Because they sent me an email with the shipping date being October 1st. When I called to inquire, it was confirmed by Samsung. So I'm just a little upset and considering taking my money elsewhere. Didn't mean to ruffle anyone's feathers.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] smalltownbird:
You see the little 3 next to the ship date? That means there is fine print which probably states you are not guaranteed to get it that day. Also, how is an advertisement a promise? I didn't know all ads were a company promising things too us...
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] BlueFox721:
If you ordered the unlocked one, they just ran out of pre-order stock...nothing to do then but get a carrier version..some swapped to carrier version so that they could get by the 14th...

---------- Post added at 08:49 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:45 PM ----------

Advertising is a promise, in a sense...that's how people get suits won with false advertising....however, disclaimers are used to explain while supplies last...I wonder why if someone is upset and trying to rationalize their issues why we can't be helpful in calming the sulituation instead of beating each other up...
