I bought an iPhone 5s for $80 and will be sending that in. Did you ever register your Note 7/used a Samsung account on it (S-Health, Samsung Pay, Pen-up, got themes/apps from the Galaxy Store, etc). If you never got an email, you can go to the site for the Note 7 promo and submit your proof of purchase (usually reciept or EIP agreement, credit card statement, etc.) and you'll get a link to get $425 off your Note 8 purchase.

I have posted this several times from a supervisor.... I'll just leave this right here
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] BigMosley:
If this is true, then why does my order still only show PRE-ORDER (ordered Unlocked on Aug.28th) and my credit card charge now has disappeared on my credit card?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Jayster0966:
Ordered on the 24th and mine still shows pre-ordered. It is the unlocked version though which usually ships a tad bit later than the carrier versions.

Charge has not even been deducted on my Samsung account.

Feel a delay is coming. :(
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] briwil:
Yes, I've seen this posting, but I doubt very seriously you spoke to anyone of authority or knowledge through customer service. I'm sure they claimed they were though.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] sharingan5791:
I ordered on the 24th. My phone is in shipped status right now. I didn't use the Note 7 promo even though I have it. I ordered at midnight pacific time zone. And the email about promotion eligibility for having my note 7 didn't come via email from Samsung until around 8am in the morning. So oh well.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Steigerelli:
Thank you, that's what I was trying to confirm!

I'm happy for my US cousins; Samsung UK are not great, we didn't even get the Note5!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Corruption Inc:
Very strange. I ordered unlocked on the 25th and I've received shipping info. Obviously you ordered before me, so you should already have shipping info... something is weird here.

Comparatively speaking, I find it strange that some people got e-mails from Samsung about the Note 7 offer. I did not. But I read about it online on "release" day (August 23rd right?), and found the link on the website when I went to preorder. If someone wasn't as diligent as I, they could have presumably missed out on this offer as Samsung didn't send me an email about it, and there was one little link on the website about it.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] bigmase01:
Haha you are assuming Sammy is lying.. i got transferred to a supervisor.. it's pretty simple, just ask for one.. all the movement will start tonight/early morning. UPS will be back to work then. Again, just sit back and relax, and stop over thinking [emoji3]
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Corruption Inc:
Happy to hear that! I was really confused because you ordered the same phone before me.

I bought a Galaxy S5 on ebay to trade in. As long as it functions and the screen isn't cracked, all is good. When it's all said and done, I will break even. I had $420 left on my LG V20 to pay off before I could "upgrade" with Verizon. I coughed it up, but I didn't want to waste my mint LG V20 as the trade-in device.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] briwil:
I don't think Sammy is lying, I think the customer service person in the Philippines that you spoke to is lying.

But ok, enough of this, I will stay hopeful.

Screenshot?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] SuperDad3Gs:
I did not take a screenshot of the backordered screen, but as of this morning it has changed to shipped.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] burrzoo:
Placed my original order for a black unlocked via Note 7 promo then canceled order on Aug. 26th and placed a new order for an Orchid Gray AT&T model. I was too afraid that I would not be able to utilize AT&T Wifi calling with the unlocked phone (although down the road it might have been possible but I need Wifi Calling ASAP since I have crappy coverage at my house). Up until today there was no updates to my order on Samsung.com but this afternoon it states "Shipped!" Very happy but like everyone else tracking doesn't work so I guess they just created a label. I'm hoping since it says "shipped" that I will in fact receive my Note 8 by Wednesday since it says "ORDER IS DELIVERED 2 BUSINESS DAYS FROM SHIPPED DATE". Funny, it says shipped but no date posted. Figures! Keeping fingers, toes and eyes crossed! LOL!

I love following these Order threads..it has always had such a festive atmosphere...like waiting in those long lines to buy a new iPhone. Say what you will but I always had a fun time with all of the other people in line.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Sand00ns:
Samsung is making exceptions with trade-in for former Note 7 owners. They are accepting any smartphone that is in good working condition and not damaged. You can call them to confirm, fyi.

---------- Post added at 09:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:40 PM ----------

The unlocked variant is the only one that's backordered until October as per Samsung's website, fyi. That's why I chose the T-Mobile variant and will unlock after the 40 period on their network.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] xile6:
On all the people fighting over who is lying (samsung or the reps).

Ill clear it up the reps dont know much but what is on there screen.

I order the 28th. And messaged them a few days ago and was told the phones would start shipping the 5-6th.

Then i call today because my order status still says perorder.

The guy said that my order is good and the phones are in stock that, that they are waiting on word from the warehouse.

Which means alot of people are probably getting labels but nothing has move and wont for a few days.

Sonits back house and front house mis commuition
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Sand00ns:
Optimistically excited and hoping to have my GN8 in hand by this weekend!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] MorePAIN:
Samsung customer service is the worst ever. No I don't believe anything they say. Guaranteed you call 5 times you'll get 3 different stories. They suck. I was promised a callback by a supervisor that I was transferred too and it's been 5 days now? Not to mention the other 2 reps I had escalate the situation and promised a callback within 24-48hrs still nothing. So yay you got someone who claims to be a supervisor to tell you wanna you wanna hear. Trust me I won't believe them until my phone is on my hands that is if I even want it still. Blah Samsung has left yet another bad taste in my mouth.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] bluetoothless:
Has anyone had their tracking information populate yet? Maybe UPS computers didn't take full day off.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] alfadog77:
lol Samsung is so weird. they keep charging and uncharging my bank account. The money for the phone is back in my back account even tho I got a shipping confirmation email with a tracking number. don't even see a pending charge from Samsung either so who knows what they're doing.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] KOLIOSIS:
My monthly T-Mobile bill is like that for as long as I can remember (4+ years w/T-Mobile) & it's the only one that does it.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Krayziepop:
So why not, I'll throw mine out there. I'm pretty excited but I'm not holding my breath on the premise it'll be here this week...

Order #: Samsung - Order Confirmation #M6****144.

Device: Unlocked SGN8

Order date/time: August 26th @ 6:29 PM

Payment Method: Amex

Promotions: N7 promo with 360 camera (will be sending off a LG G4 for the 425 credit)

Current Status: Preorder

So mine hasn't moved since I placed the order, and it appears that the CC pre-auth has fallen off as well. My initial email says 9/11 is the ship date. I'll be a little bummed if the carrier customers get theirs first, simply for the fact that N7 users were technically first in line, but I have never trusted these kinds of "promises" over the years, and I have been first in line for many devices dating back to my HTC Apache back in the day (what fun that was with ROM kitchens and tons of dev going on!) I am a little older now (mid-thirties) and I've calmed down a bit since those days, but I LOVE technology and I felt absolutely ROBBED when my poor Note 7 was pried from my mitts lol.

I'm following this thread like a little kid lol, but really it's nice having something to get excited about now and again! Fingers crossed mine flips to shipped tonight!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] bluetoothless:
Mine is listed as shipped. Didn't pay for expedited shipping for my AT&T Black. I am in SE Florida. Hope it gets here before Irma!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] BigMosley:
Does anyone use the Shop Samsung app? Wondering what your order looks like either when it's confirmed or shipping via the Samsung app?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Sand00ns:
I can understand your frustration but the official release date is after 9/11. Technically, we should not get upset if we don't receive before then.

Here you go!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] pcriz:
This is exactly the state of the note 7 thread last year. People going as far as threatening returns because they can't get their devices earlier than everyone else. Nevermind they didn't pay more they just paid sooner and get free gifts.

The entitlement is real, never mind when the note 7 got recalled no one got special treatment.

People just need to feel special when all they did was offer the same amount of money sooner than someone else.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] BigMosley:
Cool, I'll just use the Shop Samsung app from now on to check the status since it auto logs me in, and not the browser that makes you log in everytime.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] sloanster:
Cuz... two business day after ups receives it.

They won't pick it up from the warehouse until tomorrow!

They have a logical progression, it's not magic..

Take medication, you will get it later in the week...

I took my medication just a few minutes ago,lol

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Blues fan:
I hope to get it by Friday. I live in Southwest FL and Irma looks like it could be up to cat 5 heading this way as the models keep shifting west. I might not have a house if it comes up the west coast. I think a southeast FL strike but I'd still get cat 1 or cat2 winds and won't get the Note 8 on time. My status says shipped but the tracking number doesn't work yet. They're supposed to ship tomorrow tech support told me. I paid for overnight shipping so I hope I get it by Thur. I doubt sat delivery if mandatory evacs.

Yeah man i setup the account and even called them. They told me no issues on their end and order issues were thru SAMSUNG their part was done and I was approved. Oh well. Again I don't care when I get it I just want to get a damn confirmation that I will receive it since I opened up a line of credit specifically for these phones. Pretty ridiculous if ya ask me but oh well. I'm not gonna keep banging my head on a wall.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] droidrev71:
What date did you order? Unlocked or carrier phone? If you have a pending order with TD and show an order with Sammy you'll get it.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] MorePAIN:
First order was for TMobile phone them when I got no confirmation told to cancel it cause it was ordered on an unsecured website? I'm like ok at any rate that was on the 24th. I waited a few days to see if anything would happen called back told that it was placed at risk and needed to cancel it. Placed 2nd order on the 28th for unlocked version. Still not even an email confirmation yet.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] droidrev71:
Ok, I remember reading your situation.. Seems like unlocked version is moving slower than the carrier orders. You'll get it if it is showing up under your order history.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] MorePAIN:
I hope so. I just want confirmation is all at this point. Soon I hope. I need to buy accessories just not wanting to do that till I know I'll be getting the phone
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Limeybastard:

---------- Post added at 11:12 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:05 PM ----------

I ordered two phones this way , one for the wife with her sammy account and one for me with my sammy account. Wife never even got a confirmation email saying her order was placed. That was after cancelling and doing to twice over a period of two days.

Whats there to setup with TD bank? Last i checked it requires account number but its all masked except for the last 4 or so numbers. So cannot set it up? Didn't think it needing setting up.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] MorePAIN:
It's not required until you need to pay the account really. Just thought it would be good to setup to scouts delays. Boy was I wrong
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Limeybastard:
Didn't think so, cheers. Still wife didnt get a confirmation email like you. Checked spam trash folders etc. But the order is there as pre-order status same as mine . I better not get mine before hers else im in trouble.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Limeybastard:
Why an earth would anyone sell their email code , why wouldnt they use it themselves. Sounds dubious to me. Meaning why would I sell my code to someone for a five dollar Amazon gift card when I could technically use it myself and then sell the the phone for more? Does not make sense, nor does slickdeal forums.

I'm in Southwest FL and forecast models don't look good. Unless it somehow hits Haiti or stays over Cuba for a long time, someone in FL is going to get hit by a large cat 4 or cat 5 storm. Some models take it into the eastern gulf near me now. Surge from a large 4 or 5 would demolish my house.

I'm just inside zone 2 evacuation. Would such if we leave Fri and UPS delivers and drops it off while I'm away and the storm blows my Note 8 away! I just want my Note!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Limeybastard:
Indeed, Im going to cancel my order closer to knowing where IRMA will hit, whats the point if I aint around nor my home?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Blues fan:
Yea, plus latest models suggesting getting into far eastern gulf near SWFL all the way up to tampa. That would be a nightmare disaster, a large cat 4 or 5 in the shallow water for storm surge. might be worse than a Miami hit.

It's too late to cancel my Samsung order though. Hopefully Thur it is here. I paid extra for overnight. Hopefully it pays off.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Limeybastard:
Yep . Tampa according to weather historians is well past its due date for a major hit. Im 40 miles north of that area, stay safe.

I would just like to see any kind of movement, even the "CONFIRMED" instead of the same old "PREORDER". :rolleyes: :fingers-crossed:
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] drmacrofish:
Well, [MENTION=4149744]sloanster[/MENTION] was right. No movement yet on the shipping. Oh well. I did really think that we would see some movement in the early AM today, but no luck, at least for me. Kinda a buzzkill that these Verizon and Sprint people are getting deliveries today though. That is really what bugs me more than anything, just because Samsung promised us right on their site that we would get the phone first with priority shipping and blah blah blah....If it weren’t for that, I really wouldn’t care when I got the phone as I thought the initial ship date of 9/11 was good.

Here’s hoping to getting this phone sooner than later though for those of us in Florida. Looks like I am gonna have to baton down the hatches here later this week. Hope all you other guys/gals here in Florida stay safe as well. (And hopefully we all get our phones before Irma’s arrival).

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] BigMosley:
When did you order? I did the online chat again (I know, grain of salt info...) and I expressed my frustration that some of the major carriers are getting deliveries today and I was a Note7 owner and I went through Samsung to "be one of the first to get the phone" and he assured me the phone will ship before or on September 11th per my email confirmation. Its just discouraging because my credit card has no charge and I ordered 8 days ago and all I see is PREORDER, just give me some sign of life Sammy!!!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] fgr:

Ordered and cancelled on the 24th, reordered on the 27th. Locked Sprint version.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Guides, News, & Discussion] drmacrofish:
Yeah, those who ordered from the carriers, mainly Verizon and Sprint, will supposedly be getting delivery today or tomorrow. But that is different from those who ordered direct from Samsung. We will be getting our phones "earliest". So like, I got mine yesterday but don’t even know about it. ;)
