Speed bump my *** Samsung hit a freaking mountain with the Note 9. A few of my friends that are on Tmobile got shipping confirmation, as I pre ordered on the 17th through bestbuy and mine still shows processing. Hey maybe I'm getting the new Special edition Note and that's why its taking so long[emoji23][emoji1787]

T-Mobile app or the UPS app under your account.

What does Preorder status mean? Wife's note 9 was in In Process status before. They said that they wouldn't process her order until they received and processed my note 8 trade in.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] oneandroidnut:
oh i ordered through samsung directly not tmobile
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] BigMosley:
You must not be a big reader, the previous page I said I ordered from T-Mobile...
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] oneandroidnut:
Nope didn't read a page back nothing was quoted so no point there reading nazi.....
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] AllTheWay:
Just an FYI if anybody is interested. AT&T has the 512gb in purple in stock for order. Don't have any at the stores but they have inventory online.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] ErebusRaze:
It'll update from pre-order to backorder if the phone isn't in stock like pretty much all of ours. I posted sometime back. If you have two orders, and both with trade ins, make sure you send the first order to a different shipping address (a job, parents/friend home), and then send the second to your home. That way the second order won't be placed on hold until the first one if fulfilled. If it's too late, it'll take about a week in terms of turnaround for them to process your trade in and release the hold.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Limeybastard:
Well it's too late for that address change. I ordered mine on 8/18 and she ordered hers on 8/19. Hers got delayed due to my trade in..

They recieved my trade in on 8/28 and there has been no no updates. They keep saying they'll email me when it's completed. I never got an email when I traded in my S7 for the note 8 last year. Their support system is just one scripted charade.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] RaymondPJR:
Learned my lesson last year. So glad I didn't order from Samsung. TMO got my phone to me in about a week.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] steely123:
From someone who just went through this, you just have to chill out and wait. You will receive emails just like the first order, the website doesn't update as it should. Don't change the order any, just means something on it is on backorder (going from "in process" back to "preorder"). Samsung CS is clueless. And the trade in offer is considerably less now, so don't change anything or you'll F it up and can't get it back.

My 2nd one finally shipped about a week after I shipped back my Note 8 trade in. It's much more pathetic than the Note 8 release of last year, just for B71 and B66 (my priorities). But you're at their mercy now and nothing will speed it up. Just gotta hang tight. That's just my experience, and we called Samsung every single day with no avail.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Limeybastard:
Yeah, I sure am at their mercy. This Tuesday it will be two weeks since they received my trade in. Oh, well.

I pre-ordered AT&T version straight from Samsung website on August 10. So if the phone won't ship out by next week, I will cancel my Note 9 order and wait for the new Galaxy Fold or Galaxy S10.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] dragunbayne:
Seems to depend on the color and where you buy it. AT&T shows I can have a purple 512GB this week. They don't offer the awesome freebies like Samsung, so I figured it's probably the same ship date from them. NOPE! It didn't show me an expected ship date until the order was placed and it is for the 30th as you mentioned. So I am hoping that somehow ordering the less popular color will still get me the phone quicker somehow. As much as I want my phone, I would rather wait and get the free stuff than get the phone this week and no free stuff. So I will impatiently wait.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] AllTheWay:
You ordered yours from Samsung?

Eidt: Nevermind. Saw from previous post it was from Best Buy.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] BigMosley:

Actually, I ended up canceling because they were having issues and bought it from AT&T I will have it this week. :victory:
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Limeybastard:
They're hopeless. Sent email still no response . Just proves to me that the support system they have in place is nothing but a rebuttle system.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] marctronixx:
Aye , lemme ask this question.

I’m waiting to pounce on a 512 tmobile version (i do have the 128 already—got another line to fill :) ) but i see on Samsung’s site when they ask you what phone the list different carriers. So if i choose the tmobile 512 version, is this the exact same one I would get through tmobile ?

Yes pardon my ignorance.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] AllTheWay:
Ahh nice. Which color did you end up getting. I have to wait it out with Samsung since I get a discount through them.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] eurominican:
How can Samsung be screwing over this much those of us that ordered the 512GB from samsung.com??? amazon STILL has it in stock so they've shipped a crap ton of phones to them while we are stuck waiting with no ETA.. My phone still says "IN PROCESS"

This is sooo frustrating.. I already have like 4 cases, slickwrap skin and Whitestone dome screen protector ready to go and no phone. Unbelievable. Never buying a phone from samsung direct again.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] GiantJay:
Day 31 since pre order here, Att blue 512gb ordered from samsung.com. Only email they sent was a week after they said it would ship saying my phone should ship by September 29th now. I pre-ordered on August 13th
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] BigMosley:
Yes
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] dragunbayne:
I went with purple as it was in stock. Blue has the super long backorder for the 512GB. It's showing up today, whenever the FedEx truck shows up here at work.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] butchieboy:
Yeah guys this is getting nuts. And the sad thing is you cant find anything anywhere as to why the shortage. Everytime I search online all info is from August 24th or so. Its pointless calling Bestbuy. I understand they are at the mercy of Samsung but man tell us something.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] @rbiter:
I think the 512GB version, especially blue, was underestimated by Samsung. And Amazon probably got a huge chunk of the first shipments.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Limeybastard:
I'm speculating here now, wonder if there has been some sort of manufacturing defect or fault found that has paused production?

I emailed them about a since resolved issue on the 28th. Their CS responded to me yesterday... Don't hold your breath my guy. Their customer service is the worst I have EVER encountered from any major company.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Limeybastard:
It's ridiculous. They don't even respond or follow up to my emails. Her note 9 is still sitting in limbo until my trade in which they've had for two weeks is finalized and or processed.

What is one to do? Do they have a social media account where perhaps they can be more receptive ?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] AllTheWay:
Tell me about it. Was just told be Samsung they have no idea when my phone will actually ship.

IPhone here I come.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] ErebusRaze:
I've reached out to them via FB, Twitter, their email and chat. All for documented evidence. And... nothing... I was told by one of their outsourced to India reps that my phone will ship the week of 9/08. It's Friday of said week. I've received nothing. Next week is the original ship window. If it doesn't ship then? I'm either going with the Xs Max (even though I have loathed Apple for decades), or the Pixel 3.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] l.hieunghia1999:
I'm thinking to cancel to if Samsung didn't ship out this week. If cancelled, I will wait for the new Foldable phone from Samsung or the S10 next year

I don't hate Samsung for the delayed. However, I hate them when there's no solid explanation why it's delayed and their customers service don't know anything about it. I preordered mine August 10, and it has been more than a month. It's still waiting there with nothing ?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] l.hieunghia1999:
Cancelled mine. I'm out of here
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] butchieboy:
I know its been a long time for all of us, but if we have waited this long we may as well keep waiting. I would hate to see my fellow Note users miss out on what could be the end of the "Note" name. I still have all of Notes beginning with Note 1. We are a different breed..lol im just as frustrated and not getting any answers from Bestbuy, but im going to just hang in there. Look at it this way...our devices will be "Newer"[emoji12][emoji13]

Yeah, same experience. Finally got my 2nd one, so done with these orders. But over a month later, and much more empty customer service answers.

I said I wouldn't get N9 since we had N8s, but the battery and B71 were big selling points. Don't think I'll care to go through that without a MAJOR change next year.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] aergern:
I still haven't received my blue 512 from T-Mobile. I ordered on 08/11 ... found out the card I put the pre-order on had some fraud unrelated to TMO so I got the new card a few days later and tried to change it in their system. They told me it would have to be charged then rejected and I would get an email to change the card. I did get the email on 09/05. Their rep said he could change it but would have to clone the order and cancel the original. He did. The ship date changed to between 09/19 - 09/26. So 6 weeks in .... no device. If I do not get the device shipped by their new date .. I may just cancel it. It will already be to late to claim the add-ons Samsung offered for doing the pre-order. I will say that this is the last time I do this. It's not worth the irritation. It really isn't.

After I was lied to by a Samsung rep saying my phone will ship the week of 9/08, I'm finally in my projected ship date week -- 9/16. I'll keep everyone updated, but if I don't receive it this week, I'm 100% canceling. The 21st will be a month that I have waited for this damn phone, and the 21st will be when I buy the Xs Max out of spite.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] ErebusRaze:
Contacted Samsung CS this morning. They said my phone will now ship 9/23. F*ck them. I went off and asked for credits for the bullsh*t. Freaking outsourced rep said I have to wait until the phone is received before I can ask for a credit. I'm about to see how low I can get the max down before I buy it.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Limeybastard:
This is one area where Samsung is eons behind Apple - Customer care.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] droidrev71:
Samsung's customer service sucks. It took me three months to get my refund for two S9 + phones. I asked for credits too because the phones they sent me were defective. They gave me a lousy little store credit. For me, I wouldn't even consider an iPhone. Especially, at the price they are asking for the Max. Android is the only way for me. I hope they start shipping out the darn phone soon because they are going to lose sales. I'm so happy I upgraded from Note 8.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] Limeybastard:
Wife's note 9 still says order placed via the shop Samsung app, or via Chrome log in the status shows as Preorder. This Thursday it will be three weeks since Samsung received my note 8 in trade in, yet not processed it hence why wife's note 9 is on hold. Mofos.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] ErebusRaze:
I messaged them this morning. The rep said my phone has been pushed back to a week of 9/23 ship date. I... Went... Off... I asked for a credit for this debacle since this date means I'll be waiting for over a damn month for this phone. He claimed I have to receive it first before I can ask for a credit. So I went off again. But he held his ground. Good thing Samsung CS outsources to India because Americans would have buckled, lol. Either way, another damn week. I already went to Disney last week, and am going to a friend's wedding at the end of this week. Would have been an excellent opportunity to shoot with the camera, but I guess it's not meant to be. If the Xs wasn't so damn expensive I'd definitely get it. Lets see what the V40 and Pixel 3 cook up. One thing I'm never doing again is ordering directly from Samsung.com. I'll buy in store.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] crazy88:
Going by my own previous experience with the s7 edge, and now the note 9 I'm agreeing with you there. I pre ordered in the UK and it was just about smooth, but I got lucky this time. I know a lot of folk have come off far worse. The days of day 1 sell outs seems to have gone. I remember when people queued for ages before an iPhone release. Now people just walk in and grab them.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Guides, News, & Discussion] PsiPhiDan:
I dare say T-Mobile has stock... I've been looking at a 9/19-9/21 ship date for weeks now. Today it changed to 9/17-9/19 and it's "processing" as a status. I think it's coming soon!

Thanks man! I'm sorry you're still waiting. It seems like direct from Samsung and Best Buy are the worst two options. Who knew the manufacturer would be so awful?

V40 might be fine, but the V20 was so disappointing that I can't recommend that. The pixels are so damn smooth, but not otherwise exciting I found (low "wow factor"). That's what made me come back to Samsung. Hopefully you'll be getting yours sooner than expected!

Hello all

I ordered my Ocean Blue 512GB note 9 on september 13, 2018 and had this for delivery date Delivery by dates: October 2, 2018 - October 5, 2018

I checked today and see this!

Order status: Preparing to ship

We're working on your order, and we'll let you know once it's ready.

Hopefully it wont stay in limbo there and will actually ship this week.

It seems like people that ordered direct from samsung gets put on the back burner and fulling carriers first

No reason why I should be getting the phone before people that ordered a month before I did.

I'll post an update if and when it ships

(edit)it shipped! Coming tomorrow they overnight it! Shipped well before estimated date! 6 days after ordering I'm receiving! W00t.

I was planning on selling the S9+ to subsidize this phone, but at this point I might just sell the S9 AND the note, and go in a different direction altogether, maybe the OnePlus 6T. It's bad enough I'm about to drop 2K on 2 iPhone XSs for the wife & I.
