I've got an S-Line TPU case too, but there's also a local'ish company that sells them for $8 + tax, if you order soon enough.

I actually intend to keep the Ringke and the Nillken, since I like having a flap, but like a slim phone. :p

Second round american sales late nov.

I ordered 2x 8gb and 1x 16gb and they ended up sending me 3x 16gb

Don't need a US credit card. Call up your credit card company and have them add your US address as a secondary billing address.

I'll repead darthchilli: GOOGLE IS FUCKING LAME!
Fucking google....
You guys remember I was the first one to post on here to have received shipping confirmation with the tracking number. Well, yeah it's been 5 weeks and the fucking tracking number NEVER worked to this date.......keeps showing "Billing information received for this label blablabla........".
I fucking called google support every fucking days in the first 3 weeks. Talked to countless (useless, I may add) CSR and same BS every time "We'll escalate your case to the shipping specialist". I even spoke to handful of "Floor supervisors" and they can't do shit either. All they could do is promise me that they will PERSONALLY forwarding my case to the shipping specialist and follow up on my case. Yeah, no they never followed up. Worst thing is they charged my credit card in full for the entire order on the day I received my tracking number. WTF is this shit. Which reputable company would withhold customer's money for 5 weeks without shipping the item. If I didn't know I'm dealing with Google, I would have thought I'm being scammed.

Irony is I made another order on Dec 3rd when they opened up again from pre-order just to make sure I will get one in case my first order is not going to come (well now I'm fucking sure it won't come). I got a working tracking number on Dec 14th and like a lot of you guys I am getting mine phone delivered tomorrow.

Long story short, Google Play Store support line is just fucking useless and don't ever believe what they tell you about your order status. Just fucking useless and unreliable. I refuse to deal with the support line again and I'm now dealing with my credit card company to do a chargeback on my first order so that I can get my money back and stick it up their ass with the chargeback fees they have to eat.:2finger:

Oh yeah, and to add I got so fucking annoyed that I said fuck you Google and bought a Galaxy Note 2. Now, I shall see which one I'm gonna keep.

My FIRST order from ROUND 1 is in the same BULLSHIT. And I can't do jack shit until I at least receive one order. I am removing my card once I get a phone from the playstore
im just livid right now.

All these charges back and forth and it has me up in flames

Windmobile is offering $50 service credit when you activate a new line.

a sim costs $30, so really $20 for you.

Yeah, I was so frustrate in the first 3 weeks and the worse fucking thing is there is no way to file a complaint. So I did give BBB a try and filed one online but so far it's not helping much with the slow response time because of the time they allow the Merchants to respond.

My nexus 4 arrived in Redmond, WA today so hopefully it'll arrive tomorrow as planned

fuck so tempted to buy an S3

I FINALLY GOT A STRAIGHT HONEST ANSWER FROM GOOGLE

phone is backordered again...yay


fuckers.

Left Redmond 12:37 pretty sure it'll be here in the morning and I'm gonna pick it up at the UPS shipping centre instead of waiting for them to deliver "by end of day"

What the hell does that even mean? Does that mean that the US customers have rights to phones over us so any phones we should be getting are being sent out to them? Does google only have like 100 phones in stock at a time? What the hell..I dont even feel like giving google my money anymore

What I think happened is that Google had a refresh of their ordering system (since the first round was a fucking SHITSHOW), and all previous orders before the refresh got backlogged and weren't processed. All new orders went thru the refreshed ordering system and were processed properly. Since Canada doesn't have the option to re-order (still out of stock), we get fucked because we can't get a new order in the system. So Google is probably manually processing the orders prior to the refresh, which is why it's so slow.

That's just my take on the whole situation.

Makes sense. But it's making them all look like fucking retards.
I'll think twice before ordering straight from Google again that's for sure..

My phone is in transit!

sounds like a good idea, maybe i will do that too

OH GOD YES. My Dec 3rd order (WHICH I ORDERED AT 12:03 PM AND GOT A 3-5 DAY DELIVERY ESTIMATE -- NOT 1-2 WEEKS) finally shipped today. IT TOOK ME 14 PHONE CALLS TO GOOGLE SUPPORT AND OVER 20 E-MAILS, JESUS CHRIST.

i ordered at 12:08pm on Dec 3 and just got a shipped email. Tracking is working yet though...

My tracking information still shows
Redmond, WA, United States 12/19/2012 4:40 A.M. Arrival Scan.

Hopefully it's just UPS system not showing real time info,

Redmond, WA, United States 12/19/2012 12:37 P.M. Departure Scan

Hopefully it stays true and arrives tmr

What the fuck, I order before you and I haven't even received any new emails.

how do you tell them you want to pick it up there?

Arent those all long distance calls?

You could always use Google Voice if they are in fact long distance. :thumbs:


According to Google:

UPS Customer Centre
UPS CUSTOMER CENTRE
790 BELGRAVE WAY
DELTA,BC,V3M5R9
800-742-5877

I suspect giving them a call would suffice.
