I was wondering if anybody got confirmation for their $50 mail in rebate. The reason I'm asking is because I am an early upgrader.
When I read the TOC on the rebate site it said it has to have been a full 2 years since your last upgrade in order to be eligible for the $50.
I was only a little over a year into my contract since my last upgrade. Got the G2 pre-order from the website and it said I was eligible for full upgrade pricing.
I haven't sent in the rebate form yet.
It says you need to cut the UPC off of the box. Is there any reason I would need to keep the UPC? I'm outside of my buyers remorse period. I'm very happy with my G2 and have had no problems.
Any input is appreciated
My status changed from pending to approved a cople days ago. The card will ship on Nov 8th. I wasnt quite 2 years into the contract and had to pay the early upgrade fee.
Also because I purchased the phone from tmobile over the web they told me I didn't need the UPC from the box or a reciept, just the form from the website. That's all I sent and I was approved.
I went to a tmobile store 5 days before I was supposed to upgrade and they said come back in 5 days or else you wont get the 50 dollars rebate. But if i wanted the phone now i could get it now but obiously wouldnt get the 50 rebate. I waited ofc, and sent my rebate in last week.
I got my phone over the phone for $99, and it has been 21 months since my last upgrade, and I also got the rebate forms and papers with the package. Should I send it in? Would I eligible?

I got mine over the web from T-Mobile too. But when I went to the rebate website it said I could submit it online, but I would still have to mail in the UPC by itself.
I'll have to take another look and see if I can get around that.
I got my notification today that my rebate had been processed. I got my g2 on the 6th, and my rebate was sent in exactly 14 days later.
Hmmm that's a good point. I haven't gotten any feedback on that at all.

Anyone that was at the 'global' launch received their £250 worth of vouchers from Samsung yet?
I'm not sure if I was in the top 100 people but I was queueing up at about 07:50 and I put my name and email on a list so I'm just wondering if anyone has received them yet?

If you came at 7:50 then I was probably a few places in front of you in the line, but no I haven't got any emails about it either.

I was the guy looking thoroughly cheesed off about the fact the there was only one shop in the country that was supplying them on launch day. I noticed the media team with the camera steered well clear of me instead asking questions to 'the only girl in the queue'
I remember when I bought Sammy gtab 10.1 on the release day in London something was as well. Sammy offered cover and keyboard to first 100 ppl, it took about a month. I'm guessing that it's due to 27days return policy. they didn't want to give free stuff and people would return gtab and sell the freebies...

Yeah i'm due one too and the cashback offer but not been contacted yet. They did say 7 days to me to be fair.

Yeah, that's what they said to me and seven days would probably mean business days so we're looking to the start of next week
I was just wondering if they were being proactive and sending them out when they said they would rather than leaving it for weeks and weeks
I was close to the front and nothing. I expect it will take around three weeks.
I was 3rd in the Queue but still nothing, i remember one of the Sammy Reps saying it would take "A Few Weeks"
Also I seem to remember that they said the voucher will be redeemed with Samsung's own Android store, not the market. Since I don't think Samsung has put up an ICS version of their store app yet it will probably be a while till we get it.

So do we know what exactly we get? I got some vague description of apps and films and stuff. Was more interested in the cashback offer at the time tbh
I was told by 2 of the Phones4U sales team that we would get £250 vouchers for Android content and £100 extra vouchers from phones4U.
I have contacted Phones4U twice now (as they didn't get back to me the first time) they said it would be coming from Samsung and they would email us a code after 20 days.
The cameras were for Google internal. Nothing special.

I was in the queue early morning behind a guy who already had one! I got in, given and handset and then got denied a contract on Orange!
At least I got the T-Shirt
I came back at about 6 and there were still 2 name slots on the list, managed to get my upgrade with Vodafone so that was one less hassle!
So I got the 250 vouchers and the 100 return (still waiting for these), Phones4U didn't want to write this offer on my contract though...
Also got a mug too!
Not really sure how to spend 250 on apps and videos?!?
I got £200 vouchers from Samsung when I registered my Galaxy Tab and it broke down like this:
15 new release films from Samsung Movies (or more if I chose cheaper ones), movies are £12
5 Gameloft games
50 mp3's from emusic
£25 WHSmith ebook voucher

They told me it was for the Android market. But I might have get them wrong, it was very hectic.
the p4u guy also told the vouchers/credits were coming from Samsung in the next 7 days but didn't give me anyway of proving that i would be getting it. Basically i was supposed to have faith that Samsung was going to miraculously know to contact me.

I didnt get a mug! Just Tshirt and stickers.
Was really hoping it would be for the android market. I was wondering if they could be used to buy comics through the marvel app, or when the music store comes out.

Nokia Lumia 900 for $99.99 for the phone and you get $100.00 in accessories for free.
Maybe no $36 upgrade charge either; (not confirmed)
So if you haven't received your shipping info for a pre-order I would cancel and enjoy the promotion on Monday's launch.
I expect this to be confirmed at 7pm tonight via Nokia Times Square launch party, followed by $100 million TV barrage to batter the USA for the next 4-6weeks.
P.S> accessories must be compatible with the Nokia Lumia 900, Headphones....

This means you need to buy it at an AT&T store right? And is it only good on launch day or for a limited time from launch day on?
Hoping the Microsoft store matches the promotion, if not ATT HERE I COME!
Not sure how long the accessory promotion is, the source is a rep. I can only speculate on the length of the promotion, but I would think it would last more then a day. The source didn't specify if the $100 had to be used the same day or if it was a gift card or in store credit. The only thing that was specifically mentioned was the accessories had to be Nokia Lumia 900 compatible.
If you go to at$t web site and look at the Lumia 900 "compatible accessories" I count 29 items. However at least 1 item, the alarm dock would appear to not be compatible; its the " iHome iP18 Color Changing Alarm Clock Speaker "
The source also mentioned that $100 mill was being spent in the first 4-6 weeks on promotion, and another $100 mill after, but not sure how long it was to last.
On Monday, when I pick up my phone at a corporate At$t store for $106.74 after tax, I was promised $100 in free accessories and no upgrade fee. This is what I know.
I can only imagine the offers getting better now till Monday not a retraction.
If this is the case though, does that mean those who pre-ordered don't get the $100 in accessories? That would piss me off if I didn't get this deal if I was one of the first who ordered.

I hope you who pre-ordered it do get it. Id rather be pissed I didn't get my phone early, apposed to not getting it early for $99 for $236+ tax in goods, just to wait two days.
My experience with customer service is as long as you don't stop complaining and continually state your case in a calm professional manor and keep working your way up the food chain you will get what you want, with in reason.
According to a post on WPCentral, those who pre-ordered using an upgrade or new contract are eligible (at least for the North Central region).

Very interesting. Are there even $100 in accessories available yet that are compatible with the Nokia Lumia 900? Seems like you'd be buying a bunch of cases when you only really need 1.
Nice!!! glad to see. Those details match the description my source gave me. Nice find uptempo777.
Beats Audio headphones are $99 and are Nokia Lumia 900 compatible.
Also, portable back up batteries are available for ~$35 and ~$40. That may be a good pick up since the battery is not removable. I think two battery back ups and a Gel case for $100 sounds good.

They are listed under compatible accessories on the Nokia Lumia 900 page at Att.com

While texting my rep back and forth earlier because of some data issues, he explained to me that preorderers get the $100 towards accessories
I called 2 AT&T Stores and asked if they would have any special promotion to buy the Nokia Lumia 900 on launch date and they said they didn't know of any. They said they'll have a Nokia rep on-site that may possibly offer anything but they didn't know of anything for sure.
Any idea if they are playing dumb, are dumb, or just really don't know?
Has anyone confirmed that this is for the entire US, or only the North Central Region as originally noted? BTW, for pre-order customers (like me) you can go into a store and tell them to use "Manager Override Reason Code - LP10". That will get you the $100 credit.
Here is a copy of the store memo from WPCentral.com forums.
It looks to me that you have to sign a contract to get the promotion.
Effective April 6, 2012, customers in the North Central Region who purchase a Nokia Lumia 900 can receive a discount up to $100 to be used toward Nokia Lumia 900 compatible accessories
Minimum $50 accessory purchase required.
Offer requires a new or upgrade Nokia Lumia 900 on a two-year commitment.
Accessories must be purchased in the same transaction as the Nokia Lumia 900 purchase.
If a customer purchased a pre-order Nokia Lumia (between March 30, 2012, and April 8, 2012), the customer is eligible for up to $100 in accessory credit. The credit should be done with a manager override, discount reason code LP10.
The discount is taken off of the device (great for APO.)
The discount requires at least one compatible Nokia Lumia 900 accessory SKU and the Nokia Lumia 900 SKU (65367, 65375, 65511) to be included in the cart.
Five unique barcodes are used to issue the discount:
$60 discount barcode applies to accessories totaling $49.95 - $60.00
$70 discount barcode applies to accessories totaling $60.01 - $70.00
$80 discount barcode applies to accessories totaling $70.01 - $80.00
$90 discount barcode applies to accessories totaling $80.01 - $90.00
$100 discount barcode applies to accessories totaling $90.01 and above
The customer receives up to $100 in credit toward their accessory purchase (no cash back value if the purchase totals less than $100.)
Apple branded accessories, gift cards and iTunes cards are excluded.
The $100 accessory offer applies to Nokia Lumia 900 compatible accessories only.
This offer applies to COR only.
Merchandising
An exclusive price card backer and in-store flyer is being used to promote the $100 Accessory Credit. COR locations are scheduled to receive these price card backers to display the week of April 8, 2012.
FAQs
How long will this offer be available?
This offer will be available for a limited time only.
If my customer purchases $85 in accessories, which barcode should I use?
In the scenario, the customer is eligible for a $90 discount. Use the barcode that will discount the device $90.
If my customer purchases $45 in accessories, which barcode should I use?
There is a minimum purchase of at least $50 ($49.95) in accessories to be eligible for this offer.
If my customer purchases half of his accessories from in-stock quantities and the other half through DF, will the barcode still discount the cart?
Yes. The barcode will recognize the accessories in the cart whether they are in your store or available through DF.
Is my customer eligible for a $15 refund if he purchases $85 in accessories?
No. In order to take advantage of the full $100 credit, the customer must have at least $90.01 in accessories in his cart.
Is there merchandising to support this offer?
Yes. A Price Card backer and in-store flyer will be available to support this in-store offer.
How should we position this offer in store?
Purchase a Nokia Lumia Windows Phone and get up to $100 in free accessories.
Are pre-sales eligible to take advantage of this offer?
Pre-sales are eligible but a manager override needs to be used since the phone was purchased in a different transaction. Use reason code LP10.

I used the promo yesterday. Got a screen protector and jawbone headset which is for sale. I already ordered the gel case when I preordered and that came in yesterday. Glad I did because they didn't have much of a variety of lumia 900 specific accessories.

I tried to order in the store on Monday and they told me they were out of pre-orders. I talked to the manager and they are going to give me the $200 gift card when I receive my phone even though I had to have it shipped to my house. I picked up a net 10 smartphone for $20 that day to use as my trade in.

I pre-ordered online. I noticed the pre-authorization that Sprint put on my debit card got credited back, so once they put in the actual charge for the device and ship it, I'll make sure to post here.
That's interesting because my charge wasn't a preauthorization. It was a real charge that posted to my american express a day after I made the purchase. I just checked it again and it is still there.

Interesting. I had to pay a down payment with mine (that's what sucks when you have no credit and pay cash for everything in your life). So I paid $250 + estimated sales tax of $53.38, so a total of $303.38. They pre-authed that amount to my debit card. A day later, Sprint changed the order total, as the system charged me too much sales tax. The actual tax owed is $48.60, so the actual total was $298.60, so they credited me the $303.38 and will instead charge the proper $298.60 once the device ships.
sprint pre-order
I pre-ordeed through Sprint on the telephone on Oct 6........still waiting for tracking #
$320.99 has been charged to my debit card
I as well paid the 299 (349 without the credit coming) plus tax upfront the day I pre ordered it. My order went in 4 minutes after the pre orders started and within about 2 minutes it showed up through my bank and cleared just a day later. I expected sprint to charge me for the upgrade fee but they did not yet. Maybe they are waiting for me to actually do the swap.
The T-mobile thread definitely has me wondering if Sprint is sitting on a bunch of Note 4's and just waiting to get them shipped just in time for the 17th. If Sprint ships UPS it will show up in MyUPS and I will get an email. Hoping to see some activity on Monday.
I pre-ordered through best buy and they charged my card the full amount ($903 which includes expedited shipping) but then it wasn't showing on there a couple of days later. I called to make sure my order wasn't cancelled and the best buy rep told me the card would be charged when the phone ships.
I'm supposed to be getting a price match of $720 then a $200 best buy gift card for trading a working smartphone. I hope this works out like the store manager says.
I was in my local Sprint Store today for repair of my wife's G3 and I mentioned that T-mobile users were already getting their Note 4. The first guy said "Impossible, Samsung will not allow it" but the guy in the back room working on someones phone said "Yeh my brother got his a few hours ago" he continued with the possibility that Sprint will start shipping on Monday or Tue for pre-orders in order to guarantee that it will be delivered by the end of the day on release date. So some may get it as early as Wed or as late as Friday. Nothing is for certain as Sprint may wait till Thursday and ship it next day air saver (assuming they use UPS) in which case it could be as late at 8 P.M Friday.
In my opinion I cant see Sprint waiting to the last second. Yes pre-ordering has its advantage of making sure you get your phone in que but I cant see them making it available in stores on Friday morning while the rest of us who pre ordered are just waiting on delivery. I am willing to bet the Wed or Thur delivery is a bit more reasonable. My neighbor did not pre-order but is planning on just walking into sprint when they open on Friday to buy one. Would be a crappy feeling to see him with his Note 4 before me when I ordered it 3 weeks ago.
dat $200 tradein tho
I pre-ordered through Best Buy and called their "mobile hotline" today to check on arrival date and they said it's currently in transit with delivery on the 16th. I'm hoping Best Buy doesn't hold it for a day to be released, but there's potential for people who purchased through BB that'll their device will be a day early.
The sales rep told me (if he knew what he was talking about) when I pre-ordered on sept 26th, first day of allowed pre-order that I would probably be on the second shipment due to the number of orders already placed that day so possibly there is a Oct 15th arrival for the initial group.
When I spoke to Sprint today I got quite the run around. When I check my order, which was placed on the third, It's still sitting in the same state it was at when I originally received the order number. Called this afternoon to ask and was told that Sprint has yet to receive any phones, which I'm sure isn't true, and that all the blame is on Samsung. I asked how T-Mobile customers received their phones and was pretty much ushered off the phone. I was told that the release date was "around" October 17th and was then hung up on.
I don't even care, I assume they'll do right by us, I just hate receiving the BS canned responses.
There is a discussion going on over at the official Sprint forums. Someone who claims to work at UPS says that on Monday he saw the the labels which indicate a Tue Wed ship out. Now I don't work for UPS but I thought that the company who is shipping would do the printing, taping, and sending to UPS. I cant see sprint showing up with 10,000 phones and all the UPS employees having to tape the labels on the boxes before ship. I can see the info being sent electronically though and maybe this person has access to it.
I keep reading that AT&T is shipping Monday night into Tuesday. No word from Verizon or Sprint.

If that person works for UPS Supply Chain he may be telling the truth. They warehouse and ship for hundreds of companies.
I'm looking for anyone who can help me out with any photo's or proof of their $100 playstore credits from Bell. I preordered the Pixel XL on October 6th, received the phone October 24th, and should have received my credit by October 25th, it's now the 30th and I have received nothing, I've been on the phone with Bell countless times, I've been in store twice, and been in contact with google twice with no avail.
Bell keeps trying to tell me this promotion doesn't exist and they don't show anything about it and that I need to take it up with Google. Google tells me I bought the phone with Bell so the preorder offer is to only be fulfilled with Bell.
It's an endless loop that I've been suffering through for the last 7 hours and I'm looking for any proof of this offer so I can send it to them or possibly lawyers because they seems to be trying to hide their ass and playing it off like nothing like this existed. The only information I can now find on this offer is on MobileSyrup with a list of the offers that were listed for preorders.
Since the phone was released, all carriers have now charged their preorder pages so not show the preorder offers (obviously, because the preorders can no longer be preordered)
Rogers was offering a free chromecast and a $50 playstore credit, Bell and Telus were both offering $100 playstore credits, and Google directly was offering a free Daydreamer VR voucher for when it's released.
So please, any help on this, confirmations from Bell texts showing you received a code, pictures of the preorder offer proving there was a $100 playstore credit offered, emails or sms showing proof of this offer, screen shots of their webpage, anything because they're trying to screw me out of this and if I had known this was going to be such a pain in the ass to get my $100 credit I would have just bought it from Google and got a VR voucher instead.

The free VR was only available in the US.
Okay well Google told me the only offer they had was for a free VR with preorder, that was when I talked to them earlier today so maybe the person I was speaking with from Google didn't know what was a US offer only, regardless, this is mainly to figure out the Bell preorder offer and according to the local Bell location here, there was 15 preorders at that store and I'm the only person who has come back to say they didn't receive the playstore credit, the local Bell employees are also aware of this offer and have told me that I should have received a text within 24 hours of activating the phone before the 24th and within 48 hours after activating the phone after the 24th, which I activated on the 24th at 8:11pm EST, I still haven't received anything and Bell actually just called me back right now saying they were so and so supervisor who is over looking this issue and she's flat out telling me this doesn't exist and they have never offered this deal. They are flat out lying, I saw it on their website for preorders, and on mobile syrup.com they also quote the identical offers I saw and that's the only source I can find to confirm this was a real offer.
The lady that also called me just now was extremely rude trying to tell me I had to fill out some magical three forums to get the voucher that she previously told me doesn't exist and that I didn't fill them out right which is why I didn't get the preorder, yet I have a receipt and preorder number confirming I do in fact have a preorder about this and have emails to thank me for preordering a Pixel XL with Bell.
Any information from any websites, the more information I have, the more I can prove this offer was real because Bell is flat out lying by telling me this offer does not exist, and within the same call they then told me I didn't fill out the forum for this offer correctly, the offer they just told me doesn't exist.. so something fishy is going on, I've also recorded all calls I've made today as proof because they're trying to pull some sneaky crap right now and I don't trust them at all anymore.
This is the link that quotes the exact sales Bell advertised on their website however white/silver one was only for the pixel in 32gb and 128gb was only offered for the pixel xl and the pixel xl was only offered in black.
At the time of pre-order the 128gb model said sold out so I was never given an option for the xl, only black 32gb at the local bell store.

However, as the phone is now released, Bell changed their website because the "pre-order offer" is no longer in effect since it's been released so that link now brings you to the normal order page for the pixel, which is why Bell is now telling me that offer never existed and I'm apparently making it up and there's a magical form that she hung up on me when I asked her what forum it is so I can ask the local store what forum this is for the preorder to make sure it was filled out and that's how I got my pre-order receipt.
I had the exact same issue. Also got it from Bell with a preorder. I made sure to ask the rep when I ordered about the promotion and she told me I would receive a text message with the code on Oct 25. Long story short...received no such message. Called Bell...they pushed me off to Google. Google pushed me back to Bell. I called Bell again and they acted like I was making it up. I referenced their site had said it but how now changed...I told them about a Mobil Syrup Tech site that still mentioned it and even brought up Rogers having a promotion to...but instead of $100 Google Play Credit...with Rogers it was $50 and a free Chromecast. They eventually agreed to give me a $100 plus tax bill credit instead. I accepted this and then got a $115 credit on my bill. Good luck. Bell is trying to screw us and the fact that they gave me the bill credit made me believe they knew they had done wrong. Wonder how many others they've screwed this way.
Bell phone me again just now and it was someone higher up telling me they're sorry for the issues of me having to call them 6 times today so they did the identical thing, $107.98 bill credit on my next bill so we'll see if it was actually applied on November 7th.
This is pretty shady of them, next promotion I'm taking pictures of all evidence that it actually existed before ever applying for it. Live and let learn that no company can apparently be trusted.
Glad I'm not the only one though. Hopefully they make amends on this and start actually giving out the credit they promised customers.

Here I went with Play store directly instead of Bell and I got nothing at all.
Google was offering 2 month of Google music with the pixel but I didn't get it because I had a Google music trial in the last year...
I wish I would've been with Bell.
