At&t Store Launch Day - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II

When is it officially?

Nov 9

On a Friday, kind of weird date. Usually they launch on Sundays no?

They have changed the store "refresh" days to Thursday nights.

I guess that kinda makes sense. I called my local AT&T corporate store today to ask them if they had the Note 2 yet. They said they do not and don't know when they are getting it as they haven't even received any kind of communication on the matter.

Last year AT&T had sales of $126B and made a net income of $4B off that, and that was a bad year. Profit is usually double-digit billions. As long as they keep raking in the money, they won't get too worried about things like whether store employees know what date the newest phone arrives.

Is anyone calling their Verizon store today...

To see if by any off chance it is being sold?

I am outside a store right now. Not opening early. I will come back at 10:00. Hopes not up that high though. Am I a stalker? Yea, guess so.

That date changed. Rumors. It is in the year 3000. Sadly, we will all only be energy then, the touch screen will not matter as much.

I called my local corporate store, I explained to her that I needed to get it before I go on my vacation (which is tomorrow) and also that I'd be a new customer.
She said she'd call me back in a half hour to let me know if she can sell me the phone. Here's hoping.

On the flip side if we all banned together and threatened to cancel service to buy it on another carrier I bet they would hand em out like hot cakes.

No because I and VZW know that none of us would cancel service.
December 15 is now the "official" new expected launch date. But hey, if you guys get it early, that'd be awesome...
Well, not at the store here. The girl did acknowledge its existence, but didn't know when it would come out. She also didn't know what the xyboard was, so there you go. I explained to her it was a Verizon exclusive tablet that cost too much. Good times at Big Red.

just spoke with mike at my local verizon wireless store in dc. i asked if he had any information on the galaxy nexus and he said that they were supposed to be selling them today, that they had them in the store, but that they are unable to do so because of a system issue with verizon. i asked him about this and he said that the phones are not appearing in the verizon internal system but that they are hoping to have this resolved by this afternoon. i asked him if this meant they would possibly be selling the phones this afternoon and he said that was correct. he took my name and number and said he'd call back if they could sell the phone (apparently, they already have a list of people who have called about the phone). if i get a call and the floodgates open i'll be sure to post.

So far no phone call. I'll be calling them shortly.

why not? anyone else can get service that costs less there not the only option. There service is good but my contract is up I don't have to suckle at verizons teet. In fact if we didn't get the slight corporate discount if be gone already.

i don't know. i just have a feeling we're close here. not sure why (especially given how much we've all been burned in the past with this device). it would also be tres bizarre to release a phone without an official announcement from the carrier. vz must really hate this device (prob because it isn't a droid).
called my closest verizon store, no go

Optimus G shipping today from Att?

I pre-ordered my on the 16th, well last week I noticed on Att website, that order page for the Lg optimus G has in red that it says Orders are scheduled to ship on October 29, 2012. so I`m keeping my fingers cross that this actually happens today.

I know, its very questionable. I suspect our "pre order" inventories went to the local stores....I bet you that they simply didnt have a good handle on logistics b/c this is not an iphone launch, or a device manufacturer that gets major run. I am going to go to the local stores on fri, and i suspect they have it...ill just cancel my online order then...

If you're able to cancel your order sometimes you can get it in store depending on the circumstances. General rule of thumb is preorders aren't fulfilled by store inventory.

Oh =/ I had to order through online because in store wouldn't renew my contract at one year like they said they would. So I wouldn't be able to cancel and go in store and get the phone. I guess I just have to wait till they get more in real bummer.
last time I pre-ordered or ordered on line, my phone didn't show shipped until the day of. In fact, I had one that arrived at my doorstep before my status even changed. Not to say that will apply here, but I'll expect my phone to arrive tomorrow unless told otherwise.
yeah no Shipping email here either, still says preorder- processing, I think I will call today and find out, if they don`t know when it will ship I will just cancel my pre-order and go to the store, or I might say screw it and buy the Nexus 4, I don`t need LTE.
My mom just called about mine and they are back ordered bad. A lot of people preordered in hopes of getting a day or two early, which caused them to be short.

The phone is pretty awesome, but if these early hands on impressions of the Nexus 4 are to be believed, that might be even better. You can't go wrong with a quad core for $299-$349. I am seriously thinking about getting a N4

I thought about that, and I would just save my upgrade the next best thing that comes out, I guess I will see what Att has to say when they should get more in to ship out.
If you have data to spare N4 is pretty solid.

AT&T retention offers

I have a retention offer on my account to get an early upgrade $249 price on a Note II. Anybody know if a corporate store will honor this offer?
Yes corporate stores will honor online prices

A retentions rep on the phone offered it to me. I called a couple days ago and the regular CS rep said they wouldn't.

Why are you asking us then if you were already given your answer by them? lol...I thought maybe it was an online thing, but if it was over the phone then yes you'll have to do it over the phone. That's why I got my upgrade 2 months early, but I had to do it over the phone.

Well,I thought maybe the rep was just being pissy with me because I refused her 15 minute long attempt to sell me on UVerse.
Everything is negotiable. It depends who you talk to sometimes. Always ask to speak to a supervisor and be nice; never rude or demanding.

Actually your wrong, I got 2 lines upgraded early, went to my store in town and got both new phones, they were hesitant because it was 5 months early, but they gave them to me, the I upgraded my sisters account one of her lines like 2 months early(how I got my note 2) im well known at my store, I honestly think it depends on the store, and no its not a corporate store.

If your on the old jump program, then after using your 1st jump and say you are only a month in, yes you can use your 2nd one, however you won't be able to jump again for 11 months.
On the new jump, you can still apply this, however you have to have half the device paid off, unfortunately.

Yes just the battery.
Now that the Feds are involved (CPSC), I will be shocked, and presently surprised, if they move this quickly. I dropped back to my developer edition of the Note 3 (custom ROM and custom kernel) to wait it out. Love the N7, even without an unlocked bootloader. My local corporate Verizon store has been very helpful. Not particularly worried about successfully trading in my N7 when the fixed ones are in stock, regardless of some "return date". Not sure if a local store manager, or someone higher up the food chain would want to be on the business end of a federal recall.

As always, thanks for jumping in. Much appreciated for sharing what know.
The lack of coordination with the CPSC is also affecting carriers' ability to help with the recall. The WSJ reports that while Samsung has sent an unknown number of Note 7 units to mobile operators, they aren't allowed to distribute them until they receive approval from the CPSC.

If what the Verge is reporting is accurate - that is good and bad. It would mean that most likely Verizon stores have new notes already - bad news is they have to wait on the CPSC to release them - which could take who knows how long.

You and me both. I just switched to verizon and got the note 7 about 3 days before the recall was announced. Very disappointed with this situation.
Do you think they will be any cheaper now?
