You got yours pretty quick, I am still in the 6-8 week waiting phase. They said they will send shipping info once it ships. Did they do that for you? And did you send them any info before hand?

Yeah, they made me sign an affidavit and all that jazz. It took about 2 weeks to verify and I had the phone within another 2 weeks. They'll send you a shipping confirmation email.

Congrats on winning,I won too. I have 2 questions. The first is the verification come in two weeks or the shipping info. I filled out the form and got a confirmation two days after. That came two weeks ago. So should the shipping info becoming soon?
The second is what color did you get it in? Because I want to order a case.
Thanks.

HTC One Mid Night Release Online?

I plan on purchasing my HTC One M8 online at tmobile.com
It will be my first time making a purchase from the online store on tmobile.com, does anyone know at about what time will TMobile put the phone up for sale on the website?
Will it be at midnight? Or will it be around 8-9AM similar to the time retail stores open?

Why not just go to the store tomorrow?
Sent from my SGH-M919 using Tapatalk 2

Especially since you would have to wait for shipping

No point on ordering it on line and wait for a Monday shipping. I'll be in line at the store at 10am

My work hours are 14 hour shifts and store will be closed by the time I get off. I work Fri Sat Sun LOL will be Monday when Im off again.
If I do over night shipping I can have it on my door step saturday if im lucky or Monday morning.
Which is why im wondering if the phone will be up for sale tonight at midnight.
Has anyone bought a 0day phone online before from tmobile.com?

Stores by me are all opening at 8, probably for the S5 also.

Its not on the site yet.... 1am EST....

Already placed my order online.
It doesn't show up on the main page, you have to log into your account, choose to upgrade or add a line and it will magically appear.
Chose the expedite shipping for $24.95 cause I can't wait, ETA is 4/14.:good::good:

I chose Saturday delivery which was 24.99 so I hope i get it tomorrow since I will be at work all 14 hours today!

My store opened at 8 am and I was 4th in line, everyone was getting a Galaxy S5. While I was waiting for my turn I was playing with the S5 demo to see I'll change my mind in the last second...No thanks...I'll take the M8, which they only had 5 in stock.

I was the second at my Tmo store and there other person was getting a GS5, people that walked in after me were getting the GS5 and there were a couple samsung reps there. I was like y'all need to chill. The samsung rep asked me why I was getting the M8 and I was like it's 90% metal, I don't like plastic. He smiled and walked away hahahahhahaha

Just got mine! Loving the 3D camera mode.

I can confirm that WeakSauce does not work on this device because we don't have /system/lib/libdm-systemaccess.so on our devices.
That's okay, because HTC Dev will generate a bootloader unlock code for the device, so you can unlock the bootloader and root that way.

How do we send or Note 7 back to Verizon?

I traded mine in for a V20. It is suppose to arrive today in the mail. My question is how do i send back the Note 7? do i have to pay to send it in? not sure how this works.

You are supposed to be getting a separate box directly from Samsung. I got it today. It is ridiculous with ceramic plates in case the phone catches on for during transit.

Same here. I think they are letting the guys who handled the first recall work on sending out the boxes!

So i guess we just keep the phone. No box yet. The V20 is dope

I called Verizon AGAIN a few days ago and finally spoke with someone who had a clue. He said they just got the boxes and a SKU has been assigned to them so they can ship them out. He said I should be getting mine in 3 to 5 business days.

Well if they send a box ill send back the phone. im not going out of my way to do it. Im really liking the V20 now.

I received my replacement phone(S7edge) on Oct 20 and was told I would get the "special Box" to send back my Note7, soon. Well it has been 10 days and I received the box on the 11th day. So long Note 7, I am really gonna miss you! I really did like the phone! The Note 8 cant get here fast enough!

Did you get it?
Turns out that Verizon gave me the phone number to the Samsung center handling the recall boxes. I got that box sent 2nd day air and I put the phone in it and send it UPS ground.
I called to see if they got the phone and they said they did and my check will be sent in a couple of days. I asked what check and they are sending me a full price refund (over $800) !

Yes I got it today and brought it to the UPS store. Did you pay full price for yours? I did with mine which was a mistake,hopefully it won't take too long to get a refund.

No, I paid for an upgrade ($299)

I got a box for my phone, then I got a second. A third just shipped.

I too waited patiently for the return shipment box to arrive. I finally gave up and called Verizon support asking when the return shipment box would arrive, given that I will not receive credit until I send it back. They made up some story about having already shipped it to me a week ago, but quickly offered to reship it. It arrived via FedEx this morning.
My question is, are people keeping the S pen when returning the awesome Note 7? I have someone with a Note 5 that may find it useful.

Lots of inconsistencies throughout this process.
I just got off the phone with the local Verizon corporate store. The lady said I need to bring the phone to them to get a refund of what i paid ($299+tax). I mentioned hearing about a special box to return the phone to Samsung and the lady said they take care of all that for me.
She also said starting 7th they will be deactivating the phones that are still in use.

I got a box and returned the phone. I got a second box the other day.
Today I got 2 more boxes!

Has anyone gotten a check from Samsung after returning your Note 7?

If so, how long did it take from the time they got your phone?

My phone was received on Oct 21st and I have still not received my check. Today makes 14 business days when I call the hotline they told me give it to mid next week. I'm frustrated to say the least.
What date did they receive your return?

Not sure why kinda scam they really pulling and they have absolutely no information when you call, they just extend the date. They can't provide you tracking for the check , can't tell you if your check has been shipped, no email correspondence, and no way to check the status of your return. Samsung's advanced return system. What a joke

I'm supposed to be getting a bill credit from Verizon next month, but last night I received a package to return my note 7 which I have not had in my possession for over a month, and checked my orders section on my Verizon account and have a new order pending for a return of merchandise. If Verizon screws me on this I'm going to be ticked. I will fight it.

Finally got something from Verizon after numerous calls, I paid full price for the N7. I am suprised they are refunding me for the accessories as well. It also says they are sending me another return box I already got 2 and returned the phone a few weeks ago.
Your Samsung Galaxy Note7 refund has been processed.
We processed your refund due to the recent recall of your purchased Samsung Note7. You will receive a check in 2-3 weeks for the amount of $923.30, which includes the purchase price of the device, any purchased Note7 accessories, and any fees paid during your upgrade or exchange.
If you have not already upgraded your Note7, you qualify for special incentives when you upgrade to a new device. The easiest way to upgrade is online:
• Customers upgrading to another Samsung device will receive a $100 bill credit. Customers upgrading to any other device will receive a $25 bill credit. Credits will be applied to your bill in 1-2 bill cycles.
• Upgrade fees will be waived at checkout.
• Plus, all orders receive free 2-day shipping.
• For detailed instructions and FAQs, please visit: go.vzw.com/note7faq.
After your order is processed, you will receive a special recovery box to return your Note7. Please send us your Note7 at your earliest convenience.
Thank you

I got an email about receiving a check and the bill credit. Then I was just checking my bank account and noticed a change and it was the refund from the phone.

I called Samsung today and they told me 4 to 8 business days to get the check. It's been since Oct 31 when I they received the Note 7.

I got my check in the mail yesterday! I forgot about it, actually, so it was a nice surprise lol

ok?????

I actually got a check yesterday.

Got a check
But it was only 54 dollars. Supposed to get a 100 dollar bill credit, plus I lost my monthly payments I had paid towards the two note 7s while I had them. Definitely lost out a bit on this deal but love my V20

Anybody get one from Samsung yet?

I got a complete refund for my note 7 that I paid 2 year contract price for ($339). Still have the phone. I called twice about a box and never got one...safe to say now I have a free phone. I pray that Samsung doesn't kill switch these phones. Think I read somewhere that 12/15 was D-day for all remaining note 7s. Can anyone else confirm this?

Got mine check today from Samsung finally! $945 woohoo! Not bad for paying $600!

Anyone Received The $50 Credit?

Sooo, I didn't think I was getting this, but I got an email saying I was eligible last week. Anyway, this week will be 4 weeks since I received my phone. I'm hoping to get it by next week in case Google has any black friday/cyber Monday deals.
Anyone gotten the credit yet?

still waiting for this crap

Lucky you, I preowned and I am not eligible for a stupid reason. I can't even find the deal anymore to see why. Big disappointment in that.

I takes a few weeks dude. They wait until the return period is over so you don't get a free $50. Last year with the home mini, it was right at 4 weeks if I remember right. So, it should come any day now.

I wouldn't be surprised if they wait the full six weeks in order to get past the Black Friday deals.

I'll be PISSED. That would be such BS.

mine arrived during the night...

Found mine today

Yais! Hopefully mine is here today too! $50 Google home hub for the win!

I might use mine to buy another Pixel on black Friday and sell this one on swappa [emoji23]
J/k but seriously the price drop makes me feel like such a sucker for buying early. Oh well.

Check Google Pay, my credit showed up in the Google Pay app even though I didn't get any email or notification

Yeah! But buy what though?
But what are you all planning to buy with it? So far my options are the Pixel Stand or Skullcandy Riff. Leaning more towards the Riff, good reviews for $50, wireless & assistant too. As for the stand, they aren't that special, just another wireless stand. I see soon more certified and Made for Google wireless chargers coming in the future which could be cheaper than the Pixel stand.
Also, expires this Dec 31. So have to use it before that! So might just go for that Riff.

Let us know! I seriously doubt they'll honor this for anyone who bought earlier though. Next year I am definitely waiting for black Friday before buying the pixel 4xl...

Does this only apply to those who bought directly from google store?
