They exchanged one for me last week. All they did was deactivate the code and issued me a Visa card. Maybe you didn't speak to the right rep?

The standard motorola support line: 1-800-734-5870. Spoke with sales. I received my promo code for buying the Verizon moto X on day 1 of the motomaker availability. I received my code in my email. Later that day, I saw that they were offering either the promo code or a Visa card, so I called back, explained that I would rather have the Visa card, and they politely said they would send me a card, and please not to use the code as they were going to deactivate it.
Your situation may be different, but I know they CAN swap the code for a card, but it may be a matter of finding a rep that is willing or able to. Try a Sales extension, they seem to have more power to "please the customer."

Lol, they have me on record for calling today already. I don't know if this is going to work. They have me in the system as asking for a trade--I don't think they're going to do it. They suggested I sell the promo code. I have no desire for $100 of accessories, I already have a case that I like, lol.

Order the docks. I have both. Like them very much.

Technically, it was reimbursement. I would much rather have had $50 in cash, but oh well. I essentially would like to give this to someone who wants to buy from Motorola's site. If you're going to buy from that site, might as well use this. It's a win-win.
I really wanted the SlimPowerPack thingys. They aren't available for purchase though.

Not possible. Out of stock forever, and they have NO clue when they will be available again. Meanwhile, I'm sitting here with $100 worth of store credit, and everything I want is "Coming Soon" or "Out of Stock". And they were supposed to send me the Visa gift cards FWIW.

FYI - Unlocked T-Mo Note 3 $669 (EDIT: Cancelled: Stay away from Negri Electronics)

EDIT: Sorry guys, but this coupon code is no longer valid. But it was fun while it lasted, huh. Also, as of 10/8 Negri has increased their price for the unlocked T-Mobile Note 3.
Went to Negrielectronics. Their price is $689, and I used a coupon code (NE20OFFCART) for $20 off, for a total of $669. This is considerably less than T-Mobile's unlocked cost ($704+tax). I got free shipping (Fedex Ground) and no tax as well.
Availability shows as 10-4-13, so i'm hoping that mine ships no later than Monday, as i'm probably not in the first batch of pre-order shipments. EDIT: Now says 'Coming Soon'.
Negri's website now shows the White T-Mobile Note 3 as 'In Stock' with 'Add to Cart' (instead of 'Preorder'). The Black version, however, still says 'Preorder'. Also, Negri's blog (http://goo.gl/iTQyTv) states that the first orders are being shipped out as of yesterday (9/8), and at least one person has stated in this thread that they have received their tracking number.
If you have received your tracking number, please post below with your pre-order date, which color you ordered, as well as your expected delivery date. It will help people figure out where they are in the queue.
Forget all of the above. I have cancelled my order with Negri Electronics. After three weeks of waiting for them to ship, Negri posted on their blog and basically confirmed what many of us have suspected for the last couple of days. Negri is buying their devices from shady suppliers who are selling them used devices. This has resulted in at least of couple of people who thought they were getting NEW Note 3s actually having their devices BLACKLISTED on T-Mobile. In addition, at least one person has received a device rooted with Knox tripped (and thus a voided warranty).
I was willing to put up with the three week delay (though now I feel like an idiot for doing so), but these new issues are unacceptable in my opinion.

Would this be a unlocked bootloader, region unlocked US version?
I went to the store but when they told me the device was locked I decided to buy at Negri's to save me the trouble.
Has anyone with the TMo version verified its locked?

I don't know about a bootloader. I think the unlocked refers to the SIM unlock so that it can be used with any GSM carrier.

They haven't shipped any yet to my knowledge, but I don't see why they would advertise it as unlocked when it is not. But when I get mine I will confirm.

No, I bought the unlocked version. I don't even see a version that would require a plan. I don't think Negri sells phones with contracts/plans. Are you sure we're talking about the same site?

I asked in Chat about the Unlocked and they said I had to select a wireless plan. But I'm thinking they were just trying to push the sales up. I even sent them the link to the phone. But that was untrue.

Thank you for the reply, Reading here on XDA the T-mobile US phones did not have the region lock stickers on them, thats why I was wondering.
Discover is also offering 5% CB if that helps anyone out
delayed shipping
FYI, after talking with the CSR, it looks like the 10/4/13 delivery date is delayed until a week later on 10/10/13.
So will this be the same version, in essence, that i would get directly from tmo? For example, will the negri version still have wifi calling and come in the tmobile packaging?

$200 Off Of The Note 4

Yeah, I wonder as well. I think that it's probably an AT&T question though.
Its not actually $200 off, its a guaranteed $200 trade-in for any working phone. Sure, it mathematically comes out the same in the end, but without a phone to trade, you don't get the $200.
It says in there "come back on 10/10 for the trade in", it still works until then.

Where exactly can we trade in our old smartphones?
does it include blackberry curve as a smartphone? thats my question.

Something new on the promotion site from the last time I saw it; Best Buy customers go in-store to redeem instantly. Also in the fine print it states Best Buy customers do not need to submit the form, so it looks like we can get it from Best Buy without the inconvenience of waiting 6-8 weeks for the rebate check.
Can you apply the BB gift card to the note 4 purchase if you are buying it outright?

Best Buy has their own trade in promotion that gives you an instant $200 gift card when buying a Note 4.
http://www.bestbuy.com/site/promo/samsung-galaxy-note-4-128435
So I went to Best Buy and asked one of their phone guys, about this. He said that basically you pre-order the phone (if you do it online it has to be for in store pick up, which is not available yet on their website). Then when you come into the store to pick up the phone, you can bring in any other working smart phone. Cannot have damage to it. And they need the battery and charger with it too. They will give you a 200$ credit/gift card. That can be used towards the purchase price of the phone. They will apparently let you buy the phone outright too, which I have had issues, doing with them in the past. But now with the mobile share value plans and Next and all it looks like they may have changed their tune about that finaly.
Interesting thing is that it looks like their price is 25$ cheaper than AT&T.

Wait. Any working phone? Could I get 200 for my old captivate?
Edit: aww... I just saw the details. Kinda a pain.
Thank god I decided to look on XDA before pre ordering!
FYI giftcardgranny.com (or similar site) will give you approximately 90% value of the gift card in cash.
I'm trading in an old 3gs
I have hear 2 different answers from Bestbuy on if the promo can be for off contract purchase or not.

200 trade in promo

I just ordered the note4 on 24th first time ever will have a note phone!
Now question to people who did the trade in promo.
I ordered my note4 on the phone couldn't do it online, on 24th I want to trade in a 10$ worth phone on Monday.
Then mail it to them both receipts dates are different so question is if they will accept it? it says it has to be on same receipt but it's impossible in my case.
The promo is extended til 31st because of Verizon having it on 23rd i Think.
Thank guys.

yeah I just saw that but oh well if it works cool and if not then it's okay. my order is pending now and as we learned with the 10 launch that means it should ship soon. probably looking for Monday or Tuesday arrival since I paid for next business day.
Just to update. I just got my FedEx shipping notification just now. they are coming Monday. hopefully they start selling them everywhere soon.

Can I order and ship to a no sales tax state?

I'm about to order a 128GB Pixel XL and Daydream VR (I missed out on the free promo). If I have it shipped to me in Texas, it will cost me over $78 in taxes, almost enough to pay for the Daydream! If I can get them shipped to my brother in New Hampshire, there will be no sales tax and he can re-ship them to me for under $10.
Does anyone know if I can do this on the Google Store? It seems like it would be the same as if I bought something as a gift; use my card and billing address, but use his shipping address. According to this: https://support.google.com/store/answer/6160272?hl=en you're charged tax for the state it's shipped too, and says nothing about the state it's billed to. I'd like to hear from someone this has worked for.

I'm about to order a 128GB Pixel XL and Daydream VR (I missed out on the free promo). If I have it shipped to me in Texas, it will cost me over $78 in taxes, almost enough to pay for the Daydream! If I can get them shipped to my brother in New Hampshire, there will be no sales tax and he can re-ship them to me for under $10.
Does anyone know if I can do this on the Google Store? It seems like it would be the same as if I bought something as a gift; use my card and billing address, but use his shipping address. According to this: https://support.google.com/store/answer/6160272?hl=en you're charged tax for the state it's shipped too, and says nothing about the state it's billed to. I'd like to hear from someone this has worked for.

Were you able to enter your billing and shipping addresses separately on the Google waitlist? That's basically what I'm trying to find the answer to. I'm eligible for the T-Mobile $325 credit for the phone, but hope to save the exorbitant Texas sales tax while I'm at it.

Okay thanks. I just put myself on the waiting list too, so hopefully I'll be able to put in separate addresses when/if it's available.
I'd still like to hear from someone that has done this. I can't be the only person to try it to save sales tax.

Actually I thought about it long before I heard about that scheme, and no my brother is not a reseller.
