Google Financing option... - Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers

I am curious for the people who used this option...do you have to wait to use the account? I am approved but they're telling me I have wait 7 to 10 days to use the card?
What doesn't make sense to me...can someone who was approved let me know if they have to wait or can use it right away?
Thanks in advance!

Same here, used it right away. Also interesting note was that I applied using my wife's credit info {with her consent of course, after all, she's the ones who ruined my credit} and still used it right away connected to my Google account.

I have no idea why they say I have to wait...I have the card number and it is just says invalid when I try to add it as a payment in checkout and also tried adding to my Google payments account. I have contacted both Google and synchrony and they have no idea why it won't work. I even logged into the account to verify the funds are available. All there.
Thanks for you comments. Appreciate it very much.

Haha well if that is the case in MN I can buy a gun instantly lol (conceal and carry)

Its a card with the account number on it in the mail. Says wait 7 days to get after 10 days if you don't get it call. The card is just the number so you can have it if you need to pay a bill. Like the amazon store card same bank

It took a few minutes, but once it was approved, when I went to the store it told me it was available to use for the purchase.
I did not have to add it as a payment option.
I also had called synchrony, they gave me the number over the phone, and told me it was available for use right away.

Yeah, it was never added to my payment account so I'm starting to think that there is a problem with the account. When I try and use the card number it says invalid so it obviously isn't working. Lol

I would totally check on it. Try and contact Synchrony directly? Mine was not only immediate but I was able to see the actual account via the Google Store showing balance, available credit, account number etc.
Makes me wonder if you did not get "click jacked."

Sounds like Google's site doesn't see the account at all!

are you by chance using a different email for synchony than your google store account ?

Google and Synchrony can't seem to figure it out. They don't have any idea why my Gmail account isn't showing my credit card from them. They are escalating the issue higher up to see if they can find out where it went wrong.
At least the phone I want is still out of stock!(I was trying to pre-order on the 4th too, been almost 10 days). [emoji35]

I am not same email I just chatted with Google and they don't even see my application or account at all. So I am going to contact Synchrony and see if they can fix that otherwise the Google rep told me to reapply?

I went for the Google Financing option for my pre-order of a 32gb at Project Fi.
But I haven't gotten any communication from the credit card company Google is using.
What is ya'll experience?
I went to use it to buy a Chromecast but the option wasn't there.

My experience: ordered 32gb silver xl through synchrony in 10/13. On 10/14, got email that 128gb was in stock. Canceled 32gb and ordered 128gb silver. Card was being declined so had to call synchrony. They said there was a hold on it as they wanted to confirm the purchase for the 128gb since the price was higher. Confirmed it. Hour later, got an automated call to confirm the purchase again. So all in all 2 contacts.
Google store does not show my card. I also have not setup my account with synchrony online or anything. Also not showing anything in payments.google.com. However orders page shows cancelled 32gb and preordered 128gb. shipping est Nov 23ish. Also got all the emails for everything.

Quick questions:
1. Is it possible to get the monthly payments billed to an existing credit card?
2. did you all just sign up at check out of your order to get the financing option?
3. should I being applying for the Google financing while waiting for the variant I want to come back in stock (to avoid possible chance of it going out of stock again during the application process)?
Sent from my Nexus 6 using Tapatalk

1. Maybe? But it would go through synchrony. Unless you just buy it with credit card.
2. Signed up during checkout
3. Signed up while phone was on backorder and trying to get order in. Ended up signing up the day before I actually ordered. When I actually ordered, store credit was an option.
Sent from my SM-N930P using Tapatalk

Just wanted to let everyone know that my issue was my wife was signed in to my email when she never uses my PC. So I applied for the financing under her Gmail account!
I felt really dumb for not checking that but she never uses my computer so that is why I never thought of it.
So, all is resolved on my end. So the problem is now that the Pixel XL is on back order I just ordered from Verizon and will be receiving it tomorrow! (I wanted to get from Google for the unlocked bootloader) but the phone will have everything I want(I want root for adaway mainly).
Thanks for all the replies.

That can't be right. When you reset Google Wallet, the amount disappears unless you sign back up again. The credit is stored in an account.
That said, I don't see a way to get Money Market to cough up your funds other than by using Google Wallet.

I had network issues restoring mine yesterday and it gave me a phone number. I had no reason to save it since it worked fine when I had connection, but if you start to restore the card then turn on airplane mode, it should pop out the same phone number
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk
If the money you have left is money that you added to the google prepaid card, then:
Call money market, they will ask you for the prepaid card number, which I don't think you saved. But you can also give them the Order # from when you added funds funds (you can find it in the receipt that they emailed you).
I'm pretty sure they can refund it to you somehow.
Note: To identify yourself,they will ask you from your name to how many times a day you take a crap.
I know all this because this is how I transferred previous balance from a returned phone to the new one.
Good luck.
It makes sense you can't keep it. That 10 wasn't just for free, it was to use Google wallet, since you have a phone that cannot use Google wallet now, the terms of the promotion no longer applies to you and you don't get to keep the money. Seems fairly straight forward. Not trying to be an ass btw

I tried when I log into my Google wallet account on the computer the Google prepaid card is not there.
Well anyway I called Google wallet and they transferred me to money market I had to give them first 4 and last 4 digits of the card I used to load the prepaid than had to go thru identity check they need your full name, address and SSN#. They will send me a check in main with deducted 5$ fee for making the check I guess. The only thing it takes 45 to 65 days for it to come in mail. Now I can rest easy.

Provisioning of Google Wallet Prepaid Cards Restored

http://www.theverge.com/2012/2/15/2...ecurity?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter
Good news. Google Wallet "fixed" and provisioning of cards restored.
My wifes GN is now working fine, my GN that I had reset my wallet is not. All I get is the "Try Again" or "Remove Card" options. I called Google they sent me to Money Network who was a overnight call taker, didnt know much of anything. He created a ticket for the issue. Thank for info OP, at least I know they are not planning to take over the world with my $20! LoL
I tried activating the card, but it still states that service not available....Contacted Google and they informed that the pre-paid card is temporarily unavailable now....am i missing something?
yea this is a serious tease.......ugh
sidenote
the really really odd thing, i just called them about a hour ago when I didnt see these articles yet and neither google wallet or money networks had any freaking idea. they basically said "we hope to have a fix by friday, if not monday"
wtf
That's weird. Mine's working and shows the card/bank info and everything.

mine isnt working at all ive cleared the cache and even uninstalled and reinstalled
From what I've found, the announcement about prepaid working again is for new users - those that haven't set up Wallet on their devices before.
Folks that have had Wallet and kept their data intact during the "outtage" *should* be able to continue to use Wallet as normal.
Those who wiped their data (as I did in preparation for a ROM upgrade) are still waiting on their prepaid cards to be made available. This is what I found out when I called Google and Money Network this morning; I'll call again tomorrow and see if there's any change.

Thanks for the update. Plz update us tomorrow after your findings?
Just went and tried to buy batteries at Rite Aid with my phone. Payment came up I held it on the terminal, then entered my PIN and put it back on the terminal. After a couple seconds it said "sent" but the merchant never got confirmation. I took it off the terminal and it gave an error saying to have the merchant reset it or whatever. Tried about 4-5 times it did the same thing every time.
Anyone else have this experience?
Also, looking at my transaction record it looks like the first one actually went through... but my balance doesn't reflect that, and it never gave me the merchant name or $ total. Thinking maybe they messed something up on their end? And after the first one didn't get accepted it blocked me from accidentally making multiple purchases?
edit: In the notes area, I wrote that. It was blank.
You most likely needed to hit "ok" on the physical terminal. Some stores you don't, some you do.
My wallet isn't working either. I had data in it (showed $3.XX balance), but it kept failing when I tried to add funds. I reinstalled and now I get the "Prepaid is unavailable" when I try to add the prepaid card.

No prompt on the terminal at all. It just sat blank. Never got prompted to choose credit/debit either as the Google Wallet tutorials say you may have to select "credit" if possible. The terminal was blank the whole time : /
I know it may be having issues now but this experience isn't making me confident about Google Wallet. I really really want to be able to use this.

I heard trying to get your money back is a real pain in the ass. They deduct $5 (maybe more or less) to make you a check, mail the check, and then it takes a few weeks to receive. This whole situation has now become an ungodly mess.

I'm also a bit concerned that it may involve a software upgrade and if that's the case I've had issues linking wallet to the market on my Verizon GN considering it isn't officially supported on Verizon phones.

There are two promotions..... The 128GB SD card is by per-ordering on T-mobile. The rep is probably right. You are referring to the promotion through LG, which works as you described. The LG promo is for G4 purchases through June and is a 32GB SD card, battery, and charging cradle for the battery.
There is also a promo for pre-ordering through BestBuy, for a $100 gift card.

I just completed the form today with a T-mobile variant and the form accepted and sent me an email with some information including the following:
"Please be on the lookout for a confirmation email letting you know the approval status of your submission within the next 5 business days.
Your Submission ID is XXXX. (id removed)
If you have any questions regarding this email please contact us at [email protected] or 1-800-793-8896."
So, I would think you could try contacting them at that email address or phone number if it has been more than 5 business days. I will wait until next Wednesday 6/10 before I start getting upset.

I did contact them and they said to email the stuff to them. I'm not going to follow that because that's not the suggested way, either online or mail it in. so since Verizon's imei's are showing up invalid I'm mailing mine in. They said, of course, my imei is valid just no answer why I can't submit online.

I did not get it instantly. This is how you have to do it. When you go into the Samsung Pay app you have to go to the "more" option on the top right. Then click on "promotions" and find the promotion in the list. You have to accept the terms and conditions before it will send you the digital gift card. Hope this helps.

Thank you, Volfan. Yes, I tried that also. I'm wondering if it was because I used an Amazon.com card. It is underwritten by Chase and can be used anywhere, so I don't consider it a "private label" card, which is excluded from the promo. Of course now the promo is over, so can't try another card.
I made a purchase and got confirmation in the app that I had earned the credit. But it got stuck on the last step--loading the rewards card--despite trying repeatedly over several days. I e-mailed Samsung about it, but haven't heard back--I suspect they're dealing with bigger issues.
Got mine right away
Here in Cambodia, samsung pay isnt even available. Such a complete let down. Why cant this kind of service available worldwide?

Google store canceled my order

So, I place my order on the 4th for Pixel XL 128g in black using Google financing option. Order was successful, so I thought. Never got a confirmation email or anything. After submitting the page landed on order history with "Canceled" in the header. Login to sysnchrony and all my available credit is gone and there is a pending payment for the amount of the whole order. Fast fw to today, still same pending amount..a rep at google finance tell me that it shows approved and I should contact google store to get shipment info and what not.
Google store has no history of my order and keep insisting I used the wrong email to place the order haha wtf ever. They can't find any damn trace of it. No trace of it in my order history either. So guess I'm not getting the Pixel!!
I went through the same thing....Google finance still says it's pending. Google doesn't show anything.

Were you able to reorder? Even if I ever get to reorder looks like they are out of stock for XL anyways.
Not with Google finance. I went ahead and just put it on my credit card. I tried Google finance again yesterday and it was declined because of the pending charge.
Gotcha. I'm going do the same once the XL is back to stock.
Got email from Google explaining that they had some technical difficulties on some orders, mine being one. Anyways, got $100 off promo code for my reorder when its back in stock.

I used the chat feature on the Google store. The chat agent then scheduled a call back to me from a higher level. When they called, their number didn't even show on phone. I called them back from the help feature chat or call. Don't remember the number off hand though.

Return it go a few days without a phone.
I was a victim of this as well. I called and was told that if I were to cancel my new XL 128gb pre-order and reorder with the promo code, I would have to wait likely another month before I receive the phone. I decided against it, but the rep was cool and added a ton of notes to my account so when I activate it, ill get some sort of credit towards my Fi account to compensate. He also confirmed that my device would def ship on the 21st.
My order was cancelled and the Google store is saying due to financial issues on my end but, the full amount was removed from my bank account (I purchased using the pay now option using my bank card which I used to purchase the Nexus 6 and 6P) . Google is still trying to tell me that my bank didnt approve the purchase but, you can clearly see the purchase amount has been paid to "Purchase authorization Google Devices" and yet, Im being told a different story from the Google support team. Cant ask for a supervisor bc they just tell you that they can only escalate the issue and have someone get back to me. I definitely want some sort of credit or something given I have been a Google faithful for years and have been on the Fi network for a year now too....

yeah, i havent had any response at all. And I have sent multiple emails w/screenshots of my acct information showing the purchase of the "Google Devices" in my acct balance history. It even has my monthly payment to project Fi right above that so called "declined purchase" . So they somehow can automatically take payment for my Fi service, send me my Nexus 6P and my Fi sim cards not to mention my Google cardboard etc.... several things have been purchased through the same acct with NO issues, now all the sudden Im having a bunch of problems... be serious Google....
