Anyone else in the same boat? Have you gotten the email from the escalation team yet? If so, how long did it take for them to contact you?
I am still waiting for the email the rep on the phone told me about last night. I explained that my speaker is too low compared to my GFs N7 and he mentioned a lot of people were complaining about this with the 16GB versions (go figure). He said that they'll ship me a new one and will send packaging labels to return this one. He said I should expect an email from Google some time this week and after that they'll send me the replacement with 1-day shipping. Is this accurate?
At least I can play around with the N7 for the time being. However, it's quite annoying knowing ill have to redo all my setup again. Só many apps, layout changes, settings changes, etc.
Oh well...
PS - Today at work I compared the screens between my 16GB and my coworkers 8GB and his was noticeably brighter when maxed out. Weird and sad that there is another thing I need to worry about now. I guess I expected these QC issues from Asus as an original Transformer owner.

Nice! Wish they would fulfill my order before sending you a second one though... no offense.
I don't really mind the wait for my replacement. I just want some confirmation that they'll indeed be doing it. Don't want to run out of my grace period without getting to test out the second unit.
I'm sure you'll be getting yours soon.
6pm tonight will be 48 hrs since I contacted them, I don't have high hopes of getting a proper 2nd email.
I called them on Tues about the lifted screen and I got an email from them earlier today about getting a replacement. It seems that I will have to order a new unit (my card will be AUTH but not charged) and then the replacement in. They need to get the device within 21 days so that my card doesn't get charged. I've already placed the order through a special URL and now just waiting to see when they will ship.

Oh, I completely understand. Mostly just poking fun anyway
I ordered early but changed it from 8 to 16gb on the 12th, so I have another week to go. They wouldnt honor my original order date despite giving them more money.
I'm too busy looking for a job anyway. Seems veterans aren't as quickly hired as I had previously thought.
I waited 48 still no reply. I tried to call they tel have to wait for escalation team.

I contacted them on Tuesday sadly only a few hours after getting my N7. My speaker is defective as well, and like you said when I brought it up they mentioned its been coming up lately. Same deal, told me they would ship out a new one for me within 24hrs however they didn't mention anything about 1 day shipping. That would be great.
Just under 24hrs later last night I received two emails back including the return shipping label info and another with a link to a custom play store checkout with my 16gb replacement. I put in my order via the link they gave me but I was greeted with an error on the next page, however I promptly received an email confirming my order so I guess it went through anyways.
All that's left now is waiting to see when it ships..
I hope it's soon.

I was wondering if my 16GB version suffered from low volume levels. I'm still on the fence about it. That would be the only possible defect my device has.

I called Tuesday night (and I emailed them Tuesday afternoon). My Nexus 7 arrived with a cracked screen.
I just received the email from google. They sent me a RMA and a prepaid shipping label. There's also a link to have them send me a replacement unit.
The link takes me to my google wallet account, with a new 16 GB in the cart. They don't charge shipping or tax, but put a hold for $249 on your credit card. I have 21 days to return the defective Nexus 7.
I'm a little worried that I am basically buying a new Nexus 7, and not getting priority over someone who ordered today. If I have to wait 3-4 weeks, I will feel like google mislead me about this Nexus 7 replacement process.

Same thing through office Depot. They do next day shipping though but they do that ludicrous credit card hold. Probably the dumbest thing I've ever heard of and makes me not want to order online anymore. Walking into a store you don't pay shipping nor get a hold on your card. Very very inconvenient.

My issue is that there are many other online vendors that handle things fine... mainly Amazon.com. How google is handling this issue is terrible. "oh man, phones are getting flooded, TAKE DOWN THE SUPPORT NUMBER FROM OUR WEBSITE"
I have said this in other threads.... This is the last time I ever buy a device straight from google. Hardware issues can't be their fault 100%, stuff happens... It's how they are handling the problems that is frustrating.

This is what they told me that would happen. I'm still waiting for the RMA email but at least they are sending them out.
Bad news if you're technically buying a new one at zero price. Here in the UK, they've said that pre orders from June 30th are shipping next week, so I'm looking at a week Monday shipment at the earliest. Over a month since the initial order!
On a related note, just how low is this "low speaker volume" problem? I'd say mine isn't the loudest tablet ever, and now I'm wondering if it's possible to get one with louder volume. I have a tiny bit of screen separation and was going to keep mine (everything else is fine, and my screen's just the tiniest bit higher on the left than the right). However, if the volume is lower than it should be...
Also, anybody notice headphone volume also isn't very loud? Just loud enough to be acceptable, but not loud enough to be too loud. I'm used to devices starting to get too loud at about 75%.

I did receive all the emails in regards to the exchange, I'm just waiting on any sort of shipping notice. The only thing that bothers me is I checked my card and I have 3 pending charges from the play store in the amount of the tablet. Not just one, I know I won't be charged if I return the defective unit in 21 days but why 3 charges?

Hey guys just passing along my horror story from the Google Play Store. So I pre-ordered my Nex7 on June 29th cool, got it on July 17th. Opened it up and started charging it. It doesn't accept a charge from the included charger, or so I tried 3 other chargers no go, tried from my computer to the tablet and it lets me access the internal storage like it should but alas, no charging. Factory reset no go, long story short I'm not a Android noob my any means and tried everything because honestly who wants to mail back their new toy? Called support waited on hold for a little over an hour which was expected because I'm sure a ton of people were calling asking where theirs as at so it is what it is. So it gets sent to the "Internal" team for RMA and exchange and they will Email me my UPS stuff. So 4 days later I get the email (July 21st) and I ship it back on the following Monday (July 23rd) and order the new one the same day which the pre-authorized my card for the 249.99 in case I never send back my original makes sense ok. Normally the new one is mailed out in 3 days or so. So Thursday (July 26th) rolls around and Google gets my old tablet and mine still hasn't shipped. So finally on Monday (July 29th) I call to ask if something is wrong or whatever because I still haven't seen anything on my replacement tablet and I get the explanation of it's "Stuck" and the "Internal" team is looking into it. So at that point I'm curious what stuck actually is? I've sent in my old one and it was received and I've ordered my new one with was pre-authorized. She didn't know but assured me I'd get an email VERY soon on it. So fast forward to today (August 13th) I've called once a week to inquire about it and I'm still being polite about it because I've had to work customer service when I was younger and I know these poor people get freaked out on by tons of callers even though they didn't do anything wrong. Today I was told that apparently the ENTIRE internal team was in a meeting until noon today (Right?) and the CSR I talked to today would personally talk to a few of them because it's been 3 weeks since I put in my order for a replacement and it SHOULD take roughly 3 day (I'm not holding my breath).
So basically I'm failing to see the problem here. They received my old one, they've charged me for a new one, but it hasn't been sent. I'm not understanding why it takes 3 weeks to solve this problem on my it's "Stuck" when it should take about 30 seconds to look at my account and see everything is as it should be and send the new one.
On a side note I never activated it on my account so it's not like there's a $20 credit they're trying to sort out or anything it's all about as strait forward of an exchange as you can get. I've already purchased a Nexus 7 from Sams Club (Before mine ever came in the mail) and this one was suppose to be for my girl friend and now she's mad because she loves mine and wants her own. I doubt even if this gets resolved today I'll ever buy from them again and if it doesn't get resolved I guess I'll return it and drive 10 minutes to Walmart and buy one.
Sorry if it seems like a rant but I figured I'd just share my current experience with the Play Store.

he'll wait a long, long time for his money back if he does that. Day 15(in terms of business/working days) since i refused delivery of my tablet and still no refund in sight.
Check this out I have been submitting a return request every monday or tuesday for 3 straight weeks. Absolutely nothing. I hate waiting on the phone but I guess I will have to. Why do they have the form there when they never answer the requests? I'm not picky about customer service but this is terrible.

Ten_fold is correct, it will take 2 weeks to get my money back even though they've had my original device in their hands for a "Pending" exchange for almost a month now. I'm not really picky or anything but this whole thing is pretty nuts. Honestly at my job if I did stuff like this I'm pretty sure I'd be fired pretty quick especially since this isn't even anything special just mail the Fing thing out.

I'm not super stressed about it, but having £168 of my money taken away from me for almost a month, for an item i technically never even received is beyond a joke really.
I refused my order from the Play Store as instructed by Google when they wouldn't let me cancel. A month on and I'm still waiting for my refund.

It's the Google Wallet transaction page.
I had a very similar experience with Logitech, and after I sent a formal written complaint they sent me a free G700 gaming mouse ($100 value).
I'd recommend actually reaching out to Google in a formal and professional manner. See if you can find the email address for a customer service member, or someone a little higher up the food chain.

Do you know how long til they confirm you will get it?
I got mine today.
Samsung sent me 2 of them, both black. Not sure how this happened, but I am not going to argue, that's for sure.
The weird part is I got an email yesterday telling me it was still on back order. Maybe that is for the other 5 they are going to accidentally send me?

I ordered it the same day that the full version of Samsung Pay came out, which I think was the 28th of September.
Come to think of it, I had a lot of issues getting the order to complete since I think the site was getting hammered with requests for the offer. I am thinking that may be how I wound up getting 2 of them. I remember having to try and re-submit the order multiple times because it would time out on almost each step.
So 30 days from order to front door. That's not too bad for that kind of promotion. Faster than most rebates too.
Has to be a new offer.
Offer valid 10/28/15 – 11/8/15
Anyone know if you used the previous promotion if you will be able to use this one again? cant check right now so if someone has let us know. thanks

The T&C say no.
I put in for each of our phones.... so 3 of them should be delivered.
I got the phone on 9/29 signed up the same day. Rooted it and said goodbye to samsung pay 10/29. Coincidentally the same day they shipped me the free charger.
The new offer is not working on my wife's note5. She just signed up and added a card today but the app says the promotion is expired. WTF Samsung!
I noticed the dates on the app are dofferent. Maybe try their website. What cards are yall using? I'm having trouble just trying to find a correct card

Its worth a shot anyways. This time they don't provide a promo code that is on your phone like they did with the first promo. Samsung got smart and are tracking it by IMEI and Wifi MAC Address this time around so it should only be a 1 time thing now.

Why are you surprised? Once you do the offer and get the promo code and make the Samsung order, Samsung doesn't check to see if you are still using it.

It took me almost a month, but I finally got mine delivered this week. Works and was completely free. Can't complain.
I'm In Greensboro, NC, and have been told there are no Note7 phones for exchange in the area - closest in Charlotte, NC. I was also told by a manager the "promotions" end on 9/30, and after that: re-stocking fees will apply, phone must be returned with accessories and charger, no color or model changes. When I asked when they expected shipments of phones in, I was told it would be sometime next week.
Anyone else hearing about shortages of Note7 phones for exchange?
I ordered one through customer service last night. They said nothing about shortages, but I wouldn't be surprised. Customer service is stocked full of liars.
According to the sales rep that exchanged my Note 7 yesterday, T-Mobile has been changing the return process daily so this manager may not have the lasted procedures. I see no need to return the box and all the accessories unless someone is trying to make a killing on eBay on used Note 7 items.

That and this is no "promotion." Samsung, through their sales agent T-Mobile, is required by law to accept defective units in exchange for as long as they are out in the wild. They don't need the original packaging.
That said, if all you present is a phone, that's all T-Mobile is required to give you in exchange. They don't have to give you the box and the goodies that came with it.
On 9/21 stores around my area had long lines with long waiting time, I did not have time to wait and today (9/22) they are all out of stock. However the way I understand it, recall is a recall and there is no time limit especially if they run out of stock, so I don't worry too much about it. As far as exact procedure: some people didn't return box at all and had no problem, some needed at least empty box to return (quiet few of my coworkers have N7), so there might be some confusion among clerks how to proceed, but that's expected since recall of this magnitude is unusual and procedures are made as we go along. As a side note: I was hopping some people would jump ship and leave more replacement N7's for me to choose from , but doesn't seem it's happening that often, for example none of the 6 people I know who got N7, went for something else, they all just replaced it with new N7, so no wonder they're out of stock, but more comming soon.

When I exchanged mine, they asked for the box as it was easier for them as it had the SKU number on it they could scan rather than look for it in the account notes and copy paste it. They said it wasn't required and that I could have it back if I wanted (they didn't give it back.) This was the same for the loaner they took back in the store as well. When they went to get my EIP cleared so I could get the new phone, they made me give back the loaner and the retail CS rep that was on the phone with the store processed that return too. Took about an hour and 15 minutes but I love my new device and my account seems all in order after two EIP refunds and a new phone added. Crystal Lake, IL.
They also refunded all the EIP/downpayment/taxes I paid so far on the recalled note 7 and recharged me all of it for the new one.

I would. You got stores selling the device to people who never had the note 7 to begin with...have people saying they had it ship to stores, It definitely will NOT hurt. This recall showed some ugly inconsistent side to tmobile I think even they want to fix

I called Wednesday night to order one. I got an immediate text confirming the order. I haven't yet received shipping information. Par for the course at T-Mobile.
I do concede that I called about 6:30 PM and that I might have passed the deadline for shipping Wednesday. However, Thursday has come and gone without further word.
It's a real shame that you can speak to three people at T-Mobile and get three completely different and contradictory answers.
Well i show up on the 21, waited a little over and hour at tmobile.
Finally get up there and told they sold out and dont have any more black note 7 and they never got any sliver ones (wife has sliver).
So called a few more stores and same crap no one had any left.
Called the 1-800 number and was told they have to order them to the store. So did so, last night my wife got a text saying her has been ship.
Mines still no update.
But i have talk with a few other people and they said all tmobile needs is just the phone itself. So i plan on keeping my spend. Already upset that i gotta lost my skinomi screen protector and buy a new one, upset that i waited in line that to be told they dont have any. When i first walk in they knew why we where there.
So i will be keeping my box, charger, cable, otg and spen.
And there isnt any deline on the return. BY LAW they have to waive all fees and do the exchange. Doesnt matter how long it takes or what there stock looks like. If you have an effected device they have to exchange it.

I called Wednesday night to order two, and the representative said they should arrive in the store by Monday. I got texts the following morning confirming the order, immediately followed by texts stating that the phones were on back order. No ETA was given. So I don't know if they're arriving this weekend or November. There's no indication of an order on the web site.

My saga gets even more interesting. I just got a text saying that I'm no longer eligible for the Note 7 exchange program. When I went to the T-Mobile website to find out why, there's a bill sitting there for the monthly charge on an S7 that I never got and a deposit and lease payment for the loaner S7 Edge that I never put in service.
Called Thursday to get replacement and was put on a call list....next day got called while at work that phones were in stock and to come before 7pm to get the swap done same day. Got there at 6pm...walked in store they announce a 2hr wait...put name on list with number....2 and a half hpurs later they weren't answering the phone....decide to drive over to check the situation....30 minutes before closing they're door was locked, with a few customers still in the store finishing their transactions......i was pissed but contained, talked to the rep through the door and she apologized and asked me to arrive 10 minutes before opening the next day....i agree. Come back this morning as we agreed 15 minutes before they opened and there was already about 5 people waiting in line....dammit i thought....suddenly the door cracked open the rep from the night before waved me in and gracefully ran through my swap....took about 20 minutes and she was a peach. Glad to have my replacement plus dual accessories including SPen. Didn't power phone till i was ready to root, and kept the sim card removed until phone was rooted and restored with my titanium backup.
Btw i took my original box minus everything in it cause while they should and will return without the box, it really makes their job easier and from what i gathered they are dealing with these swaps from the start of the business day to closing with continuous lines forming.
It sucked being turned away yesterday but today's service left me feeling good.
Just moved from NJ to GA. On the 21st i called a tmobile in Riverdale they had 7 available all blue. They didn't ask for anything the rep went right into the info and got the imei. The phone didnt even have the spen in it. They told me by the time i got there at noon there was only 2 left and they couldnt. Wait till they was done with these because of the process they had to go thru. Only issue i had was that they told me everything would stay the same. But I only had 23 payments left on my note 7 since i preordered it and got it when it cameout. They restarted my payments back to 24 and didnt refund me the $32.50 i had to call tmobile to get that credited back to me. So watchout for that.

I'm In Greensboro, NC, and have been told there are no Note7 phones for exchange in the area - closest in Charlotte, NC. I was also told by a manager the "promotions" end on 9/30, and after that: re-stocking fees will apply, phone must be returned with accessories and charger, no color or model changes. When I asked when they expected shipments of phones in, I was told it would be sometime next week.
Anyone else hearing about shortages of Note7 phones for exchange?

I pre-ordered mine a few days ago and it still says it's processing . They took the money right away and I thought it was strange how I haven't got a ship date yet . Anyone else face the same issue?
I used a JoD since it was $0 down. I got mine on the 30th. So far it's okay, upgraded from the S10. I do love the flat screen!

That seems odd. My experience is Samsung does not charge your card until it is shipped. You need to contact Samsung Chat > order support.
