Let me be sure I understand this right. They will only accept orders on 4/15/11 after 10 am pt? I had hoped to order it at 12:01 am on 4/15/11. Guess if this is correct I will have to change my schedule.lol
I heard they're only taking preorders on the 15th at least that's what the rep I spoke to over the phone told me, I hope it's not true...can't wait...

If you are doing an upgrade yes, as per Streamline which is where all the information for us tmo employee"s to look at is. I was hoping to order at 12:01 as well.
I just pre-ordered my Sprint Note 8 online at bestbuy.com a couple days ago. Says I will receive it by the 15th. Has anyone received theirs yet? I got the email confirmation of my order but when I login my account on best buy to check order status, I get this error message. The money has already been deducted out of my bank account. Anyone else experiencing this? Just want to make sure my order went through.
I just checked. Mine (VZW) are still sitting in preordered status. I wonder if I'll see them on the 15th, or after. My experience with BB orders is that they rarely come when the order page says that they will.
My credit card has not been charged yet.

Yeah not sure. Last time I pre-ordered was my s8 plus thru sprint best buy but it was for store pickup, not actual shipping and it was ready for pickup on the release date, not any sooner.
I wonder why VZW was allowed to ship over 2 weeks early. I cancelled my BB order because VZW told me I would not get the 480 for my S7 Edge if I bought from Best Buy. Best buy said I would but once a VZW order was received I pre ordered from VZW last Tuesday and I had the phone on Weds. It sucked that I missed out on the 150 off but I'd be flaming mad if I could not get my 480 bill credit. My bet is anyone who ordered from Best Buy will get their trade in as t says it right on the BB page. Make sure you take screen shots in case you have an issue later.

Yea. I have no idea why in-store pickup wasn't a choice this time around.
I received mine last Thursday or Friday, a week ahead of the official Sept. 15th launch. I purchased the unlocked version.
I pre-ordered mine on Saturday online from bb and was having second thoughts because Verizon had told me I was not going to get the 480 if I did my deal with bb. So I ordered it anyways and logged on to my Verizon the note 8 was on my account already and was able to do the promo with the trade in. 12.75 a month for a note 8 is one hell of a deal. And I got me email saying I'll get it on the 15. Hope sooner
I actually just got a email that mine has shipped. Got tracking info for UPS. Should be here in the next couple days. Excited!!!!

I ordered from BB. Received it on the 6th. I tried to trade in my s7 edge online, but the page was experiencing problems. I chatted online and they said I could go in store. So today, that's what I did. The rep said they couldn't give me the promotional price, that I would have to go to best buy, I asked him to ask a manager. Same thing. So, At BB, they tried logging in on the same page I did, same problem. The BB manager called the district manager for Verizon (their buddies) and she said, I Will receive the promotional trade in. She said they should've done it at the corporate store. I told her what they had told me, and she told me she would be there at that store at 630 tonight, and for me to come in and she will personally take care of it! She said we have 14 days from the purchase date to decide if we want to trade in. I will be going there in like 30 minutes. So, I will report back with my findings! Until then...

Unreal. They need to have a quick online "class" for all corporate Verizon employees so they know the deal. It's a deal struck between best buy and Verizon - this shouldn't be such a hassle for customers. Luckily, the dude at my corporate store already told me I could walk in and give it to them and they'd apply the discount.
All you should need to do is activate it then log into your carrier site. Once the system sees you have a Note 8, the discount should show when you go to the trade in section. At least that is how it worked on Verizon site. Before I activated my Note 8 it said my S7 Edge was worth 175. Once I activated the Note 8 and did their trade in it showed the 480 bill credit option. Just make sure you don't click you want cash. You'll only get the crappy value.
Got mine
I ordered online on the 9/6. I got it on 9/8. The only problem I had was I couldn't activate it because the SIM card number printed on the box was different than the one in the Note 8. After 2 calls to Verizon and 1 call to BB, I was finally able to activate after giving Verizon the correct SIM number. BB screwed up causing me to spend over an hour activating the Note 8. My advice is to check the SIM card in the Note 8 with what is printed on the box if you have problems activating. Otherwise, I'm enjoying the Note 8. But, I'll probably not uss BB again to buy a phone.
Ordered on 24th and received my unlocked Note 8 today.
Ok, Here's my report: The lady I was supposed to be meeting, had an emergency and couldn't show up. She called the store manager and told him what to do. Basically, all they have to do is go into your account and TRY! If the device was on your account, on the line that your note 8 is now on, it will work! If they say it won't, ask them to try anyways and see the trade in value. It will show the "normal" trade in value and underneath is a checkbox labeled - Promotion. Click and then they inspect the phone, blah, blah, blah. $306 for a note 8, 12.75 a month for 24 months.
A side note, the credit is actually $20 off a month for 24 months. I asked about paying off the balance for a future upgrade, he said he wasn't sure how that would work, but thinks you would have to pay the actual current balance and the $20 off a month would roll over to the next phone. However, he was unsure so take that with a grain of salt.

I ordered the N8 through BB and here is how it went:
9/5 - received text that my order has shipped
9/6 - received phone and text from VZW that my port was complete, called and tried to get phone activated but no go
9/7 - called to tried to get it activated again, got hung up on several times, they told me it wouldn't work until the 8th at noon
9/8 - noon came at went and no-go, called VZW, BB, Straight Talk and was told that it wasn't going to be live until 9/10, went to BB and VZW store and same thing except BB was very rude and unhelpful. Took to twitter @VZWSupport and @bestbuySupport and within 15 minutes my phone was working. Coincidence?
I love the phone. I installed Bk Disabler and removed the bloat. Tether is now working. I'm hoping someone has a way to disable knox and OTA.
Edit FOUND how to disable OTA in developer options.
Thanks.
Looks like my phone got delivered today. Can't wait to get home to check it out and get it activated. Will it come with a new SIM card or can I use the one from my s8+?

Unlocked has no sim card. Carrier supplied ones typically do.
Just take the SIM from your s8+ and toss it in the Note8. That's what I did.
Mine is unlocked and I'm on Verizon so after putting in the SIM the phone had to be rebooted and it sat at a funny looking "configuring" screen for about two minutes, then rebooted and it was ready for service immediately. There's no wifi calling option on unlocked but I'm not in a hurry to get it anyways. Not having all that Verizon crap is worth losing ho-hum features IMHO.
ofd now if ups would just get here. like watching grass grow...

And it's here!!! Ready to get it up and running
I pre ordered both items separately and both were confirmed for shipment on the 6th September for delivery on 7th September.
On 4th September I received an email stating that my watch was on route. I subsequently received a DPD email confirming delivery for the 5th and I opted to collect from the DPD depot via the button in the email message. The collection was confirmed and I received a further email stating that the watch was ready to collect. I made my way to the depot as agreed only to be told that they didn't have my watch and to contact Samsung. After being on hold for 90 minutes, the sales team claimed that they had suffered a systems glitch and that the email was sent out in error. I was then told to disregard that email and that the watch and the phone will both be shipped on the 6th for delivery on the 7th.
Last night, on the 6th, I called the sales team again to confirm that my orders had indeed shipped as scheduled. I was told that both had shipped and that I'll receive them on the 7th. I received an email from Samsung while I was on the phone to the sales team stating that the order will now arrive no later than the 20th. I mentioned that to them and was told to disregard that email.
Today, the 7th Sep, I received an email stating that DPD will be delivering my items. Once again I opted to collect from the depot. Another email arrived confirming that the items were ready to collect. I made my way to the depot once again. No items. They just said to contact Samsung as they had recalled both items to be sent back.
I have now been on the phone with Samsung for 90 minutes and have spoken to 3 different people who are insisting that my items shipped yesterday. They can't however answer the simple question of where my items currently are. I am now in a queue waiting to speak to a manager.
After being on hold for another 45 minutes the sales team manager confirms that according to his logistics system, the items are with DPD UK and so he has to contact Samsung logistics to figure out what is causing the confusion and subsequent delay.
I have been promised a call back on Monday between 2pm and 4pm for an update, with no delivery in sight.
This is absolutely ridiculous; 2 trips to DPD and over 4 hours on the phone as well as having pocketed £1300 of my cash since the middle of August.
Is anyone else in the UK experiencing this same problem?
F*** me mate I was suppose to get my phone the 27th shipped on the 26th. Didn't happen. Then keep getting mixed messages like they have no idea when I will get it Maybe 2 - 3 weeks. Then should be this week then I'll receive a message on the 6th that it's been shipped no email. Then it will be shipped on the 7th I'll get an email. Nothing. I've tried phoning but on hold for too long just getting pissed off.

Ok that explains a lot. It seems they've screwed up big time!
Unbelievable. I ordered the Galaxy Watch but opted for later delivery. Let's see what turns up
CPW don't honour their trade in deals and Sammy can't be trusted to manage their logistics. And this is 2018, at least 18 yesrs after the first smartphones started to appear from Palm, Nokia and Ericsson.
I'm still waiting for Samsung to collect my Note 8 (Samsung Upgrade Program) I have sent over 20 emails to them and also emailed the company tasked with sending out the return packaging, it's been over 2 weeks since it should have arrived, they are a joke and I'm right on the cusp of sending it back and keeping my Note 8!
Had some minor issues here. Pre-ordered the Watch a few days after the phone - it's only ever been listed on the Samsung order page as shipping on the 6th of September, for what that's worth. Received an email from DPD yesterday telling me that it would be delivered today, only for me to check the app later in the morning and find that the delivery date had been pushed to Monday. Was half expecting it after what happened with the phone, though.
Phone dispatched on the 23rd and initially received an email from DPD saying that it'd be delivered on the 24th. Waited for it then, only to find that it was delayed until the Tuesday the following week, in part thanks to a holiday elsewhere. It arrived on the 28th, but without the wireless charging pad that I'd ordered along with it. The fun started from there, as Samsung listed the pad as having been successfully delivered. After a number of calls, I'm not entirely sure, but it seems that it had never been transferred to DPD or dispatched, as Samsung look to have been out of stock when the rest of the order was dispatched. Waiting for a refund on that.
As far as I can tell any faults were with Samsung rather than DPD, though could do without repeated emails giving a delivery date that they can't actually meet.
What a nightmare. Samsung's customer service is like sh*t. It'd take them 4-6 weeks to ship out a little preorder gift. How lame! At least you are not alone.

When I had issues with Samsung I emailed this address
[email protected] and my issues were sorted within 2 days. That was for the note7 debacle but I got straight answer no bull. Check to see if address is still valid worth a shot
Thanks I have sent an email. Hopefully someone who gives a damn answers
Yes indeed it seems that there is an issue and I'm not the only one impacted. Samsung has been a let down this time around and if it weren't for the fact that I wanted a flagship dual sim device, I wouldn't bother with them. Let see if Apple announce one next week. Much as I loathe iOS devices at least their supply chain and customer services are reliable.
A few people I know have cancelled their pre orders for both the Note 9 and Galaxy watch and are buying either on eBay or from foreign markets directly.
The MD of Samsung UK should be ashamed of himself for offering such extremely poor service in one of their biggest markets. I am expecting delivery of a Samsung TV today, I'll reject it and get something else, at least in that area there is pretty decent competition.
I am really pissed off. I'll send an email to the exec team asap. I'll keep you all posted.
Ordered my Note 9 from Virgin mobile UK on 26/8/2018, delivered to me on 1/9/2018
I think this is to do with orders through Samsung so we get the dual SIM variant.
I phoned yesterday in the end to say haven't received a shipping email. They said it should still be delivered Monday or Tuesday but I believe it's just made up. Still received nothing also spoke with DPD to check deliveries pending at my address as I believe DPD are delivering. But again nothing. Haven't had a reply to that email I sent to trying g to phone them again but just stuck on hold .

I got both my Galaxy Watch's yesterday 07/09 46mm for me 42mm Rose Gold for the wife
She's trading in her fit Pro 2 and the return Envelope came yesterday morning
I'm also still waiting to find out where my galaxy watch I pre ordered is and been told they have contacted logistics and will get back to me. I had all the it's been shipped and it's at the depot. With my response of no it isn't one been there! Have now waited a whole 24 hours and no response. Absolute joke.
I had lots of.simiar emails and notification from.dpd and Samsung. In the end was delivered on time on the 7th
So much for shipped the 7th and delivery the 10th. Received no emails. I've had zero emails since I ordered 2 weeks 2days ago. I've phoned them today and couldn't tell me if I will even get it just they have passed it to higher up should hear about it soon. That's probably the 10th time they have said higher up will email me and I have had nothing. I was already told it should ship the 26th for delivery on the 27th. I think if it doesn't turn up tomorrow and I hear nothing back from that CEO email address someone posted I will cancel. Just I have spent about 100+ on accessories etc.
This is my phone were talking about.
---------- Post added at 08:28 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:33 PM ----------
Yeah had a phone call back from Samsung im not receiving it tomorrow even though was promised Friday and Saturday I was
Thanks for the update. I'm hoping to hear something from Samsung tomorrow. I also sent an email to the CEO email address.
Watch just arrived today, but there's no sign of the Wireless Charger Duo that was supposed to be grouped with it [going by the dispatch email.] Anyone else had the Watch show up without the charger?
That makes two failed wireless charger deliveries now.
I have just received an email from Samsung stating that my order for the Note 9 is complete and that it has been delivered. I don't have the phone and Samsung haven't returned my call since I was promised one on Saturday. Their online chat service is also offline so I guess I'll have to call them and be prepared to wait an hour or more.
I bought the watch outright and so will call my credit card company to raise a dispute and cancel the order. The phone was purchased on the Samsung upgrade program, I am currently on hold to the finance company to lodge a complaint and cancel the order.
At this stage, I am not sure I have any other options.
Update
Been on hold to the finance company for 45 minutes, no answer.
I also just realised that on the Samsung email which states that the order is complete, the shipping date is listed as 20th September 2018.
So, although they are saying that the phone has been delivered, which is not true, it seems that it will ship on the 20th September. :laugh:

In their photos its says 20th on the Samsung upgrade site
same here ... page not available after entering my upgrade loan number.
interestingly, you can pre-order and get upto £350 off the price of the s10 + when trading in an s9+, which i suspect is almost the same overall cost as going via the upgrade programme.
i'll check the upgrade page again tomorrow to see if it works, we've got 2 weeks to be eligible for the wireless buds.
in the meantime i've pre-ordered the s10e for my better half and got £200 trade in for her s7 edge
Same issue here. I type in my S9 agreement number, and it takes me through to a link that says Upgrade Here, but then loads 'upgrade lounge' page which comes up with page unavailable. Trying to contact Samsung on phone and live chat to see what's up
I've also messaged them this morning.

Upon checking with our Samsung Sales Team, they have advise me that the website in claiming your upgrade device is currently still not available and our respective department are doing there best to make it ready within the day until tomorrow. Don't worry, since you have receive the invitation you would be able to upgrade your mobile phone to the Samsung Galaxy S10."
I haven't actually received an email from them with an invitation in it, so not sure what they referring to. I received an email last week about Samsung Unpacked Event. In it, it said that yesterday I would receive an email with a link to upgrade to S10. I have not yet received that email or link.

Latest from the live chat -
"I apologise for the inconvenience. Upon checking within our system the invitation would start to be send after the unpacked event. To be eligible in receiving the invitation for the upgrade you would need to complete the 12 moth payment."
From what I can remember, I have made the deposit, and 11 payments. This means I am only eligible next month after next month's payment ? Guess I won't be getting the pre-order headset.....
same here - spoke to them and said they are having issue with the webpage and the tech team has been notified and is working on fixing it
this is my first year upgrading so not sure if thats normal but why send an email saying go and upgrade when the website is not even working?

I'm thinking the same will happen for me when the upgrade program pages are working again. I think I'll be able to upgrade (eligibility checker already says I am), but I won't get an automatic invitation to upgrade till next month
Suspect it's simply a matter of waiting for their system to get sorted.
Interestingly, I looked at purchasing an S10 'new' and there is an option there to use purchase it on 0% finance on Samsung Upgrade Programme, and it says it uses Close Brothers Retail Finance (which has been taken over by someone else). Didn't go through with the purchase, as I'm waiting to see what's going to happen with upgrade programme, but they'd give me £300 for my S9 against purchase of an S10.

Yes - but if you do that, you still have to pay another year for your S9 - remember you only paid 12 mo of 24mo
so what will happen is you will get 300 off s10, pay 499 but also still need to pay £27/mo for another year - or pay it all in lump sum if you want - believe is £370ish left
According to their live chat they think it should be up and running within 2hrs
I heard that to.
Looks like they're updating the page now. Wish they could start with the link

I ordered my this morning!
The price is good, but my primary worry is that this phone won't have factory images available or be safe to root even if the bootloader gets unlocked after a sim unlock.
I also wouldn't expect any ability to convert to an international firmware even if the modem portions are retained.

T-Mobile chat told me they aren't leaving the warehouse until Friday. I think he's wrong, as all other preorders deliver by launch date, but I haven't seen any movement yet.

I hope tmo sticks to tradition and sends them out tomorrow...
I even paid extra for expedited shipping. It will suck to watch people walk out of the store with them on Friday while I wait till the middle of next week...
First Pre orders should be shipping out Thursday and delivered Friday on launch day. Check your bank account. TMobile will charge your card once your phone is ready to ship out. My card was charged a few hrs ago and pre order was placed on the first day.

If you buy in store you'll have to pay an extra $20 on top for that bs assistance upgrade fee nonsense

When they ship it to you the IMEI for that phone is assigned to your account. They won't let you check out another device until you receive the first one. It's a hassle. I paid for next day
UPS shipping notification, delivery Friday. Excited about this McLaren addition.
I ordered mine on Tuesday evening via T-Mobile help on Twitter. Even transferred money into my account in case it charged early. My card was charged late on the 3rd and transaction was completed on the 4th. Hopefully I will get an update from UPS later today and so get the email update from T-Mobile with my imei. My order is a JOD upgrade. I got overnight shipping. I would have went into a store but I have to work 10-8 tomorrow do I can't get to a store.
I sure hope they ship them out tonight.
Edit: I just checked my UPS app and it is showing.

You're right, I would have just added it to another line on account and popped my sim in, returned to sender. Just put it on credit card.
Got next day also, receiving tomorrow according to ups app
Mine has an origin scan.

Mine says 10:45 am to 1:45 pm. Good thing my wife works from home. She's even going to work in the living room so she can see the driver when he/she comes up on the porch. 99.9% of the time, they arrive sometime closer to 6 or 7 or later.
My daughter's iPhone on Halloween last year was supposed to arrive by 1:30, it got delivered at almost 9pm. I'm not paying $8 for the 2 hour delivery window, that from everything I have read and heard, also gets missed.
Once it arrives, I will be impatiently waiting for time to clock out and get home.
I really, really want this phone but the high chance of not being able to flash the international firmware is why I'm not going to do it.
I love my TMo to International OP7 Pro
