Ok I have a question about getting a loan. Is it possible to get a $5000 loan if I have over $1000 as a down payment. I don't have a cosigner that's 21+. Everywhere I go it seems like you need a cosigner 21+. I work also make about $950 a month after taxes. I'm also in college with loans. Any help would be nice and I've tried Google answers were 2+ years old.

I got a defective unit tuesday the 17. I called on hold for an hour. They sent me an email stating
Hi Tchalla,
"Thank you for contacting Google. It was a pleasure getting to speak with
you today. As promised, I've forwarded your case to a specialist to begin
working to resolve your issue as soon as possible.
In the meantime, if you come across any other information that you'd like
to pass along, please feel free to reply to this email. Your responses
will automatically go to the specialist working on your case.
Thanks again for your patience and understanding.
Regards,
Will
The Google Play Team"
still no response back. I wasn't expecting them to ship a replacement right away. They could have at least given me a time frame as to when they could. I will never buy from play store again. All you google fan boys or employee on here. Its not unreasonable to except communication from a retailer when dealing with defective items sold.
still no reply
Everyone agrees that it sucks to get defective products. But that doesn't make xda your personal complaints department. Don't start threads just to whine.
I think you're being a bit too sensitive on the issue...more than half of people that pre-ordered still haven't even received them. They're absolutely not going to replace yours before others get theirs. I understand you want more communication, but you've been given a written record (email) that they've taken your case and will help you with it. Now it's the weekend...so wait until Monday and see what happens.
I think there's a huge problem with this generation when dealing with patience. I'm sure Google will do whatever is required to satisfy you. Every problem I've had with them in the past they've gone completely out of their way to fix.
That reply is normal

I would disagree. As stated not looking to get it replaced before others receive their fist unit just wanted a timeline as to when this would be. They have not met the timeline they stated to me.
That does suck but its only been two or three business days. I don't think that's unreasonable and I'm betting they will make good on it. I think that for future purchases you may want to consider a local retailer to avoid having to wait for an online retailer, just based on my past experiences and what it seems like is important to you.
Most retailers are very lenient on returns and exchanges within the first fourteen days. However I think Google is more likely to replace the device immediately than some brick and mortar stores. They both have pros and cons but I've always had good luck with third party retailers gong above and beyond to keep a customer happy.
I hope things work out good for you in the end, and I'm pretty sure they will. Most likely they're well aware of your issue and they might already be looking into it, I wouldnt speculate that just because you haven't heard from them that they're ignoring you.

Ok I got my nexus 7 early Friday morning as soon as I turned it on I notice that the upper left hand corner was faded or has light bleed. Ok I played around with it for a while. I have no other issues with this device. I called Google customer support and told the nice representative that my device had screen issues and I want a replacement she said ok but I won't be able to receive a replacement on a 16gb for at least 2 weeks. So I said ok, she then emailed ten minutes later confirming my request. But then this morning I see the full charge of the nexus 7 and shipping back on my bank card and its still there up till now, so I'm confused. Haven't heard anything back from Google either. Anyone know what's going on here?

I purchased 2 Nexus 7's, one for myself and one for my father. My father's tablet has screen separation and he is afraid to exchange it. My tablet had a chipped bezel. I exchanged the tablet for a string of 6 defective Nexus 7's all with light bleed and dead pixels. Today, I called to process my RMA and the supervisor Cameron, told me that they will not process any more RMAs on my account and to please mail back my units.
I just want to inform anybody who is in the RMA process that Google will pull this move on you. I have been nothing but courteous to the reps, I have been patient with the RMA process and Google has written me off as a customer. I am sure some people are satisfied with their Nexus 7's, however that is not the point of my post. It is to inform potential customers of the systemic quality issues plaguing this product and Google's unwillingness to rectify the issue.

Good to know, but as long as they offer a full refund I see no problem with this.
I gave up on replacements and asked for a refund after my third unit, so don't mistake my tone. It just seems like a reasonable way to cut their losses.

That really sucks. You were trying their product, and you obviously liked it and wanted a good one.
Google is really pushing away some of us customers with this fiasco.
I think it's amazing you got 7 different nexuses (nexi?) with no questions asked. Perhaps they think you are too hard too please so they are giving up. Some people get multiple devices and are content with them because they have no issues, you got 7 and saw issues with all of them. Luck of the draw I guess. The odds are crazy that you got that many messed up ones. How many other companies would easily do 7 replacements.

Well, and this is not a rant. I was very patient and offered them options such as running a quality assurance on a tablet prior to shipping or even repairing any of my tablets by replacing the LCD. They continuously told me that they'd contact me and never did and even getting RMAs was difficult as near the end they kept "Misplacing my CSSN". They really have been playing games and I was a huge fan of Google. Disappointing.
I knew this OP looked familiar. This is the same person that trashed Google when he didn't get his N7 pre order on launch day. It is also the same person that told others to refuse their shipments and called Google demanding a free case and free shipping because he didn't get his N7 fast enough. Now he claims he got 7 defective N7's.

Good memory! I ended up accepting the tablets because one was a gift for my father and they were sold out everywhere and it's difficult to take a gift back after it's been promised. However, while it's clever that you're trying to attack my character and mitigate my experience, each instance is unrelated, though caused by the same issue, which is Google's treatment of their customers.
I'm surprised this is the first time I've heard this. But I think Google is being completely reasonable by cutting off people with excessive RMAs. Obviously after 6 or 7 returns on a device they aren't making money off of already, they are deep in the hole with you as a customer and will never make it back on whatever apps and content you might have purchased.
I agree it sucks that the device isn't perfect. But 6 RMA in a month, too much. Maybe after the 2nd or 3rd RMA you should have stopped, lived with the raised glass or whatever, and given ASUS more time to address their manufacturing process, then try another RMA later. That is what I'm doing anyway, I had my 2 RMAs in July, still not completely happy, but it's usable and I'm just patiently waiting for things to get better (sounds like we are almost there).

Imagine if he cashed in on all 7 google play 25$ GC, thats 175!
I'd have cut you off at three. I think most people who have experiences running or managing businesses would say the same. At some point, you have to cut the losses. i cant see why youre surprised, youre lucky as hell to have gotten 7 without being billed for google's time and effort in my opinion. But with googles resources i can understand them being so generous.
Just lou said nothing about it being related, he was just pointing out the kind of attitude and the outlook you so often have. He only stated the facts in his post and wasn't just throwing around rumors or opinions.
I'm really sorry that you got a defective Nexus 7. I understand you being upset with google about a defective product. But it makes no sense that you've had a company send you 7 devices, not charge you anything extra, and offer you a full refund when you still weren't happy, and you have a snotty attitude. It just screams of entitlement.
You're entitled to use your own money and go buy another device, or use a typewriter. Entitled to a dozen devices, and google paying for all of the labor it takes to send you those, do the paperwork, legwork, shipping, and any other costs, just because you aren't happy with the first one or a full refund, in my opinion you certainly are not.
I think in the case of 7 accepted RMA's, it should be the shareholders getting onto google, not you complaining about them.
There are plenty of people on the XDA who have exchanged several, five or more Nexus 7's for similar reasons. I don't think it's that surprising that bum products are exchanged. But you're entitled to your opinions.

Although demanding a free case as reparations is a bit silly, I cancelled my pre-order on what turned out to be the final day the Play store was accepting cancellations. Since that allowed me to pick one up on Friday the 13th, the week before anyone in America received their Google Play pre-order, I was very lucky to have been able to cancel. I also saved $20 -- more than shipping -- because I got it discounted from Sam's.
If I had been told that it was too late to cancel, then forced to wait a week and charged $20 extra, I would have been angry too. I probably wouldn't have done anything about it, unlike the OP, but according to you my complaining about it here would have gone some way towards discrediting me and my experience with faulty units. You would think I was just lashing out.
His and my experiences aren't so different. I received three units with screen lift, and before each replacement I called and talked to Google about what amount of screen lift was considered normal. Both times I was advised to exchange. The reason I asked for a refund on my third unit was that I don't need the tablet so badly that I cannot wait for a hardware revision, and this fault could potentially worsen over time. Three in a row and it seemed illogical to try again, so now I'm waiting it out.
The only differences between Anakin's experience and my own are that I called to cancel my pre-order a day or two earlier, and I stopped at three.
Do you think that I'm lying as well?
I can certainly understand Nexus 7 deciding to shut you down after 7 RMA's. Settle up and part ways. You may not like it, but Google has already spent a lot of money sending tablets via UPS/Fedex back and forth in an effort to please you. They have decided that they cannot. Well within their rights to do so, Google is a private business and can choose not to do business with anyone for any reason so long as that reason is not discrimination against a protected class. Put yourself in Google's shoes. If you sent a person 7 brand new in box units and that person found a reason to reject every one of them, what do you think the odds are that the customer will accept the 8th?
I just wanted to make sure I didn't convey the wrong message. I applaud google for replacing the units like they do. But after 7 RMA's, I don't at all blame them for cutting him off, I think it's very reasonable.
pxlitup, I'm familiar with your posts. You post with intelligence and offer up a lot of valuable information, so please don't think I'm lumping any users together.
True. 7 Nexus is excessive. I'm not saying Google has the best CS in the world but try rma-ing 7 times with any other company I bet you most would have giving up on the OP by the 3rd unit.

Asus has nothing to do with it. When you buy through Google, they handle exchanges. But, you already bought through the Play Store and are posting your opinion which is based on your personal experience, I'm sure.

I bought mine through the play store.. It had screen lift and quite a creak.
The creak I fixed with a 2"x1/4" piece of paper, and the screen lift I fixed with a hardcover copy of the OED and about two days of patience.. ALL of this I did without voiding my warranty or wasting an RMA ticket.
After 7RMA's, you need to take the refund and either wait until they hammer out the manufacturing process, or just buy something else. The fact that you feel ASUS/Google is actually in the wrong for cutting you off after your sixth RMA speaks fathoms about you. #JustSaying
I have a retailer business here in Singapore. We sell mobile phone accessories along with our retails of the latest mobile phones. The Peterson Group was introduced to me by a friend of mine when my distributor failed to meet my needs. At first, it was a good deal. They have the latest model of almost all accessories in the market. They showed us samples and made great deals for us. Since we are new partners, they even threw some free accessories in the package as well.
They have nice staff, very accommodating. My business clicked and many people came to us since the products that we have are fresh from the market and we are on the lead compared to our competitors. While their product is still being shipped, ours are already nearly out of stock. I was even dreaming of expanding our business, renting stalls in big malls or even bring my business to Jakarta, Indonesia where my wife’s family resides. However though, the reality became a nightmare when about 3 months after I signed contract with The Peterson Group, the complaints on our products’ defect came frequently. We dealt with angry and frustrated customers. We know this is normal in this kind of business and we dealt each complaint with patience.
There were times that I was even the one who defended TPG and thought that maybe some of the customers break their chargers in purpose to get a refund. When one customer threatened to sue of having fraud products, it is when I became alarmed. The test and sample products seemed to be working but why is it that the deliveries are not working when they should be? I tried contacting TPG about this. After hundreds of connecting calls to so many people and telling my story a few thousand more, I was finally promised that they would conduct an investigation on this. I decided to give them a chance to redeem themselves. After two weeks, no one came and when I called, I get connected to voicemail and no one called me back. I now know that I have been deceived. I don’t want others to lose thousands of dollars like me. I am now working with my attorney on legal actions that I can take against them.
.
You have to sue them, dude. It is against the law to sell defected products.
Reply to The Peterson Group Fraud Company Failed Promises
Heard of this issue a year ago but wasn’t sure the details behind it.
Every business has its own flaws. It may be that they just made a huge miscalculation at that time.
How do these scammers even get away from bad things they do? As I know it, The Peterson Group is one of the leading wholesalers of mobile accessories in Asia. Is this account true?
Is The Peterson Group still operating until now? How far will they be able to fool everyone?
There are a lot of fraud people especially in these kinds of business. With a lot of available products around offering the same brand, you would not know which one is legit.
I don’t think The Peterson Group can do this kind of thing. I have been with them for a few years now and nothing like this happened.
Same issue for me.
Same issue for me. But I wasn’t able to realize it before hand since the communication was constant. First, they were not able to deliver my products on time which caused me precious business time and kept me from reaching my monthly goal quota. The representative I talked to said that they were having big update on their shipping lines which halted some of their operations but I was promised that they are to deliver in one week’s time. I relented. They delivered after a week and a day. I let it pass. One time, when my staff was showing the functionality of one of the accessories to a potential customer, it suddenly burst into flames. The shame that I have felt in front of that shocked customer was really to the core. It also caused us a lot of money and I even suspended my staff, thinking that he has demonstrated wrong while we do the investigations. Our electrics engineer checked and it showed that there are defects on the product itself. We also checked the other deliveries and it confirmed that the products have been created from different parts of dismantled brands. I immediately contacted The Peterson Group regarding this. To make the matters worse, complaints started pouring out as well from emails, calls and personal means. I decided to end it when they weren’t able to give me anymore excuses. I am now with a different distributor.
I am actually wondering how they get away with it? They even hire people around to get involved. I hear they are a big company. How do they manage to fool even the government?
I made an order on the 26/6 where it said that stock was available, a DHL order was created on the 27/7 that stayed on Shipping information received. Contacted DHL after a few days to see where my order was and they said it was never picked up.
Contacted OnePlus Live support, where i found out they did not have stock that's why they did not proceed and was told to wait 48 hours. I did.
After 48 hours my order was still not moving, contacted them again, opened a ticket and been trying to find out where my order is, finally they said that the order was lost and after 1 week of live support and support tickets they tried to resend me the order.
After 3 days that the new order stayed in pending and avoiding my question on "when will the new order be shipped" i opened a ticket in paypal asking for my money back.
It only took them 24h to hold the new order and asking me to close the dispute and as they put it "The system will automatically unhold the order upon ending PayPal dispute. Then the order will be shipped out based on the ETD (estimated time of arrival) you saw when you placed this order."
Thanks but not thanks, after i read https://www.reddit.com/r/oneplus/comments/4twljv/oneplus_three_package_has_arrive_but_without_the/ I will never trust OnePlus again.
#NEVERTRUST rather than #NeverSettle.
I post this here, maybe it will manage to save someone the time and money from dealing with OnePlus and their support deparment.
So why instead of going through all of this misery, didn't you just buy one on Swappa??? There are brand new, never used or opened, as well as lightly used, tested phones, often for the same or less money than ordering one.
I just bought one there; in fact, I have bought my last four phones there -- not a single problem with any of them. Very easy and trouble free way to get a new phone.
Wow I was thinking of buying this phone and canceling the Axon 7 since everyone says this has better performance, but after that story no thank you and the other one who essentially got robbed no thanks. Loving ZTE.
some people unfortunately have some bad luck and bad experiences, just b/c this happened to him does not mean it will happen to you, some people just dont have things go right for them, i don't think u should not get the phone off of his bad luck, that is just the way life works, somethings works for people and somethings don't, i had a great experience, i work for at&t mobility and i encounter people who do have such bad luck and we can't do anything for b/c of certain circumstances and yet for some others we can work wonders for. I think it just so crazy how life is on how somethings work out for some people and somethings just go so wrong for people. You just gotta find out what works great for u
it's strange that it was marked as "in stock" because I ordered mine on June 21th (shipping to France) and before I paid it was clearly marked that estimated shipping date was for June 30th, so 9th day later, plus 7 days for DHL shipping.
Anyway I had to go in another country for 2 weeks and sent it to my parents home.
In the end they sent it on June 27th, so 3 days ahead of estimated shipping date and DHL was long as it was told.
On your invoice, what is the "estimated dispatch date"? their stock may differ by continent but for Europe stock was already low.
Anyway you don't need to warn European buyers as it's not possible to order op3 for most European countries, until end of September I think.
This could have been the 2nd OnePlus 3 i ordered from them. The 1st one came within 3 days when they first announced it. Everything went just fine and i was pretty pleased with the phone itself.
In this case i had to go through the process with their so-called "Customer Support", which is one of worse situations I've ever been through and person after person I've talked to in order to solve this was giving me the same answer "Wait 24/48 hours more". This was going more than a week.
@Le_Zouave It said in stock that's why i continued from them and not from any other website, better of getting the product from the source - i guess. Plus, In the ticket when finally the decided that my order was not send, i asked if it would be send "NOW" proceed, if not refund me 'PLEASE', they continued with the 2nd order which stayed pending for 3 days.
@zulu657 I would have bought it from any other website that supported shipping to Cyprus - my country, but since it showed "in stock" and i my previous device came within 3 days i thought "why not".
Point here is, If everything goes as it should then you might get the products you ordered, IF anything goes wrong and you have to solve it with their Support center, then i feel bad for you.

Nah man, already bought 3 phones from this company and they're pretty chill
Mine was fine. Enough said. Scare tactics. Are you paid by a competitor?
Also got mine within 3 days. I was really surprised at how fast it was delivered. On the other hand I have been waiting for a delivery from America (I'm in Austria) for nearly a month. Sometimes the packages get held in customs and can stay there for weeks. Either way a bit of patience if all you need. No point getting all worked up over something so petty. First world problems, am I right? Lol
But still...
This phone is a beast...
Nevermind the cs. All cs are almost the same they are like robots programmed to say what they are about to say.
To answer all,
@GeneralDisaray2 not paid by anyone. Just sharing my 2nd OP3 experience with all of you.
@camdadeye291 First OP3 i ordered as soon as it got announced came in 3 days, was as surprised as you. But as soon as i had to contact their support center for my 2nd order to solve my issue it all went to hell. Plus i would not call losing 500€ a 'first world problem'.
@marc_ecko28 The phone itself is one of the best i ever owned, that's why i ordered this 2nd one along with more cases.

Like I said a bit of patience is all that is needed, I'm sure it will be resolved. Still a first world problem.
For me all went smooth, even came earlier than estimated time, shipped to Croatia and in ten days after placed order I got it. No problems or anything whatsoever.
i bought total of 3 oneplus.3 never had issue. one phonr was even in my hands 2 days after payment which is insane

I made an order on the 26/6 where it said that stock was available, a DHL order was created on the 27/7 that stayed on Shipping information received. Contacted DHL after a few days to see where my order was and they said it was never picked up.
Contacted OnePlus Live support, where i found out they did not have stock that's why they did not proceed and was told to wait 48 hours. I did.
After 48 hours my order was still not moving, contacted them again, opened a ticket and been trying to find out where my order is, finally they said that the order was lost and after 1 week of live support and support tickets they tried to resend me the order.
After 3 days that the new order stayed in pending and avoiding my question on "when will the new order be shipped" i opened a ticket in paypal asking for my money back.
It only took them 24h to hold the new order and asking me to close the dispute and as they put it "The system will automatically unhold the order upon ending PayPal dispute. Then the order will be shipped out based on the ETD (estimated time of arrival) you saw when you placed this order."
Thanks but not thanks, after i read https://www.reddit.com/r/oneplus/comments/4twljv/oneplus_three_package_has_arrive_but_without_the/ I will never trust OnePlus again.
#NEVERTRUST rather than #NeverSettle.
I post this here, maybe it will manage to save someone the time and money from dealing with OnePlus and their support deparment.

At first, my phone took longer than stated but I didn't logon to XDA and write a negative review about the situation. Nothing is guaranteed in life except taxes and death! Stuff you order on Amazon Prime - not guaranteed to get to you the next day. The game you purchased from GameStop or Best Buy - not guaranteed to get to you by the stated time and date. The phone you bought from OnePlus - not guaranteed to get to you by the date and time given. I think you missed the part where OnePlus halted sales of the OnePlus 3 due them not being able to meet demand - due to the devices popularity? Guys, please don't be phased by this account of "bad luck". What happened to this guys is not guaranteed to happen to you.

The phone did not take longer, it never came since the 26/7. Actually, it was never packed but they just created a DHL ticket for pickup and that's it. I did not post this to inform people about OnePlus' lack of stock, but to share my experience with their Support deparment.
I had delays with products that i ordered from the Internet, but as soon as i contacted the company they handled it, like any company that respects their customers would. OnePlus support did not.
What i saw from their support department is keep the customer waiting. At least that what they showed me. It was not with 1 guy of their support, but with most of them, only 2 guys that i spoke with in live support actually came clear and i respect that.
The order was made before OnePlus came out in public and halt the sales, but that again plays no role as again I'm saying that my issue is not with their lack of stock, but with their lack of support and respect for their customers.
Was it bad luck? Yes. Will this happen to anyone else? Hope not. But in the case it happens and you need to contact their customer support, I feel bad for you.

Nope. I opened a case with Paypal for a refund 4 days ago.
I still wouldn't go as far as to say that this is appalling service. It's just a classic case of bad luck. Not every company has made their millions abiding by the book. If companies didn't make mistakes, they'd definitely be something wrong.
