[Q] For those that bought N6 on Black Friday weekend. - Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Did anyone get their codes for the $50 Play Store credit? I purchased mine from Sprint and I'm still waiting for the txt msg w/ code.

Got my order in the following Monday and nothing as of yet. Probably when the phone ships.

How long did u wait?

I got mine this past Friday, the 5th.
I believe to get the code, you have to open the email titled "Welcome to your new Nexus 6" from Google Nexus, and click the link taking you to the Play Store. It's what I did, and when I did it on my mother's phone, she got her code the next day. Don't know if it's coincidence, but it's worth trying.

Did anyone get their Sprint phone from elsewhere and still get the credit? I bought mine at BestBuy cyber Monday and haven't gotten an email. Am I hosed since I didn't buy direct from Sprint? Lol

Pretty sure I saw it in the terms and conditions that it will be emailed once it ships.

For Sprint you get a txt msg with the redeem code. Just got it a couple days ago!

I received an email from last night from Google. The code for my $50 credit is in it.

Who pre-ordered but bought elsewhere?

Just out of curiosity - Who out of us pre-ordered from Google Play and ended up purchasing elsewhere?
I pre ordered on the 27th but ran out a couple hours ago and grabbed the last one that Abt Electronics had in stock. Gonna either return this one or sell it to my friend when my other one gets here. This thing is pretty badass.

Yep. I called in before I got there and they had 12 left. By the time I got there they were down to 7. They sold out of those 7 from online orders during the 3 minutes I was playing with the floor model. I made a small stink with the manager and made him sell me one of the 7.

I expected myself to have more patience lol. As soon as I saw that everyone was going to Sam's club I couldn't resist anymore.
Anyway I hope Google learns something from this. They pissed off a lot of loyal customers by just not giving out an official release date.. They should know we can't handle that ****

I pre-ordered, but got one from gamestop. One of the employees reserved one, but couldn't afford it when it game. I ended up buying his.
But a question:
When my pre-order device comes, I should just take it back to the ups/fedex and say I'm refusing delivery? Do I need to get a Return authorization # from google?

I called Google today about this. I was told the usual story about how it was too late to cancel, but was advised to simply refuse delivery. I'm under the impression that as long as you make sure the UPS driver is not allowed to leave the package at your location, you will be refunded in full. If you cannot properly refuse delivery, bringing it to a UPS facility within 5 business days (with the box unaltered) should also net a full refund.
The bottom line being: don't open the package. don't wait too long to return it if you couldn't refuse delivery.
I bought one from my local sam's club.. I had pre-ordered one from google on July 3rd.. but nothing seems to be moving.
If/when it comes, I'll offer it to my dad if he likes it. If not, I'll either sell it or send it back to google.

Everything's kinda held up right now. If I understand the dates others have been throwing around correctly, your phone probably won't ship until AFTER Tuesday.
I ordered a custom x Saturday night at 9pm and it was at my door today before lunch.

I ordered mine Friday night at 10pm. Got it today. Funny thing is that I knew it was coming before the cs reps did... I called fed ex, told them that I had something shipped to me but didn't receive tracking. Gave them my address and that it was express, sure enough, it was in transit and scheduled for delivery 9/24... Checked the moto site and it still said that it hadn't shipped. I got my tracking in the email about an hour after I picked it up.
BTW. I freaking love this phone! It was everything I hoped for. And the cement back, blue accents and black front is gorgeous!
Edit*** didn't see the t mobile part. Mine was a custom from moto maker, so take my shipping experience at face value.

Sign up for Fed Ex's free delivery tracker on their site - it's your best way of finding out if the device has actually shipped to you. Moto has this bad habit of not letting people know they've shipped things.
How do you track something without a tracking number?
Ordered Saturday night, arrived at my door Tuesday afternoon.
Tmobile version?

I think I signed up for the correct thing with FedEx. However, I ordered Sunday, its Wed., and I have not had any delivery or email confirming shipment. When I login to the Moto X site, it still shows as "not shipped". Seems much slower compared to everyone else...
I did motomaker, so AT&T. Strangely, it still says "Not Shipped" on Motorola's website but I received it in the mail yesterday.

Yea, every blog and forum it was mentioned at, has replies today, that the codes no longer work. Glad I got in.
I was wondering if perhaps the rumors of a new Moto 360 were fueling the temporary deal?

Maybe LG offered T-Mobile a discount on a shipment of the "R".

I was stupid last night and waited because I called AT&T and they told me I could use my 25% off discount for it in the store. I go to the store today and they are like sorry that's not covered as an eligible item. I am going to hassle them until I get the discounted price now.

25% off 300 is only 75, which is not as good at the T-Mobile deal was. Just doing the math, you had no reason to let AT&T cause you to pause.

yea I was looking at no shipping and getting it that morning in the store.
I received a confirmation e-mail from T-Mobile today. And they said they have charged me for the order. It should arrive in less than a week Of course, the Thanksgiving Holiday may delay that a little bit.
Amazing to catch such a deal so shortly after its release here in the USA.

Tmobile online now taking orders

Go to tmobile website and put gear vr in search box and click on gear vr option and order it for 99.99. They did not even advertise that it was available for order. I just ordered mine. I'm thinking first come first serve hopefully, it's sold out everywhere else and tmobile told everyone that they wasn't taking orders till November 27 so order asap.

Awesome. My order does not even say "shipped" from T-Mobile...it just says "Being Processed" which makes me a little concerned that maybe they got a ton of orders and I won't be getting one any time soon. We'll see.
Did you pick regular shipping, or did you pay for next day shipping? I picked the free 2-4 day shipping.
I noticed that the Gear VR is now listed as out of stock the T-Mobile's website.

I picked next day overnight because the lady offered it for free, so why not? LOL.
Then, the next day (sat) I made a follow up, and for the inconvenience, they gave me a $30. credit!
On top of that, I complained to Best Buy last week because when I went to the store to get more information on the unit, none of the Samsung reps knew anything about it, or would make any effort to look into it in the computer. 3 different reps gave me 3 different "possible" dates.... I say "Possible" because they didn't want to bother looking at the computer. All I wanted to do was place an order in store if possible because I prefer to have my CC scanned in person and not have the number sent off to cyberspace.... all they had to do was take my money and they didn't want to, so I said screw it and called corporate and complained (took 5 minutes) and they sent me a $25. gift card LOL. So, essentially this thing will cost me about $45. in the end.
Mine is still being processed as well, now it's back available for ordering when it said out of stock last night...this tells me there system is screwing up so we may not have anything shipping anytime soon ...chatting now with tmobile specialist...will fill u guys in

Thanks for doing some leg work and looking in to this. I keep hoping for an email with a tracking number, but still nothing.
I did online chat with T-Mobile earlier today, and they assured me I should have it in 24-48 hours, but I am still feeling skeptical. When I look at T-Mobile's website it is still showing as out of stock for me.

Nope...still no shipping notification. The online chat people are useless too. They just keep telling me I should receive it by the end of the week (i.e 2-4 business days)...but since I ordered it on Saturday, you would think it would have shipped yesterday. That leads me to believe T-Mobile F'd this one up.
Wish I did one day shipping now...maybe it would have helped...but Samsung USA online store said they will be shipping back orders on 30th...I have one with them too...so if both come I will sell one for double on eBay

Just got off the phone with T-Mobile. They sadly just confirmed that it is backordered with no anticipated ship date. What a crock.
The girl said they can get shipments on Tuesdays and Thursdays, but that really doesn't help at all.
What a bunch of BS.

Gear VR Promo Question

Has anybody gotten anything back (confirmation/Gear VR) on the Gear VR Promo yet? I registered for mine as soon as I got my phone but have not seen anything back yet. So i was wondering if anybody else has.
Interesting. I ordered my unit from a retailer in Australia (JB Hi-Fi) and missed the parcel. I'm not sure if mine is going to be shipped with the phone or I have to go through the same process to get it. Going to pick up tomorrow (in 12hrs?) Will try to keep updated
Negative, I filled it out first thing when it opened up. I'm on T-Mobile and haven't heard back about the Netflix promo code either.

i've submitted 2 different emails for 2 different accounts (home and business)....showing under review for both for the past 3 days.
I think theres two entries per submission because one is for Netflix and the other is the Gear VR
Still waiting for approval. I uploaded my lease agreement. Is that count as a receipt?
I pre ordered mine and received it in Parcel with the S7 Edge. Virgin Mobile/Optus, Australia
Had an email this morning with the bundle I found and how to claim it. I'm with sprint.
D
Mine came with the phone direct from Samsung at the same time in the UK
no Evernote or Dropbox promo with the S7?
It will be in review for 2 to 3 weeks. They wait until the buyers remorse period has passed.
What does fulfillment pending mean?

@Naemion Not sure but that is what mine was updated to also... i would assume that they are sending them out now?
mine also recently changed to pending. fingers (eyes?) crossed!
Everyone's changed to pending. It doesn't mean anything. People who submitted last night got the same message. They aren't sending it out until after the return period has passed for the pre-ordered phones.

Mine changed to fulfilment pending like 2 days ago now it's BACK to under review.
