Backorder Thread (Nov 20th and onwards)

[squadz]

Let's keep this thread only for people who have received a back order e-mail, but nothing else.

Since everyone that was in limbo got their shipments today (Nov 20), we're still waiting on ours. Any updates, post here.

Re: Community members still on Nexus 4 Back order as of 11/20

I got a back order on 11/15. And got my item shipped this morning. Here are my details. You can use the below format:

Date/Time : 11/13/2012 - 11:38 am EST.
Confirmation : 11/13/2012 - 12:15 pm EST.
Bank charges : Pending till 11/15/2012. Then dropped.
Ordered Items : Nexus 4 16GB 1 Bumper.
Back order email : Twice. 11/15/2012 and 11/19/2012 (After speaking to a CSR)
Limbo status : Level-2 (limbo till 11/20 12.00 am)
Shipping status : Shipped 11/20 2:00 am.
Delivered : Yes, 11 am 11/20.

* was very upset with no communication and tried cancelling the order yesterday, but CSR told me that he would expedite the process and i think it did help, as i couldn't cancel the order *

Already tried, they know nothing. We actually know more than they do.

As for me, the only communication I received was the Backorder notice last Friday. I ordered at 9:30pm EST so I probably have a long wait ahead of me

Date/Time : 11/13/2012 - 9:30 pm EST.
Confirmation : 11/13/2012 - 9:45 pm EST.
Bank charges : Pending
Ordered Items : Nexus 4 8GB
Back order email : Once 11/15/2012

I know the phone calls to the CSRs are pretty much worthless so take this with one huge grain of salt:

Called an hour ago, I have two orders and one backorder email. My google wallet says they went through at 16:54 UTC but the CSR said it looked like 12:30 PST on their end. Anyway, I asked if she had a better idea of when us backordered folk would be getting shipping confirmation and she said "throughout the week". She stated that "tracking numbers have been filtering through all day yesterday and today and some have been going out to people who received the backorder email as well as those who did not." This was CSR Laurice in case anyone cares.

I'm not holding my breath, but if it's true perhaps we'll start seeing some good news trickle in from people in our level of limbo to confirm. Fingers crossed.

Got backorder email on the 15th. Haven't heard anything back since

I'm just going to go over here to the corner and curl up with my own pumpkin pie while I wait.

So I signed up on here just for news about this phone haha I feel like I'm the only one who ordered the phone way past the first 30 mins of the release. I ordered mine at 2:54pm central time >_< I got a confirmation email and then a backorder email a couple days after. I got so excited last night when I was reading about people finally getting emails about shipping and being delivered on the 20th (my birthday!). But alas, I suppose since I did not order mine until hours after the release I will probably not be receiving it anytime soon? I just wish more specific information was given other than "within 3 weeks." That's such a big time frame... *impatient*

I didn't say anything about getting actual information out of them. I just want someone to take it out on.

Hope this is true. Although I have a gut feeling we're going to be waiting a lot longer than this week...

That's my gut feeling too. I hope I'm wrong.

Re: Community members still on Nexus 4 Back order as of 11/20

got this email an hour ago (apparently it's a email going out to other backorders too)

Hello Mike,

I appreciate your patience with me. I was experiencing a little difficulty on today.

If you ordered on 11/13, your order is scheduled to arrive tomorrow. If you haven't already received a shipping confirmation email that contains the tracking number, you should receive one by end of day today.

However, please note that it can take up to 1 business day for the tracking number to be activated. Rest assured that once you receive your ship confirmation email with your tracking number, it is in the process of shipping for an estimated arrival of Tuesday, Nov. 20.

Thanks,

UPS hasn't come to my complex yet today. Vacation time at home maybe worked out perfectly. Hopefully I see mine today or tomorrow!

Here's what I got earlier today in response to my email on 11/16:

Hello Stephen,

Thank you for contacting Google Play Support. If you ordered on 11/13 and you did not receive a backorder notification email, your order is scheduled to arrive tomorrow. If you haven't already received a shipping confirmation email that contains the tracking number, you should receive one by end of day today. However, please note that it can take up to 1 business day for the tracking number to be activated. Rest assured that once you receive your ship confirmation email with your tracking number, it is in the process of shipping for an estimated arrival of Tuesday, Nov. 20.


Thanks,

Of course my email clearly stated that I did receive the backorder email, but I guess this is a canned response.

Here's where I am:

• Ordered 16gb at 1:06p EST, received email confirmation
• Got backorder email 11/15
• Play order history shows "Shipping estimate: November 15, 2012", order last updated 11/19
• Wallet shows pending order
• No pending CC charges

Rofl... i just opened a thread... Can you ask any mod if you know anyone to close the other thread?

Received my Backorder notice on 11/15, no changes since. Luckily I have a lumia 920 to tide me over in the meantime. I just wish I had more patience lol

Nope, I know no one, haha. I'm sure they'll merge it soon.
