Does anyone with UPS MyChoice have a tracking #, yet their Play Store says est. ship date Nov. 15?

Did anyone with two orders get the backorder e-mail more than once?

Why can't you? its free
I moved to this apartment 2-3 months ago and when it pulls the security questions to confirm "My" identity, it's people/streets I don't know. Must be someone else with my name or something.

Yes, I got it about an hour after I signed up. They sent an email about 10 mintues after I signed up telling me my account was made. Then about an hour later the email I posted came through. That was from UPS My Choice.

Does UPS mychoice send an email notification? or did you find the info on UPS website?

I would sign up for UPS My Choice. If you don't get an email with a tracking number within an hour or two (I signed up and never put in tracking information, only address and they emailed me with the tracking number) then you are probably back ordered for real.

I just signed up for UPS My Choice tonight ( Free account not the $40 premium one ) but haven't gotten an email yet. I imagine it would take some time to populate my registration in the system though.

UPS My Choice should not be relied on solely for those signed up. I'm signed up, completed the background check and everything yet a package coming UPS Ground from Amazon, in transit due to be delivered on Tuesday, still isn't showing up via UPS My Choice! It's been in the UPS system since Tuesday!

I have the tracking number and everything yet UPS My Choice doesn't see it and alert me so don't think that system is foolproof either.

Well, I'm right back where I started: in limbo with no way of knowing what's going on with my order/shipment... :(

I was blown away that Google allowed for more than two per person/card. Then again, don't believe they care much about these devices. This isn't about money for them, it's publicity. They don't seem to care about our experience at all. Had this been ad words we may have had a different outcome.

I was wondering about that. However, it showed up after an hour or so for me. Can't win them all...

Still no mychoice e-mail, no backorder e-mail, no shipping confirmation, 11/15 date, and pending status. Makes ZERO sense.

See my above post: UPS My Choice isn't completely reliable in alerting you to an incoming package so don't get worked up if you didn't get an email from that either.

If you get an email, great! If not, don't think it's definite that no package is coming. It still might be! :D

I really wouldn't be surprised if tomorrow my UPS guy delivers the package and I have rcvd no word of anything but a confirmation.. lol.

Then again, that probably will not happen... but I wouldn't leave it out of the question... logistical nightmare.

Yeah, it's usually been reliable for me in the past, but I wouldn't rule that out. Seems like a system bound to miss a shipment here and there.

Agreed. It would be great but I'm not counting on it.

Google really shat the bed with this one. :thumbdown:

This will probably happen to lots of people (seriously)...I wouldn't put it past Google for them to not even know if it shipped and then you have it in your hand.

from my understanding, the backorder email does not mean exactly a 3 week wait. It just means that google will not be able to honor their 3-5 business days turn around.
So, it may take up to 3 weeks, but you probably wont get it before wed next week. My guess out of thin air, is either late next week to sometime in the first week of december. Also remember, thanks giving will be slowing shipping to a crawl....
But as a benefit, i cant imagine google will not have more stock for black friday....

Just got an e-mail from a Google CSR: Sounds like they COULD be shipping more out up until the 17th.

Hello *************,

Thank you for contacting The Google Play Team.

I apologize for the inconvenience this may have caused. I have reviewed your account. Any orders that receive a shipping confirmation email by November 17th are not on backorder.


Thanks,

**************
