Verizon: Galaxy Note 9 Pre-Order Thread

[trucksmoveamerica#AC]

Ah. Haha. Sometimes it's hard to tell, but I figured you didn't mean it.

I remember you saying something about this earlier, so the time came where I could have a little fun. Lol

I don't know bout you all but, to me I can't believe it's been 7 days since I preordered. Days are going fast lol. But the day phone is supposed to be delivered, time will go in slow mode lol. I'm just happy that this time around I got my note8 to hold me over instead of LG v20 I got after the note 7 recalls and was more in a hurry then to get the note8 lol

 

[Mr-Guy]

No, I have a tracking number and delivery date of the 22nd...

You all are lucky. I'm sure you'll have your preorders on the 23rd.

I have to physically walk into a brick-and-mortar carrier store and upgrade to a 512GB Note9 and getting one of those isn't guaranteed, depending on demand, although I don't think this will reach anywhere near iPhone demands.

 

[JoBudden]

I still have the your order will be shipped soon status for the last 2 days

Just reading these posts and Verizon was showing no 512 versions at one point then had them available again... I wonder if they could have pulled the 512 versions from the store's to help fulfill the preorders. Go with the guranteed sales first. Just a thought

Damn. I feel for ya. I hope you are able to get one. I hate going to my Verizon stores down here. Busy or not lol. And I definitely don't let them open box and set up phone for me. Nope I'll be the first one to open that phone. Thank you very much lol.

The worst part is when they "want to help" and they go in and disable animations and do a bunch of tweaks and crap...and then they be like "this is going to make your battery last way longer.". I just want to reach over the counter and smack the crap out of them when they do that.

Never had one do that to me.

But if you have to go into the store to get one, don't fret if they are out. They WILL get more in stock.These phones are actively sold for quite a while.

Lmao. Ikr I remember when I got my note5 in store a couple months after it been out. The guy was touching all over it and the fingerprints were driving me nuts. We were standing near a display when he was setting it up. Saying he was doing some setup to the phone or whatever and I couldn't take it anymore. I told him I don't mean to be rude but please get your hands off my phone I just paid for. I can do this stuff myself lol. I would rather preorder and be delayed than let them touch my phone.

Only thing that really pisses me off is when they tell me I have to get a new sim card. No, I don't. You just want to activate a sim card so you can charge me an activation fee.

I'm thinking the same as you. The 512gb blue will be hard to find on release. Good look to those waiting to get one in a store

 

[felloffthetruck]

Anyone been charged yet?

 

[trucksmoveamerica#AC]

Anyone been charged yet?

Nope. I'm not expecting that till next week

 

[Inkdnaija]

They told me $124 dollars for my S7E in good condition. Not worth it to me.

Go on swappa to get better price

 

[Inkdnaija]

If you wanna more money for your phone, go on Swappa.com

They would never do that.

 

[trucksmoveamerica#AC]

I've been taught to never say never. It's just a thought, either way I usually just order my phones. I don't need to stand at the Verizon store for 2 hours for them to get the phone running, I still have to set it up. I don't need to have accessories shoved down my throat. I hate going to a Verizon store.

 

[trucksmoveamerica#AC]

I just wish i could call Verizon and tell them to just charge my card. I had to call and have Chase ok the validation before I could preorder. I called Chase and alerted them that there will be a charge coming in the amount of the order, so they are aware of it coming. I can almost promise you, I'll get the email from Verizon that the card wasn't approved to enter a new card, so I'll have to call Chase and have them authorize the charge.

At least Verizon gives me time to provide payment and don't just drop the order and have me reorder, but it adds a day to my shipment.

I hate going there too, but they never open my phone and set it up for me. I tell them I'll do it at home and it's over pretty quickly. But since I'm switching from iPhone X to the Note9, I'll have to trade-in my iPhone X to offset some of the cost of the Note9. And then I'll have to transfer my texts and contacts from the iPhone to the Note9. So I'll have to set it up on release day in store. Ugh.

FWIW, last year, I went to a T-Mobile store on Note8 release day right when the store opened and there were no customers waiting in line. And that was the first Note after the Note7 fiasco, but people may have been still apprehensive about the device. Maybe things'll be different this year. Who knows. The T-Mo associate told me people wanted the iPhone X and had no interest in the Note devices.
