Nope Verizon won't give me anything. They won't help at all. I am sick of this. And my official approval is 4/6 according to them.

I should get my 3g model today. I'm pretty excited about it, but at the same time, beyond upset that it's taking so long to get these to us! 3/9 submitter and I got Verizon to send me one. (Just the Black sport 3G, not a Classic, the white/silver sport 3G was on backorder, and I wasn't waiting until June 30th for it to ship!)

I just got my gear s2 from fedex an hour ago but my status still says Submission Approved. Preparing for Shipment. Shipping Date Estimate: Pending and surprise, surprise I didn't get an email with any tracking info or stating that it was shipped. The only way that I knew it was coming was thanks to fedex delivery manager. So 11 weeks later I did finally receive my watch I honestly didn't think that it was coming because it was taking so long and the run around that I've been getting from phone calls with prizelogic. So if you guys were approved I'm sure that its coming but prizelogic is just moving at their own speed.

Mine was just delivered as well (The one from Verizon).

Glad to see they are coming!! I hate that they aren't indicating anything to us to know they've shipped outside of us having to check a million places over and over.

Congrats to all those receiving 'gifts' today! It's officially 11 wks since submission for me....and I got nuthin'. <Did I say that?> Samsung needs to get those new robots to work & get our watches to us. Samsung to use “smart factories” to replace human labor with high-precision robots
(No insult to dogs or anyone suffering from butt pimples intended)

My Bluetooth watches are supposed to arrive today. I know it's an extremely long shot, but I think I will call verizon before I open them and see if they will exchange them for 3g models. I asked the rep if it was the 3g model offered in the promo and he confirmed that it was. But my Verizon order says Bluetooth sport.

Mine came 3G and from what others have posted, so have theirs. Remember they make money if you activate the phone line, and samsung also encourages you to activate it, so I doubt it's just a Bluetooth device. Maybe I'm wrong but let's see what others have to offer...

FedEx box with a round presentation box inside with bubble padding in box. That's for the Gear S7 watch.

It looks like I will not know what I am getting until Tuesday!! I hate FedEx so much. This happens every single time they ship something to me. I get home and there is no package, so I check FedEx Delivery Manager. "Customer not available or business closed". This is such bull. I put notes on both of my doors telling them to leave the packages and signed my name, even though a signature was not even required! This happened when I ordered my S7's as well.

My S7 didn't need a signature. Wonder if you are in one of those neighborhoods that requires it no matter what.

I got my watch today. I'm beyond happy with it.

Well here I am, filed March 9th,approved a couple days later, also got a email on April 18th,called a few times, tried more but wasn't gonna wait lol, called Verizon and they couldn't do anything, check status all day and fedex and nothing at all, finally here it is 12am and check before bed, nothing on status page, check fedex and OMG finally a package coming 0.9 pounds, so hopefully the s2, I almost bought one tonight for 100 but had to back out, guess that's a good thing, well I can hopefully say this might be finally over for me, says Friday the 3rd is delivery day will see

Long time lurker, and didn't want to post until I received some good news from this so called promotion. Submitted 3/10, approved 3/12, and email approval 4/18. I live in the southeast and just got a label created on FedEx manager for a 0.9lb package, expected delivery date is 6/01. Hopefully it will be here, but since I have never posted i wanted to give a little hope to the early submitters. Good luck to all!!

 

[rushdewalt]

Same here. Submitted 3/9 and email approval 4/18. Label created for a 0.9lb package for delivery 6/01. They must have finally reached the bottom of the order bin,lol.

 

[music_man185]

All the new posts of shipments being created got me excited, but I still have nothing. Submitted the 3/11 approved 4/7
