Sounds like it may be a long wait for the S2 based on this email I got today.

Congratulations! Your submission has been approved. We will ship your
Samsung Gear S2 to the mailing address you provided when registering
for this Offer. Please note that due to the high level of interest in the
Verizon Offer promotion, delivery times for Gear S2 are now extending into
May and potentially Summer 2016.

I got the same email today. I received the watch two days ago.

How many of the delay people are the ones that got the original email about your S2 having changed to a VR? I'm wondering if we're the people getting screwed by this newest "glitch".

I got the VR email and am getting the S2.

Got mine and...it will be a dust collector.
It's fuzzy and yes I cleaned my screen and took off the plastic.

Its called pixelation. Its due to the ppi of the screen, the s6 looks better with it due to the denser pixels. Won't be fixed til the rumored note is released that is supposed to have true 4k resolution. Google vr screen door effect. Different material looks better with it, try downloading other material

Looks like a lot of us that already received the watch got the email that our submission is approved...LOL

Maybe you'll get another one. With as screwed up as Prizelogic's system is, it wouldn't surprise me.

Don't say that. There's only 30k. Which means if they cycle through again we don't get ours lol.

Sadly, that is exactly what I was thinking!

I STILL have never gotten an email past when I first submitted. My status on both S2 claims is "preparing shipment, shipping estimate pending" but I've never gotten an email...

Edit: Actually, looking back through my emails I've NEVER gotten an email unless it was a canned response to me asking a question...

It's free! I'll take it whenever I get it.

You must have missed the uproar on the internet about those prize logic emails many people got in error saying they didn't qualify for the S2 due to bad location code. I and maybe thousands (?) others called and they said we screwed up, ignore those emails.

Re the BOGO chargers, I got 2 emails so far about being backordered (the regular wireless chargers, not the fast ones even). Samsung's communication sucks on this, no ETA this time, at least before they said 4/1. I think this is a common theme now, when they don't know when it'll ship they say 4/1.

Ah ok cool. Well it's giving me a ship date of 4/18 for the other one. Maybe I'll keep one and sell the other. Not sure yet.

Guess you'll have a lot of new toys when you get back lol.

I'm getting the VR. I received the email 2 weeks ago with the Netflix code and estimated delivery date of 4/30/16. I spotted on my FedEx manager a package that a label is created for showing ship date April 27. Hmmm why not slap that label on the box and send it on its was? Why hold onto it?

I got the same email everyone else is getting. And like others, when I go to the promotion site it now says there's no record of a submission with my email address. They certainly are doing a horrible job handling this. I checked my FedEx manager and do not show anything there yet.

I don't mind waiting the originally stated 4-6 weeks, but when I pre-ordered my phone the first weekend they went on sale and received and submitted for the promo even before the official launch date, I do expect to have it by that 6th week. It's bad enough that many people who submitted after me already have their S2 and mine hasn't even been shipped. If I don't get it by that 6th week, I'll start calling Verizon like crazy and bugging them - of course they'll say it's a Samsung thing, but since Verizon sold me the phone with the promo, they'll be getting the calls. If they get enough calls, their higher ups will start contacting Samsung's higher ups to get things taken care of.

How do you check on FedEx manager without a tracking number. Just signed up but don't see an option. Thanks

Well, my delivery date got pushed back a day..........typical.

I got an email from FedEx this morning and got all excited - only to open it up and be reminded it's my dog food order from chewy.com.

It just amazes me that Samsung customers knew there would be a huge demand for the Gear S2 promotion yet Samsung was surprised by the huge demand. That is why so many of us were so quick to submit our claims within minutes of receiving the phone. Yet Samsung and Prolizelogic were not able to figure it out. All they had to do was look at the number of pre-orders for the phones.
Since it was advertised with a limited supply, I would think that submissions would be processed in the order received. I submitted on 3/9 and still have ship date pending. It has been in this status for almost 4 weeks now. Yet those that submitted a claim as late as 3/31 already have their watch.

Samsung you have succeeded in creating 10s of thousands of very angry customers. Congradulations.

I have some mystery package coming from a promotional company in Kansas... It's followed the same trend as everyone's S2s (label created about the same time then sat there for a week before finally getting shipped) so we'll find out what it is on Tuesday when it's scheduled to get here. It's a different size package than what I've been seeing so we'll see if I'm disappointed or ecstatic when it gets here. lol.
