Registration for "immersive Gear VR experience for $99" - How did it Go

[jrcdpm]

I went for the VR with controller. Got the message that they could not read my receipt from picture using app. Then uploaded my contract agreement with Verizon and they said it did not show an eligible phone (it did) and you could only try to submit twice. Had to try customer service on the phone several times with very long wait periods. After 45 minutes on hold this morning finally got through. Reviewed what I had sent and said it was fine and would escalate the review. What a ridiculous process. Awaiting confirmation e-mail now. Never got an e-mail from Verizon with a link to redeeming the offer.

I'm currently in the same situation. Hoping there is still a slim chance that I'll get the $99 VR deal still

My gift status looks different today. I ordered and paid for the $99. bundle and this is what I'm showing today.

Is this the bundle or only the Gear VR gift?

I received a Fed Ex notification that my "experience is being shipped and will arrive tomorrow. Only thing is the package only weighs 4 lbs. Is that inclusive of the total package or will the VR Goggles come in a separate package?

still being reviewed....wth?

Edit: nevermind. App was showing in review, but actually got the approved email 2 days after I registered and overlooked it. Placed order...here's hoping!

Congratulations. 4lb sounds like its the bundle. The VR is like 2lb, the rest should amount to less than 2lb. Mine still stuck in processing (already paid for it)=(

Nice! I dont think it would be 4lb if it was only the VR. Question, when did you pay for the bundle? I was hoping to see some movement in my account today but it just says processing. In the app it just says my registration was approved.

I paid for the bundle ont he 20th. Do they consider the $99. bundle a gift?

I still have no tracking number or anything.

When I did it, it let me purchase more than one bundle at $99 each, so I went ahead and ordered 30,000 of them. Figure I can make a nice profit seeking them on eBay. Especially now that they seem to be sold out for some reason.

Hit me up

So I just pulled up what I have to compare...
If I look at Samsung Gift Status it says infinitely immersive like yours, which is the freebie gift.
If I look up Samsung order status, my invoice says fully immersive package is being sent, which is the $99 package.
For whatever that's worth to ya

Edit:
P.S. my gift status page says processed also.
No expected delivery date
No tracking number
No bank hold/charge

I'm just sitting in digital pergatory waiting for the gods of Samsung to cast judgement

Argh mine says Confirmed in the Samsung Order page. Also I didn't get any email about the order on my Samsung account email. I got it on my Paypal Account email.

I'm seeing nothing under my orders.

I have the same problem and it's because I used a different email address during order than the one my Samsung account is registered to (I think that's why anyway).

Try this page.

Is that the contact email you used during ordering? I have the same issue and I'm starting to think that's why.

I paid for the $99. bundle with PayPal which has a different email address than my Samsung account.
Wonder if this is my problem?

Possibly. Not sure how you can view your order status on the page I linked if you used PayPal. Its worth trying I guess

I did everything with the same email as my Samsung account. The only difference is the paypal email address. The order confirmation email got to my Paypal email somehow but even there my shipping and billing info has my other email listed.
