Re: Gear VR registration/approval/shipping info & also problems.

Registered 4/25, and I just saw that it got Accepted today 4/27. This is just for the free bundle, not the $99 version.

I thought I might get denied, because I didn't have a physical receipt from Best Buy. I just took a screenshot of the Best Buy e-mail showing that I pre-ordered it on 4/16. Thankfully, it worked. Now just gotta play the waiting game until it actually ships.

Re: Gear VR registration/approval/shipping info & also problems.

The issue for online submission: When it asks you to upload your receipt, they want your preorder receipt, not the actual order receipt. Mine initially got denied also for not being in the correct time period. Sat on hold for 2 hours, finally got to people, got it escalated etc. They sent me an email and I attached the preorder receipt (luckily I still had it) and sent it back in. Was approved.

I'm irked that the VR bundle for $99 (head phones and sd card) sold out before I even got my phone. Picked up the 21st from Best Buy and they already had notices out it was sold out.

Mine came today while I was at home for Lunch. I just got the VR. I received my phone on the 19 and did my reservation on the 19.

Mine was weird I submitted the first time it got rejected, then submitted the second time and again got rejected. Now I just got an email saying I was approved, so I guess I will be getting a gear VR.

Mine was delivered today, but I was at work and no one answered the door to sign for it. I signed the slip they left so hopefully they leave it tomorrow.

How long from when you registered to approval to delivery?

Almost a week. I submitted on the 19th and got shipping notification the 25th. My process went quick. Only took like 5 min to pay for the bundle and get an approval email.

Re: Note your approved Gear VR registration and shipping updates.

All I have is my email that I got when I pre ordered in store. They also gave me a pre-order print out when I did the order but I think the guy might have took that when I picked the phone up

i went to the Best Buy site on my phone. logged in and went to Order Details. here's what i submitted and got approved:

Re: Note your approved Gear VR registration and shipping updates.

I hear people saying that things need signed for to be delivered. Is that just for the 99 dollar bundle or is it for everyone? My local mail service is awful and usually try to pretend to deliver packages as they dont wanna climb some steps.

Mine are approved and are processing but haven't got any email from Samsung yet.
