AT&T: Galaxy Note 8 Pre-Order Thread

When is your set delivery date?

I didn't get a delivery date but still says expected shipping date 9/4.

Yeah mine says it will ship today. Crazy how I haven't received any info yet. I wonder if it has to do anything with the color. I ordered the midnight black.

A rep will tell you that because it won't be in stores until the 15th (and it's the only info they have). They have no clue (or control) over the online order ship times. Don't fret.

I ordered the orchid gray.

Same here, I ordered M-Black. I was hoping to get an early ship but then official release date is 09/15 so they can ship any time prior to that with delivery on or before 09/15 and still meet the day one commitment. (Still hoping for an early ship)

Cheers,

What frustrates me with these, is that there's no reason for a company to estimate a ship date if they aren't going to ship it on that date. I know it's an "estimate", but with the way things are computerized and automated these days, that should be pretty accurate. Did AT&T not know that September 4th was Labor Day? Was there no way to program the computer so that it wouldn't say something would be shipped on a day where they and the shipping companies would be closed?

I'm not in a huge rush to get the phone. I would love to get it asap, but I won't be annoyed by it unless it comes after 9/15. But i'm waiting on like 3 other packages this week of stuff that I need, and so i'm overall just irritated by the whole shipping industry. None of them are good with their estimates. Not many industries can be as big of a crap shoot with their deadlines.

I pre-ordered Aug 24th at 7:21 am, got an estimated shipping date of Sept 4. At&T Ecom dept (866-267-4510) just hung up me trying get info on updated ship date...

Just got my tracking number, it was just picked up in Memphis and is on it's way! It'll be delivered tomorrow by 4:30pm!

 

[biotron2000]

Mine still say the estimated ship date was yesterday, as well. Was hoping for early shipping but it looks like this will not be the case.

What erks me is I ordered on the 23rd when the preorder opened and it did show ESD of the 4th for a couple of days then went to this and no change and the hold on my card has dropped off(although from what I have read a hold will drop off after a few days if it isn't processed)...

I’m still at preparing to ship. Has been there for a while now. Glad to see everyone getting their phones!! I must admit I am checking more today than I ever have to see if there is a change.

 

[brau0303]

I am curious and ask those that have actual valid tracking info, what color did you order?

Cheers,
BR

One rep told me it had shipped, but didn't have a tracking number. Transferred me to Sales, who told me it had not shipped and was, in fact, on backorder. Said it was supposed to be in the next batch to ship, and should ship in the next few days.

I wouldn't put any stock in the status on AT&T's site. Mine still shows Preparing to Ship but just got an email from FedEx with tracking number showing the package picked up and being delivered tomorrow. I ordered on the 26th and my original shipping estimate was Sept 12.

 

[TechnicallyTee]

Just got my email and it's shipped out. Be here tomorrow! Guess I'll be working from home to get that package asap!

 

[jsk0703]

I preorder at 12:10am on the 24th and just got an email from AT&T saying that it shipped. UPS next day air saver. So hopefully it'll be here tomorrow or Thursday.

Waaaaa, waaaaaa, I want mine!!!

 

[bettyn100]

I just got a text telling my order is on its way!

 

[DeepSeaGoddess]

I just got a shipping notification email!!! Not sure what day it arrives yet but HOORAY!!!

 

[biotron2000]
