Whew! You're alive! I was starting to worry about you.
I don't remember, did you submit any BBB complaints?

Never got an email but just checked my Samsung BBB complaint:
Update: I rejected because of this bit:
So, PL told Samsung the same BS they told me despite not a single person at PL saying location code was an issue over multiple phone calls prior to the gifts shipping... I'm not even sure how to respond as far as accepting or rejecting the response...
Update: I rejected because of this bit:
Not once did PL ever reach out to me regarding this information and I never provided any information outside of the original claim. So this is just an outright lie.

Good going! I did the same thing (rejected) for the same reason...They were not truthful in their response. BBB needs to know that they are not even taking this seriously...just answering with whatever sounds good. Although....they did change my status today. Now it is this (I got the watches yesterday):
Congratulations! Your submission has been approved and your gift has been processed and is currently in route
OMG, a bug just flew in from outside & landed next to me. I squashed it with the Verizon "Activate Your GearS2" ad. How very appropriate....Gotta love me some bug guts!
Whew! You're alive! I was starting to worry about you.
I must be the oldest now, 3/9 mid afternoon submission!
And yeah as a kind of "For science!" experiment I did not do the BBB thing you guys did. (I was/ am super busy) (now I totally regret not doing it)
Gonna wait till Friday to see what happens.
I think that is about the only thing that works. I would have hoped they'd ship them all out after they realize the **** storm on the horizon with the BBB complaints rolling in.

Lol. Were you "Close this complaint out, I don't give a damn about the thing anymore."? Or is that someone else on here? haha
Too funny! Nope, that was not me. You know me by now...Do you honestly think I could respond to them using those few words?
Mine was a mini-novel & I think it shut me down before I finished what I was

Not that anyone asked, but...I'm waiting for my nails to dry...
One day in: My favorite thing by far is the phone. I love making D*ck Tracy calls from my wrist.
Not so impressed: Texts. You have to create (up to 160) and use those. Not able to just answer someone by typing.
The bluetooth is working great. I'm not going to activate my watch to get a new phone number. Didn't want to hassle with the forwarding scenario that some had described with having 2 numbers.
The band connecters & a regular band work well. I can't wait to get a 'girl' band. I only have a black leather band & it's comfy but not so cute.
All in all....it's better quality than I thought it would be. I'm actually enjoying it immensely. Can't wait for everyone to get theirs!!!!!

Glad you are enjoying yourself. I need to get the band connectors when I finally get mine. Where did you get them?
You should be able to reply using T9 texting.
Glad you are getting some use out of it after all your troubles.

Lol. This is at the bottom of the BBB complaint message to PL...
I still haven't heard anything from PL since calling BS on the email they sent me privately. Funny how they didn't want to communicate through the BBB site... I might need to shoot an email to the BBB about that.
oks10, I message PL FB (since he/she was one who got me return label and everything) and got msg saying That is correct, it all depends on the supply the shipping company has in stock. I haven't file BBB yet but if I don't see any progress within week, BBB way to go seems like it.
@Aushoj you haven't received anything what so ever? I am a 3/13 submitter got VR instead of S2 (shipped back VR and they received today)

Except their stock at this point should have never been a concern of ours had they followed the fulfillment method clearly stated in the terms and conditions. People who submitted early shouldn't be having to worry about what's left (or not left) in inventory. That's a problem that the late submitters should have had to deal with. (No offense to any of you late submitters that already got your watches. That's just a risk you deal with with a late submission in a first come first serve promotion, which this obviously ended up not being...)

Oh, and I sent an email to the BBB branch handling my complaint against prizelogic. When you choose to contact me directly outside of the BBB complaint site and then lie to other parties about conversations that never happened, then you better expect that information to be shared...
I activated my, but I am thinking about dropping it and using just Bluetooth. Even knowing I have the watch, found that I am seldom without my phone. The only times I have ever thought about using my watch was the couple of times I walked out of the house without my phone. And of course the only way that I have found that you can forward your phone to the watch is to be within Bluetooth range when you forward it, so if you don't have your phone with you, can't forward it. If someone knows if it can be forwarded remotely, please share. Of course you could make a call if needed from the watch itself, but is that worth $6-$7 a month (they do add taxes and fees to the $5 a month charge)? You are right, texting is the pits, I will read them on the watch, but unless the reply is a quick "okay", not going to bother on the watch.
