Well nothing here yet and submitted the 12th supposedly approved 4/7. No idea what to think. Although I did get a call from prize logic tonight just didn't hear phone ring. Just spilled some of the same bs.

Yep. It's starting to get old. I wish there was someone this could be brought up to that would actually do anything. Like, oh say, get those of us that submitted the first week our watches maybe?...
Same exact situation except Submitted 3/11 and approved 3/13, letter 4/7, shipment date pending....I really think ours are lost somewhere.
FYI...even though PL website says they are open at 10AM...they are answering phones with no wait time at 9AM EST.
Apparently my stuff is at the Fedex and i should be receiving them soon. Lady said some confusing BS about my order being sent out on April 6 which is a month ago, but someone else here said something about 4/6 as well. Anyway, I am told i can expect them soon.
I also asked for confirmation that i am receiving the watches and she said that their system has changed and the only thing they can see is approval/rejection status.

How convenient... Now they don't have to answer people asking why PL told them they were receiving one thing only to actually receive something else...
I don't understand....After all the phone calls and realizing that they messed up you would think they would finally do it the correct way and send the people who submitted first their S2's first. I submitted 3/11, people who submitted before me should get it before me and the ones who submitted after me should get it after me. They are still not fixing it.
What I am afraid of is that some of us who submitted between 3/9-3/12 paperwork got lost when sent over to the distribution center. Sure we are still in PL system that is why we get these blanket emails but have no movement on their site (shipping date pending and no fed ex label created). We keep calling and they keep changing the date now they say up to 8 weeks from the 4/7 letter date. What happens in 8 weeks when they still did not ship it out because the distribution center lost our paperwork? Will they finally then look into it????? Sorry venting. Happy that people are getting movement but sucks that I submitted long before them and nothing!!!

I know how you feel! I processed my paperwork on 3/11. Shipping pending!.

That "last mile" part of the distribution is handled by a company call "Brightpoint Distribution LLC" (Brightpoint North America LLC | Company Profile from Hoover’s)
And that company seems so freakin huge that they can tell PL to go blow when PL complains about "first come first serve"
This is where I think our as a first week submitter got lost
UPDATED:Waited 4 days for the $200 ecode. Nothing. Called PL yet again. (surprisingly, they answered, no waiting). They are "sorry for the delay", and I should receive the eCert today. Imagine my confidence level.....
I made my weekly call to PL (I like to keep track of the different answers each week) and here's this weeks rhetoric: They apologize that the process is taking so long. I 'should' receive my S2 by the 1st wk of June!' No answer to why submissions after mine are still being sent out ahead of mine. They say mine was sent to fulfillment for shipping on April 8th (this is new and different info), but no answer as to why it would take 2 months to ship it to me! I told them that I understood this circle of blame from V to S to PL to Brightpont....that they can all blame the other, but that I found it hard to believe that someone couldn't pick up a phone, call, and tell them to ship this out because this entire process was wrong, wrong, wrong. No answer.
Oh well, it made me feel better to vent. I don't believe that they can only see Approval/Rejection status. <<I think that's this week's excuse to add to the list.
Do you think we will ever really get them??? Or do you think our paperwork got lost at the Distribution center?
Did the PL rep actually use the word Brightpoint? or was it a "fulfillment company"
I Think that we originally figure out the Brightpoint part of the puzzle when fedex shipping labels started to get reported and we google maps searched the address.
I mention this because there s no real way to contact Brightpoint. That company suspiciously has a very low web presence. Almost like they intentionally insulated themselves.
I honestly have no idea what to believe anymore. I would like to think that we will get them, but since we're dealing with a system that can't seem to keep it's own lies straight, how will we know until we have them in-hand? Remember the "they ran out & backordered' line from weeks ago? We now know that's not true. There are so many lies, it's hard to keep up with them all. I loved Samsung's answer: We are only the manufacturers, we have nothing to do with promotions or sales. I think my rant for the day is about companies that can't stand behind what they offer/make/or supply. This situation is going to cause me to think twice before I purchase ANYTHING in the future that involves a "free" option along with the purchase. Lesson learned.
