Google order...128gig black xl...went to pending yesterday and just went to processing status. Waiting to see if my Google financing is charged soon.

Ditto, minus the financing part. Mine just changed from Pending to Processing!

I'm out of town but a friend grabbed my Pixel XL 128GB in quite black along with my Google Home today and took it inside my house. Ordered it from the Google Store with their financing on October 4th about 2 hours after announcement. Also my Chromecast Ultra has shipped and should be here this coming week. Ordered that the day AC announced it was available to be ordered.

At about 8pm EST, I received a flurry of emails and texts. The text was from my longtime credit card bank, Bank of America, informing me that there had been some possibly fraudulent charges on my card today, and that it had declined one of them. It was, of course, the Pixel XL transaction. Nooooo! (Mind you, I've had this card 19 years, pay off my balance monthly, and have a $50K limit.)

I furiously typed YES in reply to the text to indicate I had authorized all of the charges, and got on the phone to the bank. Checking my Pixel order, I saw it still said Pending, so I asked Google to call me. While I was waiting on hold with the bank, I noticed that one of the emails that had come in at 8 was on my Gmail account, which I don't use for the credit card. It was from Google, saying there had been a problem with my payment and telling me I had 7 days to correct the problem or my order would be canceled. I hit the Fix or Retry button offered, and changed the payment method from my credit card to my bank card (NOT Bank of America).

Google called just then -- I was still on hold waiting for the credit card bank -- and the rep stepped through everything, and confirmed that the payment via the new method had been authorized and that all was right with my order. Bank of America finally answered at that moment. I hung up on them. I thanked the Google rep, and a couple of minutes later, checked my order status. It had changed from Pending to Processing.

Thank you, Google. And f- you, Bank of America.

Wow. Well, it took barely a day for my Google Home to arrive after being shipped.


My Pixel XL order is also now listed as "Processing." Here's hoping it ships as quickly as the Google Home did.

Also processing, how long until they ship?

Does anyone know if they use UPS or FedEx for shipping?

Honestly I'm not sure. I was at work all day until about thirty mins ago and just checked to find it was processing and I got charged.

I know it was still in pending status around 5pm today


BTW ordered from Google, silver xl 128 on 10/15

After seeing that some of you have had issues with your credit card company erroneously presuming the charge for the phone was most likely fraudulent and rejecting it, I decided to proactively contact my credit card company to make them aware that this charge will be coming through, and that it is a valid charge. Customer service put a note in my file about the conversation, including the amount of the charge, and said there will be no problem.

After reading about JasW's experience, I'm sure glad I didn't use my Bank of America card.

Mine is still pending. Has not changed yet. Ordered 10/21 128gb black.

I am waiting for Lifeproof Pixel XL case to be available. Looks like they just released the iPhone 7 version so hopefully the XL isn't far behind. I've currently got the Spigen Ultra Hybrid and Yootech glass screen protector just waiting for my Pixel to arrive... I'm considering pulling the trigger on RhinoShield Crash Guard too.

I've heard some seriously good things about the rhino screen protector. Only reason I don't use one is because of the defender screen protector integrated in to the case.

5 pm Pacific time

Processing, my card has been charged.

 

[archermoo]

Mine has switched to processing from pending, and there is a new pending charge from Google as of just after 5pm today.
