It has shipped!!!!!!

[DianeR]

Diane, I'm starting to think our phones are next to each other on the truck... Our statuses are completely synchronized. Probably will be I think until phones reach final trucks.
Coatsville FedEx is on Airport Rd. Wanna bet our next stop is Newark?

lol - what I don't understand is why is the status now say:

7/5 3:26am - shipment information sent to fedex, when it already says:

7/4 2:15pm - left fedex origin facility (coatesville, PA) and status was changed to 'in transit' at this time. Since our fedex facility is only 2 hours from Coatesville, I don't understand why it hasn't been received into our local fedex facility and it still says estimated delivery of 7/9, which is more than 3 days since it was in transit on 7/4.

I have the same Linwood issue - I was told this shipment was in route to Manachee NJ and all deliveries will occur tomorrow.

I just called FedEx and they said they are opening up a case and that a case agent would be contacting me later in the day. I'll report findings after the call.

I just talked to a fed ex rep and she said the same thing. She assured me the delivery date would not change (7/9)

Same for me. Sitting in West Chester, though I live about an hour east in Jersey. That being said its not killin me, It would be nice to have it for the weekend to fiddle with but Ive settled into the itll get here when it gets here mentality. =)

Mine's still in PA too but it did make it to Coateville, PA and supposedly left there at 2:15pm yesterday. Today it's showing as 'shipment info sent to Fedex' which sounds like it hasn't gone anywhere! So frustrating with it only 2 hours away. Leaving town Sunday night for a business trip and want to go pick it up somewhere! Wonder if we can?

Did you see that on the FedEx site or did you get a call? My status still shows "SOL in Linwood."

Edit: LOL. Nevermind. One more hit of the F5 key and I see that my phone continues to stalk yours in Newark.

From Horhsam, PA --

Per FedEX the Phone was to be delivered 7/6 by 4:30 PM. Thought it was kind of strange given how close the phone was in West Chester.

So....it just showed up now! 7/5 at 10:30 AM.

West Chester, Coatsville, Linwood, Horsham.

woot.

I always heard fedex has to attemp to deliever before you can go by and pick it up .But I never have tried ,my guess would be to call the fedex place that has your phone first and find out

I got my email yesterday and just checked the shipment. It was sent out today with a delivery date of 7/9. It indicates 2 day delivery, but the 2nd day falls on a Saturday so delivery will be Monday. I called VZW to let them have it and the lady just decided to priority overnight me a new one for delivery tomorrow 7/6!!!!

YAHOOO!!!! ...hopefully I can activate it.

Mine is exactly the same and I wondered the same thing... I'm starting to think that the 9th is legitimate...

I just called fedex. They said even thought the phone is only 2 hours away (PA) it does go through Newark to get to Branchburg. And since the package was shipped 2 day delivery instead of 1 day delivery and there is a large quantity of phones being shipped, it might take the 2 days instead of one. She could not tell me if it would come Friday or Monday. But she did switch the notes to say it was shipping to a business instead of residential (which it is) and the hours it closes so the delivery attempt would be made earlier in the day. She also pointed out on the fedex site status page that it says 'indirect' which means you can leave a note for them to leave the package at your door. You don't have to wait for the delivery tag.

I also questioned the 2 days being Monday delivery since it looked like it went 'in transit' on 7/4. She said even though the status said that, they were closed Wednesday, so shipping day is Thursday, and they don't count the day it ships (so you can blame Fedex for how they count days, not Verizon).

at least you have gotten billed/shipped

Luckily I telework so I'll be home when they show up. I just saw in another thread where people receiving their phones can not activate them. If that's the case I don't want the phone until Monday. I couldn't stand to have an non-working S3 sitting in my house.

EDIT: Apparently the ESN rumor is false as some people have activated their phones. I'll call FedEx and give them permission to deliver early now...

I wouldn't over generalize. It's just one person that I have seen that hasn't been able to activate. At least 1 person has been able to activate......so obviously they can be activated. Seems like an isolated incident.

Yes I just saw that and corrected my post.

 

[DianeR]

subject on that thread needs to be revised so everyone doesn't freak out. Moderator?

My phone just arrived in Newark from Linwood...now 10 miles away. Wonder if theres a chance for delivery today??
