"I've ordered my HTC One (M8)!" (Order & Shipping Discussion)

When I checked HTC's site today the Silver & Gold models were listed so I ordered the Silver. Delivery status showed back-ordered but I ordered anyway. Got my email confirmation; when checking the order status it shows "customer attention needed" and "customer contact required." Wonder what that means???

You have to call them to verify some information to make sure it's you who ordered. It's a fraud prevention thing. I don't believe they won't go any further until you call them.
 
mine has updated to shipped and will be here by 8pm tomorrow! i had a feeling the estimated ship date was more of a placeholder but didn't want to get my hopes up. this (so far) has been one of the smoothest launches in recent memory.

What time did you order yesterday? I got a text that mine processed and it now shows estimated shipping from 3/31-4/2.
 
I ordered around 2 o'clock today an my email says the order is being processed. But the warehouse is in Louisville Kentucky where I live so I really hope I get it on Friday cuz that's my off day so I can stay home all day and wait.
 
My order confirmation arrived at 1:18PM EST yesterday, but as of 6:40PM today the order is still Preparing to Ship, with an ETA of 3/11 - 4/2. Not a big deal, but the problem w/ buzzkill is that I might regain my senses and decide I didn't really need this impulse purchase. :)

By golly, you were right! I called. The order was in limbo 'till I verified it. Told me approx shipping date was April 3rd...

EDIT: Re-checked order info page. Shows order being picked with a ship date of today!! Wo-hoo!!! We'll see...
 
This is all working out just like other times I've ordered from At&t. With the exception of the Iphone, they usually get phones delivered pretty fast. They always give a later date to cover themselves, but most of the time when I get the preparing for shipment, it's not long after that I get the phone within a day or two.
 
Ordered mine yesterday from at&t at about 1pm, arrived at my doorstep exactly 24 hours later. If only I didn't have to work until 7 pm tonight...oh well... setting up my new phone when I get home will make a boring wednesday night a lot better :cool:
 
I pulled the trigger and ordered my HTC One (M8) from Australian carrier Telstra. Should arrive on April 1 or April 2.

The camera was the only question mark for me, but after reading these forums, and seeing people post pictures from the phone (and ignoring all the nonsense being posted about it), I really don't see an issue. IMO the camera is more than capable for my needs, so I ordered it.

The M7 was my favourite device of last year (went through the One, Galaxy S4, Note 3, Xperia Z1 and Nexus 5 last year) so I'm excited to go back on HTC again. Nothing beat the Boomsound experience. When I got rid of my One, I immediately missed the speakers, and realised how annoying it is having to do the cup your hand around the back thing to hear the speaker.

Back on the HTC train. Can't wait for Tues/Wed!!
 
Ordered around 730 this morning. At&t Premier. Got shipping notice by 4pm. Will be here on Friday.

Been playing with mine for the last hour and it's very nice. The quality of this device is crazy good. And sense is smooth as butter. I'm loading apps and syncing media right now. But so far so good.

LOL I am the same way. Just wish USPS would update so I know it has at least left Texas!

Well, it's now shipped and due tomorrow! Not only didn't I regain my senses, but I'm gaining a sixth Sense.*


*Can you go too far for a pun?
 
Mine has shipped also with an estimated delivery of tomorrow. I guess I will be canceling my HTC order.

usps? who's your carrier? i love that they deliver at very consistent times at my house, but their tracking site is next to worthless for updates.

mine is coming via fedex, whom i despise, but all the carriers seem to love to ship with them. hopefully they're here early

Just sold my iPhone 5S on eBay about an hour ago. About 45mins ago I ordered my M8! I'm hoping it gets here Friday, otherwise I'm without a phone until it gets here! I did pay for next day air. Do I have any hope with getting it Friday? I'm on AT&T.

My order currently says: "Pending Confirmation". This is going to be a long night of checking the status...ahhh

I'm with Sprint and ordered today around 2:00. The warehouse is here where I live but I haven't gotten any other emails with a tracking number. Once before though I got my phone before getting a tracking number. Someone said if alot of people ordered a gold one the day before they may be busy shipping there's out 1st. I was hoping since I live here where the warehouse is and I think most people liked the gray maybe there's plenty of golds left and I'll have mine tomorrow or Friday for sure. I really hope so! I can't wait.

I just went to track my order and it says it's in back order status and I can wait or cancel. Great now I don't know what to do. I'll be calling Sprint in the morning. Maybe they don't have the gold but told me today they did.
