S7 Edge - Verizon preorders

We finally have a tracking number for the silver edge, yay! No arrival date yet though, the label has just been made. I'm guessing UPS will pickup this afternoon and if my order (scheduled to arrive tomorrow) is any indication his should come Thursday. Hurrah! And sigh of relief.
 
-------------------Thanks for the update. Just got my UPS shipping number and waiting for the update. Funny is Verizon locked their thread on this issue but I am really wondering what they will do with the change this morning by Samsung limiting the S2 watches to 35,000 which was not there during the pre-order. Verizon is not going to be able to just ignore the masses--------------------------------------------

I had posted in that thread that Verizon locked this morning last week about the S2 promo when the samsung site was requesting verification emails, the fine print said there were 300,000 units available on first come first serve basis.... VZW Reps posted in the thread that most people waiting for the silver edge wouldn't ship until 3/31 and registration ends for the S2 on 3/16 but I never got an answer....

when I called CS I got 3 different answers and now it has been noticed that Samsung has altered the fine print from what was there when the site went live on March 4th to only 35,000 units not 300,000..... called Verizon again about those people who ordered online waiting for shipments of Silver Edge that is still showing ship dates of 3/31 and again I was told that I could register for the promo on the samsung website, even after I told them you need the IMEI and the mac address they insisted I can still register and shouldn't have a problem.......
 
Woke up this morning to a tracking number for my Silver S7 edge in my e-mail. Verizon App and order status on the website both show shipped along with the tracking number. Mine is being shipped through UPS, btw. Number still hasn't updated on UPS website so I don't have a concrete delivery time, but I'd imagine it would probably be Thursday.
 
So guys. Both my orders say shipped and gave me the tracking numbers that don't show any information yet. My concern is that verizon didn't charge me for the order. I don't want it to end up being cancelled. I've already had one pre-order cancel (placed a total of 3) any words of wisdom?

so Verizon did it to me AGAIN. They cancelled my order for a 2nd time. This time they messed up running my card and said I would have to reorder. I cancelled altogether and decided to drive to Best Buy and see what that would get me. Well I walked out of Best Buy, 20 minutes later, with a new Galaxy S7 Edge/Gear VR/62GB Memory card and I could be none the happier. Meanwhile, my wife finally got notification that hers shipped today. So she still has to wait til Thursday to see hers. Moral of the story: Verizon corpoarate SUCKS!

I'm glad you got your S7! It seems that once Verizon makes a mistake with an order, they continuously make mistakes with that customer's order. I don't know why, but I'll chalk it up to Verizon being Verizon.

It's a crapshoot when it comes to Verizon. If your phones have been shipped, I wouldn't sweat it.
 
Walked into BB this morning, they had a black beauty in stock (four of them actually). So called Verizon up while I was there, cancelled my preorder, and walked out with it. I wasn't in it for the S2 or VR Gear anyway. Popped in my iPhone 6S Plus SIM card and a Sammy SD card and was good to go. Now I can get this puppy set up before I travel to visit colleges with my kid on Friday.
 
Re: Has anyone received a S7 Edge in silver through Verizon yet?

Yeah you're going to have to wait. In the pre-order thread, I see Verizon is up to 2/29 orders when it comes to the silvers.

I didn't get charged either but the shipping info will not be active on UPS until between 3-5pm this afternoon... My first shipment went out yesterday morning and will be here tomorrow between 1245-245 but it wasn't active on UPS tracking until 445pm yesterday afternoon and I was not charged, never recived any email confirmation from VZW either.......

Second shipment had tracking number this morning AND I did receive email from VZW this morning that 2nd item has shipped but was not charged and tracking number not active yet.....


..... currently on the phone with VZW waiting while my rep is speaking with a samsung rep regarding back order of siler edge and the S2 promo for last 40 minutes

edit: she is telling me that the backorder on the silver edge is being caused by samsung and speaking with them about how to remedy the situation for the promo for those that are not able to register their imei and mac address number in time to qualify for the promo..... I did stress to her that the fine print on the samsung promo has changed since it went live on March 4th and that it states there are only 35k units available and it is on a first come first serve basis and this puts anyone waiting longer than usual on the silver edge at a disadvantage to qualify..... I tired to post this concern in the Verizon community thread a couple of days ago but they locked the thread......

Traitor! Please hold my lightsaber while I bust a Kylo...

Did they give you the pre-order bundle though? My local BB is handing them out with new purchases because it's still technically a pre-order.... of like 5 minutes.

Don't mind my horrible picture taking skills. Letting it charge up right now.

Screw the phone, more pictures of that rug, towel, mat, etc.

Let us know how it goes with the call!
 
Ok so something I hadn't thought about, should we take the SIMs out of our iPhone 6s' and put them in the Galaxies or use the new SIMs from the s7's? What's the difference? Or does it matter?
