Sams Club Pre-Order

I'm really disappointed in how Sam's Club did pre-orders for this phone. They made it seem if you Pre-ordered by the 12th you get the s8 on time. I Pre-ordered on the 7th and I'm on the waiting list.
 
do you guy know if we can do a trade-in in samsclub. because verizon offer trade in, i don't know if i can get 150$ promotion and trade in value? thanks

Very much doubting that Sams will do trade ins. Sell your old device on your own if possible.

Pre-ordering started on March 30th. You waited over a week after it started...Sam's probably doesn't get the same amount of phones as Best Buy or the carrier stores (at least the bigger ones)....How did they make it seem you would get it on launch day if you ordered by the 12th?
 
Wow. I'm hoping that they still honor the free activation tomorrow, since the site said 21st thru 23rd.

I re-read my waitlist email and it says nothing about a start date for the waiver of the activation fee, only that the offer expires 23 April.
 
My local Sams said they should be getting their ATT S8+ phones within the hour and I can pick up my pre-order as soon as they take them off the truck....
 
Just received a call from Sam's and set an appointment for later this afternoon to get an S8 which I preordered. The rep said all rebates and offers (waived activation fee) will be honored.

They only got the silver ATT phones in today...no orchid gray...they should have them tomorrow....
 
Picked mine up this early afternoon at scheduled appointment. No problems, relatively quick process. As mentioned above, all rebates, offers and waivers honored during the process. The waived activation/upgrade fee gets charged initially but will be credited to your account at some point in the next 3 billing cycles if I recall correctly.
 
Now we wait for my wife's Orchid Gray one to arrive. Fortunately she is not too pinched about me getting today....

I don't no maybe it saying order by the 12th and get it on the 21st. Pretty **** simple
 
I reserved an S8 and brought the confirmation email that said I could pick up the phone and was told I wasn't on their list. They don't know when they're getting more in... could be a week, could be 2 weeks, so I won't be eligible for the activation credit. I called customer service and they refused to honor my reservation so I'm cancelling my membership.

my sams still hasn't received their ATT S8+ Orchid gray ones yet :(


today's truck should have them so hopefully around 1PM today...
 
Called up yesterday and they made apt to pick up my orchid grey s8+ for verizon today. I come in and they say they only received two in that color and two other preorder people scheduled to come pick them up on Saturday. I was pissed. They said the warehouse screwed things up blah blah and that they would still honor the gift card deal when it was back in stock and we'd also receive a $25 e-gift card through email. What a mess they are. People were showing up trying to pick up their phones and they werent there...
 
I tried a different Sam's Club. Walked in, purchased the phone, and left working within 30 minutes.
