Absolutely, yes. Will have my case, screen protector and back camera lense protectors ready to go tonight. Also will have the transfer cable, along with the trade-in label ready to go.

I'll put the screen protective film on, the will do the phone the transfer. Hopefully the SIM swap will be no issue without going to T-Mobile store.

how does one get UPS or FedEx corporate's phone number???

if possible, kindly private message me please! thank you!

It's nothing private. I just called the 1800 GO FEDEX number and spoke to a representative. Described what happened and asked her to call the driver which she did with no hesitation.

Well, I work till 4 so unless it shows up early and I run home and grab it I won't have mine till around 4. Almost had to do a side job after work tomorrow, but it didn't need parts and I was able to fix it with a pry bar, hammer and impact gun so my afternoon is free.

Well now you'll have a nice surprise waiting for you when you get home .

One time they happened to show up when no one was home for the only 45 min of the day and it required a signature. Called them right after they left my house and the driver said he would come back. So I left work real quick only for them not to show up. Then I drove 1.5 hours round trip to grab my package from their hub. That was when I got my tab s8 ultra along with whatever phone came out that year.

Oh wow that's horrible. At least they had it available at the hub for you same day it seems. When I tried picking up a package same day l had to wait the next day because the driver with my package hasn't returned for the day even though it was almost closing time lol.

my package travelled from the UPS location in Arlington, TX to Haslet, TX...the phone is literally 10 miles from my home right now

 

[buzzy3970]

I just received an email my package has shipped, I thought it was only getting shipped next week this is a very pleasant surprise, maybe get it for my birthday on Friday

And i still don't have a case

Happy early birthday and you can always order a case from Amazon and get it the next day if available. Mine should arrive tomorrow.

If you're just moving your sim from phone to phone their should be no issues. The joys of having a physical card.

you might want to switch to an eSim takes about 30 seconds

Thanks! I just ordered a case now scheduled to arrive Friday but it looks like my phone may actually arrive tomorrow according to the purolator site

I saw that option under sim manager. Can you use both physical sim and eSim, switching between the 2?

Believe me it would take you longer to pull out your old sim and move it to the other. With the eSim manager you just set you phones side by side and clock

Those sims are so small I fumble with switching them and getting it just right. At lease the Ultras have a try. I switch between my Ultra and Flip 6

My order is at the facility in my city. Use to getting these notifications late at night early morning. Hopefully my phone is the first stop on the truck .

Just wanted to share what I read over at Reddit just now. Some UPS drivers posted that they have specific instructions not to deliver any of the new release S25 phones from Samsung unless they have a signature from the customer. So no matter what we chose on the signature or non-signature method with Samsung, UPS won't deliver the phone unless you're there.

Interesting. I don't believe they're going to go out of their way for packages that don't require a signature, but we'll see. Well report back as I opted for no signature on my delivery.

How do they know it's an s25? It doesn't say galaxy on the label.

 

[EazyD33]

Yeah, reddit is one big echo chamber anymore.

Two different UPS drivers said they have been instructed on their Samsung deliveries that are marked "new release phones" they aren't to deliver the package unless they get signature from the customer.

How they identify a new phone release delivery vs. any other I'm not certain, but they said the company is treating it like a new iPhone release and often times those are taken off of people's doorsteps.

I'm sure there will be some drivers that may leave it, but I'm not chancing it tomorrow.

Looks like you guys in the US are getting them before us (in the UK at least) still showing 'preparing dispatch' and 'get it by' Feb 1st.
