T-Mobile: Galaxy Note 8 Pre-Order Thread

[313det]

Tmo customer service rep told me that they will not be shipped until the 13th. But yesterday the lady I talked to mentioned its possible they will ship early. What's with all the head games;-)

Don't trust reps. They're guessing.

there's a lot of amateurs here LOL these phones could sit over a week in the warehouse with no updates don't stress yourself out, go outside and get some lol

The next phase is anger. A lot of peed of folk demanding their phones NOW! How could T-Mobile say it was shipped and UPS tracking hasn't shown movement.

If past experience follows, once the phone actually ships, UPS will update about 5 in the morning.

Then will have the ingenious few tracking UPS planes across the country to see what lands near their city.

hmmm so apparently checking UPS and T-Mobile a million times a day doesn't make the status change any faster...

True, but I plan on single-handedly crashing UPS's servers or injure a finger hitting refresh, one or the other.

T-Mo's Pre Order thread is stomping on the others in the number of comments. Does that mean we are getting our Note 8 1st or do the other carriers have Prozac samples in their bill statements?

I explained this last time around, but "shipped" is a term of commerce, which means that shipment information has been tendered to the carrier. The same thing happens when you ship via UPS, it's in this status until UPS actually received the product. Totally normal.

TMO users are a rowdy bunch, especially during preorders lol. You should have seen the Note 7 threads. I'll just say that the mods were really busy for a while

If I recall during the Note 7 preorder, they sat in "Order Processed: Ready for UPS" for quite a while before there was any activity. On the Sprint thread people are getting delivery dates for tomorrow in their MyUPS app, but I seem to also remember that happening in one of the other preorders where UPS had delivery dates published, but the status was still "ready for UPS" so the date came and went and nobody got their phone. Lot's of sadness that day lol.

My take is, it's going to get here when it gets here. It's fun to talk and speculate if we'll get them early, but I'm not losing any sleep over it.

I shared this on another thread. UPS may make a mistake and ship earlier than tmobile wants. I received my s8+ 3 days before everyone else did due to UPS putting it 9n a truck by mistake.

I always tell myself to not get excited when I start getting texts from TMobile about shipping but I do. Get all excited and then become disappointed when I don't get it 2 weeks early. Once it gets here lll set it up and look at it like meh its ok. JOD has spoiled me that's for sure.

Not necessarily, the carrier sends the order electronically to the shipper and a tracking number is attached and that is what is showing now and every time it moves through the system they scan it which can take a few days but if some Sprint customers are getting theirs tomorrow (if their notices are for real) I would say they are at the UPS Hub so tomorrow will be a interesting day to say the least.

Proof:

Preorder the Galaxy S8 and be the first to have.

I give respect where it counts. You did prove it. Good man.

 

[Shamrock_627]

What is this about? I can't find a video, either. They mention the Note 8, and people buying out right. Sept. 6th?

T-Mobile set to show off its next Uncarrier moves on September 6 - Android Authority

 

[jb4kats]

Probably won't have any effect on the shipping process but I just got a email from Tmobile that my payment is complete but it had already cleared my bank yesterday.

 

[magia21]

I just got the successful payment receipt email too

I don't understand why people get so mad about other people excitement. This is not a lot of our 1st time pre order. We all know what could happen. Let people be excited that they see progress on their order no need to get mad at them for being excited. At the end of the day it's a phone and we will all have them before the end of September. Let people express their excitement with out being put down by people negativity.

Well said.

 

[jesskoh]

Whenever I get a new toy I will be excited too

I just got that email too. When I go to the account through the website on my phone it shows this below. It does this (for me anyway) whenever it's about to make some type of change.

Do we not get the 128gb card and wireless charging pad from T-Mobile if we pre order? I don't see it on their website.

You go through Samsung promo site for that. Or the Samsung app.

Noticed my payment was also confirmed via email and jumped into the T-Mobile app where it shows shipped. I click the link and takes me to UPS. UPS shows order processed ready for UPS.
