Tmo does not have V20 in stores

[notacoach]

Yesterday, Tmo showed it as "backordered"; today, no indication. Anybody know then state of play?

 

[notacoach]

I picked one up in a T-Mobile store yesterday, so they are out there. All of the staff I have spoken to say that they're typically getting one in every shipment, and that they usually sell by the end of the day. It would appear that demand has simply outstrip Supply.

Nothing in Madison Wisconsin

Clearly you're with the wrong carrier. Despite the pre-announced in store date of 10/28, AT&T actually had it in store on 10/24. I got mine on 10/24.

Tmobile does appear to have less selection and quantities than the other carriers. I got the s7edge gold because they don't offer black and they don't even show the note 5 anymore which is what I preferred.

The N5 is out everywhere apart from Ebay....lol. I think give it around X-mas and it will be back in stock.

I had to call 4 stores today before I finally found one

Same here. Finally found one in Madison WI. It's a sweet phone by the way.

AT&T had it in stock because they want $830 for it, ha ha. :-X

Tmobile site says backordered.

I have a AT&T v20 from the first day pre order. This reported lack of stock all across the board is strange. It's a few and far between thing. After the Note 7 disaster I sure am nervous. Maybe there is a hush hush issue LG is dealing with. No way would LG mention it, not after the Samsung disaster. Like I said just a fear only, hopefully it's just really a stock issue. Then again, I really don't see how they blasted through the stock that quick, v20 was barely avail on release day and it's not like the forums and alike are buzzing with activity from new users

I still think there is a small issue with the lens cover and even though there are only a few at this point the same was with the Note 7, there weren't that many world wide and of course the issue with the Note 7's was much more serious. I am one of the few that have the shattered lens cover and I did nothing to cause it. It was in my purse but that's where all my phones go in a side pocket but something caused it but I'm not hard on phones at all and my local store is still playing around with fixing it but of course Customer Care wanted me to file a claim and that's $175 and really stupid for a $50 fix. The problem is no one has the part since it's a brand new phone and sometimes they do use same replacement parts from other branded phones but the V20 is a new design so no new parts available just yet. I probably will be switching back to my Edge until there is one available to prevent any damage to the camera itself.

I had the same issue on the G5 and had posted long before V20 release about my concerns. I am almost 100 percent positive that mine broke on its own. After fixing it I actually dropped the G5 on a hard surface and the LCD popped out on one side but pressed back into place and damage to the camera glass. The G5 has been fine. I'm wondering if some of the camera glass is slightly larger than others and that causes it to stress inside the frame.

Coming from a banned Note 7 that I still use everyday, I waited for the release of the V20. Easy to do because Tmo didn't have any S7Es a week ago or so when the 2nd wave of "turn your space heater in or die" hit. I really need to do an exchange because my Tmo bill is terribly jacked up from the Note7 experiment. Needless to say there was absolutely no stock anywhere to be found at the 7 stores between work and home yesterday. Each location said we receive shipments everyday Monday - Friday.

Is the shattered back lens really an issue?

I am tired of setting up phones.

For those family, friends and Tmo associates that keep asking, I don't want an iPhone. Stop asking.

Tmo started crippling the Note 7 this weekend. I made the decision to leave Sammy but no V20s in stock. "We can ship it to you." At the 3rd store, I walked out with a S7E.

I tried.

At Tmobile you have to call every store yourself to find one? There is no online or system that can show in stock? Sounds crazy.

Pretty much. I had to call 4 to find my V20. Fortunately in my area it feels like there's a Tmo store every 2 miles.

Wow. Yeah my verizon stores don't have any in stock. When I ordered my v20 online yesterday their site said ship by 11/14/16 now the site says ship by 11/10/16 but mine shipped today. Luckily verizon always shipped my phones before estimated ship date. Hope you find one.

The S7e is a nice phone. I don't think it'll disappoint you too much.

I went to finally return my N7 today and the CR ask me if I had a phone. I said no just for giggles....he said well you are out of luck because there are no N5, LGV20, S7 or S7E in stock or in 5 miles radius. I asked so what is there to get? Iphone 7. I said no thanks and walked out....lol.
