Has anyone received their order from htcdirect? If so did you get any notification of shipment? My order appears to be stuck on "processing".
I think Inkino and HTC Direct are the same company.
I know Inkino received their Touch Pros today so you should receive it soon.
Both had stock yesturday. Mine was preordered and the statuschanged to processing late thisafternon. Wondered if they sent out a notification when it was shipped - not sure whether to take tomorrow off as the local sorting office is a pain here.

I can assure you Inkino had no stock until today at around 15.00/15.30 GMT.
Their store in Tottenham Court Road had stock this morning - but only 5 units, apparently.
Not sure who they went to, but I got one of the "second batch" when they arrived this afternoon at about 4pm. I could see two more units behind the counter when I left...
so.... an order that states pending means i should not waste a day off tomorrow? Can anyone that has received a pre order from htcdirect confirm whether they had an email stating dispatched ?
Payment was taken at 4pm today
I too have an outstanding order changed to 'Processing' today, which I hope to receive tomorrow.
Can I assume as this thread has gone quiet that all have received their units?
Thanks
Received Yesturday.
Thanks,
Got mine today .
Spoke with them and suggested they keep their customers better informed.
Not to resurrect a dead thread but my Raphael was ordered with them today (tue):
I originally ordered with mobilefun.co.uk but my bank decided (after assuring me it wouldnt happen) to not authorize my card, finally got through and sorted it with the bank and called mobilefun back. By the time I had sorted it out they had gone out of stock LOL!! cancelled it.
Went on HTCDirect and ordered it from them, called them up to just make sure it had gone through ok...they didnt know yet so took my mobile number and called me back around 10 minutes later assuring me it had gone through ok and should be with me tomorrow (wed).
The tracking system is a bit weird since you would think it was still being processed at thier end and that the device hasnt been despatched/shipped??
I will wait until i receive it to believe this next statement but.... Im sure it is on the way since they seemed real helpful over the phone. An email and status change to acknowledge it has shipped would be good though.
From experience, if they have told you they have sent it, then they have. Their tracking system seems to be a bit behind - my order was still saying "processing" on the day that i received it. All in all, the guys there were very helpful, so you have nothing to worry about. Enjoy your device tomorrow.......
So here is my story
I purchased an HTC touch pro 2 last year, i bought it before it hit the US markets so i paid a load of money for it. No problem, i love the phones, and i Paid like $700 for the Touch HD when it dropped in England but the lack of the keyboard ended with me selling it.
So i get this phone from a guy that says its direct from HTC its in an exclusive white box blah blah blah right.
Get the phone and all is well, new roms are dropping and i have WM 6.1 on my phone (weak!) so being that i have a MAC computer i cannot do anything to update the phone with out buying a load of software and putting XP on my computer (nope!).
So i go to the HTC website and the update is there and it asks for the serial number, well i put it in and it wont recognize it, hmmm. So long story intro short, i mail it to HTC for an upgrade and maybe check out the loose hinge on the tilting screen.
They receive my phone, and my phone sits on the shelf at the warehouse for 5 DAYS!!!
I call and every time i get the same story, "well mr miller we will escalate this so that it gets taken care of right away sir." I called 3 times and it was never touched. Finally on the 3rd time they tell me, well this is a sample phone, one we gave to employees before it hit the market, so there is no warranty, and we cannot upgrade it, and where did YOU get this phone. Ummm i paid for it, out in the open on Ebay, not out of the trunk of some guys car outside the pool hall.
Anyway they wont fix it, i have no warranty and thats that, ok fine whatever give my phone back, this was on Monday (April 5th) of this week. So the phone is to be sent back to me per HTC on Monday.
Call on Tuesday to get the tracking number so i can see when it will arrive because i am out a lot, and they say it is still in the warehouse.
I call back on Wednesday to get the tracking number so that i can see when it will arrive because i am out a lot, and they say it is STILL in the warehouse.
I call back on Thursday to get the tracking number so i can see when it will arrive...... etc etc.
The rep then tells me there are no notes in the system and it has not even been started for ship out.
But she is going to escalate it so that it gets sent out ASAP Mr. Miller.
Lord not this escalate crap again.
OK BYE!
I call today Friday to get the tracking number, and its the supervisor i spoke with days ago that knows AAAAALL about my case.
Well Mr. Miller the phone is still sitting on the shelf in our warehouse/
WTF for a week+?!?!
It had been determined last WEEK that they were not going to repair it and were going to send it back.
So my phone has been held hostage by HTC and they wont send it back, no one will do anything to get me over to someone in the warehouse, they act as if its Area 57 or something and they dont have phones there.
So needless to say am very VERY disappointed in the treatment I have received and it is very likely that I will not purchase another HTC phone again after this nightmare.
Shame because i enjoy the phones, but i refuse to give my money to support a company that treats its clients in such a manner.
FYI
Sounds more like a local warehouse/repairshop type of service, not HTC. Imo.

Nope, it was HTC America. I had to send it to them directly.
Weird. If this was in Norway i would just say "Hmmm.. I got this number to this newspaper" and they would give me a new free phone. Their so scared of bad PR here.
If you think HTC CS is the worst, then you haven't dealt with E-ten's..
Their RMA is actually a nightmare, they can loose a device for months, and return it "repaired" what actually means: dirty and parts still loose..
But nevertheless, good luck, hopefully the device will find it's way back to you.

When I got newton rings on my first Blackstone, I sent it off to HTC, or rather I dropped it off to them as I live in the same town.
I waited the week they said it would take, heard nothing, gave them an extra day and called, they said they'd call me back.
I called them after hearing nothing for a couple more days (I was busy at work so didn't have time to call every day).
Was informed they are waiting on my agreement to pay them a bucket load of cash to fix a warranty issue that they should fix for free.
So I had to go to a website to say that I wanted my phone back, and phone them to say I would be coming in to collect it so would not pay for postage.
Had I not known about the website and just waited, they would have disposed of my phone.
Unfortunately the customer support desk and the repair centre do not speak to each other, so when I arranged with CS that I'd be in the next Friday to pick up my phone at 1pm, they said it would be there, when in actual fact the repair centre had no idea I was coming so I had to wait around for them to find my phone and return it.
I then handed it to carphone warehouse who I'd bought it from to repair, they passed it to HTC for a warranty repair, HTC sent it back after a couple of weeks saying "No missing pixels found" even though it was sent to them to have the screen repaired due to newton rings and no mention of pixels.
Carphonewarehouse appologised and said they would send it off again, but by then I was so fed up about not having the phone for over a month, and expected HTC to refuse to repair it for CPW that I took CPW up on their offer to claim on insurance. £28 and a day later I had a brand new Blackstone.
Great products, crappy service.
AGREED, "great products, crappy service." I too had the Blackstone before i got my tp2
I ordered mine early on 11/1 or 11/2. Mine still shows as "being processed." Just wondering if anyone elses is showing this, if they ordered through t-mobile.com (upgrade)??
Thanks
Yes, mine has done the same thing. I have contacted customer service several times but they cannot tell me other than it hasn't shipped yet. I wonder if they are having problems with the website updating? I sure hope so. My confirmation email said the estimated delivery was today, and online it says 11/8. If it hasn't shipped yet, I don't see how they will make 11/8 with standard shipping. If you find anything out, let me know!
Did you order with the express shipping? I did so yesterday AM, and it showed processing - waiting on shipment all day. This AM however, it has been shipped and is set for delivery tomorrow.
No, I just did standard shipping. Did T-Mobile show the tracking online or did you get some kind of other notification that it shipped?
I ordered around noon yesterday - express shipping. The UPS tracking number doesn't show an ETA yet, but shows "Ground" shipping. I hear T-Mo does this if UPS can guarantee that the "3-day Express Shipping" will be met. Living in NY has its merits, as Ground can happen in 1 day.
I chose regular shipping on either 11/1 or 11/2 and its "still processing" with eta deliver date for 11/8, but in the email it said deliver date of today...

Have you contacted customer service yet? I am curious if you get the same answer as me. If I don't have a package when I get home from work today, I will be talking to them again.
Haven't called... Stuck at work all day. Hard to make phone calls....
i placed my order about 8 last night and mine is pending shipping. this may be due to the fact that i have express shipping? (offered free through retentions)

It should be shipped soon with express shipping. I ordered on Wednesday AM and will get it tomorrow.
Mine is "pending shipping" -- I ordered early morning yesterday. It is set to be delivered 11/10 I thought they would ship out the phone the day I ordered, but apparently they take longer to ship out ground shipping orders.
(Ground shipping -- I was told express shipping could not guarantee the phone coming on Friday, but rather guarantee was for Monday.)
I ordered on the phone yesterday. Called 611 today and said order number, as I didn't have one. The recording came back and gave me a tracking #. Scanned this morning by UPS and due here on Monday.

I am at work also, but I did the live chat a little bit ago. The rep said that she has seen it happen where the online shipping doesn't get updated, and even if it says processing, it could have shipped. I don't know if that is true or not, but I guess we will see. Other than that, I got the canned answer that based on ordering 11/1, I will get it no later than 11/10.
My status is 'complete' according to T-Mo. UPS still shows that only billing info has been received on 11/3 with no date of shipment. I wonder what that means?

UPS has been notified of the shipment. When they pick it up it the next scan will say origin scan, which should be sometime today.
I ordered mine through customer retention on 11/3 at 6:15am and was told they would ship it out express. I called in to check the status this morning and it is still processing and they now show it GROUND. I complained and they stuck to their plan saying it would be there in 3 business days. I called in again about 3 hours later and was told to check it on line with the order number. I did and it shows a delivery date of 11/10 and it was sent GROUND. First they denied me the red color and now they are playing games with the shipping. I am ready to call corporate. i have been with t mobile over 13 years and this is the third phone in a row shipped to me that went ground after telling me they were shipping express. Either UPS is ripping them off by shipping ground instead of express or T mobile is just cost cutting and wants to make the customer feel like they are being treated royally. This really puts a damper on the excitement of the new phone. When a business starts telling you one thing and doing another then they have lost all care for the customer and their customer relations awards are bogus.

When you talked to the rep on the phone, when did he mention the phone would be delivered by with express shipping? Mine told me with express he could guarantee the phone would arrive on Monday at the latest and if it didn't arrive on Monday my shipping charge would be refunded. I, of course, denied the express shipping because if I was going to have to wait the weekend I may as wait it out for ground shipping.
Now, it turns out my phone is set to be delivered on Monday with ground, which makes me think express would have delivered by Friday, so I am not a happy camper.
I ordered through retention also yesterday AM. While it was pending all of yesterday on the check order page on their website, it showed expected delivery on 11/10 - must be a default date without regard to actual shipping method.
As soon as I checked first thing this AM, it showed shipped, with next day (Friday) delivery.
tenbeau - have you checked the status online today - hopefully it has been shipped?
Just got a message from t mobile stating the phone has not been shipped yet and is due to arrive on 11/11/10. I was promised express to arrive within 3 days and according to the rep Friday the 5th at the latest. Upon calling in again I was informed that it was never meant to be shipped express but only ground even though all of the past 4 orders were supposedly sent express. Of course UPS shows ground for the last 4 orders. What a cluster f**k. This just sets the tone for the phone, I am ready to call and cancel the phone order and talk to other carriers. What really upsets the applecart is that they denied me the red color when I called in and when I called back they said red was no problem but they could not place the order until the first order was cancelled in their system and that could take up to 48 hours. The retention rep than told me that you will have the phone by Friday maybe even tomorrow so I declined to cancel and place the red order. I decided to just let things be and now the phone is 7 days away and not even the color I prefered. I am reading threads in this forum where locations did not have a selection of colors even the corporate stores. You would think that their new flagship phone would be well stocked with all colors available and everything ready to go on launch but NOT T Mobile.
Edit Just got online with T Mobile and sure enough still showing processing and delivery date of 11/11/10. I should have kept the G2 would have avoided all the hassle even though the G2 had issues. Does anyone know of the corporate phone number for T Mobile-Just spoke with Customer retention and was informed that it was processed ground even though it was ordered express. Now showing a delivery date of 11/12 and they cannot tell me why it has not been shipped. The rep offered to take $50 off of my bill. She than said T mobile paid for the shipping and I said I would have been happy to pay for the shipping to avoid all of this hassle. What mess!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Anyone else experiencing this type of clown act.
I finally called Customer Loyalty and the rep said that they just switched warehouses and that many orders have been getting lost. He said that my order was lost and would never ship. He was not able to cancel the order but was able to put a note in my account to allow me to upgrade "again" at a T-Mobile store. I suggest anyone who has been stuck in a "being processed" call Customer Loyalty and get it resolved...
Hope this helps.
Ordered over the phone, and when I got my tracking number my note 5 was going to a complete different address and city.
Verizon contacted fedex and I've contacted fedex to confirm that they've fixed the error but my tracking hasn't been updated in 18 hours and it still shows as being
At FedEx destination facility near the wrong address
Tracking claims I'll have it delivered by 4pm pst, but I don't have much confidence in getting my note 5.
Anybody been in a similar situation?
Yeah f-fedex, they're not delivering it till tomorrow now.
Went and picked it up in person, not doing anymore business with fedex if I can help it
So, on Fri 23 March I dropped my 6 day old S9+ and smashed the screen.
I immediately call Samsung customer care who say to go to my local Experience Store where they can repair my device on the same day.
I call my local (39 miles away) experience store who state that they can carry out the repair tomorrow morning if I get there first thing.
I then ring the store back to ask how much it would cost me and they state it will be £270.00 to completely repair my device and I also asked again if they are able to repair the following day to which they say that they can.
The following day I travelled to my "local" store and arrive before they open. When looking through the shutter, I see a member of staff, so I ask them if I am at the right place just in case there was another store I had to go to. The staff member asked what I was getting repaired as he might be able to book it in early and when I told him it was my S9+ screen to be replaced he quickly ran to the back to talk to the engineers and came back and apologised that I had been misinformed and that they are unable to do any S9/S9+ repairs at present and they are just swapping the devices over for a new single sim version which I did not want as mine was a Hybrid version. He then suggested I come back when the manager is in in about an hrs time.
I returned back to the store to be told by the same staff member that the current situation is that no stores are able to repair the S9/S9+ devices at present as no had been trained on the process, plus the machines they use to separate the devices have not been calibrated for the new S9/S9+ devices and it may be a month or so before they are ready to accept repairs.
I was then advised to contact customer care tech support who said I need to speak to online sales as my device was a hybrid version who then said they couldn't help and passed me back to tech support where I spoke with a decent agent who actually listened to the situation and immediately booked my device to be picked up by UPS and taken to their repair centre in Norwich. After researching, I found this to be a company called A Novo which has so many bad reviews spanning years, which did not feel me with joy.
On Mon 26 my device was picked up my UPS and tracking showed it was received the following day at A Novo at 06:59am.
Later on Tues 27 I check my online Samsung repair tracking which status has updated to "Device received and booked in and is awaiting repair" which I thought great, progress!!.....well that is what I thought!!
I allow for the Easter weekend to disappear and on Tues 3 April I ring Samsung for an update as the online system had not changed since the previous week. The Customer care adviser contacts A Novo and comes back to me 15mins later apologising for keeping me on hold for so long but there appears to be an issue as A Novo (repair centre) are stating they have not received my device to which both the Samsung adviser an myself found strange as all tracking shows it has arrived at A Novo as my online status shows that and this can only be achieved by scanning the barcode inside the packaging. I was then told to allow for 48hrs so A Novo can locate my device.
I rang Samsung back yesterday (6 Apr) for an update and was still told that my device had 'apparently' not been received. Again both the adviser and myself found that funny so she went to speak with a Manager and came back saying that they are raising a 'Lost in Transit' claim and not to worry as all tracking shows it arrived at the repair centre.
I now have to wait 3-5 working days for the claim to process and I should have a new device just after.
So i'm guessing some toe-rag has pinched my device at the repair centre as it most probably be one of the first S9+'s to come in at their centre.
I'd be livid and extremely upset had that happened to me, I really hope you get this resolved.
Did they ever find your phone?
