Hey folks, does anybody here work for T-Mobile UK? Or if any of you have done this could you let me know?
Does anyone know if you can buy handsets directly from T-Mobile without the contact? For example, buy the non-subsidised phone outright as you would buying a sim-free model from online retailers at the usual £200-£500 cost?
Currently can't call them to ask, and wanted their version of the handset from rather than other retailers.
Enter to marketplace, perhaps you can find some
Hello,
I've just ordered a Nexus 5 from Google Play and sent it to a friend of mine in US.
I used my credit card but in the billing address I used the shipping address (in the US), so it will let me purchase is, because Google Play doesn't sell it in my country.
The order was successful, but I heard of people who ordered but later got their order declined because of their credit card country that mismatched the shipping address.
Does anyone know after how much time I can be sure my order "passed the test" and won't be declined?
Thanks,
Elad
Hi everyone,
I am thinking of ordering a 32GB Nexus 5 from here, http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00GD9R79O/ref=as_li_qf_sp_asin_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B00GD9R79O&linkCode=as2&tag=warpwhistle-20 I was just wondering about Warranty if something were to go wrong with the phone can I return it to Google Play. How do I get it transferred to my name?
Warranty is done by lg if you didn't buy it from google play, and if someone bought it from google play and gave it to you as a gift its also done by lg... stupid if you ask me.
Its better to order it from Google play because you have a 1 year warranty if you need to RMA just call Google and they'll send you a new device then you send them back yours when you receive it. If you buy it from somewhere else you'll have to send it to lg and wait for them to fix it or send you a refurbished device.

Could I not just get the receipt from the seller and transfer it to me if they bought it on the Google Play Store?
I bought my Nexus from UK but I live in Bulgaria
LG Bulgaria will keep my warranty?
I called a Google rep and they said all the original buyer has to do is call in, give them their billing address, name, and the phone's IMEI. They'll confirm their information. Then the original buyer gives google your name, email, and billing address and they transfer the warranty to you.
All of this information was given to me under the assumption that I had received the phone as a gift. If you tell them you bought it off someone from Craigslist, I'm not sure if that would disqualify the warranty transfer..
I got mine on eBay and bought along with it a one-year warranty against malfunction, drops, theft, and loss for $75.
What is wrong with Google Play Store? Just order from there and save hassle if it comes to it.

Just try to think about outside of US. If you receive your phone as a gift from someone from another country, you need the warranty. It is a shame that Google is unable to provide worldwide warranty and stick the users to their location.
Other scenario is if you move away from the country you can screw up your google play store warranty.
Hi!, dunno if this is the correct forum but I figured it was either here on in the general Nexus 5 so hope it's right .
I'm in Argentina and will be spending 10 days in NYC during the second part of January. I want to buy a N5 but I'm not sure where to do it since they are way too overpriced in both Amazon and ebay and I can't buy them directly from the play store because it's blocked from my country and I'm not sure what the shipping times would be in case I manage to order it from there once I'm in the US (some friends told me that to buy through the US play store you need a US credit card too).
I know there are some retailers that sell it but do they sell it unlocked or only with contracts with carriers?. Any other options to try to buy one?.
Thanks!.
Check out Best Buy!
Yeah, I checked there and it only has the 16GBs model and ~$150 more expensive than the play store (and even more expensive than the 32GBs version in Amazon which is at around $450).
I think bestbuy just sells sprint version.its locked

Well any store you buy it in is going to have it marked up from the Play Store because that's just how the US is. It sucks, but yeah.
You should find a broker willing to ship it to you from the US. Meaning: you give them money, they buy the phone, they get the phone, they ship the phone to you. Simple!

No, it is NOT locked.
You can buy the unlock version in Best Buy but according to their website they only have the 16GBs version.
All nexus 5s are the same they're all unlocked for use

Hi all. I live outside of US but want to buy nexus device from google play store.

Any information is appreciated. Thanks.
