I got my Android TV 2 weeks ago in the UK and haven't received any code. I assumed it's because it's not valid in the UK.

Thought so too, just asking if any USA people have had it yet and if so how long it took

Forgot about this, just asked where the hell mine is through CS.

I ordered on amazon and got the code maybe 20 minutes later after my credit card was charged.

I got mine from amazon and it was given by Amazon not google

I applied for my code 12 days ago and have not received it. Called Nvidia customer service twice and just posted on the GeForce forums. Hopefully that does the trick. Purchased in the US, from BestBuy.com.

CAM 360 promo for online orders?

Has anyone gotten an approval for the CAM 360 promo for an LG G5 that they purchased online?
A couple T-Mobile reps swore to me that online purchases qualify for the rebate, but step 1 of how to submit online says:
"You will need your original receipt with IMEI number and original packaging with IMEI barcode"
Well T-Mobile receipts for phones purchased online do not have the IMEI number on the receipt like in store purchased do. They assured me that it would be fine but I've been screwed by T-Mobile in the past so I'm a little nervous.
I purchased mine online. I was approved for the camera. I just uploaded a picture of the box with the IMEI and a picture of my printed email receipt.
i got mine through the store and my 360 cam was just approved yesterday.
They have it still available online...wonder if I order my phone today if I can still get the cam.

If I'm not mistaken you can submit the offer until may but you need to have purchased by April 5th. I could be wrong though.

You are correct. So yesterday was the last day to purchase to receive the promo.
Mine is still pending. Only 3 days have passed though.

For online redemption, submit using the form below. Required items include a completed request form, the IMEI of the LG G5 device, a copy of the purchase receipt, and original UPC label from the device’s packaging. Purchase receipt must include your printed name, signature and date of submission. Online submissions must be received by May 12, 2016 at 11:59:59 PM ET.
Pretty sure you don't need the IMEI on the receipt. My previous LG submissions went through fine and I never had the IMEI on the receipt, the IMEI just needed to be on the box/UPC label.

As far as sending a receipt from an online order. I took a screen shot of this. It was available on My T-Mobile account. It took about 2 1/2 weeks to get my acceptance email.
My first app got denied claiming they were unable to see my receipt image, resubmitted as requested, still says pending.
Got mine approved yesterday.
Mine was approved quickly but hasn't shipped yet.
I signed up for both the battery and cam. The battery offer was approved in about 7 days while the cam was approved in about 12 days. I can't wait for the 360 cam, but it may take a while (LG said it may take up to 6 weeks!).
I received my 360 cam this morning via UPS. First thing I did was update it, based on this http://www.androidcentral.com/lg-360-cam-has-big-firmware-update.

You must be around FL. Thats where mine shipped from yesterday via UPS.
I received mine yesterday and have been playing with it for a while. It's a fun little toy however not sure if it is practical. I can't find a way or any information about posting 360 degree pictures on facebook or any other website. I was hoping to use this for advertising our new office. Any ideas?

Has anyone been successful at purchasing the Immersive Gear VR bundle for $99

Has anyone been successful at purchasing the Immersive Gear VR bundle for $99 when registering for the Free Gear VR on Samsung.com ?
Seems like nobody can purchase this bundle when registering.
hopefully they aren't opening up the promotion till Friday if/when i get my phone
I did. The first time I went to do it, it said I couldnt charge it to the payment plan. Few days later I tried it again and everything went through. I completed my order April 12
Not yet my wife and I are having problems. They're asking for the work Mac # and the ieim # when she puts them in it says not matching, and they do. So we're going to call tomorrow.

trying using the shop samsung app, it was a LOT faster for me. that said i didn't opt to purchase the bundle myself and went for the free gear vr. When using the shop samsung app (available on the play store), it gets the mac and imei automagically.
I got mine Immersive bundle ordered today.
I got mine to work. Registered through the Shop Samsung app, then a few hours later they e-mailed me saying my registration was approved. In that e-mail there's a link that will take you to the store where you can buy it.
I posted in the accessory section a big thread about it.
basically, you have to wait for approval, regardless of what the website says. Can take 24 hours. I got mine 23 hours after registering. Even though their website said I was approved immediately and gave me a buy now button. Per the rep I spoke with, that button was only supposed to work for people who purchased from Samsung themselves.
I selected the $99 bundle at last night. I've been in a pending review status since then. I finally received a confirmation email 18hrs later.. "Please allow approximately 2 weeks for review, then you will receive an email with next steps."

Best Buy... and I registered via the app.
I am having the same issue
I pre-ordered mines straight from Sprint. Registered for the bundle yesterday (2017/04/19), got my confirmation email and link to order the bundle just a couple hours ago, and was able to purchase it with no problems. $99+Free shipping ($14 waived). Be sure you log into your Samsung account or it'll show up as a $500 bundle instead of $99.
I did. Received email to pay and paid thru pay pal.
I still haven't received my email to pay, however I received email that? Submission have been approved

Yeah, this is BS especially for those on the West Coast. They should have not let you register until the 22nd to level the playing field.
Yep. Was a little nervous after reading this thread but everything went smooth. All done via Samsung's site. Even received the 1,000 points for activating Samsung Pay. Well..it's now 900 since I keep buying the scratch off chances to win more points. LOL 0 for 10. 900 more points to go!

UK Owners: You can get a free honor smartwatch worth £180!

I didn't actually find out about this until I was doing some casual googling, as carphone warehouse gave me no extra info with my contract, but if you purchase a V20 before February 6th, you can get a free Honor Magic smart watch. Info is all here https://huawei-redemptions.co.uk/honorview20promo/ (yes, it's a legit website, I phoned up carphone warehouse today to confirm. )
You need to have purchased from any of these shops according to their Terms of Service page:

Very

Has anybody managed to claim this yet?
The terms and conditions state you have to wait 14 days, I'm curious if anybody successfully did this before the 14 day period though, its annoys me, as there was no mention of having to wait when I purchased the View 20.
14 days is the cooling off period. Its to stop you claiming the watch then sending your phone back.

I understand the principle behind it, but what I really want to know if anybody has successfully claimed it sooner.
But on your point, whilst the idea is common sense, they've missed the fact that a lot of UK online retailers offer a 30 day money back guarantee.
Amazon.co.uk are denying all knowledge of this promotion. I'm fuming!
There are 20 retailers on the approved list, Amazon included. What has probably happened is now that the promotion has ended, the customer service agent can't see the original offer that you spoke to. I will be applying for my free watch in a few days time and dont expect an issue.
Here's the link to the list. https://huawei-redemptions.co.uk/honorview20promo/tandcs.php

14 days is because official honor site has only 14 days return policy.
I put in my request for mine as its now been 2 weeks since I got the phone. I'll update people if the watch arrives.

I got mine yesterday, it was supposed to arrive on Friday but it was delayed.
Nice little watch, although since not WearOS, I don't know if I will keep it.
For starters, just a few watchfaces, a couple of which are only relevant to China.
Did a very good job tracking my sleep last night.

Did you receive your store credit yet if you purchased from Google store during promo

I know they said it would take up to 6 weeks, but has anyone received their 100 dollar store credit yet? I was worried since they said the credit would only be good until August.
I haven't, but I assumed it would be closer to the end of June based on when I purchased the phone.
Does anyone know credit will be by the buyer or by first activation Google account?

For this promo it goes into the account that was used to purchase the phone on the play store. The promo doesn't have anything to do with activation. It's an unlocked phone so you could activate it anywhere. I also think there was a Google fi Promotion but that is something different.
I still have not received my credit but called last week. They told me it would show up within 6 weeks of the last day of the promotion (not your purchase date).
Wasn't May 18th the last day? It should be available any day.
Purchased mine in mid-May. Not store credit showed up yet.
Going tangent...
What do you guys plan to purchase with store credit? A number of accessory items seems overpriced and first thoughts are these are a waste of store credits.
I'm planning on getting Stadia

I kind of messed up in not reading that fine print. I would have bought it from Fi had I realized and gotten a $100 credit. I was actually hoping to use the hundred to buy a Pixel 4 or 4a with a trade-in on my Pixel 3 I now have. But with the August expiration I believe that's out of the question unless they do an early release or a pre-order. So I guess I'll get a case for my 3 and 3a even though I don't use a case. I'll have to review the ratings on those. I like the fabric case but mixed reviews. Any suggestions out there?
I just checked my store account and my credit is there. I purchased my 3a on the 18th.
Got mine too

Just got mine and I wonder why I didnt get a email or something that told me it was there for use? If there is a time limit to use it,,,its a little suspicious there was no notification for it??
Wow! No notice, no emails nothing. You guys are right. It appeared and it's kind of hard to find.
I was going to use it to purchase the Pixel Buds @ $109 and now they are $159!

Wait then. They'll be reduced again.
They gave us a acer chromebook worth £199 for us in the UK. I got mine a couple days ago with no notification it was coming.
hahaha I got online with google sales support. They started with, "I can help you with that". All they did was tell me that it is not available for $109 and to sign up for emails. Then they said that they will report the fact that there are no notifications.
Yes, received the credit, purchased on launch day in Canada.
I'm waiting for the pixel buds to go on sale.... Somehow I doubt it....
Anyway, what did you guys buy with the $100?
Yes I did and bought the nest hub with it

Any Canadians buy from the Google Store and receive it yet?

I ordered my 4 XL the moment they went up on the store on the 15th. Credit card was charged immediately. Got an email on the 21st that my phone was "dispatched" and it said it was expected to arrive by the 24th. This lines up with Canada Post's Expedited Parcel delivery standard.
However, even as of the evening of the 24th, the tracking information shows that Canada Post hasn't even received the phone from Google yet. If I knew it was going to be this slow, I would have just waited until the 24th and walked into any store and bought it there instead. Lesson learned.
Anyone else in the same situation? Or did anybody in Canada get theirs from the Google Store already?

I'm getting mine tomorrow (Fri Oct 25) ordered on the 23rd. Got the white XL 64 gig. You'll probably get it tomorrow. There have been times where they don't for some reason scan the packages. Happened to me when I got my Pixel 2 XL.
I'm Canadian (New Brunswick) and ordered right after announcement from Google. Received mine today via Canada Post. Ordered the black 4 XL.
Ordered on the 15 was dispatched on the 22 says it will be delivered on the 25 -28 Edmonton Alberta. From the Google the store..

Thanks for the replies, everyone!
I had my order completed and my credit card charged literally 30 seconds after the Pixel 4/XL went up for sale, yet people who ordered later already have theirs. I guess the moral of the story is that the Google Store has no consistency.
Did the phone ship via Canada Post for everyone? Perhaps they used different couriers for different regions. I would have been willing to pay for expedited shipping but there was no such option. It's strange since people ordering from the US Google Store had expediting shipping options.
I got mine today. Bought it on the pre-order and it arrived today via Canada Post.
I'm in Vancouver BC.
IS bootloader unlocked?
Had mine since the 22nd
I pre-ordered the same day of the event and received mine on Tuesday. In Ontario.

Canada Post came and went this morning, no delivery. Tracking status hasn't changed, still hasn't been picked up from the warehouse.
Clearly somebody messed up. With a purchase of this price, you would think that more care would be taken to ensure that it is shipped out on time and not left sitting in some warehouse for days or potentially weeks.
Well, I won't be buying anything from the Google Store ever again. I'm going to go pick up a 4 XL locally this morning and cancel my Google Store shipment. Based on the current level of incompetence, I imagine they will give me a lot of trouble getting my money back too.
Mine has arrived and processed at Edmonton should be here this afternoon.

Decided to contact Google chat support and the rep told me she needs to transfer me to the shipping team as it seems there is an issue with the device being sent to Canada Post.
Had me waiting nearly an hour to be transferred before I just gave up on waiting.
Leaning towards just cancelling my order and buying the phone from a local best buy or something but I really would love to have that $150 credit for pre-ordering. I also had $50 credit from before so it was helping a bit with the price.
Going to try giving them a call instead of chat and see what happens. Man this sucks, was really hoping to set this 4XL up over the weekend.

Isn't it sickening? There is just no excuse for that kind of incompetence, especially from such a massive company.
What version of the phone did you order? I ordered a white 128 GB XL and it arrived yesterday via Canada Post for me. I'm in Nova Scotia. I ordered mine similar to you, shortly after it was available for preorder on the 15th.
It's possible other versions of the phone (color/storage) did not ship as fast.

I ordered the Just Black 128GB model. Seems like it's the least popular option so I thought it'd arrive sooner than later. Definitely didn't expect for an issue like Canada Post not even receiving the phone :/
