Anybody get their promo code yet? Google VR Services is now uploaded to the Play Store, so they have to be coming soon. I've already seen an article where somebody was lucky enough to receive their free Daydream View headset. How about you guys?
I haven't seen an email yet either
my pre-ordered phone FINALLY came in today (3-1/2" weeks after I ordered it but still two weeks ahead of schedule). No promo code yet.
No vr code yet, wonder why the long wait...
I pre-ordered the day that the site opened, got my pixel on Oct 20th. Haven't received my code yet. The confirmation email I got said it would be around 4 weeks after my ship date which was the 19th (Damn right I paid for overnite!)

Yeah same situation here, looks like they're going to push this right to four weeks.
Remember the terms said "while supplies last." Plot twist, they only had 10 to give away for free.
Haven't received my code yet either.

Hey guys! I ordered my Pixel XL on release day and come this Wednesday it will have been four weeks since my phone shipped. I just spoke with Google support, he informed me the promo codes will be sent out next week in phases. He let me know that I am among the priority customers who will be in the first phase. I ordered around 12:30 PDT on 10/4.

Got my code
I just got my code at 11:48pm. Check your emails guys. I ordered my black 32gb Pixel on October 12th from the play store.
Got my code too.
I just got mine too. Had to pay for expedited I can't wait any longer lol.
I ordered my phone past the cutoff date for the daydream. Does anyone have an extra code that they could throw my way? I'd be willing to pay for it.
Yes! Delivery date 11/23-11/25.
haven't gotten mine yet. The phone itself wasn't supposed to be here until the 20th-24th, but I have had it since 11/11.
I went back and the email about receiving a free code says it could take 4 weeks.
Look what I just got in the mail like 3 minutes ago!!!!
I got my headset Saturday using the free shipping. Nothing amazing yet. I can see headaches from use coming. Kinda sucks daydream kicks on when you put the phone in it. I haven't figured out how to run apps I downloaded from the play store yet. The play store in daydream only loads a black screen and the vr apps I download from playstore outside of daydream don't show up in daydream library

I'm still waiting for my samsung tv 4 to 6 weeks i bought my note dec 2 .

I did the $200 rebate and football sweepstakes. After six weeks, I wrote prize logic and they say a few more weeks. Funny thing is the football sweepstakes is for a trip to California next week. Guess they will give winners either no notice or give winner a trip AFTER the Super Bowl.

At least we know they're shipping them! You're the first person I've heard of getting theirs. No notification? It just showed up?
The tv super lightweight it looks pretty damn good on the xbox1 all for buying a note 5 its a win win situation it just took about a month and a week
There's no way of tracking it i just got a paper from fed ex saying they tried to deliver it but no one was at home and it wasn't safe to leave .
Anyone else receive theirs? Starting to worry.

Same here ...
I got my TV a couple of days ago. They did not send any notification that it was on its way. It just showed up on my doorstep.
I upgraded 2 phones on my account, mine and my gf's. Uploaded 2 receipts, and as of yesterday, received 2 TVs. Just to give you a time frame and just how odd it can be, we upgraded the last part of December, both were approved on the same night, Dec 22nd. A tv addressed to my gf showed up on Jan 29th, and one addressed to me showed up yesterday. I literally gave up on mine arriving, but it came. Just give it time, it will show. Helluva promo huh? Nice little TVs!

The confusing part is that if you go to the main samsung.com.au site it is advertising that if you order now, you will receive the device by April 21st...
Ok so, I just spoke with a CSR and I have been told that the phones will be shipped out on the 21st and delivered on the 24th!

So far from my preorder experience, I used to get on the specified date. If we getting on 24th, what's the point in preordering? I think we will be getting on 21st onwards. Else, I will drop by JBHIFI or someone and get the phone on hand on 21st.
The site clearly says that you will start getting from 21st April.

UPDATE: Just got off the phone with Samsung Australia, spoke to 2 reps, including a Supervisor; apparently we were advised during the pre-ordering process that the GearVR would not arrive until 28 days (or longer) after the phone arrived....
Don't know about you guys, but I was not advised, in fact, I have email receipts and print screens stating that the gearvr ship on the 21st!?

Same here. But I don't work about Gear VR at all. Its a useless device. I got one with my S7 which I used for 30mins and never used it again. You cannot use it continuously as it creates fog inside on continuous usage.

Which is basically what I had mentioned a few days ago from my conversation with a Samsung CSR.
The bigger question is, why send it on a Friday and just have it sitting at Auspost over the weekend... That is just cruel. The ideal scenario is to have it on a Friday and have the whole weekend to play with the new toy.

Sounds like the have logistics issues.... they really need to get their priorities straight.
Beside alll that, having that much $$$$ just sitting somewhere for 2 days when it could have been avoided by sending it 2 days earlier is just a stupid thing to do, it creates an unecassary peril to the device that otherwise could have easily been avoided. Insurance policy would typicicaly.....

Truth is im not all the excited to get it on time or early for a few reasons;
The vr doesnt arrive with the phone and I need both the gear vr and the phone to effectivly evalute if the display is free of defects so the more time it takes to reach me, the better. Was hoping I be able to do this within that 14 day change your mind policy... What a ...
Also, i'm not going to be truly excited about this phone until TWRP is up and running on it and hopefully at most were a month away from that arriving...
Lastly, it seems like in the last 10 years things have progressively gotten a whole lot worse in the QA for all manufactures, it seems these days you don't get a device your happy with until you have fought with the CSR reps and exchanged the units a few times, etc.. I actually dislike purchasing new gadgets with displays for this reason, it's a royal pain in the arse!!
I just couldn't pass up that damn vr promo! Here's to hopefully being excited about S8+ a month from now when the dust settles
JB hi-fi ships out today for my s8+ ?

They have been silent except the promise arrive by 20th date. I assume they are shipping Fedex and not UPS. I have notification set up on both UPS and Fedex just in case. I have zero results of a label having been created and no movement from the order status screen. Please list any correspondence that you all have had with Samsung. It does not matter what carrier is chosen just the ones that are being sent direct from Samsung for those that have ordered from their site.
Ordered on 4/9. Got a confirmation email and zero correspondence since [emoji848]??*

I ordered on 04/03. If it is delayed, I learned my lesson and will not order direct again just to get the extras quicker. Samsung is really pitiful if they mess this up. Im so jealous of the people who were smart enough to order straight from TMO

Mine delivered today, got charged late last night. Phone's charging as I type this up.
Anybody try tracking via FedEx? As long as you ordered from Samsung.com you can track by reference and use your order# followed by a "-01" and make sure to choose the destination country and destination zip code. Worked for me, was able to figure that out once I received my tracking info from FedEx and I tried it to see if it would help any others. Give it a shot if you haven't received anything yet.
Well I spoke with them and they said they are trying to ship the bundle together and then slipped up saying 6-8weeks for the bundle but trying to ship together or right after they ship phone. She also said 3 days max for preparing then shipped out no later than 3 days time of order

I was part of the T-Mobile S8 preorder and decided to make this. We can discuss the gear VR and shipping around it. Has everyone submitted their order and how did you submit it? I did it with the Samsung Shop app.
You know what sucks?.....the fact that I rushed an upload of my receipt in a form of a pdf from tmobiles site to Samsung's promotion site Realizing that it was my old s7e receipt.... now it's processing and Samsung's customer service is backed up from flooded calls...i did not have the patience of waiting 2 hours, sad thing is I probably did because I fell asleep and woke up with that stupid ass song playing while they got me on hold through the speaker phone....looks like I won't get a free gear vr because of my stupidity.......yep pretty much? and yes I used shop app
---------- Post added at 10:54 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:48 PM ----------
You know what else is dumb?....lady made me feel like a tard because she made me download an app called samsung tutor...holy ****e! It's an app for her to be able to control my phone on her end...and she went to the shop app and did what I already knew and said yep it's processing lol..mind you I'm watching my phone do things without me touching it so that messed my brain up for a minute lol.....im thinking bruh I already know this you did that to think I didn't know my way around my own damn phone...really?.....lol what a day
I just did it through the samsiumg store app.

There's another thread about this here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s8/help/samsung-promotions-success-t3592129. Some are having trouble but the app worked for me.
I submitted the request via the website.
I have to provide further proof because the screenshot I posted from MyT-mobile was apparently missing the order date, which I now did. But I am happy to see that my request was reviewed within 14 hours of submission. Perhaps Samsung is putting serious resources into this review process.
I submitted two offers yesterday, and both were approved today. However it never gave me the opportunity to pay $99 for the extra stuff even though I picked that option... WTF
Mine was processed and approved, just waiting on shipping.
Oh. And before anyone asks...once you make your selection of what gift you want (the $99 bundle or the free Gear VR) you CANNOT and I repeat CANNOT change it. Choose wisely.
Submitted via the store app yesterday and just got approved. This went a lot quicker than the S7 promo.

I did on the Samsung website on Thursday and it has already shipped with an estimated delivery for Tuesday. I bought the $99 bundle.
Submitted the 19th , got approved the 20th, shipped the 21st, used the app to submit. If I check the app it still says under review. But the website it shows approved gift sent. I would check the website instead of the app.
Edit: it was for the free vr. Not the 99$ package.
Is there anyway I can receive the $99 bundle its crazy how fast it's sold out..
For those who have had theirs ship did you order the $99 bundle with it?
Just got confirmation From UPS Saying my Gear VR Will be here tomorrow.... I Live in Canada did not get Confirmation Email..... Just seen many people worried they were not getting there's so i thought I would post to show that I got mine to Show that they Are sending them, seems about as fast as my Gear Fit 2 I got with my Note 7..... Shouldn't be more than 2 weeks for the rest of you Hopefullt. Have you Guys Got your Headset yet or still waiting?
That's good. I applied on the 19th. Got approval email on 21st. Ordered shortly after. Got a confirmation email receipt of payment and order number by noon on 21st. Then they sold out that afternoon. My bank has not been charged yet though and I have not received shipping notification.

I'm not completely worried about not getting it, except for the fact that I continually see people who registered after me who keep getting tracking numbers and I haven't heard a peep. Unless they can block fedex or ups from showing me labels have been created, they haven't even made a label yet.
after the mess of people trying to pay for the $99 bundle (of which I paid AND the charges cleared...not pending...cleared) it's starting to get a little worrisome to see so many people ahead of me.
I don't care to wait, dont care if it takes 6 weeks, but somehow being way after others who registered after me is weird.
