    The date in the google play store has changed to 7th of Feb for me, I ordered on the 31st. Did this happen to anybody else?

    Hate to be the bearer of bad news, but this happened to me the last time I ordered about a day before mine was cancelled.

    Was there a long wait between the date changing and the cancellation email? At this stage I wouldn't mind too much if it was cancelled, I'd rather just know what the story was so I could think about ordering it elsewhere.

    EDIT: Just saw that you said a day, oops

    Parcelmotel account has been debited :D

    Going by other's experiences that means I should have it in the morning

    Emm... hope I'm not the bearer of bad news...

    My Parcel Motel account was debited by 3.50 today. Neither of my two google orders looks to be anywhere near shipping, so I suspect that this has nothing to do with a Nexus 4 arriving at my PM address. (I've never used PM for anything else.) But I don't know what it *could* be, unless it's just a glitch in PM's system.

    Has anyone else seen an *unexpected* debit on their PM account today?

    Means its on the way.. Tracking system is useless

    Big change from my HTC Desire :D (Must update my sig :o)

    Screen feels and looks amazing. I have one minor complaint - The bezel is unnecessarily big in my opinion. Could have put in capacitive buttons instead of on screen buttons.

    The official bumper is really nice as well. :D

    Thinking of ordering this from the US. Girlfriends family is from US, so can pick it up when going over to visit them in a few months.

    Still stuck on pending after a week. Hard to say it's not becoming annoying at this stage.

    After ordering 1st Feb, just got email today it's shipped! :)
    Was new UK gmail, PM address for both delivery and billing.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10 colmpb


    Ordered on 3/2/13, tunnel bear method with new uk gmail and parcel motel delivery address. In google wallet order has been stuck at pre-order stage since then with a shipping estimate of 2-3 weeks. I sent an email this eve to playstore support asking if they could give any update on why the order was stuck at pre-order since then, and if they could give any kind of revised shipping date, got this reply:

    " Orders are shipped based on the estimate in your order confirmation email. Once an order has been processed you'll receive a second ship confirmation email with your tracking number. It may take 24 hours for the package tracking to return any information for your tracking number.

    If you have not received a package tracking number after the time quoted in your order confirmation email, please let us know.rding to our records, your order should ship by the evening of 21-02-2013.

    For more information on shipping and delivery, please see this article in our help center: http://support.google.com/googleplay/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=2411789."

    Looks like I'm in this for the long haul!!

    At the very least you're entitled to a refund. Only sell it if you get more than you paid for it.

    Hello,

    The specialist has replied to my consult and assures me that your order is processing normally and should be delivered within your estimated shipping time frame of 1-2 weeks. Therefore, since you ordered it on January 30th, you should receive your device no later than February 13th.

    I hope I have addressed all of your concerns and if you have any additional questions please feel free to contact us at 855.83.NEXUS or
    googleplay-support@gmail.com.

    Thank You,

    Google Support Team

    So the delay has nothing to do with payment or questions outstanding on that front for me. As long as payment goes through I'm all set for a delivery by Wednesday. Happy days.

    Same here mate, we probably won't get it till Monday or Tuesday. It's gonna be a long weekend......

    Ordered mine last night using existing gmail account and added new PM (has Parcel Motel now claimed the PM acronym from Private Message ? :D ) address to existing Credit Card. All looked ok except for my CC company declined it due to recent activity :mad:

    Rang them and got it sorted and as I re-ordered, I noticed I had originally been ordering the 8gb by mistake, so I reordered a 16gb one and got a load of emails.....Had to try cancel the 8gb one and then got mail saying that was successful but am not sure what I will get if anything...:eek:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,699 ✭✭✭advertsfox


    Just ordered my Nexus 4 8GB (got 100GB of Drive space already) with my PM address using my mate in works UK registered Visa Debit card - now the waiting game ;)

    I also order an Xtreme Guard screen protector for front and back of mine. Currently on sale at 70% off.

    If anyone has used or seen an Zagg InvisiShield before - It's similar to that but not quite as rubbery to touch as a Zagg.

    Also far cheaper. Haven't tried it with the bumper yet though.

    Cool! New Parcel motel features!! Not sure I like the pics!!

    Ordered yesterday, used PM as shipping and billing address, AIB Visa, my normal gmail account. Just got an email saying it shipped! I actually kinda can't believe it :D

    Was assuming i'd be waiting a couple of weeks so in no rush for it. (I say that now, I'll prolly be checking my for a PM debit every 5 mins on Monday :D )

    Edit - just to add that I didn't ring AIB to get the PM address added to the card or anything like that.
