Nexus 4 ordering process

Cool, I'll take a look. Any keywords you can suggest to make it easier to search through the thread? I've read quite a few pages over the last week and haven't come across it.

I sent them an email just now and I'm hoping they can provide more details. I specifically asked for a human reply. It's probably a wasted effort but at this point, there's nothing to lose. But if my order was not cancelled, I'd probably say nothing to them in order to keep unwanted attention away.

The HTC One is a great phone but not at a great price. To be honest, I can't justify spending €500-600 on a phone and I don't want to get into a contract, either. There are much better things you could spend €500+ on, but that's me (hmmm...new PC parts...?). The Nexus 4 is superb for the price and I'm sure you'll get your hands on one very soon, one way or another.

Why go to so much trouble?
Ebay or Amazon sell them - they're not that exorbitantly priced either.

On any given day Amazon have a £50 to £60 premium on the Nexus 4 and Ebay is even worse.

Don't know about you but i'd prefer to save 4% with flubit rather than pay an extra 20%.

Hi,

I ordered a Nexus 10 on friday using all the advice on Boards but i received two emails this morning:
one from Google Wallet saying:
"Thank you for using Google Wallet. In an ongoing effort to provide a safe purchasing environment, Google reviews orders on a regular basis.
It appears that you have created multiple accounts in order to take advantage of our current promotion. However, creating accounts in this manner is not allowed under the terms of this promotion. As a result, we have suspended your account and its associated transactions. You may continue to make purchases with your original Google Wallet account at this time.
The promotion terms were developed to ensure a positive user experience for everyone. If your account use continues not to comply with these terms, you may not be eligible to make purchases through Google Wallet in the future. "
and the second from Google Play:
"Google Inc. has cancelled your order. You have not been charged.
This order was likely canceled for one of the following reasons:
Details provided for your credit card do not match those on-file with your financial institution.
The address information provided was incomplete and could not be verified.
To block an attempt to purchase more than the maximum allowable devices.
Please visit Google Wallet to verify or update your account information. Be sure that your full billing address is complete and matches those on file with your financial institution or credit card company.
For further information, please visit our help center, or call us at 1-888-4UNEXUS."

What i want to ask is:
1. Are people living in Ireland not allowed to purchase from Google Play? What i mean is i used Tunnelbear to make it look like i was a UK user so that i could complete the order. When i contact Google Support regarding the cancelled order & suspended Wallet account do i have to pretend i live in the UK?

2. What documents do i have to send to unsuspend my Google Wallet account? and again do i have to hide the fact that i live in Ireland?

3. When contacting Google should i be using Tunnelbear?

Thanks!!

Thanks for your reply marwys, maybe that could be it but what do i do now?

By the way i phoned my bank (BOI) this morning - i had added the PM address as a delivery address on my BOI Mastercard last friday - and they told me that if somebody phoned up BOI to check the address all would have been fine but if they use some automated process to check then the Northern addresses can show up as "incomplete address".

I'm worried now as my Wallet account has been suspended and i don't know how much information i can give them when i contact them with the problem.

so how does flubit work?
it looks like they dont sell to Ireland, so do you have to use Tunnelbear?

what link do you put in, the google play link?

is it a trustworthy site?

Use parcel motel but you don't need to use tunnelbear, you can purchase from an Irish IP address.

Seems to be very trustworthy with lots of customers.

just wondering how flubit can find the nexus 10 or nexus 4 cheaper than Google Play...
Amazon is at least £50-£60 dearer.
I presume Flubit sell a brand new product in a sealed box? if so how could it be cheaper than on Google Play?
Is there a catch?

Buying power, agree to buy large number and get a discount then pass a part of that discount on to the customer. Good feedback brings more to buy from them and rinse and repeat.

I'd understand that but for the fact that Amazon's buying power makes Flubit's look like an inverted micro-penis version of buying power.

I'm the same a week and I haven't heard a thing. Might fire off an email.

Yes as I got the same email on two separate occasions followed the next day by the account suspended and order canceled emails

mine was on pre-order since the 16th. i got tired of it and ordered the second one yesterday.
today they both changed to "Your purchase is processing".
and now it says - ships by march 19 (the order from 16th) and ships by 28th (yesterday's order).
wonder what's gonna happen next
