Well everyone it's been a fun ride following this thread. now that i got my sgs3 its time to move on to another thread. see you guys on the other side "hopefully real soon"
I just connected to the store via the 800 number. No idea if there's a payment plan :/ I had gotten the first and they said there were 8 left.
They had a ton of programming issues too but figured it out. Something about entering the Samsung only code then the rest its supposed to be normal. Took over an hour.
Hello everyone! Ive been following this post and I must say you guys are funny. been waiting with all of you to this SGS3 to be released but i don't think I can get one anytime soon . I just went on the metropcs website. It seems billfloat is no longer an option to purchase a phone. I was on the website 2 days ago and it was there. Does anyone know if it will come back??
on the billing page, you choose more time to pay and billfloat will pop up

Man I feel the sadness for you bro, I would of killed them if they said something like oh it sold out literally. The salesperson was awesome lol he was dying to activate the phone and he is going to secretly get the phone from a dealer since metro employees are not allowed to get the phone for the first week.
Yes,!!! This its my new honey...lol! They only had the white (exactly what I wanted)!!!
You may want to go back tomorrow if you were referring to the 6 Mile & Middlebelt store when you posted about getting your phone. As soon as you said you got yours in Livonia. I went to that location and bought mine. They said I was the 2nd person to buy one and tried to charge me 549 and change. I told them it should be 543.94 after taxes and the upgrade fee and she said "Oh, you're right. I don't know why it's trying to charge you $5 for the ICC Card(something like that). Let me take that off." Then she looked at another employee and said "We charged that girl $5 too much by mistake" So if you still have your receipt and want that 5 bucks, they'll give it to you. If you don't care about it, enjoy!

Don't worry guys I will be with you till you guys get the phone. Well technically I bought the phone but I don't have it. So I will share the excitement with you guys. Too bad you guys have to wait more

Wow what's worst having not purchased it yet or buying it but not being able to use it cause you don't have it with you. For me personally it would kill me more knowing I actually bought it and can't use it. hahaha
I called my local store few minutes ago, thinking they received it yesterday while I was going to work (afternoon), and they said "no" :/ tomorrow or Tuesday the latest. Blahh!
So... seeing as my brain is obviously not functioning today (some of you may know why ),
anyone can help me by letting me know which metroPCS location has the store available today (sunday 10/21)?
I've tried Hiawassee corp ---> NO
Sand Lake ----> NO
S Kirkman by Regions bank ---> No answer
S Kirkman by Wal-mart i don't have the phone number for
I'm not gonna try the Best Buy location, that'd be silly...
Hello, I have been looking into this phone and I plan on getting it. However, I have a ZTE agent on metro and want to transfer my number and account to the SG3. How easy is it to activate/transfer my account to it? I don't want anyone else touching the phone first than me. I read a few post ago that there were programming issues? How can I activate the phone myself?

Dial *490 on the SGS3 and tell them that you want to change phones. You'll have to give your number and the name on the account and your security code (which should be your birthday) and they will program the SGS3 over the air. Make sure you call from the SGS3 though...

Try some stores in apopka my friend said he called some over there because he was curious & yea they had them
I got one for me and my wife. I'm going to be selling my s3 for Sprint this week due to the note 2 launching Thursday. I installed cm10 on mine, going to look into aokp soon too. Might look into overclocking it while I'm at it.
