Date you ordered and received the phone vs. "will ship by" date

Hello, All.

I've been lurking around this forum almost since I ordered my DInc 6/22 online. Due to a mishap involving my palm centro and a cup of coffee, I've been using my husband's old motorola Q. You. Have. No idea how much I NEED that DInc!

So...according to an email I received from VW, my ship-by date is 7/20. I'm so hoping it will be earlier than that. Don't think I could have gotten through the last few weeks with you guys. I've already started calling 611. :)

I got my shipping information last night...

Ordered 6/17 over the phone
est. ship date 7/15
actual Ship date Jul 12, 2010
Estimated delivery - Jul 14, 2010 by 7:00 PM

Unless I read it wrong it was phones that were supposed to SHIP by 6/28 that were pushed back. Not phones ORDERED before then (6/28). Could be wrong though but I remember reading the word ship not order. I ordered 6/14 and never received one or got a notification I was gonna get one.


I think you read right. When I was on the phone with verizon last week (dial *611 and then pressed "0") the guy told me that if my order is delivered late then I would get a $25 gift card. I'm pretty sure he said this applied to all customers right now, however, the deliveries are coming in early so I'm not worried!

Just wanted to post this just in case someone else here does happen to get a late shipment... call verizon and ask for a gift card! It doesn't hurt to ask and the worst they can say is sorry, no.

Well great, just great. Up until today I just had to refresh this thread over and over.

Now that a lot of 6/18's and a 6/19 went out, I am now calling 611 and doing the Fed Ex trick over and over again.

I'm not going to get anything useful done until I get my shipping notification. Then I probably won't get anything done for a couple of days after receiving it because I will be too busy playing with the phone!

This phone might ruin my life. My social life, at least.

Agarygirl,

I am so with you, except one day behind. I started calling 611 yesterday, can't ever be too careful right? We can agonize through the next week or so together.

Unnecessary calls to customer service bugging the hell out of them - 0

I've called twice so far, and both times the person on the other end of the phone was just as excited as anyone in this thread because they too had DIncs. As soon as I mentioned my order for a DInc they started rambling about how awesome the phone is. :D Once I talked to Don, and then Stacy on another day. lol

Woo Hoo!! Congrats Jen!

So what are the odds you are going to get an ounce of sleep tonight? ;)

LOL, I wouldn't bet on much sleep tonight! Unfortunately there wasn't much of that the past two nights, wondering if FedEx was going to deliver or not. All the 6/18's rolling and I expect to see your excited post coming really soon:D
