950XL Waiting Room

[tuxedo323]

Figures. The store just opened so I gave them a call, and they said... "well.... we have them, but we can't sell them until 6pm tomorrow, so see you then!"

Hard to believe we are being penalized for ordering in store as opposed to online.

Cerritos shopping Center, southern Cal

I called the Glendale Galleria in So Cal, and they wouldn't release it either! I, too, am pissed.

I'm hoping it's because they just opened. I'm calling the Century City location now.

The story I got was they will sell it to me (pre-order) the moment their POS recognizes the SKU. They said it looks about 50-50 that some stores can ring it up and others can't. It's a heck of a story if it is just a cover. lol

Well at least you got more than the glazed over look I got.

Well guys as of 40 minutes ago I am officially no longer part of the "Waiting Room" :smile:

UPS delivered my 950XL. I do have to say the box looked banged up. Now off to setup the phone....

I'm standing in the store now setting the phone up! The eagle has landed!

Has anyone inquired at the Bellevue, WA store regarding whether they're selling right now?

 

[geekladyemjay]

So my voicemail wasn't working at all. I am chatting with ATT she is adding voicemail and trying to provision for VVM. I see some are not permitted to purchase today. When mine was first scanned I heard her radio that she couldn't find the POS or something like that. But she eventually got the purchase through. There was another guy getting his actually the first person. I guess since we got emails they were prepared.

 

[tuxedo323]

So happy for all you guys who have competent MS store managers. Congrats

Congrats! Which store?

 

[geekladyemjay]

No VVM. From att chat...
Erik: Unfortunately since the device wasnt supported orignially by at&t it would not be able to support VVM. I do apologize about this. -

MusicMan where have you been!?

 

[snakebitten]

Well, just got an email stating the SKU is recognized now and that my 950XL White masterpiece is waiting to meet its new daddy.

Heading out of the office and going to the MALL. (I hate malls. What is wrong with me today?

 

[Ben Schmidt1]

I was going to wait until a refurbished one showed up online to get it cheaper... but the last time I did that with my Icon, I had so many issues that I promised never to get another used phone.

Now I'm waiting for a phone like a girl waiting for a Justin Bieber concert. The worst part is, I know the store has it, and I can't do anything about it until tomorrow.

Good excuse to leave Thanksgiving dinner early to buy a new phone. So there's that.

Great, now I have to babysit and constantly refresh my email all day. Knowing my luck, I'll get the notification at 8:45pm.

Or blow it up.

And as I just got thru explaining to Homeland Security, I mean blow it up like a balloon.

Ups delivered mine this morning just before noon. This thing is thin and light! Restored a backup and got most of the apps downloaded, out and about now...

Oh yeah, it is dual sim FWIW.

 

[HoosierDaddy]

I'm home with mine. Tried to set it up at the store but forgot you can't restore without entering a code they email you.

I'm with AT&T, and no VVM is a deal breaker for me. Can someone confirm, if it in fact does not work? Thanks in advance.
