Never buying anything from them ever.
I had placed total 4 orders through them. Only 1 went smoothly. They cancelled my first order. Then they sent phone even after cancellation of order more than 20 days after cancellation and without informing me charged for cancelled order.
2 Other orders were put on back order when website clearly mentioned item in Stock. Took almost 5 hours on phone to even get the single order that I got.
If htc does not change or offers alternate source for direct full price purchase, I am simply not going to buy.
This launch has been a fiasco.
From my Galaxy S4, in your face.....

Most threads are pretty pointless on here really but just buy from a supplier who will support you when things go wrong.

Yup, you could always buy from a trusted phone manufacturer like Samsung who sell you a 16GB phone like the S4 with only around half available for storage. In your face with lots of storage from an HTC One

Ah there is always that one who will bring up the phone when it has nothing to do with it. Fanboy hostility just because that message was posted from sgs4. Lol.
This is about let's talk. I wanted developer edition. It was that or nothing. And we had just 1 source to buy it. If you had been checking the threads I already got mine, and I love it. But it was nightmare process with 4 times the credit being stuck for almost a month.

Not a fanboy, had more devices in the past 24 months than you've probably had hot dinners

A thread like this provides nothing but a trollfest. If you have a problem with HTC, contact them, but stop trolling in this forum.
To add to that, the thread is off-topic to HTC One.

Sprint CDMA Epic 4g Touch (SGS2) $219

Anyone looking for a Sprint E4GT on the cheap you can get for $219 or $209 with "CowBoom10" coupon for first time buyers:
http://www.cowboom.com/product/929485
Note: These are pre-owned and sometimes could have Bad ESN. However they do have a 30 return policy if you get a dud.
FYI - this will not work on GSM networks, it is a CDMA phone.
Has anyone bought one of these or from this website before? Seems a little too good to be true

Damn it!!!! I just paid $319

Cowboom is owned by bestbuy I believe it sells the returns and refurbs
I haven't bought from them before but they are a best buy brand (just look at the site logo, or go to the about us page).
However I did want to put up the warning about the ESN's because I have heard that this site doesn't call Sprint/whoever to verify each phone is clean. They do have a "hassle free 30 day return policy" so if you get a bad one you are only out the time.
I ordered one myself and am excited to get it. I figure if its bad I will return. And for what these sell for 2nd hand feel like its a pretty darn good deal ($222 shipped).

Of course not! The seller has no feedback and probably intended the price to be $350, not $35.
Somebody should purchase one and see if they can get it for 35 dollars

I contacted the seller and im waiting for him to respond. bbut i really think its not legit, even though I wasnt it to be!
Joined on 9/11 with 0 feedback and selling more than $3500 in hardware (more than ten available) Too risky for me.

Thank you! Your order has been placed.
Your payment is currently being processed. Remember, your item will be shipped after the seller receives payment.
F-it. If it's fake, I'll put a case in with PayPal. If it's legit, my wife just got a new phone (I already have the S3) and we're both happy. I was literally just looking at T-Mobile to upgrade her line when I saw this thread lol.
I read the description several times over, it doesn't have anything sketchy in it.
I'm thinking the guy might have screwed up and meant to put $350 CD, not $35. It's either that, or they're fake.
Wow I just saw this post and I'm like : what if it's a mistake and I have to act quickly ?
What if it's a fake and maybe paypal won't give me my money back ?
And if it's a mistake , this poor guy just lost number of sales * 325$ ... should I make it number of sales +1 ? ^^
Anyway if it's a mistake he'll rather pay you back than send it , so I guess this isn't worth a try for me
Hope I won't regret it , but thanks for sharing

Will do man.
He's sold 90 of the 99 available.
If these are fake and he's running a scam, he'll clear $4000 probably with those 99 units lol.
Can't wait until tomorrow to find out if these clear payment and ship or I get a message saying it was a mistake. If it does ship, it's a waiting game until it gets here to see if it's legit
Or you could just do what I did, commit to buy one and don't pay. Wait for other people to confirm receipt and then pay. He probably won't open an unpaid item case anyway, and if he does, you can just talk to him before actually paying him or stall for more time.
Just bought one. Why not? Paid and all.
If it doesn't pan out, PayPal aggressively sides with the buyer. We will get our money back, guaranteed, if something is fishy.
Fun!
hmm it says gsm with LTE connectivity and a verizon logo on it and 32gb memory storage
I made a commitment to buy 99th one!
Please post here if shipping begins....

Yeah, it's a sloppy spec cut and paste from the Verizon version. The listing clearly says GSM though. If, by some miracle, it arrives and is Verizon, I'll open a dispute with PayPal or just verify a clean ESN and sell locally for a little dough. Win-win.

Orders from p4u

Thought I'd start a thread for orders from p4u! Has anyone heard anything?
Apparently sites such as Amazon etc are starting to confirm that HTC has In fact delayed the release of the phone. Still not 100% but it's looking certain that it probably won't be in our hands this week :'( I was planning on going in store and picking it up this Friday by upgrading my contract, seems like I won't be able to do that if the dates are true!
Sent from my Desire HD using xda premium
Ordered last Friday and still not even received my confirmation email
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
I asked yesterday (using the "Live Chat" facility on their website) if my order was still due for delivery on the 15th and the guy said it was. When I checked earlier today, they were still advertising the phone as "order today for delivery on 15/03". So, grounds for optimism, I think.
I have been bombarding them every day as sad as it may sound but the sooner I get rid of this BB the better!
the same answer as been given to me time and time again and that is if there is a delay, a text and email will be sent out and also the website will be updated to reflect that.
Still the 15th far as I know. Don't know if it deserved a thread though dude mwilky check your spam...mine was in spam folder?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
Pre-ordered mine a couple of weeks ago and today full payment has been taken from my account. I was expecting this... so somethings being processed.
full payment means did you order Pay as you or contract? what date did u placed order?
Just posted on this on another thread.
Not sure if this helps or is relevant but i called up phones4u today to confirm the cancellation of my order which was done over the weekend and the lady said "are you phoning up to cancel because there is no stock?" to which I just said no just wished to cancel and wanted to know if it had all gone through.
There is no point asking them coz they don't have exact answer about delivery or delayed because this things are out of their working or knowledge area they can inform you only those things which they have written on their computer screen, they will never answer about delay or delivery, I asked many times through different sources like Email, Over the phone, in-store but they don't know anything about it but one thing is sure that they will get stock on 13 or 14th then they start deliver for 15th as they promised, delayed only caused by delivery companies like Royalmail or whatever they choose to deliver due to high numbers of destination but don't expect delay more than 1-2 days
I advise people don't waste time looking or asking about it as HTC clearly mention on their official website that There is no problem or delay for UK region if any delay or short supply they will publish or inform through their website and P4U also inform buyers through email if any delay in processing
hope this will helpful anyone who's worried about their orders

Also would like to know what offer you guys got/took from P4u and what free goodies they promised to give? what tariff price plan? which colour you choose?

Mobile Phones Direct

For anyone who ordered their HTC One from MobilePhonesDirect, I received this update today:
"We are waiting for volume confirmation from HTC early next week.
Due to the bank holiday period we are unable to get firm dates on the deliveries of the HTC One in both colours.
We aim to send out an update email to all pre order customers by Wednesday of next week, 3rd April 2013.
We apologise that there has been an unforeseen delay due to HTC postponing the release of the handset in any large volume.
Mobile Phones Direct will be back in touch next Wednesday as mentioned above."
So it looks like we wont see deliveries until next week,

I anticipated as much anyway. Thanks for the update mate. I never got this email.
Just for info. I cancelled my deal with these as there was in identical deal with affordable mobile who were charging around £15 cheaper for the upfront phone purchase. When I phoned them to see if they would match it they said no. I said screw you and went somewhere else. Be worth checking as both were advertising through uSwitch.

Mines bought now. Good deal either way. As long as mine turns up with no gaps and works well, I'm happy.
I will certainly be visually inspecting it physically before I even turn it on and I won't be inserting the sim card immediately either.

When I placed my order at MPD, it was 60 up front, 26 a month x 24 months, 500 min unltd texts, unltd data.
I got the same deal at Affordable Mobiles except for 30 up front and I also get the Media link(value around 50pounds) free. So saved 30 and a free media link. I am certainly not complaining with that. Cannot bring myself to pay more than that a month for a phone, no matter how good it is.

Same here. I paid 40 quid , and will be 26 a month. Ultd txt net and 500 mins. T Mobile.
I'm happy with that tbh. I'm gonna see if mine comes next week.
A note to all. When you get your phone , BEFORE you turn it on physically check it over and then try turning it on without sim card in. You will be in better position to return if your handset is dodgy.
Good point. After all the posts I have read so far, I will certainly be giving my phone the Once over before it is turned on. Really hope the guy I spoke to at Affordable mobiles was correct when saying that they would be delivered next week(now this week) as all the major carriers were now sorted out. I last release device I got was the Original Desire. It is nice to get them when released if for the right price( like the One).

They say that you shouldnt put sim in till after youve fully checked the device over. It stops the retailers from having any qualms about you returning it.
Just an update. Mobile Phones Direct on their site, now state, " Order now for next working day delivery ".
So this seems promising. I hope.

Indeed that's a hopeful sign my pre-order from February 25th for a Silver HTC One might just be soon on its way. My last email contact from them said stock arriving Tuesday 2nd April for delivery 3rd April. I certainly hope so because otherwise what is the point of pre-ordering when it seems you can walk into any P4U or 3 shop and pick them up. I have had enough of watching all the video reviews now! Lets get it in my hands!

Agreed, and will do, although last year I bought an XPlay from dial a phone and ended up sending back 3 phones because of a constant reboot issue and they did not once question it(within the 28 days) I ended up with my E3D as a result because I could not be without a phone. Good decision because I love my E3D. I won't have an issue at all sending it back if it is not right. It makes it much easier that it will be bought online as you have more rights of return.

My last contact from MobilephonesDirect was today, when it seems they replied to my query with a copy n paste jobbie ( See below )
Dear Carl
We are waiting for volume confirmation from HTC this week
Due to the bank holiday period we are unable to get firm dates on the deliveries of the HTC One in both colours.
We aim to send out an update email to all pre order customers by Wednesday 3rd April 2013.
We apologise that there has been an unforeseen delay due to HTC postponing the release of the handset in any large volume.
Mobile Phones Direct will be back in touch on Wednesday as mentioned above.
Kind Regards
I don't think there would be many issues with sending a phone back if it developed a fault ( even if you put Sim card in ) but, I do remember seeing messages on the internet from various people complaining that retailers such as MPD / affordable mobiles and Dialaphone, have been very difficult with regards to people sending their handsets back after it messed up in a couple of weeks or so.
Something on the lines of " They said i cant send it back because when i put the sim in i agreed to their contract " Blaa Blaa Blaaa.
I'm a bit more savvy myself and would just lay down the rules and quote references from the sales of good act here in the UK or what ever it is. Shops tend to sh!t themselves when you bring out the big guns lol. But some people DO try it on.
I've pre-ordered a silver one myself. Hoping it comes in good working order.

Indeed that's a hopeful sign my pre-order from February 25th for a Silver HTC One might just be soon on its way. My last email contact from them said stock arriving Tuesday 2nd April for delivery 3rd April. I certainly hope so because otherwise what is the point of pre-ordering when it seems you can walk into any P4U or 3 shop and pick them up. I have had enough of watching all the video reviews now! Lets get it in my hands!

Hey Vizzy. I spoke to them on Thursday last week to confirm my media link(was not mentioned when going through with the deal online) and then asked them when delivery would take place. The gut said that they would be getting them on Tuesday and delivering either next day or day after so we should receive them Thursday/friday. Holding thumbs it is before the weekend so I can spend some quality time with it over the weekend.

Am I the only one who can't find a black HTC on affordable mobiles ? I go through uswitch it says black, then on the site it goes to silver ..... Looking at the T-Mobile 26pound tariff.

HTC Hot Deals 11/11 - $300 HTC One, who nabbed one?

I can happily say I'll be back in the HTC One family as soon as mine ships! I managed to nab a $300 Developer edition HTC One, really excited about getting it
I'm currently back on a Nexus 5 to try Lollipop, but I'm selling it as soon as the One hits my doorstep.
Did anyone else take advantage of this sale? It wasn't as alluring as grabbing the new Nexus 9 at $199 (which, for the record, d move to do on 24 hours after releasing it), but it was still a great deal for anyone looking for a flagship phone at (probably) less than half price.
I already got a T-Mobile M8. And I was able to nab a glacier silver unlocked edition. For 299 lol. No nexus 6 for me
I got one for the sole purpose of making a profit by selling it, considering that I already have an m8 that I bought at $800 when it first came out!
Got one - I assume, the page crashed when I submitted my order, but got the order email and they charged my card, I to have the nexus 5, not sure which one I'll keep, pass the other down to my son.
Depends on which has better audio ?

Yeah I'm actually on the exact same boat right now with the nexus 5. Overall the HTC is a better phone (hardware wise - especially audio-wise, for both recording and output). There's obviously more profit to be had by just selling the One in-box though.
I've had the One before, it's an awesome phone. It just got a little too banged up without a case/skin so I traded it in. Letters came off and all that - I just never said anything in the forum. Definitely not making that mistake again though; I'm putting a thin case or skin on it.
I think I've come to the realization that even better than having the "best" or newest phone (I.e. nexus 6 or 6 plus or Note 4), is having gotten one of the best deals. So, good-enough value trumps newness. Maybe, maybe not. We'll see.
Thank you for ordering on HTC. Unfortunately, one or more of the products you ordered is currently out of stock and could not be shipped. The product(s) has been placed on backorder and will be shipped as soon as stock becomes available. You will receive another email notification when your order has actually shipped.

Yep, good to go on that front
Did u check your order status online?

What an awesome deal man.

Damn it I still have no tracking number yet. I got an unlocked version. I hope mine didn't get backordered
I hope yours congress through. I bought a refurbed one m8 for 390 and it was in crap shape and I returned it... So happy this deal popped up cause it's new, the Dev edition and 100 dollars cheaper.
