Amazon essential phone order canceled!! - Essential Phone Questions & Answers

After pre ordering my essential phone on the first day possible, i have been checking my order status just about 5 times a day. About an hour ago i couldn't see my order anymore, after calling Amazon freaking out they told me that my order was canceled due to them not receiving any inventory from Essential! I advise an Amazon pre orders to check immediately!

Already being reported on Twitter, Reddit, etc.

This phone is turning out to be a disaster...

Old news. It was back in Amazon since yesterday.

Amazon prime
I ordered one from Amazon as a Prime customer a few days ago for the UK.
Then discovered they had cancelled my order due to the reason given in a previous post above.
Then today I received a $120 courtesy credit fom Amazon as an apology from them.
So I've re-ordered today, which now means my taxes to import to the UK are paid for.
Very nice ?

Seen this on slick deals. The description isnt to um.. descriptive but 399.99 fs for the quad core 16 gig isn't bad deal. Its item number 280989923496.
Seller has decent feedback.

It says no returns BUT it says "but is covered by eBay buyers protection".
I have no use for it, or I'd likely order one myself. I already own a T-Mobile one.

As mentioned earlier in the thread (and indicated by the delayed shipping) it's likely he does not have the product and has a connection of some sort.
The listing ended.......

hmm, I have to take that back. He's only had 11 reviews as a seller.
I wonder if he racked up all that positive feedback and decided to try and make some money.

Attention to All Buyers:
We have experienced high volume of sales, we are expecting our warehouse to deliver to our location by Friday or early next week. 1-2 Days after delivery buyers will be notified with shipping information for their product. There is also another shipment coming in the following Friday or Monday so for those who do not receive tracking information please be patient as we are following in the order of purchase. Funds will be preserved until shipment is made. Please remember our 10 day handling time listed in the auction, this is just a reminder for all buyers. We kindly thank you for your business and patience. We will stick our our described time for handling and delivery. We are able to give such good prices due to uniquely designed infrastructure that saves in production and transportation, as such your patience is greatly appreciated. If anything changes we will send out updates to all buyers. To ensure your product if you have not made payment please do so.

For those that rolled the dice, make sure you are not more than 45 days from when payment was made as that is the time limit to file a claim with Paypal. With the "additional time" mentioned in the post above for them to receive the phones, plus the 10 days of handling time by them.... I would keep an eye on 45 days from when payment was made.
If you paid by credit card through Paypal you may have additional protection through your CC company.
I'm willing to bet money that this is a scam....

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!

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?

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?

HTC Let's Talk Pathetic service

If you have been the victims of the pathetic service provided by HTC Let's Talk USA please vote or describe your situation in this thread.
What a terrible thread.
Sent from my HTC One
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

I hated the curved edges on the N7. That's not a feature I will ever like. I also hated worrying we might never get root which obviously I am still in that position with my Sprint V20. I do worry a bit about the longevity of this v20. Hopefully it will last the normal 2 year life cycle of my sammy's although my N4 didn't make it a year.
Im 4000 something

Tmobile sending early

Just thought I'd let everybody know that the T-Mobile kids are starting to get their shipping notifications. Hopefully everybody else will follow suit. Fingers crossed.
Shipping or processing notices? I've only seen /received the processing order notice.
Some carriers like to send packed confirmations to cut calls to their center...does anyone have shipping with tracking confirmation? That's what counts.
sike!
false hype and no need for a second thread.
these things aint shipping this early... maybe if they are coming from overseas...
They seem to be marked as shipped but date is still the same 9/13 - 9/15 from what ive seen.. I wouldn't get your hopes up
They are probably doing what they did with the Note 7. They charge and create the label a couple weeks beforehand. I wouldn't get too excited.
Yep, just a tease...
i know this is a tmobile thread but .. ATT states Sept. 5th ... but I'll be expecting 10th -12th
