My local BB is taking preorders on it, but they could not give me a definite answer they'll have it on Sunday. Best bet is to call your local B&M stores on Friday/Saturday to see if they've got a shipment
I reserved one at a local Best Buy mobile in the mall of all things on the 25th. Funny thing the receipt says I can pick it up on the 25th but that's a computer error. The sales rep said they will be there this Sunday.
It will be available Sunday.
Local att store opens at 9. I will be there at 830.

One of our local Costcos says their system has it for sale on Sunday, but they didn't receive any yet.
Best Buy has limited units

I just pre-ordered mine this morning from the store here in Sacramento.
$50 minimum.
Had five or six locked up on his "Online-Order" Shelf.
Scanned one of them for my order.
I'm getting it for the $199 price since I'm OK for an upgrade.
Maybe better if I can provide evidence of a better deal.
I made several calls this morning to the local AT&T stores.
None had any stock, but could order for me.
Parrot was not expecting any until November.
If your in a hurry, then I'd suggest either Best-Buy pre-order or Direct online order.
Good luck everyone and happy Androiding....
Hey guys, so I've been to three AT&T stores, and called 611 multiple times trying to pre order this phone. I can't do it online because of my upgrade date, which is 10 days after the phone comes out. So I am stuck and can't pre order it.
Do you guys think that AT&T will have the phone in stock on launch day? It comes out on a Sunday and my local store opens at 11 on sunday. If i go there when they open I should be able to pick one up right?
I know there are many AT&T employees on here, so I am just wondering.
When I got my iphone 4, I was able to get it from AT&T on their launch day without having to pre order. I just walked in and they took my name down and had me come back in 3 hours when the phone arrived and I was able to get it.
I have doubts that this phone will sell as much as the iphone, so its a pretty safe bet that I can walk in and pick up the white version of the phone right? Or should I keep trying to call and pre order. The 2 day difference is no big deal for me, and I am worried about pre-ordering and having it get delayed, and actually getting the phone a week later.
Just call 611 and talk to orders and service and describe slowly everything , you can do it, I was in the same boat as you,

Plus when you pre order it, you get that two extra days

If you are due for the upgrade on the 29th, you're fine.
As long as you're in the same calendar month as your upgrade.
Just do it in a store and pre order there.
My upgrade date was the 29th of this month as well and I was able to go to the store and do the upgrade. Just hang in there...some of the stores are either unwilling or more likely...not aware of how to place the order itself.
But the issue of the upgrade not until the 29th is something that they all should know how to override (and will).
Good Luck!

at corp stores, im pretty sure they let you upgrade if you are within 4 weeks from your upgrade date, the can override the upgrade date,so in your case you should be fine, not sure why they aren't letting you upgrade. btw my friend upgraded for 299, his eligibility was 14 days after.he did it online dho. but in any case im pretty sure you will be able tp pick up one on or after launch date,if not,therz always bestbuy.. best of luck!
The problem with the upgrade is getting it online. Its only letting me get it by adding a new line.
But like I said, I can't do it in the stores because I have been to three of the corporate stores in my area, and giving them the SKU numbers, they are still not able to pre order it because it is not in their systems.
Ive talked to two different people on 611 and they said the same thing. Its no problem to override the date, however, the phone is not in the system.
I will try calling in again today.
EDIT:
Just called 611.
Same thing, not in the system, cant do anything about it. He said he cant enter the SKU number, and that it only shows phones that ship now.
But he did try really hard to get me to upgrade my home TV and internet service.
This is some terrible customer service, if I didn't upgrade a line on my account 2 months ago, id be thinking of going to Verizon.
In the meantime I will just wait for release and hope they have it in stock.
They should have it at every corprate store , the numbers will nit be that much.
I'm not sure where you guys live, but I called the fourth AT&T store 30 miles away, and they also said its online only
Idk I guess the AT&T stores here are bad

I asked the day before pre-orders started and the AT&T employee told me that the best information is online and she had no idea what's a Galaxy Note
Dang . . . when I walked in the girl said "How can I help you today?"
"Yea, I'd like to do a preorder for an upgrade on one of my lines."
"Oh, ok, for the Note right? I can help you right over here."

Actually they released an alert less than a week ago saying not to override any Feb 29th upgrades because it was a leap year system glitch. It is really supposed to be March 1st upgrade eligible. So unless you get a rep who doesn't pay attention and read notices, then you won't always get lucky and get an override.

It's prob just an assumption lol... The note is the only phone we can preorder right now, so it kinda makes it easy to assume.

Sad. They're required to learn about it. We've had information on it in our systems since late January I think.
Ordered from best buy the day before att allowed pre orders. Talked to them yesterday and they got phones in but not mine. They said they are getting them in order of when they were ordered and they have already received 100 of them. All I van say is that there is no way I wasn't one of the first 10 people to order, never mind 100.
Anyway now they can't tell me how long until it comes in, said it could be tomorrow or in a month. Shoulld I just order from att now or wait? How long will it take for me to get one from att? I don't know what to do.
Wait a week, if you don't have your phone from BB then grab one in store from AT&T, that or call local shops to see when they get theirs in store, because if you already paid off your pre-order to BB then the refund/reset process wont be pretty.
I call BS on them getting 100 in already. No way. I'd do what the above post said, just wait until Thursday when AT&T is supposed to have them in store. I just placed an order over the phone with AT&T on Friday, but we'll see if it gets here before Thursday. Not sure if it will...

There is a guy in the Best Buy thread who can help you. First find out what store# you preordered from (will be on your preorder agreement and/or your receipt) and post in the thread asking if he can look it up for you. He can see how many they have on hand, on order and when they'll arrive. His name is driftr319.

Pretty much....you can cancel your preorder with them and return your GC for a full refund with no problems, if you so choose. If they give you a hard time, speak to a manager and show them the verbiage on the preorder agreement you have where it states exactly that.

Yep, so much for that idea
Word on the street is that the new in-store launch date for AT&T is 6.28.12. I doubt stock levels are gonna be very high so if your intention is on getting one same day I'd suggest you get there as close to opening as you can. Same for Best Buy and other retail locations.
I can look at how many each bby store has and his many they have in order if you pm me with the store number
I would also like to add that bby has ****ty systems that aren't always accurate
Sent from my Samsung Infuse
I ordered just last Friday 6/22 and have a delivery date of 7/2 (A week from this Monday) Via Amazon. $150 shipped and no sales tax -
If you dont have a conclusive response by this wednesday I would kill the order and look elsewhere -
Seriously, I have been a loyal AT&T customer for OVER 10 years, with 5 phone lines and 1 data only line (paying almost $400/mo) and this time, I almost told then to "GO F*** OFF!!"
Back story: First, the news that the 920 was releasing was released in September. In October, we found out that AT&T was able to get an exclusive for 6 months on the device. We also had the WP8 release event from Microsoft. November, AT&T FINALLY releases pricing for the 920 and a release date. No news on Pre-Order availability until it was a few days from release date.
Now, AT&T did such a HORRIBLE job on educating their own customer service reps, that I almost just gave up.
1. I tried to pre-order online, but since I have a corporate discount on my account, I had to go through their Enterprise Portal and pre-order was blanked out so I could no do it.
2. I thought I would be sly and order it by phone. Everything went well until the rep told me it was $199.99... I choked and told her "No Thanks"!
3. I went into the store when it opened (Wed Nov 7). Rep there didn't even know pre-orders were being accepted but after much assuring by me and looking in her computer, she started my order. After finishing she GUARANTEED me it would arrive by Friday, that is what the computer was telling her.
Friday comes and my phone is still in "Processing" state. I called to get an update and I was told it was being processed and would ship soon. In other words, she had no freaking clue.
I bash AT&T on FB and get a text from a rep from my store asking me what's up. We text for a while and come to find out that it may take a week or more for my phone to ship. The original rep should have told me that, but no, set my expectations really high to get smashed.
After looking over my order some more, he finds out that my free charging pad was not added to my order, so now I have to go BACK and get that fixed.
To make it worse, the availability of the phone in AT&T stores has been lackluster at best. I'm talking most only are getting 3 devices in Black, Red and/or White for sale. All other colors have to be ordered.
Oh, they are not even letting people in line waiting to get one know that they are out of stock, instead, they are letting them stay there waiting for an hour+ at a time to tell them they have none, but then try to sell them on a S3, Note 2 or an iPhone 5.
So, where did AT&T drop the ball? Hell, if you read up and also what others around the country have been saying, they pretty much dropped it everywhere they could, and even in some placed you didn't think they could!
I'm going to wait out for my Yellow 920. I am going to get over all this eventually, but all I can tell you know is, if I ever go to pre-order a phone from AT&T and am told it will arrive on launch date, it will be in writing and someone will pay for it if it falls through.
If you plan to go to a store and wait in a "line" for this phone, just go up and ask over someone shoulder to see if they even have one.
Agreed. I preordered my red 920 on the 7th, was guaranteed that it would arrive by the 9th. Now being told it won't even ship for another "week or two". Being told that it was first come first serve, but I know people who preordered on the 8th received their phones on the 9th as promised. Very annoyed by all of this, honestly.
I learned a long time ago not to preorder from AT&T except in store. I have yet to in the stores on morning/mid day or even early afternoon of a release day device and not be able to get one. Now I live in Maine so obviously that is a lot easier than if you live in a big city or what not.
2 Stores near me got plenty of Note II's, 8X's and 920's. The one I chose to go to had the 10 black 920s, 10 white, and 5 red. No Yellow or Cyan.
The last time I preordered online I got my phone about a week after release, even though the devices were in stock at the store.
I preordered both the iPhone 3gs and 4 in store and they were both there release morning.
in store...

I preordered in store early Wednesday and am still waiting, so this is no sure fix. I also am not getting the charger and will have to return to the store to argue about it. I did have the option of shipping the phone to the store, which considering the store had it in stock on Friday would have been a better idea this time since even if my phone wasn't there I would have just taken one of the ones they had. As preordered Lumia 900s that were shipped directly arrived before the models in store, how would you have guessed? Certainly AT&T botched this release in the US.
Damn unfortunate . I ordered a 920 Cyan thru Att premier on Nov 8 and got it today Nov 10. They shipped it overnight instead of 2 day :good:

The bigger question is why in the name off all things good and holy are you paying AT&T so much money? Switch to Straight Talk and pay half of that for four lines, and that includes all-you-can-eat minutes/text/data?
I'm confused, why are you paying so much??
My family plan with 5 lines and 4 out of the 5 have 3GB data and we're only paying $250 a month.
AT&T stores are having issues with the amount of L920 they are getting in stores. The store I went to only had 1 nokia in stock which was in black. Couple other stores in the area had maybe 2-3 in stock. Maybe none.
I avoided the whole pre-order nonsense and
took a chance that I would get the phone by getting in line at the store Friday morning. I have pre-ordered before and had a similar experience and will never do it again. All in all, I was able to get the phone Friday after waiting in line outside the store for 30 mins. and once I got inside the store, about an hour.

I have a similar story, but mine was worked out so I actually received my phone today via FedEx and I will never order another device where they have to deliver it. I went online after mid-night to try and order the device, but everything it kept trying to charge me an extra $150 for the charging plate and the $100 which was to drop the phone to $99. So I called ATT and the first rep couldn't tell what was going on and chalked it up to me being a corporate account user. So I had to call back the next day and waste another hour on the phone with a corporate rep who finally told me to just order it and they would credit it back after the fact - what part of stupid, do I look? So I wasted an hour on phone before work and called back at Lunch to find out that I had a code which showed my service plan wasn't compatible with the offer, and that they needed to update it. So I wait for a supervisor, explain my situation for the third or fourth time and get cut off before she can correct the freaking problem. I finally call back and speak to gentlemen by the name of Jose, who walks me to through, count them, 4 transfers before we get back into the corporate account section and a darling young lady sets the code correctly to reflect a current voice and data plan compatible with the offer and I immediately am able to order the phone on their website. This is the afternoon of the 7th of November. They process my order, it gets sent out to FedEx and of course, two day deliver doesn't mean a hill of beans to them. I see a status that it was picked up the morning of 8 November and estimated for delivery on 12 November. So I go through the entire weekend without a new toy to play with; but no biggie, I got the phone and charging plate after being told by ATT that the plate was on backorder. SO I AM NOW HAPPY. If I could only get my wireless hotspot, all would be golden.

I pay more because I am on an Enterprise Unlimited Data Plan (means no throttling, EVER) with all 5 lines and a few of the devices have insurance.
Strait Talk is out of the question because of the plan stipulations and level of service I would lose with those plans over the Enterprise service.
As for an update. Nope, still no phone and still no word on when it will ship.
Latest update other than it not shipping:
Ok, when I pre-ordered, I ordered the phone and a charging STAND. What ended up happening is, they placed the order for my PHONE and a charging PAD (after corporate discount, it was $25). When I questioned why my FREE pad was not on my order, come to find out they ordered the phone and I PAID for the free pad. So they fixed that, then I placed the order for my stand and it was $37 after corporate discount..
I hate AT&T!

No email from Best Buy regarding my G3 for Verizon. Supposed to be released today 7/17 but website now says Release Date: To be announced.
Called my local store and they have confirmed they do not have any g3s nor have any information on their arrival. I would just go to a Verizon store but I have a 50 dollar gift card that I can apply towards the G3!.
Post any information you may have collected or heard.

I didn't get an email today either but I went into Best Buy this afternoon anyways. I just handed the guy my pre-order paperwork and said "I'm here to pick up and activate my Verizon G3". The guy said "oh I think they're still in the back, they just came off the truck". Sure enough, he came back with it and I'm typing this on it now. I'm not sure if they weren't sopposed to give it to me or not but I figured I'd give it a shot. I still haven't gotten the email from Best Buy either. You might get lucky if you go in and just act like you got the email. Good luck!

Interesting. Maybe their just a little late getting to California stores....
The Best Buy stores in my area received them today (the 17th). We received the AT&T and Sprint ones a little ahead of the release but the Verizon ones we recieved day of. Give it a day or so and they will have them if they don't already. I don't know how the email system works, but it might indeed be worth it to walk in and ask.
Seems like the bigger city stores got them but not the smaller cities. I called my local store, Ames, IA and they said Des moines had some but theirs were still on order.
I got this email today:

Interesting. It doesn't look like everyone has received these emails. When did you place your order? Mine was first thing in the morning on 7/11 and AFAIK they didn't have the pre-order available on 7/10 like VZW, so I'm fairly confident I'm one of the first folks that pre-ordered. A rep I spoke with did confirm that they're going to ship in the order in which the orders were placed, so maybe there's some sort of issue where they realized they don't have enough stock to cover all pre-orders and are send emails to folks who ordered after some cutoff time? Another possible thought might be that if you pre-ordered and had one of the expedited shipping options (i.e. your expected delivery was yesterday or today) and they knew they weren't going to meet the estimated time they sent the email?
All speculation of course hinging on my hope that I might see a new phone in the next 4 weeks.

I got the same e-mail yesterday and am very frustrated. I did my pre-order on the morning of 7/12. I'm debating if I should just walk into a store and see what happens....

Look like store availability is running on the site. Might what to check your location.
I think they are all screwed up over there. Has anyone tried to order and have the phone shipped to home? I keep getting that the shipping option is not available on the Verizon model. I went into the store yesterday and ask about Shipping and they said that this phone would have to be activated in the store.
Getting absolutely nowhere with BB support. Judging by the twitter conversation I had with them, it doesn't look like they've started shipping any devices at all, with no estimate on when they'll start.
Since we're all on here twiddling our thumbs until they give us something to chew on, anyone care to share when they pre-ordered and whether they've received a delay email?

You may want to check with your local Best Buy because I just checked a little bit ago on the website and it shows that my small local Best Buy has them now. It showed that they weren't available this morning.

Specifically had it shipped to avoid having a best buy employee activate the phone and kill my UDP.

Just received a call from a BB rep saying they won't be able to ship the LG G3 for "a couple of months."

HAHAHAHAHAHA! I'm not laughing at you, I'm laughing at Best Buy for thinking that's correct and laughing at that employee for having to make that phone call. They are just asking for it.
I just went into my local best buy and they didn't even know they had them in the storage shelves right behind them. I had to tell the guy the phone came out yesterday and then he checked for it. I didn't get to use the $50 upgrade promotion but they did let me use the $50 towards accessories like a screen protector, case, and audio aux cable. Loving the phone so far.
Had a pre order with Amazon.got an email this morning saying delay this delay that sorry wah wah. Cancelled order went on best buy website. Paid for replacement device(full price) got my your pickup is ready email. Typing from my amazing g3. Best buy chick was on top of it. Even have ne me the option for her to activate it or me at home. I said. Me (duh). Popped SIM in as soon as I was in the car. The rest is history. I did pay more at best buy but I call it a(I want my device now) fee.

We have Verizon LG G3 in Washington DC BBC ?
I am still waiting for my 10th Of July preorder from Verizon not BestBuy.
Amazon, UDP, $400 Activation Fee
Wonder if you go with Amazon and perform sim swap trick to maintain UDP, would you be hit with the $400 fee for not activating it Amazon's way? Given the delays with BB, I'm almost tempted to take a shot with Amazon but wouldn't necessarily want to get hit with an extra $400 for not following their directions. Any experiences buying phones off Amazon but maintaining UDP with sim trick?
Went to best buy and upgraded with Verizon edge and they gave me a 100$ gift card. They had a 24 inch 1080p TV for 120. So I got the TV for 30$ put the door ..glad I upgraded
