Hiya guys,
This thread is mostly for Dutch people. Any one that has some experience with studentmobiel.nl and getting contracts there?
I'm interested in the SGS II, but I'm not sure if I should get my contract at this website, because I don't know anything about it.
So if you could tell me your expriences with them, I would appreciate it!
Thanks,
Vuuyi
Hi,
I bought the SGS i9000 from them last September SIM free. No problems. Delivered on time.
It seems that their site would rather you bought it with a contract.
The URL you want is this:
(replace hxxp with http)
hxxp://www.studentmobiel.nl/gsmshop/product/8596/samsung-i9100-galaxy-s-ii?plan_id=129&provider_id=5
By the way, the phone is not avilable on their site until the 31st of May:
aankoop voor 31 mei 2011, woonadres in NL.
Belsimple.nl have a 5-7 working day delay.
It was released in Holland last Monday, apparently. High street shops ought to have it in by this Monday. We shall see.
Can't say that I have much experience dealing with this shop before, but I ordered my SGS2 there and they seem to be doing their job well; I messed up the contact I send them and they called me right away and everything (sending new contract + signing + sending + receiving) was fixed in minutes.
Also, Studentmobiel.nl are a pretty well known and it's a 'big' site/company so I don't think you have anything to worry about.
studentmobiel.nl is affiliated with gsmwijzer.nl also a well known web site (cary sama homeadress)
ordered my galaxy there last monday and still waiting on it. They have had quite some pre-orders i heard
I also ordered my SGS2 there...
Although the order status still is on waiting for approval from provider...
So they have the contracts but they aren't approved yet...
Hopefully it will go alright
Can't say I'm too surprised, but can a company be more ambiguous about a release?
Many sources are claiming that it will release on Sunday 9/18. I've called 3 different local att stores and my answers ranged from never heard of it to we are restaging our store on Sunday 9/18 for some new phones but the SGS II is not part of it
Commercials on TV are everywhere, Sprint customers already have their hands on it and we(ATT customers) are left with "coming soon" without even a concrete release date.
The phone is already on the verge of being late to the party(been out since May globally) so come on AT&T, and give us some information that is worth something!
Botched? AT&T will release whenever and still sell a ton. Only people like you and me really care when the release date is.
I just called att sales and and they gave me the same old story about keep checking online. I pushed the issue about wanting to talk to a supervisor since I have heard that the stores are stocking them as we speak. He came back on and said he talked to his store manager (confused here as when you call sales they connect you to a store?) and then said his manager confirmed that they are stocking them in the stores but STILL could not give a release date. He said that could mean a few days or a week/s until they receive the release date. I said sprint came out with it today. I also asked about pre-order and he said they are not taking pre-orders. I am JUST AS frustrated as you on this whole fing matter. Just give us a REAL TRUE RELEASE DATE. I am GLAD that I never run att software and don't rely on them for it to be released ever. Well I guess we will see on Sunday. I will probably stop by a local att store today also and push them for info. I will be back once I am able to during my lunch break.

(1) It's AT&T
(2) It's not an Apple product.
Regardless how much potential GS2 can be, AT&T simply won't give a s**t because it will never sell as many as iPhone 5 can be.
Best friend works for AT&T and they haven't got them in stock yet. They haven't heard a release date yet either. I can say that seeing sprint release it has me EXTREMELY anxious for this damned thing on AT&T. He knows how much I want this phone and is going to let me know as soon as they get it in stock.
Okay I am calling MANY ATT stores local to me (at least I have about 18 local stores that I am in the process of calling now. I will continue to update this post whenever I get a chance. I am listing the phone number, whether they say if/when the release date is, whether they say the do/don't have it IN STORE NOW. So far this is the first couple I have called:
EDIT: I called alot of the local att stores and listed them all below. Kind of bummed that none other than 1 said with good confirmation that they hadn't heard of a release yet. Some that say possibly Saturday said that that USUALLY before a phone is released they will get inventory the day before. I had let them know that I had spoken to 611 earlier which told me stores were starting to get stock today for either this Sunday 18th or next Sunday (which was TRUE from my conversation with 611). So I guess ONLY Sunday we will NO FOR SURE one way or another...I had also mentioned what the 1 store told me that they had them. Sorry but I am so excited and upset with the not hearing anything from att.

Same thing happened with the release of the Captivate, T-Mobile got it first on a Thursday and rumors were that AT&T were releasing it that Sunday, no official announcement just a rumor. Went to AT&T that Saturday to ask about it and they said they only had cases for it but wouldn't expect it for another week, went across the street to Best Buy and they had it in stock!!!! Bought it and went back to AT&T with the Captivate in hand and asked to buy the case LOL.
Hopefully I'll have such luck tomorrow, if not then I'll be patient and get it Sunday, but if it's not out then Sprint may have my service!
Its botched because they are a couple of days behind sprint?
The international version has been available for months if you have deep enough pockets.
If you can only afford a subsidized phone, keep waiting.
This is the captivate forum btw. If you bought a captivate on release or since then that line isn't eligible for an upgrade yet anyway.

Speak for yourself. I got a Captivate less than a year ago and I'm eligible for an upgrade.
Same here actually Shammyh.
And don't forget that THIS phone is being released this weekend. They could be referring to this phone if they don't know the difference:

Well he meant the regular users without a special plan. I bought my Captivate in July 2010but i used my wife's upgrade Contract..... my Captivate Died on Weds so I was forced to use my Mother-inlaw's contract. That is the only reason I have the ability to upgrade to the SGS II if released on Sunday. Other than that I would have 6 more months to wait.
I bought the Captivate, July 17, 2010, I have been eligible for an upgrade since July 18, 2011, YMMV.

I bought mine in september '10 and I'm not eligible for an upgrade until may of '12. What I'm gonna do though is use an upgrade from another line on my plan. This way I can get the gs2 now and have the option for the prime or even gs3 next year.

Well I got a bit more bad news for us waiting for the S2 on ATT. I just came back from my local Radioshack and a Samsung rep was there. He told me specifically that the Galaxy S II will be launched on AT&T in early to mid OCTOBER!! WTF
I may wait a few more months and see what comes out by the end of the year, they shouldn't have waited to release this on ATT this long!
Ok so at&t giving special treatment to some customers and giving them more than 1 upgrade per line every 2 years is just one more reason to dislike them as a carrier.
Why does at&t not give me special treatment? I have 4 lines on my family plan and also u-verse tv service.
Playing favorites is a sure way to piss some customers off.

Thank god I decided to import my phone a week before the first announcement lol. That is just too long of a wait already without having any concrete dates. Makes me wonder if they are really holding it out to be sure it competes with something.
Poor americans. Drunk on credit, heading for a cliff, with the corporate greedheads telling you keep going they've got the GPS heading locked in. Guy above is probably right too with the comments about apple having interests it needs to protect. System is clearly broken. Dunno how, but the volk in europe are getting closer to pushing reboot. For that matter, we all gotta flash a new kernel, yellow triangle be damned!
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.

This is what they told me over the phone too that they've never heard of the note.

Sad. They're required to learn about it. We've had information on it in our systems since late January I think.
So in the morning I finally get to get my Note. I'll be upgrading from an HTC Inspire. Couple of strange things to note, and a question.
I read that the Note was suppose to go public on the 18th, So I decided to call my local AT&T store and see if they had it in stock. She said yep, but they were not allowed to sell them until the 20th. After hanging up with the store, I go online and AT&T still had it listed under pre-order, but when I added it to my cart, it said it would ship the 16th, which really confused me. I decided to go in the morning to the store and just get it and skip the delay.
Question: Coming from the HTC Inspire, What would you guys recommend I do to the phone upon getting it? I guess root is obvious, what else?
Thanks!
Edit: I just realized I joined a year ago when I got the Inspire, I am a tech junky I admit it...
Hi guys,
This thread belongs to any discussion from our ever growing community of Samsung users from NZ to celebrate the new SGN-7.
I had my prying eyes on this device since its launch on 3rd August at 3.30 am and was hell bent on getting it. Was a bit impatient though with all the wait of 16 days until it got released. Those days were spent mainly searching for a good pre-order plan from either of our popular network providers - which were quite tempting. I wanted a Blue Coral one to begin with but since it was limited to some regions in the globe (Pretty sad that our bottom island wasn't one of them!), I finally ended getting the premium Black Onyx.
Its beautifully carved and gives a good aesthetic feel in the hands. Everyone knows what it has in store but the first look is remarkable.
Waiting for your reviews!!!!
Did any of you guys got the recall pack?
I got mine last night. It had a complimentary Samsung J5, sim adapter, a form to fill in and a prepaid courier bag addressed to Samsung, Northcote. Last time when I spoke to a rep, she told me the new devices should be in within 3 weeks.
Boo!
Just picked up my replacement from Spark now. The J5 was ok, but this is way better. Happy again
Just a heads up for Spark customer waiting for replacement Note 7 , I just been to the LynnMall Newlynn branch tonight and found out that they now got on stock replacement Note7s although they are not selling it yet to new customer. The spark sale person can't tell me when it will be relaunched in NZ. Hopefully this will be happening in the next couple of weeks!

i got my replacement yesterday from Spark. rooted that *****, slapped TWRP on top and Flashed Dr Ketan Rom straight away, as one does running like a champ.
So, recalled again. What are you guys going to do?
Think I'm going back to the S7 edge
Yup recalled again, Note 7 discontinued for good. I exchanged mine for an iPhone 7 Plus yesterday. Dad went with an s7 edge. Sad story really.

Did you guys see this:
"The company teamed up with carriers in New Zealand to announce Friday that it will cut off access to wireless networks for customers still using their Galaxy Note 7 devices. Starting November 18, customers still using the Note 7 will no longer be able to connect to any New Zealand mobile network to make calls, use data or send SMS messages."
