Firstly I'd just like to state I'm not trying to gain sympathy or anything of the sort, just sharing an experience and to gain feedback on what you would do in my position (I appreciate this post may be long so appreciate the patience).
Just like many of you I sat at home and eagerly awaited the launch, as soon as it happened, I tried a million times, like yourselves to get it into the basket and checkout to no avail. Then with some twist of fate I managed to cart it and inputted my details and sent off the payment. The order went through but then said that my bank had declined the payment. Called the bank, thought it was fraudulent, they cleared it within minutes if not seconds, in the Google wallet transaction screen it said I had 7 days to update otherwise my order would be cancelled so I thought I was safe.
I received 2 emails, instantaneously of one another, one stating "You've made a purchase on Google Play. You will not be charged until your order has been shipped." The other stating "Your purchase from Google Play has been cancelled. Any charges made will be refunded."
I repeat these emails were sent at the EXACT same time. So I called up Google to be on the safe side after updating my card details and this is where it starts to get fuzzy. They stated that the order had been cancelled and there was nothing they could do. I asked to speak to a manager after taking down the persons name (who in fairness was trying to be helpful), so I spoke to his manager "Deon", Deon proceeded to tell me the exact same, that there was nothing they could do other than recommend placing another order for one, even though they had all sold out by this time. Deon told me that he would get back to me after he spoke to his supervisor who wasn't at the office for another 5 hours. I agreed to wait for his email, but I asked for his surname because I have no idea how many Deons there are working there...When I asked he stuttered and repeated my question back to me....I confirmed that I wanted his surname to which he said "Ok sir, one moment" and after a few seconds the line went dead.
When I go on to the google system to find out where my order is, it says
"Orders are shipped within two business days of placing your order, and will be delivered upon two additional business days of processing.
According to our records, your order should ship by the evening of 15-11-2012."
Which just adds further to the frustration and confusion. I spoke to another gentlemen on the phone after spending roughly £8.40 in phone calls to them from my mobile phone, who said he'd escalate this matter further.
I noted that Google are regulated by the Financial Services Authority and whether it would be worth going to the Financial Ombudsman, however I'd have to wait 8 weeks for them to attempt to resolve it before i can do that.
Any feedback would be great, and if you made it this far and read it all I greatly appreciate your time. If you just skipped here, the jist of what I'm saying is, google have screwed me royally, what would you do?
I think you just need to wait for Google to get it together in your case. There has been a lot of confusion with order statuses. I guess you will know for sure when Google gets back to you, or when you receive your tablet.
Thanks for your reply drcujo, it is just weird that others had the same problem and didn't have their orders cancelled.
Well if I recieve a tablet tomorrow I'd be extremely surprised considerin I've not recieved any email stating any tracking information or anything remotely of the sort. I can keep my fingers crossed eh?
After about 35 minutes of trying to order my N10 (right when they got released, with a million errors), it finally allowed me to complete the purchase.
I was getting worried because of how long it took to get a confirmation email from Google, but it finally showed up 38 minutes after the purchase. My bank account has already been charged, and a quick phone call with Google (Google Wallet) has assured me that my purchase will not be cancelled and my tablet will ship out Thursday November 15th with 2-day Saturday delivery. I'm not sure who he talked to, but I was on hold for like 2-3 minutes while he looked up the info for me.
I seem to have been one of the lucky ones though, even with all the errors and delays in emails. I have heard MANY complaints of people receiving cancellation emails, or getting errors telling them that they were already sold out.
You can call the Google Wallet team at 1-855-492-5538 (in the US). They can answer your questions quickly.

Hey Harfainx, I live in the UK and it would cost me a fortune (maybe a nexus 10 worth, ha!) just to call them on that number. I called them and they confirmed it was cancelled. I'm extremely disappointed as I needed this for multiple projects at university and had an oppurtunity to duplicate my order but put my faith in google, last mistake I will be making with them. I would hate to have to give my money to apple, I'm anti apple tbh.
Thanks for your reply though!
Hey Araam,
I was one of the lucky ones and my order went through, I ended up with a duplicate order for my n10 and my card was declined like yours. It seems weird that they would cancel your order so quickly though? I didn't realise for at least an hour after I had placed my order and they never cancelled mine.
I was able to cancel the duplicate order this morning though, so I do hope you are successful in getting one, there must be others who were able to cancel theirs too!

Yeh thats what gets me, why did they cancel it so fast :/ I really hope someone has a spare one that I can buy for a not so extortionate price. Its starting to approach a time where I may need to buy an iPad which I'd hate to do. As flawed as apple are, their customer service, from my past experience, is much, much better than what I've experienced with Google thus far. I hope I'm wrong and they sort all this out, however I have recieved an email from Google Wallet which reads -
Hello Araam,
Thanks for your email.
An attempt to charge your credit/debit card for 398.99 GBP failed on 13 Nov 2012 because the bank that issued your card declined the transaction. To ensure the privacy and security of your personal information, banks do not disclose details of credit card declines to third parties, such as Google Wallet. For more information about why your card was declined, we recommend contacting your card-issuing bank representative.
As a result of the failed charge attempt, your Google Order #(number omitted) was cancelled. It isn't possible to reinstate cancelled orders; however, if you'd still like to purchase the items in your cancelled order, you can visit Google Play and re-order after updating your payment information. Steps to update card details are given at https://support.google.com/wallet/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=29072. Note that you must login to your Google Wallet account on a computer using your Google Wallet account login and personal password to edit your card details.
Common tips for troubleshooting payment declines are available at https://support.google.com/wallet/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=43068&topic=8954&ctx=topic
If you have any additional questions, please reply to this email and I'll be happy to help.
Thanks,
Stephen

What I don't understand is why they cancelled it so quickly. They don't charge your card until it's shipped, I know they must put some kind of a charge on the card but they don't actually take payment until they send it right?
I reckon after the weekend when everyone who managed to get one, they'll have a better idea of how many they have left in stock so you might be able to grab one then. I have no idea if they're going on ebay yet..
The same thing happened to me the first time I tried to order, card was declined, received automated phone call from bank and then I cleared the transaction. I also received the 2 emails about the 7 days and the cancellation at the same time. I checked Google Wallet which said my order was cancelled and that the money would not be debited, so I placed another order as it was still in stock luckily.
I wish I would have re-ordered when it was still in stock. Such a let down, I can't really describe how annoyed I am with Google right now.
Google Play Store Can Be Horrible
My experience with the Google Play Store had been horrible. I bought a Nexus 7 and they sent me a defective one. The tablet they sent me to exchange the defective unit was also defective, so I requested for a refund. It took 20 calls from me to Google to get my money back about 5 weeks after I shipped them the device back. Yes, 5 weeks. They provide the worse service in the industry. It feels like they have to escalate everything to get anything done and are the best excuse makers. They really need to learn how to run a store.

Thanks for your reply ComputerGeek, its service like that, that makes me feel like that I will need to refer them to the FSA regulators through the financial ombudsman service as their google wallet service is regulated by them. Unfortunately the downfall is that you have to wait 8 weeks in total for them to resolve your problem before you can report the problem.
The 16GB is still showing as in stock here in the US. With the price you were going to pay (399.98 GBP,) it is way more expensive where you are than here. That price comes out to $633.65 USD.
Could you try accessing the US Play store web page and buying it from there and having it ship over the pond to you? Also I'm not sure if there are any differences from the US version to the EU version.
I'm not sure how trusting you are, but if you still can't get your hands on one and would be comfortable with the 16GB one... Maybe we can work something out to where I purchase it and send it your way (it cost me $413 USD to get mine shipped two day shipping to me.) That would only be about 261 GBP, plus whatever the cost is for shipping to you. If you want to PM me your address, I can stop by UPS tomorrow to get an estimate for you (I happen to pass one on the way to work.)
I wouldn't be looking to make money, I would only want to collect the amount that it costs me to buy and ship it. Let me know what you think.

Thanks Harfainx, I've tried to get on to the US website and ship it over to no avail. The kindness you show still gives me hope that I may still see a nexus 10 before the year is out. I was hoping to get the 32GB version but beggers cannot be choosers as the saying goes. I have sent you a PM and your assistance is very much appreciated.

Personally I think you are blowing this way out of proportion. After reading threads like these I feel sorry for everyone who works at google.
You are saying you are going to refer google to your financial regulator because your bank declined your credit card purchase? You should call your bank, find out why they thought it was fraudulent, and then re-purchase when you can.
You aren't out any money. The problem is with your bank anyway. There isn't anything google can do. If you really have a bone to pick, call your bank and complain. They will probably give you the reason it was declined.
Looks like you are stuck finding it in a store, buying it off google when it comes back in stock, or finding one somewhere else online. If you want one before the end of the year, I would be very very surprised if the N10 stays out of stock for long. When I tried to buy the N7, it was out of stock shortly after release and I managed to order one within a week of release.
You guys need to relax. This that, I'm going to buy an iPad, this that some more. Really? Is this community filled with impatient internet lawyers?
Mine still says pending but there's a thing called patience. If you've placed an order it will come eventually. If you haven't - wait until it's available to purchase again.
No one could have predicted that THIS many people wanted the Nexus 10. Especially given how little advertisement of it there was. If you've paid for your tablet, it'll get to you eventually. Google can't take your money and not deliver a product. So just be patient...it's only been, what, 36 hours since the launch and people are behaving like it's been 2 months since they've ordered this device and they're being given the runaround; which isn't the case.
Good luck everyone.
If you read my actual post I stated very clearly I spoke to my bank, my bone that you like to talk about is with the fact that the mislead me, the fact that they cancelled my order within minutes not the hours that other people got, the fact that in their guidelines it clearly states not to duplicate orders, and because i followed this it resulted in me not having a tablet.
Sorry you feel I'm being harsh but my bank cleared the mess up in minutes where as Google keep spinning me lies.

I, like you, also made multiple attempts to purchase the Nexus 10 through Google Play the morning of November 13th. Finally, after multiple attempts from my Razr Max, I picked up with my wifes iphone and was able to have order completed. Five minutes prior to attending a funeral, I get a call from an unfamiliar 800 number which I let go to voicemail. With two minutes left, I listen to voicemail...hear the words--your bank...fraud, and I immediately back out of google voice and call the 800 number back. I get a voice prompt stating possible fraud activiity is suspected on my account and to prove otherwise, I will need to verify the last two purchases, one from google and another made the night before. I confirmed the two purchases, hung up, and raced into the chapel to bid my farewells.
Shortly after the service, I cheched my phone and had received confirmation from google wallert that my order had gone through. I've not checked for shipping and am merely holding out for shipping date of Nov 15th. I waited from Nov 2011 to February 2012 to get my TF201...3-4 days for Nexus 10 is a cakewalk.
Google does debit a small amount from all acc****s upon order. I suspect this was attempted on your account, and for what ever reason, your bank would not allow the charge, thus google cancelled the order entirely. I know it sucks and I wish you could enjoy your new pad this weekend, but it's not googles fault that your bank..or even mine for that matter..has its protective policies in place. Google merely answered the market when it couldn't sell to you. It cancelled your order and gave it to someone else.
You will get your 10 someday soon
Sorry you had trouble but stuff happens at times.
The playstore here still have them and the stores will have them soon too.You will have no problem getting one in a few days from somewhere.I don't think there will be a shortage of these available like the N7 was at launch.With it being much more costly they are not going to fly off shelves like the cheaper tabs.
And all of this is going to happen again when they go on sale again
Hello, I followed all the rules for my carrier (t-mobile), paid phone in full, bill in full, had service for 40+ days of active service and I have all the paperwork to prove it. After going in circles they finally sent me a email saying they are "unsuccessful in obtaining an unlock code for the given IMEI” after taking picture to prove that the IMEI is the correct one for the phone.
I contacted my bank (USAA) and told them what happened and they said if I could prove it, I had a valid claim. I sent them all the phone records, and emails. Email was where most of the clear proof was because of messages from t-mobile verifying I had done my part.
The bank tried to contact t-mobile and gave them 60 days to respond and they refused to respond to my bank. So the bank reversed the charges for the phone. Then t-mobile without hesitation sent a letter to Equifax, TransUnion, and Experian saying I didn’t pay my bill and creating a bill for the phone and sent it to collections. I’m still working on how to get legal help.
But in the meantime, I have a company taking advantage of their power and unjustifiably ruing my credit while I have a phone I can’t use for anything but a paper weight.
So can someone help me unlock this my phone?
I can provide all the proof I provided the bank for verification that I did everything I was suppose to do: purchased phone/paid if full, paid all phone bill and had uninterupted service for over 40 days, and made multiple attempts with t-mobile to get the phone unlocked just to have them tell me in the end....sorry we can’t find your unlock code.
Side note: Before it got to this point, I actually tried to cancel the service and return the phone 28 days after signing up for service. They said they would only refund the phone after I think 15 or 20 days. But I had been working with their tech support troubleshooting the phone and swapping sim cards to figure out why I didn’t have service anywhere in my neighborhood during that time. It had been less than 2 weeks since the last sim swap while trying to work with them. All they were doing was buying time so I could not return a phone I paid $500+ for at the time.
I got another piece of information from another forum that was a little late. Some customers of t-mobile that were aware of the problem t-mobile and other carriers were giving customers with unlocking their phone found the easiest way to get the unlock code was to tell the carrier they were going to use the phone overseas. Then the carrier wouldn’t think they were trying to switch to another service. Once they verified the customer met all the other requirements, they gave them the code and then they switched carriers.
But that information came to me too late. Plus, since I did everything I was supposed to do, why should I have to lie? Especially when people who know how to unlock phones are hesitant to do it. But carriers are still taking advantage of customers.

The Reason for the post
[quotemsg=14275745,0,312531]Sorry! It is against the rules to offer code or password help.[/quotemsg]
The board rules also state the reason why, and I have proof that I legally purchased the phone, I have a copy of the t-mobile agreement which states that I need uninterrupted service for 40 or more days before eligible for unlock, and as far as the rights agreement between the user and the carrier, the carrier indirectly violated their own agreement by pretending they could not find the unlock code after I followed all the rules requested to receive the unlock code. That is why USAA reversed the charges after getting all the verification and giving t-mobile a opportunity to respond.
So t-mobile took the path of least resistance. Instead of battling it out legally over the "terms of service" with my bank, they just defrauded my credit and left me to fight to get it fixed which has become a bigger financial problem than the cost of the phone.
So the request was with the "rules" in mind. Which is why I included in the post that I can provide all legal evidence that the phone was legally purchased, the carrier breached their own agreement, and I've done everything I know possible to correct the problem.
Another reference to the rules: you can verify ownership along with email communication's with t-mobile through full header/footer copies of emails which is what the bank did. And the bank statements from the bank as well as t-mobile in store purchase receipt verify purchase.
I don't see why you post as if you cannot understand why I am even reaching out to online communities after reading my original post.
[quotemsg=14275745,0,312531] Please contact the carrier.[/quotemsg]
Pretty obvious from my first post that has been done by myself and USAA Federal Saving Bank with no progress
Sorry, I cannot help with your unlocking query,
However, if you're ultimately unable to unlock the handset (or just want a change), the 1st gen Moto G might be a good option for a replacement for an i9100 (or any other S2). Buy it unlocked and sim-free not from a carrier or one of their partners/resellers.
Stock rom or custom rom. It is an affordable handset with very decent specs.
Just ordered one - Go Get It!
What was your expected delivery date.
Should give an idea for those waiting and ordered early for a top end time frame on when to expect theirs.

I just ordered like 20 mins back. It's in 'processing' status and it doesn't tell me expected shipping date.
I have another order 6p-32GB-graphite from google store that moved to pending status today.
So, can I go through the order/getting accepting for financing process and decide to not order at the last moment? I'm just curious what my payments would be.
Heard that ordering from huawei will not honor 50$ play credit and 50% off case. I'm sticking to my order from Google play . Shipping around Nov 26-29...sucks

I talked to the Huawei customer care and he said I can cancel my order at any point it time. But I guess that has to be before it ships.
Went this route this morning as well. When making the order for the Graphite 64GB all it told me is a "early November" shipping date. Since so new a order have to wait some to get a better date.
Just saw they have added 128GB models on the Huawei website in aluminum and graphite
Wait, why am I having to pay TAX when ordering it directly from Huawei who should be BASED in china?!?! that's some BS right there..
Still ordered a 128gb in aluminum... Before they are sold out of pre-orders too.. good reviews going up = more people buying. Rather have end of November then January.
No shipping to Canada , I am looking to order one ASAP

They also have the Graphite 128gb. I got one on there just in case the 64gb is not enough.

I ordered the 64gb through the Google Store, maybe I will use that for the 14 days until the other gets shipped.
Anybody know about the $50 google play credit. If you use it before you return it, then what? Do they charge you or do they take it off the refund?
Well I ordered a 128Gb had to approve the transaction with my cc company but the 2nd time the order went threw without issues.
Ordered the Graphite 128gb just now from Huawei.

Im in the middle of fraud hell trying to order from Huewai.
First my credit card rejected the transaction. Talked to them and got it cleared and they said it would allow the order next time. Of course by then, the one I wanted (Aluminum, 64GB) was OOS on the site.
Phone came back in stock later, attempted to place order again, rejected again. Called my credit card co (again) and they said everything should have worked....placed order on Huawei's site with the credit card people on the line....rejected on the site, credit card said its not them (they didnt get a transaction request)
Talked to Huawei's "oh sorry it looks like we have a fraud trigger on your account, we'll request it be removed and get back to within 24-48 hours". Of course, the phone is OOS (again) and now 24 hours later, no communication from them and I still cant order the phone.

This happened to me the first time I tried ordering 64gb on the site and I got a call telling them its not fraud. Tried yesterday and exactly the same thing even though my bank allowed it and for exact amount to. Tell me if you get anywhere with this please considering that site sucks for ordering.

Will do. I did a live chat with them today and confirmed their fraud alert is still intact on me and that they will get back to me within 24 to 48 hours (again)
Im not sure exactly how they flag it...if its mailing and/or billing address, name, etc. Ive tried with my wifes' name on our shared credit card and still got rejected so Im curious as to exactly what it might be.
EDIT: and of course now the Google site is OOS too which means I cant even order there.
Well your bank/credit card companies suck. I got a text message asking if this was fraud and replied no and then tried again. Was a 45 second process. Order still processing today. Just don't mash the order button. Try once then contact your bank or have verification text/email messages set up... Pretty easy if you use your brain and set this stuff up when setting up an account. Mashing all the buttons only work in mk2 or street fighter 2. Both old news....

Read closer, its not my bank that's causing the issue anymore....and my bank(s) were quick to resolve the issue that was on their side.
My Discover card sent me an email immediately after it was declined...I clicked the "secure message" link, logged in and cleared the transaction, but since it was declined there was no pending order from Huawei, Huawei just never let me finish checkout. MOST online places would allow it to check out THEN the credit card would contact me to approve/deny the transaction.
As further proof, I had the credit card co wait on the phone with me while I attempted to go through checkout again and it still got denied. Credit card co. saw no new transactions come from Huawei, so it HAS to be on Huawei's side. Further confirmation of THAT was when Huawei support did actually tell me I must be flagged in THEIR system and it would take 24-48 hours to get it resolved.
As far as using my brain, well, my brain tells me I should expect childish answers like that from XDA.
I wanted to register for the promotion and receive a free wireless charger but so far, they haven't even enabled registration on their promo website.
https://www.samsung.com/au/note8-wirelesscharger-offer
None of the links to the registration form actually work. The site says to register when you receive your device (which I have) but doesn't say that the registration will open on a certain date. The promo ends tonight but I can't see why they'd have to wait until the promo ends before opening up registrations.
Can anyone else access the registration form?
It is live now. But the form seems broken. The address lookup field...doesn't look up anything. So the form stays incomplete. I have tried with different browers and devices with the outcome the same.

I had the same issue. Did not work on my Firefox or Chrome. For some reason it worked fine on my wife's PC (firefox), with the address field popping out.
However...... Prepare for a nightmare.
I just wasted over an hour fighting with the website with issues, and then having Vodafone telling me to call Samsung, and Samsung telling me to call Vodafone. What a mess. The biggest issue comes from the Proof of purchase number. There isn't one.
The Proof of purchase receipt that I have scanned does not show it and Vodafone support says that they don't have a Proof of purchase number to give me, with the final verdict being to "just type in your account number". Seriously.
Next on the list is if I use the field "Previous note 7 owner" then the web page will refuse to load to the next page. It's screwed. Vodafone instructed me to say that I did NOT own a note 7 even though I actually did own one ...through Vodafone themselves. Now my form has gone through with seeming "false" information and both Vodafone and Samsung are claiming "it might be okay". Currently I have zero faith in this clustertruck.

I logged into My Vodafone and found a form to request the Proof of Purchase document. They'll send it to me via email in the next couple of days. Be interesting to see if this mythical "Proof of Purchase number" is on this document. If not, I can see both Samsung and Vodafone finding themselves in legal hot water over what appears to be a promotion that is impossible to actually redeem. If they make this too difficult, I'll put in a complaint to the ACCC as this kind of thing is illegal.
Just registered for my wireless charger this afternoon, w00t! Hopefully these don't take forever to confirm and ship like the S7 Gear VR's did. lol..
Has anyone that registered for the promo received any confirmation from Samsung? I asked Vodafone for a Proof of Purchase but it didn't have all of the information Samsung is demanding. I used it for my registration anyway as Vodafone don't provide any documentation that complies with Samsung's demands. I'm waiting to see if they accept it anyway. If they don't, I'll lodge a complaint against Samsung and Vodafone (because they advertised the promotion on their site) with the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC). Samsung can't offer a promotion with conditions that are impossible to fulfil and Vodafone shouldn't advertise that promotion if they can't provide the required documents to enable a customer to participate. I'll drag both of them through the legal mud by their balls if I have to.
completed it 11 days ago and got an email saying they will respond in up to 15 days whether I got my "gift" or not.
That was a week ago...
I used my receipt number in the proof of purchase number but I paid through Paypal. Waiting to see how they will deal with that...
Going back and checking There is a reference number and a link to check how the redemption is going. Clicking the link sends me to a site asking for the reference number and my registered email. After entering the data I get a message here -
Mines approved. Waiting to be shipped.
Registered the day it went live, still status is registered
Also does anyone know why America and other country got more pre order gifts than us?
Other country had the choice of either a wireless charger, and a 128gbSD card or a VR camera and a SD card,.
Just wondering
Received this email today.
Dear Samsung Note8 Customer,
We hope you are enjoying your new Note8.
We would like to apologise for the delays in processing your claim for the Samsung Wireless Charger Promotion. The demand for the Wireless Charger has exceeded expectations and overwhelmed our promotions team.
Rest assured though, we have expanded the team and are working hard to get through the claims as quickly as possible. You will receive an email once your claim has been processed and also when your Wireless Charger has been shipped.
In the meantime, if you would like to check the status of your claim, please access the redemption website here.
Thank you for your patience.
Yours,
Samsung Promotions Team
Looks like I'm going to waiting forever.
Yep, got the same notice and a couple hours later got a notification that my purchase docs had been validated but now it would take (up to) 5 days to validate my IMEI... If the IMEI is deemed not valid they will let me know...
How nice, you have a wonderful new toy, the receipt is fine but the IMEI may not be valid... Awaiting Validation Limbo...
Seriously, WTF?!!!

yeah samsung dont seem to be as talented in organising things like this.
still waiting on the "Loyalty bonus" thing as well... very poorly communicated thing that we should be very pleased and excited about but now am just tired and angry about.
Well that was a drama and a half... Finally got the "Congratulations" email. Now it will only take up to a month to send out...
It's like the star wars saga, it just keeps going even after you think it is finished for good.....
Arrived a week ago... Not bad, but would've preferred the 256gb micro sd....

Hello, fellas.
I would like to write few words about a story between Honor's customer care department and a customer, which is me.
First of all, this is not going to be something short but I would like to say "Thank you" in advance for everyone who is patient enough to read the whole story. I have been using Honor devices for the past 4 years but I had to switch to another brand and I am not sure if I will ever get another Honor device or even suggest a friend of mine to buy a phone from Honor.
4 months ago I bought the Honor View 10 (6/128) but I was a little surprised when I saw Android 8.0 out of the box and I was surprised because meanwhile in the United States the same model was shipping with Android 8.1 out of the box, so I thought it is just a matter of time for us, the European customers, to receive the same update. But even now, the phone is still stuck on Android 8.0.
So I decided to contact Honor on Twitter and to request additional information regarding their software support. So I contacted Honorglobal with the simple question "When will the HonorView10 be updated to Android 8.1?" and they advised me that actually I have contacted the wrong team and I have to get in touch with Honor UK. Lol, why exactly Honor UK? They did not even ask where am I from and where I have bought the phone from, they literally copy/pasted a template to answer me. Anyway, I did contact Honor UK and guess their answer - you do have to contact your local Honor representatives. The funny thing is that Honor Bulgaria was advertising Honor 8 as their most recent phone and they did not have information regarding View 10. So once again, I contacted Honorglobal, they once again copy/pasted me a template and I had to contact Honor UK again.
I decided to send them an email. But after few days of waiting, I had to stick back to their twitter page. One month passed since I initially asked them when exactly the Honor View 10 is going to be updated to the latest Android 8.1. And every single day I was getting more and more frustrated by the total lack of customer support.
I decided to change my tactic and started to, literally, spam them. Every time there was a tweet from Honor UK or Honorglobal (99% of the tweets were regarding Honor 10), I was asking them in a comment regarding the update to Android 8.1. Two weeks after I started the spam tactic, I received a direct message from a page called "Honor Assistance". The message I received was stating the following information:
"There is no hardware difference between the North American model and the European one but the North American region has a priority and all major updates/features are first released for North America and after that for the rest of the world". (In case somebody wants an evidence, I can also provide you with screenshots).
I could not believe what I read. Priority? Like, are you F******* serious?
But anyway, I continued with my spam tactic and after few more days I received a tweet from Honor UK - "The 8.1 update is currently underworks and we do not know when exactly is going to be released, but hey, stay tuned."
What do they actually mean by saying "underworks"? The update is absolutely the same as the one running on BKL-L04 which is the North American model. Either they have released the phone in NA with beta version of the software or they are just joking with their customers.
Suddenly I realized that I have never received an answer to my email, even till now, I am still waiting. More than 2 months for an answer to an email from a customer. I am working as a customer care representative in a pretty big company and no matter how heavy our workload is, even with a quite of a delay, we always have to answer the customer. But it seems Honor's customer care department is not working that way.
A few days ago I noticed that I have not seen any tweets from Honor UK recently and I wanted to check them out, but guess what, they have blocked me. But not only that, an Honor-phone owner sent me a DM and told me that they actually have filtered my comments like a month ago (maybe when my spam tactic started). I was shocked, logged in with my girlfriend's account and that fella was absolutely right - most of the comments were not visible.
The device itself is great, the camera is nice, the hardware (except the display which has so crap refresh rate) is amazing but I am not wasting my money on a phone which is not going to be updated. 4 months and I have not received a single update. I had to manually flash an update from Firmware Finder.
I understand that Honor 10 is the most recent Honor flagship but the internals are pretty much the same as these into Honor View 10. So the software support could be almost identical. But no, Honor 10 is currently a priority for Honor and they are only concentrated on that one. I sold my Honor View 10 yesterday and I doubt that I will buy another phone from that brand.
I understand they have millions of customers and losing a single one (me) is nothing for them, but if you actually care about the official software and customer support, you better think again. You are not going to get it from Honor.
Thank you for reading my boring story and I wish you a wonderful day.
Best regards,
Dennis.
Totally agree with you, this is my first and last honor device.
Thank you
Yeah, I tweeted an answer to HonorUSA that they were happy with a new custom ROM. The tweet was about the site to get bootloader unlock code. No response from them, Honor open source program seems us Honor Open silence program.
It's a very good device but customers care is pretty bad

Hey Santi,
The reason you didn't receive an answer about the unlock site is probably due to not having information ourselves. The site, as you know is available to obtain an unlock code. For a week or so, while the site was down, I initiated an unlock code request which I worked diligently to respond and provide as much as I could. We did tweet about the site becoming available as soon as it did.
We're working on some things internally and will be making an announcement here in the coming weeks.
I hope to improve the communication and responsiveness on our end on all channels.
To the OP,
Unfortunately, I'm in no position to speak for other regions of Honor. I'm sorry you had such a bad experience though. Hopefully there will be some news soon
-Chris
I mean is spamming really the way to go? As you're a customer service representative yourself I'm sure if you're asked information that you don't my have access too you wouldn't appreciate being spammed
Seriously guys? It's like you really aren't even trying. Not everything is a tweet or an email. Real customer service does and will continue to be on an actual phone with a person. I sent Honor USA a FB message to get their number for support. They DM'd me back in 24 hours with number. I called them and spoke to real person after 1 small transfer asking which phone I had. I had purchased a view 10 also and stupidely let it slide down my leg and onto a tile floor and completely shattering the display. I told them I was disappointed that an expensive phone didn't have basic gorilla glass etc.....even though this was MY OWN FAULT not theirs. She gave me a case number and said they will pick the phone up and send it to their Texas based repair facility all paid for via UPS next day air saver. She quoted it might take 10 days to get it fixed. They picked it up on a monday, it arrived tuesday morning in Texas. They repaired and replaced the entire display and glass (must easier I suspect) and had already shipped it back out to me THAT TUESDAY. I had it in hand by thursday all fixed and brand new looking and no charge, not even for shipping.
I'm sorry I just haven't had one single bad experience with their support yet and I've had a few issues. Maybe try calling for once? Talking like humans should be doing more. Not getting on your case it's just a symptom of this generation that thinks everything is done online completely and that real interaction is never required. If anyone would like the number let me know.

Apart you're from USA, the priority region, the issue you had is a hardware, not software. ? You already have Android 8.1, we here in Europe are still waiting for the update that came out of the box for you.

Actually, you are wrong. When a customer asks me a question and there is not enough information, we are contacting the relevant department for such information and within 72 hours we are forwarding the information to the customer either with a phone call or via email and this is what is right. But copy/pasting the same useless answer "keep checking the social media accounts for more information" is not good at all.

I did contact the Bulgarian honor representatives but as I mentioned, they are not up to date as three months ago their most recent phone was Honor 8 and they could not provide me with any information but with a suggestion to contact the UK department. If I have to contact the UK department with a phone call, my bill is going to be as expensive as the price of the device itself. The official Honorglobal page suggested me to send an email so I did it and they never turned back to me with anything, not even an automated response. And you cannot put yourself into the shoes of a European customer as your region is a priority for Honor, which they publicly admit. I hope it is clear enough now.
If it weren't for Google's project treble, I wouldn't have bought this phone.

Your really mad over a simple software revision? And your complaining about it on XDA out of all places? People on here flash the update themselves ?
Edit: This is coming from a person that has no respect for Huawei after their dumbass desicion to stop providing bootloader unlock codes. @[email protected]_USA any updates on the unlock situation?

There is big difference between being mad and being disappointed. Everyone here is a customer of a particular brand, in our case, we are customers of Honor/Huawei. As a customer, you expect to receive any kind of support from Honor, if anything occurs and you need such support. I only shared my story to let the people know how bad is Honor's customer support. Do not forget that one of the reasons Apple is an iconic tech brand is their relationship with the customers.

You're getting disappointed in a phone OEM? Why?
Yo, I used to be on AT&T. United States. Do you realize how long we'd have to wait for an update - minor or major - when every other region in the world already got the update and, in some cases, with extra features?
You're disappointed in 8.0 to 8.1. Why?
Edit: I'm comparing an OEM that sells unlocked phones, "Huawei/Honor" to a US based carrier, "AT&T" -- not 1 to 1. But, concerning updates, which I think is relevant, some Android AT&T branded phones would be hardware identical to other regions, but we'd be almost the last region to get updates -- for even flagship phones.

Emailing them is rather useless I emailed them as soon as I heard they will stop giving out unlock codes. I asked them if I could get codes and if not using those codes will void my warranty or not. Such a simple question they never bothered reply to me either.

If you obtain an unlock code alone, that will not void your warranty. Only after unlocking your bootloader will you void the warranty.
