ORDERING TIME DOES NOT MATTER! YOU COULD HAVE ORDERED ON LAUNCH DAY AND IT WILL NOT SHIP UNTIL 8/3

[copyguy]

DO NOT believe that your order will ship by 7/23 if you ordered via the web site on launch day!

I ordered on 7/15 at 10:24PM.  I was just informed at 8:05AM that shipments are based on PROCESSED time.  My order was PROCESSED on 7/20, pushing my ship date for my LAUNCH DAY order to 8/3!

MODS, PLEASE DO NOT DELETE THE ORIGINAL POST!  IT IS A TRUE STATEMENT AND MEETS THE T&C OF THE SITE!

I ordered my phone online on 7/16 in the late afternoon.  I received my phone yesterday!  I dont know why you are having a hard time.

[copyguy]

did you order via the Internet or phone?

[copyguy]

was just told by a CSR that I should cancel my order and go to wirefly or amazon... Thanks Verizon! you're the bestest!!!!

[wendy1980]

I ordered it over the internet on their website.

I ordered Droid X on 7/15 at 7:30 AM online and received the phone at 2:30 pm the next day.  Whatever problems contributors are encountering with their order are not universal problems.

[copyguy]

so, I just gave up.  Wirefly says that they still have limited stock so I ordered from them.  I paid full price instead of getting my 1 year contract but will be able to walk away from Verizon should I choose to do so without paying an ETF.  I'll post back when I get my tracking # from them.

so let me get this straight you running around tagging and yellen and then you go and pay over$500.00 just to have this phone becouse of a screw up with your CC and now your saying well now I wont have to be under contract.  Dude you have to have all the add-ons turned on for this phone to work correctly.wow what peeps will do for a toy and by the way I talked to a CSR on launch day with problems with my Eris and they upgraded me to the Droid X and I received it the next day. Also you have the most tags on the forums so chill my friend.

Not true...I ordered via the internet on launch day and got my phone on Wednesday.

[copyguy]

I did not say that you definitely won't get it.  I was stating that a launch day order does not guarantee delivery prior to 8/3

[copyguy]

Anyone from Verizon Support care to back me up on this?

[roco54]

 If the phone is not to shipped until 8/3/2010 why then is VZW withholding that information?

i ordered mines last monday and it will be here on this monday! woot! woot! sorry your having a good time!

copyguy... we already established in your original posts that your credit card was declining.... dont fault verizon for your own lack of fiscal responsibility

[copyguy]

when did we establish that?????  I have a very good credit score thank you very much.  I also have a current account with verizon that has 2 droids on it.  I have NEVER missed a payment to verizon wireless.  The order was NOT held up by my credit card. 

[copyguy]

in response to elotter about my credit card declining...this is a copy/paste from my CC's website, note that the Post Date was 7/22 and the Trans Date was 7/20, meaning that VZW said they processed on 7/20 and did not request the money until 7/22.  To me this says that someone finally noticed the issue with my order last night and sent it through, saying that it was processed on 7/20.

"...note that the Post Date was 7/22 and the Trans Date was 7/20, meaning that VZW said they processed on 7/20 and did not request the money until 7/22."

That is not what "post" and "transaction" dates mean.  Transaction dates are when charges are run through, post date is when the paper trail (real or virtual) catches up with it.  Transaction date is when your CC company approves the payment.  Post date doesn't have anything to do with "request the money".

If you didn't order early on the 15th you got pushed back to 8/3. 

[copyguy]

when I placed my order on the site, the shipment notifier on screen said "Will ship by 7/23".  Verizon changed that on Saturday to show "Will ship by 7/27".  It now shows "Will ship by 8/3".
