    Ordered mine Monday lunch time and picked it up from Parcel Motel this morning.

    What date did it say when you ordered, that it would be despatched by, as I made an order yesterday and it said "despatch by 16th september" even though it says "dispatching in one or two business days".

    You are far better off paying the extra €50 and buying a 16gb now, as an 8gb off ebay will sell for nearly the same price of the 16gb off google play.

    Also, people tend to list phones as new, even though they've opened and used them for a few hours and decided it wasn't for them.


  • Registered Users Posts: 618 ✭✭✭Pingi


    Ordered yesterday and its already in Parcel motel in Belfast. They sent me a picture :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,042 ✭✭✭zl1whqvjs75cdy


    Just noticed the post up top with the guy selling one on. I'd be interested in buying a 16gb version if someone has one spare. Just throwing it out there.

    I have an unopened 16GB from the USA. Any offers?

    I'll offer you €20 more than the price on play.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21 westerneyes


    Not sure but I'm in the same boat, let us know if it ships for you.
    Just wondering if you got yours delivered yet? I'm waiting for parcel motel since Friday and am also in galway

    Ignore: just noticed google decapitated my pmid from my delivery address. I have sent some info to PM(hopefully enough!)


  • Registered Users Posts: 618 ✭✭✭Pingi


    Just got mine, was delivered to Parcel motel in Dublin at around half 9, less than 36 hours from ordering!

    Getting it sorted now, looks nice!


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,770 ✭✭✭Nedved85


    Hi lads - I ordered one - Long story short, i cancelled it straight after purchasing (Don't ask) Google also emailed saying they cancelled - due to postage address/card address mis matches. Iv been charged the full whack on my visa card though! (€248) 3 days ago... Will google repay me? Whats the best way of contacting them if not?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 829 ✭✭✭smellmepower


    The funds could be held from you until up to a week after they cancel the order, that is, while Google won't take the money until the phone ships, the authorization for the funds doesn't go away instantly.

    They released the funds back into my account virtually the instant (or at least within an hour) I got the cancellation email, as I checked my online banking, so im guessing its purely random.

    I'm tempted. Can I clarify, best to set up a new Google Wallet account as my current one is set to Ireland, use Irish plastic, but set to ROI...use Parcel Motel (n00b) and collect the device in Belfast, or..?

    I probably have that wrong.
    ETA, OK, I think understand a bit better now from reading the thread. :o

    Has anybody got a number for them?

    I have this number in Dublin but its dead (Gordon House, Barrow Street
    Dublin 4 IE
    +353 (1) 436 1001) and +353 (1) 436 1001) (No options there suit..)

    Or an e-mail address would do..

    Cheers

    Same for me. In my case I ordered 8gb, on 1st sep, got cancelled on 10th sep and money came back on 10th sep. I immediately ordered 16gb, got cancelled email immediately but money is €248, deducted from bank account still didn't get back.:(

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,510 ✭✭✭mcw92


    Ive set up a UK google account, and am using a Uk VPN, but the country selection is set to USA, even tho the price is in pounds.
    Any idea?

    Some of the folks here had to change their card address to the parcel motel one as the orders were being cancelled. Others were more lucky and it went straight through. I am very tempted to pull the trigger on a 16GB but changing my card address is not an option at the moment.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 5,402 ✭✭✭Tinie


    Second order cancelled. I give up, dont need the phone that much.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 384 ✭✭selephonic


    Had multiple orders cancelled using visa debit, following all the steps. Tried with a credit card and it worked. Shipped yesterday and currently with parcel motel.

    So perhaps credit cards work better than debit for this.


  • Registered Users Posts: 506 ✭✭✭pcasso


    Bazinga.:D
    Mine was shipped yesterday evening.
    Next stop parcel motel hopefully.:)

    Thought mine had arrived as I got a text this morning saying I had a parcel awaiting pick up. Turned out to be a pair of slippers as a welcoming gift from Parcel Motel.

    I see you've only had it less than 4 days. You can return it to Google within 7 days under EU law if you are not happy with it.

    I may do that, thought that seeing as so many on here looking for it someone may be happy to take it.

    Hi,

    I've already got my 8Gb Nexus 4. Now I see the following on my bank statement:

    RATE 0.8415, CHARGE 2.01, ERTF 2.01

    I understand the first is the exchange rate, but the second and the third charges seem like they came out of nowhere. Anyone has any idea of what they are?

    Thanks.
