Z Fold 3 Pre-Order

I pre ordered the Z flip 3 with virgin media. Anyone know how good they are with getting them out quick on launch? Can I expect to have it on the 27th?

Had same issue with my fold 2. They were unable to repair it so they are refunding it.

Went with the Fold3 Phantom black 512GB. Also ordered Galaxy Watch 4 Classic. Manged to get 15 Percent student discount on top of the 10 percent pre-register discount

Seems lots of folks in UK are getting dispatches with delivery tomorrow. Samsung emailed to state they were arriving earlier. Fun fact, the 512GB version showed Aug 19th delivery when I was ordering and not the 26th it is showing now.

Hopefully they mange to get our orders out sooner.

Is your UPS tracking working.

Placed my order last week, no sign of shipping yet. But I ordered with the watch so maybe that might have delayed it.

Aye....not unusual for them to get things moving in the background. All down to Exertis with regard to when they'll hand them over.....think I only ever got one phone direct from them prior to official release, and even then it was only the day before. If it moves early next week, grand, if it has to wait to until the 26th/27th, also good.

No change on the watch order on my end either FWIW. Separate from the Fold order etc

Same, ordered 13th, no change in order. Although I can't check status on Samsung, but that was the last status I seen before that page was gone. (checked out as guest but had an account with the same email).

Guessing the watches are causing our delay, but that sucks they didn't just send them separate.

Dpd arrived a few mins ago with my z flip . All grand till he asked for the 4 digit code that I havnt received .

On to virgin for 20 mins and waiting on someone to call me back with it so I can ring the driver back and get my phone 😡

Edit, it's going to be Monday:( they've to email and request the right people send the code again but to the right number this time. Apparently they stopped emailing it out as well at some point.

Seeing things like this adds to my impatient-ness! :(

Likewise, but I'll give them until the official launch on Thursday before contacting them

Yeap, Samsung followed Apple and other companies with the whole no longer including chargers in the box. It's a joke alright. Mad how budget and midrange phones still have chargers, but 2k phones don't. Really is so stupid.

Seems it has to be claimed separately in Ireland. https://2021.samsungpromotions.claims/starterkit/en-IE

If it came with, you could still claim another under that promotion?!

Emailed exertis to find out if watch was the delay.

They said the phone has already shipped and should be with me today. Watch will ship tomorrow.

The tracking shows label created and notthing else but they were confident it had left the warehouse already. I'm guessing they meant today so should have it tomorrow.

Also, I was never emailed it was shipped.

Mine says 'shipped' on Samsung store (and got an email to say that too) but tracking still only says 'label created' on UPS site/app.

Probably UPS have picked up a pallet of parcels from Exertis and will scan them overnight. Fingers crossed for delivery tomorrow. Good timing as just picked up an old iphone I got repaired to use as trade-in.

Nice price! I checked around for best price before ordering on Sunday and don't think that was available.

If you're eligible for 15% off the Fold 3 in the Irish Samsung store (e.g. Avant cardholder, employer discount or student), that's probably still a better deal: Amazon.de units in Ireland probably not eligible for the free pen/case/charger pack and the Irish store also includes hugely discounted screen replacement for the first year.

Plus 1 day shipping from Irish store. Mine is in Finglas UPS depot now, so hopefully here tomorrow.

Although, if you can somehow also avail of the €250 trade-in bonus on Amazon DE (even offered for an iPhone 6) that plus the voucher brings the Fold 3 price to about €1300, which is crazy compared to list.

My order from Sunday was scanned as "Out for delivery" at 3am. I assume that means it was loaded on a truck that then left at a sensible hour.

UPS must have a load of these, I hope the depot security is good!

My tracking just shows as 'On the way' since 3am - no out of delivery just yet (unless this is UPSs way of saying Out for Delivery) but says delivery by end of the day. Spigen case I ordered from Amazon.de out for delivery today too
