Just got a Brand New GS3 for $.99 with ATT
AT&T has matched Sam's Galaxy S3 BF price of .96 and let me upgrade 2 weeks early. I can provide proof if you need it, I have the email confirmation.This totally beats waiting in those black friday lines. They also said that I can call back when i get my bill and they will remove the 36$ activation fee
I just called at&t and asked them if they could override the upgrade date to make it 2 weeks earlier to take advantage of sam's offer on black friday. But they said that they could not do it, but they could price match it. Now, I am getting the GS3 2 weeks before black friday at the black friday sam's club price without having to wait in those ridiculous lines!
Thanks, I will try this tomorrow
This is how I feel because I got mine for $159.99

Did you ask to speak to someone in a particular department (retentions, etc) or did you just start with the person who answered when you called? I want to be sure I direct the request to the same place so I can get this deal too.
Thanks!
damn. i paid full subsidized price for my wife and mine. baaaaah. this was almost 2 months ago though, so there ain't no way i'm gettin' anything back. thankfully, i sold my unlocked iphone 4 for $300 to help offset the costs.

Woohoo! I just called AT&T and they refunded me the price for the Gs3 I purchased a week ago. Sweet! Thanks for the heads up!
So does ATT PM? EverytimeI talk to them, they say we dont do that.. Wife needs a new phone.. I'll try later today.
The best I got for my S3 was, $200 credit, with upgrade fee reversed, and 2 year contract removed. Of course this came with a cost, I had to battle with ATT for a week about my unlimited data,

If you wait for 6-7 months then you will get the note 2 for that price. Price drops are normal with Android devices

I just tried and got shot down, they told me they do not price match.
Went to the retail store as well and got shot down there as well.
They say they wont price match but sometimes can just get them to credit the difference to your bill
Confirmed! I got the price match via 611.
I JUST got off of the phone getting the price match. So here are the details:
I've been an AT&T customer since before the Cingular merger, but have been off contract for about 2 months. (Last contract renewal w/ phone upgrade was Sept 2010)
I called into 611, and the upgrade sales department. I told my CSR Justyn (female) that I was off contract, and interested in the GS3, but I was not sure I wanted to go back on contract for a $200 phone. I asked if AT&T would be willing to price match an offer from Sam's club for the GS3 w/ a 2 year contract. She asked how much, I replied with $0.96. (Note: I did not mention that this was a Black Friday special) After verifying that my account was in fact out of contract, she put me on hold to ask her manager if this price match could be confirmed.
She came back from hold, said that her manager would match that price to start a new 2 year contract. I also made sure to get an email documenting that I would keep my grandfathered unlimited data plan.
Final cost: 16GB GS3 - $0.96 + $10.36 S,H,&T = $11.32 total.
If you call in, are polite, but with hesitation to upgrade (and being available to do so) I don't see a problem for anyone else trying to get this for themselves.
(BTW - My GF just got a GS3 a few days ago, and is pissed that she paid $199. She is going to see about getting a refund from T-Mob tonight. )
Awesome, just got off the phone with ATT customer care (third time`s the charm), they credited $200 to my account as a price match from bestbuy (BB price matched me for Amazon`s $99) .
Another success story, just got off the phone. Got a very nice rep, was super polite, said i was a long time customer (even though it only showed i was since January) and got my phone fully refunded! Big thanks to the OP for this!
Well I had mixed success. I followed the approach of nae10135 and I ended up getting them for $50 each, which is what I had been hoping to pay before I saw these extreme deals for BF. I called, spoke to a guy who said $50 each, I said I needed to think about it and he said he'd put a note on my account. I called back an hour later and the lady I spoke to said that they were $300 each (!) and that she didn't have to honor the note on the account. I called back again right away and told the guy I was confused about whether they would honor the offer from the first guy and he was like "Of course we will, it's already noted on your account."
Took longer than I expected but they should be here early next week. When we were almost done I thought to ask if a local AT&T store would have honored the price from the first guy and he said that they might or might not, but I kind of wish I'd gone by to check so I didn't have to wait for shipping etc. Oh well.
The most important thing to me was getting it for a decent price and not having to lose my data plan, which I would have given up if I'd actually gone to Sams.
Nice. Yeah att has been very generous lately. For me for instance. I renewed my contract and got the S3 in July for 150. Went in in September and upgraded my same contract again and got the hox for 99.00 to sell. Then just last week they let me upgrade the same contract again and sold me another gs 3 for 199. So I got three phones at the subsidised price in like 4 months time

I bought my s3 almost a month ago for the full subsidized price of $199. Felling inspired by this post I called att and got a $99 credit on my account. So not as great as $.99 but an improvement from where I'm sitting.
I called T-Mobile (ask for loyal dpt or retention center) over the 3 day weekend upset that I could not upgrade until 2014, I've been a loyal customer for 7+yrs and I was rambling about getting cancellation info and the rep asked why...I stated that sprint was offering great deals on the note 2 and that I could get it for $300. She said cancelling wld not be a such a great idea $(200 per line fee) and said she would see what she cld do....she came back and offer the note 2 for 509.99 so I took bait and bought it. I sld be receiving it tonight....can't wait to get off from work....I'll keep you posted...for those that been customers for awhile you may want to look into this.....worst they can say is no!
Forgot to mention...I'm grandfathered into an older plan and still have [email protected] service so I didn't want to upgrade to the newer plans...

Wow, I'm not eligible for an upgrade til 2014 either but nabbed one on Saturday for $200 flat, no rebates or anything. :highfive:
FYI because of the Samsung sale the outright price was $499 this weekend, which is what you paid.
I got mines for 70 bucks.. Ive been a customer for 8 years and have not gotten a phone from them since the mytouch.. I have had Nexus devices since then.. I am also not on contract and threatened to leave
I noticed one guy said hit the eBay for cases, instead of doing that go to Samsung.com and register your phone. Right after doing that Samsung will send you a coupon code to your email that you can use over and over again for a month that code is good for 50 percent of every and any excessories.

i ordered my Note 2 from AT&T on Monday (straight off their website) and apparently it's on backorder.
anyone here have any experience with their shipping system? this is my first time ordering a phone off their website, and definitely my first time on backorder with them. was curious how long i should expect to wait before seeing my phone.
I ordered mine from a Premier phone rep. She said it was back ordered, but it shipped the next day.

i ordered it online because none of the stores in my area had it in stock on monday (closest one that had it in stock was 80 miles away). i called around and asked. guess i'll just have to wait and see how long it takes.
i was checking for the white version, btw. i'm kind of deadset on it, just prefer the way it looks by far over the grey.

I ordered on Saturday the 24th and was told it was in stock, then I called yesterday and they told me it was on back order, I got so mad at them for telling me one thing, and it was not true. Just an FYI the online matched the in store price for me. On black Friday my local att store was having buy a Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 for 300 get the note #2 for 50.00 or a SG3 for free. I took the SG3 and sold it, and called the online division and asked if they would use my upgrade and sell me the note 2 for 50.00 and after getting the ok from his boss I am getting the Note 2 for 50. Can't wait to get it hope it is not on back order to long
Just got an email tonight at 7:25 pm Eastern Item has Shipped and mine is White as well so hang in there its on the way
I've been checking my local stores 2 or 3 times a week since launch, but haven't managed to get one yet. I did find one in stock last week, but when I got to the store, the line was out the door and I didn't feel like waiting.
At this rate, it sounds like I might as well just wait for the Note 3.
----edit----
Okay, finally nabbed one tonight. 1 hr, 15 min wait though.
walk into your local ATT or Best Buy and purchase it, take it home with you same day.
Wow these things must be selling well!
I noticed when i got mine a couple weeks ago they were sold out online, and it showed most stores around here as out or limited quantity, at least with the white one, only one store around here actually said "in stock" and thats where I got it.

Keep calling! That is what I did and with a few clicks on my last call (could have been coincidence but. ...) the Rep said "okay refresh your Page" and then it said something like fulfilling or something along those lines, and I got it like the next day!

well, after my third phone call to AT&T about this i was informed that the phone is NOT on backorder, the fulfillment center has my order in their system and is still processing it.
there is nothing they can do to expedite the process, they said check again on Monday and if it hasn't shipped by then call customer service yet another time.
how hard is it to package a phone and ship it off, seriously?
Walmart Wireless.com Order
I purchased my SN2 from Walmart wireless.com today for $299.99 with a $100 e-gift card and no tax. My shipping status shows awaiting inventory and before I ordered it there was a message saying it could take up to two weeks. I guess I will just wait and see what happens. From my research all of the other retailers in the area have the phone in stock or just got it in stock expect for Walmart. I am sure this is due to the $100 gift card. Anyone else order from Walmart wireless.com?
Its in stock
I just ordered on wed 28th and got on 30th. ATT overnighted for free. keep caling.
Just join the forum, I want to add you can check stock of the Note II in you area by going to att website and select the Note II, it was out of stock as of last night for my area.
Weird. I literally walked into an AT&T store yesterday and grabbed one, no wait or anything.

Order mine last night from at&t it was pick up this morning by carrier and I will have it Tuesday. P.s. everybody that puts at&t down I'm 9 months away from a upgrade and they allowed my to purchase it for $299 with free shipping.:good:
A few weeks back I called a rep to ask about my ETF to cancel and go to Verizon for the Note II. The lady I spoke with offered me the Note II for $249. I didn't t buy the phone at the time. The rep noted it on my account. I called back last night and spoke with another rep.
He honored the offer, even though I wasn't told all the details correctly the first time I called, and long story short, I renewed my contract and have a Note II on the way.
I ended up paying $312 {289.99 +tax) and got bill credits totalling $97, free overnight shipping and he waived the upgrade fee.
Thanks Phillip!
Att does this for all their products. If you have uverse they theyll give good discounts on it too.

I love ATT Retention dept as well. They gave me $100 in credit just because I said I was thinking of switching to T-Mobile. Didn't have to upgrade or anything. They just gave it to me.
Same
ATT has been nothing but fantastic this time around. I am actually coming from Verizon and I wanted the Note 2 on a couple of our 5 lines. However, Verizon was being very...unfriendly towards my interest with this phone. We had 3 lines that were ready for upgrade immediately. However, in trying to sign our new 2 year contract to Big Red, they wanted a $30 upgrade fee per line. Additionally, two of our lines were going to lose their unlimited data. The third was going to drop from 4GB down to 2GB per month. They were in no way willing or interested in working with me to keep me as a customer. So, I immediately requested to cancel all lines of service. They threw a fit at that but that's a different story. In any event, I wound up doing a bit of shopping around for an alternative carrier. After deciding on ATT, I visited my local Best Buy due to the ATT corporate store being crazy busy during my lunch break. Best Buy got me set up with the Note 2 and also price matched Amazon Wireless. So, I walked out that day with 3 Notes for $175 a pop. However, the guy at Best Buy somehow set our share plan on different data plans per line. This next bit is where ATT customer service shines. I called in to have the matter addressed. It was a super friendly call from start to finish. I wasn't upset to begin with but had I been, the rep was super friendly and I'm sure it would have been de-escalated. At the end, to compensate me for the "inconvenience" of having to call in, she waived my first months bill entirely. That's what I call customer satisfaction. ATT might not have the same coverage, call quality, or speeds when compared to Verizon in my local area. However, the customer service more than made up for it in my book.
+1
Just got them to match the amazon $179 price minus Best Buy phone freedom ($50)....out the door $136 after taxes. No complaints here....

This was from AT&T retention department....I just asked them if they could match this price before I bought it from BB.
Just wanted to say thanks for this thread.
I purchased two SGN2's last week at an ATT store, as they were the only ones carrying them in my area. We got the $100 off the second phone deal. After seeing this I called them last night and got the response to call a different number that wasn't currently open. She did credit my activation fees though ($86).
This morning, i called the number she referred me to and they said they did not handle that type of thing, Then forwarded me to another dept. After being disconnected and calling back the rep kindly credited me $120 to my account, I did not want to push the Amazon Wireless price and I am extremely happy with this.
Thank you All!
I believe my price came to $189.99 per phone. Plus free activation.
Is there a direct number to the retentions department? I qill be getting the note 2 today if i get paid.
Thanks in advance

A couple weeks back I was having problems with my Galaxy S 2 that I already had replaced under warranty for factory defects, This time around was a charging issue. (Always says its charging) So I asked them if they would be able to allow me to upgrade because I was extremely unsatisified with the phone and they went ahead and upgraded me. I told them about XDA people reporting getting the phone for 199 from other reps and that Amazon Wireless was running a special for 199. They had me pay 330 which was about the price for the phone and the tax for it, waived the upgrade fee and credited my account a whole 150 bucks. Needless to say I was very satisfied, On top of that she even through in 2nd day delivery. So I had my replacement device within days, and my phone bill this month was a mere 30 bucks.

i just dialed 611 went to the upgrades/service change option and chose other. I talked to the girl and asked her if they would price match that offer and she said yes. I had not already ordered he phone though so i did it through her. It all depends on who you egt to deal with in the long run.
Meh, not that big of a deal. The phone is 174 at Amazon.
:good: for AT&T Retentions over here.
I just got off the phone with them for a completely different issue. The price of the device wasn't an issue for me. I got my Note II for only $63 and some change. But, anyway, I saw a thread on another website, where a lot of people were complaining about our devices not coming with the much vaunted multi-view capability. There were many people reporting that when they complained to AT&T about it and threatened to cancel service, as a way of trying to give them an incentive, AT&T offered either a large one-time credit or a temporary monthly reoccurring credit. The typical result was getting $10 knocked off your bill for 12 months. Sure enough, just before I got off the phone with the retentions rep I spoke to, she offered me $10 off my bill for the next 12 months as a way for AT&T to apologize to me. I'm quite happy about that.

I spent an hour and a half on the phone with them today. The best I could talk my way into was a discount to $274.99 and a $100 credit on my bill. I guess considering my upgrade isn't available until may 13 its not all bad. I kept throwing the amazon deal out but they wouldn't price match it outright on the device.

I pre-ordered the device via BB only to find out that several stores in my area only received a handful of stock ( less than 8 within a 90 mile radius .) So, I am trying to figure out if this is a nationwide thing? Whats the advantage of pre-ordering when you can go to sprint on launch day and pick one up? I called BB mobile number and they told me that they were waiting on the manufacturer. Has anyone else experienced this problem, or is this just an isolated issue for my area?
My store had 2... TWO im so pissed i even was going to buy it at sprint but they said the double buyback credit was over ...
Yeah same here in east Tennessee, pre ordered last month to only go in bright and early today and be told they don't have mine in, that I didn't pre order as early as some (also on my date of pre order the lady that helped me said "we will have enough that if you change your mind about the color you want you can change it that day" well she was wrong, and they told me to keep calling back and that they may get a shipment TONIGHT. It really blows to be let down by a terrible product release on the release date. I so happened to eyeball the cage with the phones in them and they had only around 15 note 4's, needless to say I will never pre order with them again and plus the misinformation given to me they should be held accountable due to the lack of training they give staff (that or the staff was trying to get rid of me).

YOu guys are absolutely right, I asked a manager about the issue and they blamed it on the manufacturer saying that samsung didnt deliver enough of them. Whats the point of pre-ordering if I can go to the sprint store on launch day and walk out with a phone? Sprint stores in my area are still offering the (up to 200 trade in) but not the samsung guarantee 200 with the trade in, of a phone worth atleast 10 dollars. YOU SUCK BEST BUY!
I just got off the phone with my best buy and the guy told me they got 10 in only 5 for att and 5 for Sprint.

i just called mine and they where to busy to talk or give me a idea if they had any. i left my number for the callback
I called mine, and they said they had a lot of ATT models, and I was the 3rd person from Sprint to preorder.... This guy told me that they only got 2 sprint phones. and I'd have to wait on next shipment.... Best buy is garbage. It wasn't Samsung, its Best Buy, because if sprint has a surplus and has Pre-Orders AND walk-ins, there is a gap here. They better honor the deal considering it's their fault they don't have my phone ready. I plan on going in and paying 100 + taxes give or take.
Man, this sucks that you guys are having all this trouble.
The whole double buyback thing is a farce anyway, especially if you're dealing with a relatively new device. No way would I have traded in my LG G3 for $200. I'll sell it on eBay and get at least $350 - $400 for it. This is why I normally just go with the carrier stores. Sure, their promotions aren't always great, but I paid $79 less than Best Buy would have charged me ($720 vs. $799) and I had the phone in my hands yesterday, delivered right to my door. To boot, I'll make almost double what Best Buy would have given me for my old phone. All that combined is totally worth foregoing the promotions in my book.
Regardless, I hope you guys get your phones soon That's total BS. What's the point in pre-ordering if you can't get the product on release day? Isn't that the reason pre-orders exist in the first place?
My sprint store told me the 200 buy back ended
Stop whining guys. You're getting 200 skins for a $10 phone. That works out to getting a Galaxy Note 4 for $99.. have patience. At least that's the deal with Best Buy.

Im actually trading in a note 2 i think its worth 10 bucks
I am quick to let my S3 go. lol, its ultra outdated. I just find it so crazy that best buy can't ever get it right come pre-orders. I think if they reserved the money aside they can come with the phones... They don't delay in taking payment, they shouldn't delay in giving the product. Now if I could go to them and say I want a pre-order and we both take our times in delivering money and product, then sure take as much time as need be.
yeah i just talked to them and they said no ETA on next shipment and mine did not come
I called my BB cause they are 45 min away. He said they had my phone set aside for me and it would be there waiting.
I believe that whole being clueless on when next shipments and things coming in, is utter crap. I've worked in retail, and for them not to know not only would be unprofessional its completely incompetent of the employees. I believe that is just what they are trained to say. Ehh, what do we do though. Might as well sit it out n wait. I think if people are just better informed things wouldn't be so bad. Don't give the "I don't know" line as a business.

nO offense dude, but that comment was silly. So you mean to tell me if I purchase a 13 oz steak for a 3 oz steak cost, I shouldn't complain if I get it at some point, just not when I want it? I.E 3 hours later... and cold? lol *Its my money and I want it now* -Like in the commercial
That phone is still a beast atleast
