I dont have a credit card
and my dad wont let me use his
if they had a thing to charge them to the phone bill like farmville

I understand you.that was me last year. Google needs to invent "Google Checkout Points," redeemable in the market.

Odds are your problem is caused by you downloading those apps, since that's the number one way people get trojans on their phones.
Look, you paid at least $250 for your phone, and at least $70/month for service. I think you can afford a $0.99 app.

It was stated a few posts up that the person doesn't have a credit card. I agree that it would be nice for Google to enable buying apps by having them charged to your phone bill. Not everyone has access to a credit/debit card.
Just a note: you can use visa gift cards on the market with Google Checkout - I have. You have to register the card with the website so the name & address will be registered to the card, just like a debit card. The website is in the info that comes with the card. If you really wanted to buy an app, you could.
Every paid app should have a license check, in my opinion.
Open a free checking account and get a debit card? Pay for your apps please, it keeps android moving forward. I used to do the same thing as the OP, until I felt convicted by God not to so I deleted everything I had acquired and bought it all.
my dad paid for the phone and the bill
its not that i cant afford the 99 cent app
he just wont let me buy it with his credit card

As others mentioned, go to walmart and buy a prepaid credit card. Load it with like $25, and attach it to your google account. You can use it to buy apps. Alot of apps are going to be installable as they start using googles market verification to make sure you purchased it.

no, apps won't void your warranty, there is no way for sprint to check quickly and they wouldn't take the time to either, if the apps are to blame then sprint well say it was an app after they reset your phone to stock. then start over installing them and do it slowly so you can catch the one that gave you problems.
if your just worried that they are checking over the wireless and not in store then have no fear, they don't check for that

Yes, again, that doesnt matter. Get a prepaid credit card from walmart, or grow some balls and get your own bank account. STOP stealing apps for free, the dev's work very hard on these apps, and deserve to get paid for their work. Your excuse is just that, an excuse, because you are too lazy to tell your dad to screw off and get your own credit card, or pay for your OWN bill for pete's sake...

Harsh but true
+1
I surprised no one has stated the obvious lol. 99% of these apps have a free or 'light' counterpart; most of which usually are fully functional with ads.
Most kids(dkdude36 excluded for obvious reasons lol) don't NEED and ad free app, you saw free and went for it. Is what it is.
I will +1000 on the Google market needed to up their accessibility with pre-paid cards. I gave my 10yr old my Vibrant when I moved over to sprint and I wouldn't give her my account either. She's pretty smart but she would still buy random stuff not realizing it adds up. She is pretty happy about all her free apps though.
If you're under 18, kinda hard to open a bank account. But immensely simple to get a prepaid Visa or American Express gift card, next time you're at the mall or walmart (and if you're under 18, this will certainly be sooner rather than later ), just get one of those and exercise your freedom from your parents
Wirefly’s Friends and Family site is now showing that new and existing Sprint subscribers can order the Galaxy S III for just $149.99, the lowest price seen to date, through the company’s Friends and Family site.

Just figured somebody like me may have been waiting for the price to drop a bit.
That's what I'm gonna pay for it at bb
remember Wirefly adds a second agreement... if you ok with that, $150 sounds great! Myself, I went with Costco online $175 after $25 mail-rebate, no extra agreements and90 day return policy.

So when we purchase the phone at Bestbuy they give us a $50 gift card on top of the phone freedom gift card? I can't find anything on Bestbuy's website that says that. Already signed up for the phone freedom promotion. Would love 50 more dollars.
Think I'm going to jump on this deal.
I was trying to hold out for a 32gb phone over the 16 but I just got a 64 gb SD card as well. Considering at this point it would cost another $100 to get the extra 16 gb, it just doesn't make much sense to wait, IMO.
Also, I can find nothing strange about the Wirefly agreement other than you have 14 days to return it to them if you don't like it as opposed to taking it back to a Sprint store.
What says yous?

I don't see it on the website either, but it is the same promotion they've been offering on the Evo LTE. This is what they offered me in-store. Not sure about online sales.
When ahead and got this deal. I should get $50 cash back from my bank as well.
That puts me at $100 for the device. It's a blue 16GB version. But for $150 less than a white 32GB version, I can live with it.
Even at $50 difference between the 16 and 32 it's just not worth it when you consider I just got a brand new SanDisk 64GB card for $50.
Their web site says they are shipping tomorrow, but I highly doubt that.
safe?
is wireflyfriends.com safe? I know of wirefly.com/autocontent.aspx?pageid=3586&referringdomain=wiredneirf, but the first one seems fishy. When you go to the checkout page, the site isn't secured, while the second one is. Sorry if I seem a bit paranoid.
I'm more concerned about this 'second agreement'.
can someone shed some light on that? Does it tack another agreement after this one or something?

I think you are talking about the fact that the phone needs to be connected on the same line for at least 6 months:
"By accepting the ISD, you agree to keep your account in good standing and keep your wireless plan and features as activated for at least 180 days.
You agree to repay $200 of this discount ($400 for smartphones, tablets, and netbooks) and authorize us to charge your credit card in repayment of this amount if, you signed up for a 2 year agreement and during the 181 days after your new equipment is activated, your carrier notifies us that the services you purchased have been suspended, disconnected, or deactivated, or if you return your purchase outside of the return and exchange provisions of our 14-day Satisfaction Guarantee.
Please note some of the reasons your carrier may notify us of a deactivation include if:
You transfer this equipment to another line of service after it is activated
You change your rate plan to a lower monthly service rate than was specifically required at the point of purchase
You deactivate texting/data features that were specifically required at the point of purchase
The new line of service activated with your order is used to replace a pre-existing account"

yes you can...you use the$50 you used to reserve it for, and it will print out the freedom card for $50, so you'll play about $118 after tax

I've been so pissed at Verizon for taking so long to offer this phone, that I was contemplating waiting and getting from Amazon or, you know, anywhere else.
But, $50 off on Day 1 and getting to [FINALLY] have it in my hot little hands today??? Too alluring.

no problem! I still need to wait till tomorrow
I am in disney on vacation, and I was going to go to a vzw store down the road for in store pickup, but because my billing address is in NJ, they wouldnt let me buy it. I said, screw you vzw, I'll wait a day and pay less. Also, amazon is still $200 unless you make a new line, so it's pretty much all the same. Now all I need to get is the squaretrade warranty for $99 on amazon tomorrow and I'm set!
Has anybody gotten the code to work when paying full retail? I just tried and it didn't apply any discount
How long is the code good for?
The end of August I believe
I wonder if this can be used in store?

I did it last night and selected in-store pick up. Then, I learn of this promo code this morning. I called VZW customer service and they told me I'd have to try to apply the coupon in store.
I asked if I can just cancel the order and I'd redo it but apparently I have to cancel in-store too. Makes no sense to me but I'll find out in 40 mins when the store opens.

Will do! I'll report back from the One hopefully!
For $50, I have no problem cancelling in-store and redoing it online and waiting the extra time for everything to process.
the people I was chatting with said no way to do it in store, which is why I have to wait an extra day until I'm home. But definitely let us know!
My local vzw was beyond rude to me on the phone when i called for info on the stock of the phone, I'm trying to get them to waive the upgrade fee or something.

Cancelling the order over the phone now with the store since they can't add the promo code. They aren't sure if they can cancel it though; as per VZW's site, the order automatically cancels if you don't pick it up within 4 days. Hoping I don't need to go that route.
Also, no-go on that coupon for full retail at the store.
EDIT: Nope, they can't cancel. Have to wait four days. Time is money, and I'll just eat the $50. An hour of overtime will cover that!
I was able to select instore pickup and use the code.
it Works
I went to my Verizon store and was able to talk them into letting me use the code in the store. Your experience may vary

I had used the code successfully online and selected in-store pick-up, but when I got there, the code didn't come up in their system!
Fortunately, I had taken a print-out with me (showing the discounted price) and when they asked where I'd found the code, I pulled up this thread in our forum)) to show them, so they were very nice about it and honored it. [Again, YMMV.]
I was polite throughout (which I'm sure helped) and then thanked them several times.
Good luck everyone. She sure is a beauty!
I selected store pick-up and when I went to checkout the system would not let me complete the order. What am I doing wrong?

Hm, I just placed an in store pickup right now and the code worked for me. I live in CA if that has to do with anything?
So, I place my order on the 4th for Pixel XL 128g in black using Google financing option. Order was successful, so I thought. Never got a confirmation email or anything. After submitting the page landed on order history with "Canceled" in the header. Login to sysnchrony and all my available credit is gone and there is a pending payment for the amount of the whole order. Fast fw to today, still same pending amount..a rep at google finance tell me that it shows approved and I should contact google store to get shipment info and what not.
Google store has no history of my order and keep insisting I used the wrong email to place the order haha wtf ever. They can't find any damn trace of it. No trace of it in my order history either. So guess I'm not getting the Pixel!!
I went through the same thing....Google finance still says it's pending. Google doesn't show anything.

Were you able to reorder? Even if I ever get to reorder looks like they are out of stock for XL anyways.
Not with Google finance. I went ahead and just put it on my credit card. I tried Google finance again yesterday and it was declined because of the pending charge.
Gotcha. I'm going do the same once the XL is back to stock.
Got email from Google explaining that they had some technical difficulties on some orders, mine being one. Anyways, got $100 off promo code for my reorder when its back in stock.

I used the chat feature on the Google store. The chat agent then scheduled a call back to me from a higher level. When they called, their number didn't even show on phone. I called them back from the help feature chat or call. Don't remember the number off hand though.

Return it go a few days without a phone.
I was a victim of this as well. I called and was told that if I were to cancel my new XL 128gb pre-order and reorder with the promo code, I would have to wait likely another month before I receive the phone. I decided against it, but the rep was cool and added a ton of notes to my account so when I activate it, ill get some sort of credit towards my Fi account to compensate. He also confirmed that my device would def ship on the 21st.
My order was cancelled and the Google store is saying due to financial issues on my end but, the full amount was removed from my bank account (I purchased using the pay now option using my bank card which I used to purchase the Nexus 6 and 6P) . Google is still trying to tell me that my bank didnt approve the purchase but, you can clearly see the purchase amount has been paid to "Purchase authorization Google Devices" and yet, Im being told a different story from the Google support team. Cant ask for a supervisor bc they just tell you that they can only escalate the issue and have someone get back to me. I definitely want some sort of credit or something given I have been a Google faithful for years and have been on the Fi network for a year now too....

yeah, i havent had any response at all. And I have sent multiple emails w/screenshots of my acct information showing the purchase of the "Google Devices" in my acct balance history. It even has my monthly payment to project Fi right above that so called "declined purchase" . So they somehow can automatically take payment for my Fi service, send me my Nexus 6P and my Fi sim cards not to mention my Google cardboard etc.... several things have been purchased through the same acct with NO issues, now all the sudden Im having a bunch of problems... be serious Google....
I am curious for the people who used this option...do you have to wait to use the account? I am approved but they're telling me I have wait 7 to 10 days to use the card?
What doesn't make sense to me...can someone who was approved let me know if they have to wait or can use it right away?

It took a few minutes, but once it was approved, when I went to the store it told me it was available to use for the purchase.
I did not have to add it as a payment option.
I also had called synchrony, they gave me the number over the phone, and told me it was available for use right away.

Yeah, it was never added to my payment account so I'm starting to think that there is a problem with the account. When I try and use the card number it says invalid so it obviously isn't working. Lol
Thanks for the reply.

I would totally check on it. Try and contact Synchrony directly? Mine was not only immediate but I was able to see the actual account via the Google Store showing balance, available credit, account number etc.
Makes me wonder if you did not get "click jacked."

Sounds like Google's site doesn't see the account at all!
are you by chance using a different email for synchony than your google store account ?
Google and Synchrony can't seem to figure it out. They don't have any idea why my Gmail account isn't showing my credit card from them. They are escalating the issue higher up to see if they can find out where it went wrong.
At least the phone I want is still out of stock!(I was trying to pre-order on the 4th too, been almost 10 days). [emoji35]

I am not same email I just chatted with Google and they don't even see my application or account at all. So I am going to contact Synchrony and see if they can fix that otherwise the Google rep told me to reapply?
I went for the Google Financing option for my pre-order of a 32gb at Project Fi.
But I haven't gotten any communication from the credit card company Google is using.
What is ya'll experience?
I went to use it to buy a Chromecast but the option wasn't there.
My experience: ordered 32gb silver xl through synchrony in 10/13. On 10/14, got email that 128gb was in stock. Canceled 32gb and ordered 128gb silver. Card was being declined so had to call synchrony. They said there was a hold on it as they wanted to confirm the purchase for the 128gb since the price was higher. Confirmed it. Hour later, got an automated call to confirm the purchase again. So all in all 2 contacts.
Google store does not show my card. I also have not setup my account with synchrony online or anything. Also not showing anything in payments.google.com. However orders page shows cancelled 32gb and preordered 128gb. shipping est Nov 23ish. Also got all the emails for everything.

Quick questions:
1. Is it possible to get the monthly payments billed to an existing credit card?
2. did you all just sign up at check out of your order to get the financing option?
3. should I being applying for the Google financing while waiting for the variant I want to come back in stock (to avoid possible chance of it going out of stock again during the application process)?

1. Maybe? But it would go through synchrony. Unless you just buy it with credit card.
2. Signed up during checkout
3. Signed up while phone was on backorder and trying to get order in. Ended up signing up the day before I actually ordered. When I actually ordered, store credit was an option.

Just wanted to let everyone know that my issue was my wife was signed in to my email when she never uses my PC. So I applied for the financing under her Gmail account!
I felt really dumb for not checking that but she never uses my computer so that is why I never thought of it.
So, all is resolved on my end. So the problem is now that the Pixel XL is on back order I just ordered from Verizon and will be receiving it tomorrow! (I wanted to get from Google for the unlocked bootloader) but the phone will have everything I want(I want root for adaway mainly).
Thanks for all the replies.
