I tried trial access then it asked me for full address and phone number so I entered everything from Empire State Building lol. After it went through and got it activated, I went back to Google wallet after I turned off my VPN. I changed back my address to the UK and now everything works just fine, your payment will also go through
It works, you just have to change your credit card adress to an america adress zip code and phone number so that google wallet will accept it even if your credit card is not an america one. Tthen activate it and change it back to your own adress and it works flawless.
Don't know if the payment will work at the end of the month. Just have to wait till 31th of July.
I signed up in the UK, using a US address on my UK card the day they announced it.... They've taken payments fine and it's all still working very well

All access is working fine ! Though I can't buy songs from Google play ! Error BB PP MM 20 ! from India BTW
Thanks!
I am going to wait for the official launch as my bank (Natwest) is charging me £1 when the payment comes out because it's in US Dollars..

Well ! What I told what was the fee Google charged you would be refunded back on cancellation! At least I got it refunded !
according to droid-life, that's the case.

This is the only bit of info that's available on Pixel's page.
"Pre-order Pixel and get a promo code for the Daydream View — on us"
Awesome news, I had no clue. Apparently that also applies for preorders through Fi
It actually says
Terms and Conditions
Offer applies to redemption of one Daydream View VR headset with the pre-order of a Pixel phone on the Google Store in the U.S. starting on 10/4/2016 and available while supplies last. After a qualifying purchase of a Pixel phone, a promo code will be emailed within approximately 4 weeks from the Pixel phone shipment date. The promo code must be used on the Google Store before 12/31/2016 and will expire after this date. The promo codes are not stored value, are for one-time use only, cannot be transferred to other users, cannot be exchanged for cash or cash equivalent, and have no balance after one-time use. Google Inc. is not liable for lost or stolen promo codes, or for expired promo codes that are not redeemed before 12/31/2016. To be eligible, user must be a US resident, age 13 or older, and have or activate a Google Payments account. Terms subject to applicable laws. Void where prohibited.
I just got my promotional e-mail from google mailing list that i signed up for about the pixel phones.
It says right in the text "pre-order pixel and enjoy the new Daydream View VR headset on us"
That should confirm that its a promo code for 100% off.
USA only. Nice one Google.
I ordered my phone from the Google Store right after the conference but before this email went out. I wonder if I will get a promo code or not?

I'm in the same boat. I'm sure there are many of us that ordered before the email went out. Wouldn't make sense for the first people to order to not get the free headset. Just in case, I'll have my torch and pitchfork ready to go. [emoji16]

Yea, ain't cool at all.
I hope I get the vr. That'll take the sting out of these pricey phones. Still can't believe no 64gb version.
NICE! Free VR headset if we ordered through Google. I didn't want one, but for free I'll sure as he'll try it.
Yes... I agree. 32gb to 128? I have a 64 gb 6p and its perfect.
Yeah. Don't understand the 32gb-128. And VR daydream is not free. You had to buy a way over priced phone first. Lol

US only..... Meh!
That's really not fair to people outside the US who have made pre-orders. Booo.
And Canada gets a 3 months free Google music subscription ONLY if you're not a member already.. bs.
I just got an email from Google saying that I am confirmed to get a code for the Daydream View about 4 weeks after my order ships. It's good that they don't leave you hanging wondering.

All models get this daydream offer? I haven't seen any emails about it yet after I ordered earlier.
It looks like they are expecting the mi mix 2 to be available in India Jan 24th 2018. My question is I believe these devices will ship with global preinstalled from the factory? If so I'm also assuming those of us that are lazy could wait and buy a version of the phone that has global preinstalled? It's been about 8 years since I last rooted and am not sure I want to mess with it again. Is what I stated accurate? Thanks

Hello,
Actually I think that it will be on sale in India starting tomorrow ! See http://www.mi.com/in/mix2/
Speaking of which, I am from Belgium and in 3 weeks I will be visiting Hyderabad for work for 15 days, and there seems to be a "Xiaomi Home" store 10 kilometers from my hotel ! Definitely I will have a visit.
Do you know if this is where we can have the best prices for any Xiaomi Phone ? Are they in general lower than on Gearbest or other online platforms ?

It is on sale, I've got one. That being said, make sure you check for the availablity of it in the Mi Homes as I think it might not be available there. If it is available there, it might cost Rs. 38,000 instead of Rs. 36,000 (this is just what I've heard about the Mi home pricing, I may be wrong on this).
On gearbest, this costs around Rs. 36,700 in sale without including shipping charges. So it is slightly cheaper to buy from India, though the bigger advantage IMO is that you're buying a sealed unit from the official seller, so you can be assured of a problem free experience.
Hi all
is that time of the year again
As you can imagine the fever is on and although this year samsung has a longer pre-order window (i think last year it shipped after 2 weeks) i know at least in UK and EU the preorders are open - including for those like myself that are doing it via the upgrade lounge.
Now i tried last night 2x in vain to successfully complete the upgrade but the only thing i have managed to get is 2 credit agreements with klarna and 2x deposits paid - with no phone actually ordered
i have spoken with Sam this morning and they said they are having issues with the upgrade and generally orders and will send an update email 24-48h hopefully sorting this out somehow...TBC
i have to say is very annoying that every year is happens - is like they dont learn any lessons to be prepared or open up in stages the upgrade
hopefully it will get sorted and i will have a pre order soon
when i was placing the upgrade it asked me to select a shipping date starting march 9th - but on the website it said shipping 8th march but get it a few days earlier if you preorder - whatever that means - will have to go thru all the palpitations again:
i went for the ultra black although for upgrade people the only option available is 128GB (im buying an 500GB SD) and 12GB RAM
that been said - im switching from s10 so for me it will be quite a jump in size
the only real disappointment is the 120HZ locked at 1080p - hope a future Software release will change that to 2K - but will see
how's everyone else's experience so far with pre-ordering, excitement thoughts etc?
thanks all and here's to March 9th (or 6th)
I am not in the UK - I am in the USA but I thought I would share my experience. Here, we can only ask to RESERVE our Phone, I am ordering the S20 Ultra 512 GB on ATT - I am also taking advantage of the TRADE IN and will be sending my PIXEL 4XL and will get $600 for the trade, plus the Earbuds (or an additional 200 credit) all in - my total cost after the trade in will $999 US and I will have a new pair of Earbuds. If they let me, I will probably just take that as a credit and get the price down to $799. I believe I will be able to actually order the phone on the 22nd (I forget exactly what they said) but it did say it would be shipped to arrive by the 6th.
I can't wait!
I am in the UK , and just had a similar problem. Put in last years upgrade loan number. It replied and said I could order the upgrade , chose the ultra , filled in details of old phone (s10 plus). chose delivery date ( 10 March earliest), did a couple of other box ticking, then redirected to Klarna , filled in all the details . Passed the checks, filled in bank details , paid the deposit by card, that was successful. I can't remember much else other than I was redirected back to samsung requesting by login credentials. After logging in I still had the items in the basket. I received an email from Klarna saying the direct debit had been set up. My credit card has been debited by Klarna. So I don't know if it is ordered or just paid for the experience . Anyway cut long story short, spoke to samsung customer support , they said they are waiting for Klarna to let their system know that credit has been set up and that I should get an email from samsung within 24 hours detailing the order.
at least u didnt do it 2x like i did
d'oh
seems samsung is still scrambling in the dark to fix the upgrade lounge issues - just got a text saying they still dont know what happened and are investigating ...i mean really how hard can it be - is multi billion company!!
Yeah I`m in the USA and we can`t pre-order until the 21st, I did do the the RESERVE for the pre-order, and since I did the RESERVE to pre-order thing i will get 35.00 credit on top of the 200.00 , which can not be used on the price of any of the S20`s models, it`s in the fine print, so I `ll probably just use it towards the galaxy active 2 watch. also I will be trading in my Pixel 4 xl and getting the 600.00 trade in, plus I`m selling my Oneplus 6, and will be getting the 512gb 16gb S20 Ultra.
finally got the order email confirmation coming thru - now waiting for 2nd order/agreement to be cancelled and refunded
the wait begins

I am glad someone has been successful. No such luck , I applied again after numerous chats and phone calls with samsung and klarna to confirm and it failed again at Klarnas end. I been notified by the credit agencies that one hard search has been done by klarna. that was my first attempt to upgrade. I don't know if the 2nd attempt has resulted in another hard search but too many of these in a short space of time can impact on your credit rating. I emailed klarna asking them to let me know when it is safe to try again.
The samsung communtiy site is overloaded with comlaints from people suffering the same problems
i think is best to just let them know the agreement numbers and they will sort it out on their side, but defo dont try again until they fix it or you will end up with bad credit score
is a shame they cant make this process to work - every year same non sense

How did you get 20% account specific code? I'm only getting 10%
I got an account specific code. Only opened my account in December for a £50 off £100 spend. Paid that off instantly.
The code is linked below, and allowed me to pay off in full so no credit needed.

Did you use PC or phone to order. What browser did you use. There are still people complaining on the samsung community upgrade thread
https://eu.community.samsung.com/t5/Galaxy-S20-S20-S20-Ultra/S20-Upgrade-Lounge-Issues/td-p/1556960
I used Samsung browser on S10+
Took about 20 attempts suddenly the pay page changed and included all the options not just Klarna finance, and then I could complete the order

Used safari on my iMac literally took me less than a couple of minutes to complete the whole process.
Checked the thread and this is a new purchase not an upgrade from any Samsung phone, hopefully they have fixed it all by 2021!
Like many i tried to purchase P6P via Google through klarna ,as we know klarna got it wrong and only approved credit for less than the price of the phone and so no one who would got the finance could purchase it. In the end I got it via Currys and I contacted klana to cancel my contract and remove it from my credit record. They have done this and now sent me an email with a £20 Amazon voucher as a way of apology....so check your emails.
yea got the same email however i havent asked to cancel the account with them yet. I was about to buy some earbuds on amazon so the £20 will be of use.
Same here. I bought out right in the end from Google but the whole thing was a bit of a joke. £20 voucher anyway and account still open so far. Not sure what if everything the situation has in credit score.

My email stated the credit check would be removed from the records by the end of the year so it shouldn't have any bearing on your credit score.
