Ha ha, yes you're right. Got exactly at 14:57 AEST, same as last week.
OmG, yeah u are right, exactly 7 days , at same time at 7.06 am !!
anyone got their phone delivered ????
Nope, Qld metro ordered on the 4th.
Yes with optus
I ordered on the 4th as well in the afternoon. Still have not received it
Anyone received their 256gb phone. I’m still waiting :(
Still waiting too (also waiting for the buds)
buds , i got within a week.
So should have gone into the stores (and optus) to try and get one. Sigh…calling them tomorrow to cancel.
Thinking the same however the 1/2 price is the deal breaker here … for another 2 weeks.
.
Another 5 weeks according to the chats I've have in their chat. Do they really know though….:(
No update for my 256G black
Telstra seems to be playing with customers' patience here!
Ya this is pushing it. I can't believe they don't exactly know when the stock will arrive. The lack of communication is what sucks.
Totally agree, it is Telstra after all though so the lack of communication probably shouldn't come as a surprise to anyone who has had the misfortune to deal with them before. My hate for Telstra is strong but $499 for a Pixel 7 (when the only alternative at the time was a JB deal of $799 which left me with a $200 gift card I didn't want) was an absolute cracker of a deal and will hopefully be enough compensation for the pain of dealing with the big T.
Still waiting for 128gb black ordered on the 4th with a buisness account with over 20 plans on it, lol
Why take back orders still if they're filling peoples orders randomly?
I dont understand how a big company like Telstra could take so long to get stock?
I checked google after i ordered to see how long they'd take to ship one and it was within a week.
Years ago I remember getting the deals for phones shipped from hong kong and even back then the order shipped way faster.
The delay might not necessary be on Telstra's side but also from google as a supplier.
All the Pixel 7's are OOS on the Google store. Have to join a waiting list.
Are you sure? I just went to Google store and able to add any of the variants to the basket. It says delivery 28-29 Aug to my suburb in NSW
Same
Hopefully this means that the ones from Telstra are not that far away from being sent to us.
@Rodo: Google probably has different stocks to fulfill Telstra's orders or else I don't see why it takes so long since Google store stocks are always available since 4 August.
You're right! Last night and this morning when I checked, all variants were OOS.
Cancelled the order I had for my sister as unknown ETA even after weeks of waiting.
We know pixel 7 stocks are plentiful in the world and we know anything can be shipped anywhere in the world in a few days so someone is not being honest at Telstra and/or google.
The waiting situation sucks but who else is shipping them for $499?
What's the plan going forward, purchase a different phone, wait until it goes on sale again or just pay the going rate?
She will probably grab an iPhone SE or something at this point as she is coming from a 5 year old Chinese android and only went with pixel 7 because I nudged her that way.
Shame Telstra couldn't be a bit more upfront on the stock wait time, if Telstra could give an ETA maybe your sister wouldn't have to go to the dark side. lol
I haven't been following Apples prices but I'm guessing the SE is a bigger hit to the back pocket as well?
@shutuptakemymoney101: Yup cost more and it's a bad phone but will feel amazing after an old android.
@noise36: Pixel 8 is literally just around the corner, P7 should be on sale again soon - If you can I'd advise her to wait.
Probably wont see that price again until after the pixel 8 is released
Pixel 7 is available but not with the 1/2 price , its only available for $998. Eg . OW or Jb at $699 and OW price beat to $664.05, $164.05 more.. huhhhh
Talked on the chat tonight
Thanks for waiting, I have checked the stock system and it will replenish within 4-6 weeks due to high demand,
Looks like cancel is the best option.
This is not the news I wanted.
I just did mine thru Chat , refund receipt send to SMS straight away and bought from google store using the student beans discount for 599, arriving 31st to 1september , finger crossed. The OW price beat of JB hifi would be the last resort but student beans price is irresistible after telstra long wait
This friday will be third week of wait for me - 256G. Within 4-6 weeks till replinishment, not long to go. W8_w8
I'm in the same boat but talking to them again tonight they said 4-6 weeks from now….. Hope they are wrong.
Will they also issue a new invoice with the revised date when it ships? I will be asking for that when I contact them again tomorrow, 3 weeks after the order placement.
Receiving the device almost 2 months after the purchase is a long delay and they should change the date on the invoice for warranty!
8 weeks from now…….May be, some ozbargainers can claim TRS with a new invoice by then.
Update: Telstra chat confirmed that they won't issue a new invoice but the warranty will start from the disptach or when it is delivered! So, might not work with TRS claims unfortunately.
After cancelling my telstra order , at last good news that google has dispatched my order after only few hours. So, maybe google is upset telstra selling too cheap and holding the stock away from telstra until pixel 8 released .
Obsidian 128GB is currently "In Stock" on https://www.telstra.com.au/mobile-phones/mobiles-on-a-plan/g….
If someone is still waiting for this version - can be a point to raise it with Telstra.
Good to know. Thanks for pointing this out. Snow is still showing out of stock!
It is showing in stock but it states the following underneath: 'This device is extremely popular. Place an order today and we'll deliver it for free when it's back in stock. We expect delivery in 4 weeks or more.'
My 128GB obsidian order just got dispatched :) Finally!!!!
When did you order?
My sister ordered it on her business account at around 5pm on the 4th.. tracking says It's at the sorting center in NSW I'm In VIC so hopefully i get it mon-tue
My 256Gb obsidian arriving today, ordered 4/8 living in Darwin metro.
Lucky!!!! This gives me hope, I leave for a holiday on the 5/9 and I ordered the same (Melbourne)
I just got shipping notification for my 128GB obsidian. It was ordered 6/8.
Same. Expected delivery on Sunday. Really?
Same 128gb obsidian ordered 6/8
Just got a text that my black 128GB P7 ordered on the 4th has shipped.
Would hate to be anyone who recently cancelled to jump on the other more expensive pixel deals.
No news on 256GB ordered the 4th….
Me either
Hi PissLUR, thanks for choosing Telstra. We know you're eagerly awaiting your order and we're sorry for the delay. As soon as stock is available, we'll let you know.
Snow 128GB
It's automated. Exactly a week after your order.
Omg I just got a dispatch SMS! Woohoo
Ordered on Saturday afternoon back order. Awesome.
Did you order the 128 or 256?
Ordered on the 6th (128gb black) has just been dispatched. Qld metro
Mine just shipped ordered on 5th
Ordered on 4th still waiting. Got the weekly auto apology earlier today. :)
Just got the dispatch SMS for my 2 128gb's. Yay!
Received mine this morning after receiving my shipping notification on last Friday.
Was that the 256 or 128 model?
128GB
Thank you for the response :)
Got my delivered by Startrack this morning (128GB).
My 128 model got delivered this morning as well
So looks like we are just waiting for the 256GB models.
….and 128GB Snow.. A lot of the Obsidian (black) 128GB orders were fulfilled as it appears!
Still waiting ony 256. Screen protector and case are ready for the phone. I hope stocks will arrive this week 😅
Which Screen Protector did you get?
I also have the case but also the USB C to Headphone jack adaptor ready to try to use up a little more life of the old headphones I have. I did buy the Telstra Pixel buds deal as well but……yeah we won't talk about that….
Screen protector - https://www.amazon.com.au/dp/B0BYSB1LNZ?ref_=cm_sw_r_apan_dp…
Tpu case - https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/134588009147?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mk…
Both are of good quality, made in China. Hopefully it will fit well on the phone. Which headphone jack did you get pls. I got the pixel buds too and yes, not worth talking about! My wired soundmagic($99) sounds heaps better!
Pixel 7 Obsidian 128gb
ordered on 6 Oct
delivery notification SMS on 25 Oct
received today on 28 Oct
What's it like living in the future?
Can u pm the winning lotto numbers this week. Ill go half shares with the winnings
Who won the AFL and NRL grand finals?
XD
Collingwood won the 2023 grand final :-)
Yay, 128 arrived today, ordered on the 5th
Anyone going to bother to try and get the invoice date changed?
I mean we're losing out of 3 weeks of warranty…
someone mentioned this earlier
Update: Telstra chat confirmed that they won't issue a new invoice but the warranty will start from the disptach or when it is delivered! So, might not work with TRS claims unfortunately.
OK, cool. Thanks mate.
Still waiting for 256gb ordered on the 4th in the afternoon
Me too…
Me thr33
Me Four
@melbstheburn: 5 + buds
@Matt88: -1, I cancelled.
Just finished chatting with Telstra rep. and i am still waiting for mine.
September 19 next month they are expecting to have stock of 256G.
Wow, more than 6 weeks to get stock of a standard model, they are not fast)
I would not be surprised if the Pixel 8 comes out before these are available.
I just don't understand how this can take 6 weeks - maybe travelling by sea with quarantine. I've received custom made laptops from Apple and Lenovo within 10 working days. Here - standard models.
@foxdenis: They took the orders without the stock. Unsure how they get their stock but not having any to begin with is leaving them to rely totally on another company (Google I assume) Rep. told me they can't update their stock online for 48 hours so there is a delay and hence why the back orders - but I ordered at 5am on the first day. Something fishy here :D
5 days before I'm travelling… hope I manage to get my TRS.
Hope you are declaring it when you come back.
Who said they're coming back?
It's automated. Every week after ordering, pretty much to the minute. I get them Fridays 1:04PM AWST for my 256GB ordered on the 4th.
