chose to add this to the great equation of life, the universe, and
everything:
How long does it take to get a phone when you order on-line. I know people that started new service
and had their phone the next day. I check my order status and it says, "We received your order,
check back tomorrow."
They already charged my credit card, why does it take so long to get a box off the shelf and put a
label on it? Is there something more?
In November, I ordered late on a Sunday night. As of Wednesday morning, the
web site still said that. Wednesday afternoon, it said it had been shipped.
It arrived Thursday. Friday morning, the battery hadn't fully charged yet,
so I didn't activate it. When I got home late Friday night, the online
activation didn't work. I tried again in the morning, then called the
number for help and a nice lady activated it for me. The first time I tried
*228-1, it failed, but it worked the second time.
I can't answer about the credit card, as this phone was free, but two years
before that, I walked into a store and got a phone and they charged it to
my VZW bill the next month.
