Q: Does the port credit stack with the trade-in credit?

Just got a confirmation today on a device delivered 12/21. The weekend and the holidays probably didn't help. Hang tight, they should probably mark it today or tomorrow

I was just concerned with being out of the 30 days due date. Because it took 2.5 weeks to actually receive my trade in kit.

Phone received by them since the 21st of dec. Still no update. How long has it taken everyone to get trade in amount after google received phone?

Same here. Mine got delivered on 12/22. No update yet.

Frankly, because of holidays I was expecting a response only by 28/29th only. Fingers crossed!

Oh. They are running pretty late now then.
I remembered mine was delivered as per USPS on 12/18. I received update from Fi that they received my kit on 12/22. Which was like 2-3 business days after actually receiving the kit (which I thought was not bad).

I am currently waiting for results of my trade-in evaluation.

I didn't get a "after careful review" e-mail, just a refund e-mail w/ amount of the difference. got $160 initially then got $277.50 as the additional refund after opening a case and escalating.....

note 9 trade in and initial TIV quote was $425 so i'm good now......

Go back a couple pages to see others who had issues. You're going to have to open a ticket to have them reevaluate it, but it seems like this go around they are making right on incorrect evaluations, you just have to wait for them to correct it once you get the ticket submitted.

FYI it seems like those who did it with phone support had a quicker turn around than those who went through chat.

Complete bullshit on value. Traded in perfect condition T-Mobile unlocked note 8, they claim it isn't. $350 expected has morphed into $90. Those bastards. Update: emailed support and its been corrected to full $350 tiv. Good result but I question why so many people having to do this.

Got full value of $350 for my Galaxy Note 8! Was getting worried because they received on Dec 22nd, but I guess its the holiday season to blame. Cheers everyone.

Did they provide any reason for reducing the value?
Don't give up yet and log a complaint providing pictures as proof when they ask.

They said the model was incorrectly reported, which is not correct. It was a mint condition T-mobile unlocked note 8. Emailed them about the trade-in and they have corrected to $350.

That's good to hear!
The model incorrect issue seems to be one they are correcting quickly.

Did anyone have the additional TIV refund (that the Google support email promised) actually post on their credit card? Mine has not in over a week.
