I bought on 7/16 for $149 and it shipped 7/19. We should all return our $149 phones with a note saying to use them to fulfill the $99 orders.
Unfortunately, Tracfone has the worst return system. First you need to make hour long phone call to request return authorization. They will then send you a link to do a survey and at the end of survey, it displays a page saying ship it back to Xxx return center. There is no RMA number in their system to track you return. In the end, you still have to dispute with CC. That was my experience 3 months ago.

Theirs system sucks. Even if the order is cancelled, it STILL shows in Process.
Everyone whether they got the cancellation mail or not, has their orders cancelled.
They are just SLOW at emails, online status updates etc etc.
It's clear that they have NO intention of shipping phones at $99.
Not really, I know one $99 order shipped

in the other thread someone mentioned their $99 order shipped BUT total wireless has done an RTS, return to sender.
So TW is getting that phone back.

I hope they don't catch all of the orders laugh out loud

All 3 orders got their cancellation e-mail. I wouldn't hold my breath they will ship even though order status shows processing. I don't mind taking the risk with these TW deals but I will badmouth TW to anyone who will listen. They are very much a garbage company with garbage practices.

I don't get the cancellation email. The order is still processing. I don't think they will ship the phone. However, what can I do now instead of waiting?

If you go cheap, life goes cheap on you. Next time TW has similar phones on sale for $99, you are still going to fall for it.

File a dispute with PayPal or credit card company.

The INEPTness of the CSRs will cost the company. Lot of folks (or almost all) will do CC chargebacks and Paypal disputes. That will hurt the companies profitability.

If TFW had worded this as a price mistake and immediately said they would refund, people wouldn't dispute.

Also in my experience on SD - there are a LOT of price mistakes, but no company ACTUALLY posts an actual charge WITHOUT shipping first. There are authorizations which get removed, but no charge typically. Is it even legal for an online retailer to charge without shipping? The sale is complete only when the order ships.
Yeah, I'd probably do a chargeback as well if I didn't see a credit fairly soon. It sounds like their refunds can be pretty slow. But you never know with them … what happens one week may be completed different the next. Consistency definitely isn't their strong suit.

As far as the charge before shipping, I think that used to be more commonplace, but a lot of places have switched to only charging when shipped. (I believe because it's easier for them to deal with cancellations that way.) Some smaller places still charge right away and I don't think it's an issue as long as money is refunded for cancellations.

Oh, don't misunderstand. I have no qualms about admitting I will bite again because I can make a good chunk just trading them into another store. I would never use them legitimately for service nor would I recommend them to anyone as a service provider.

Filed a dispute with Paypal. Let's see what happens now. It will likely take several days.

Called TFW and told them I had a cancellation email, but they insisted no refund was due as I was not charged before shipping...LOL.

PayPal would contact TW about it and likely they won't respond, and PayPal would refund you in a few days. Been there done that.

Got the cancellation email which said card won't be charged since order was cancelled. What a joke! Filed a dispute through Chase... This is the message I received "We temporarily credited your account for $117.68. You should see it within 48 hours, but it could take up to 5 business days to process.
We also sent the merchant your refund request and will let you know once they review it, which could take up to 35 days. During this time you don't have to pay the disputed amount, and we won't charge any interest or fees on the transaction."

I never had to file a dispute but does it really take that long? 35 days? Lol
