GREAT SALES REP - call him Monday (am) to order

This guy is great!! Throw him your biz.

I don't know why you'd want to wait until Monday when you can order them through telesales now :confused:

The rep I got said it would ship within 1 to 3 business days. You all can wait until Monday but I'm sure the people who order them now will have priority since we ordered ours 4 days in advance :)

Thanks again for posting that up Noco!! :headbang2

That's very odd because the rep. I got didn't have any problem taking my order for one. You might try calling back and seeing if you get a different person. The guy I got asked what I wanted to do and I told him I need to replace my 3 year old 5500 with another Sanyo. He asked which one and I told him the M1. It took him a minute or two to find it and look into it for any promotions but there were none so I had to pay the full $349.99. I don't care tho, I knew I was going to get this phone so I was just happy to get the chance to order it prior to the rumor'd/official launch date.

I just called the standard (800) 480-4727 number and got transferred to Telesales. I think it might depend on the rep. you get if some of you guys are getting turned away. I was able to get my order in tho so I'm stoked.

Matt -- HB Cali

That really sucks. If I had known you guys would have problems I would have gotten this guys direct number so you can call him. He might be screwing up tho and ordering a phone he's not supposed to order until the 3rd. Although he was very slick and tried very hard to pressure me into opening up a new line he didn't know squat about this phone. Man I sure hope he selected the right one. That would suck if a Katana or something showed up in a few days lol.

Congrats!! Mine was $389.11.

$349.99 phone

I have a feeling those 194 units will go FAST. Maybe not PS3 fast but still pretty darn fast.

Somebody get me a sales contact name and number please.........

I called back and told them I wanted his name and direct line in case something came up with the order but they would only give me his employee number. It's CC837050. The only problem is that after they gave me his employee number they told me that if I asked to speak with him by that number they would'nt be able to transfer me since nobody would know who it was and they don't give out names??? That's funny because he told me his name when we first spoke, I just forgot it. What a joke. I don't know how you other guys can get direct contacts at hat place. Maybe this chick I spoke with wasn't in Telesales or something, I dunno. I tried man, sorry.

ok so I just ordered my M1 from telesales and at first the lady seemed like she didn't know what I was talking about, but then I gave her my phone number and then she said "oh yeah now I see it" then when I asked her to overnight the phone she said that it would take 3-5 days for customer security or something. I don't understand that. Is anyone on here getting their phone overnighted? and does anyone know how long it will really take for the phone to get to me because this is the first time I ordered from telesales. oh yeah thanks NOCO for the sweet tip.

Everyone that has had access to it on here has done an excellent job with describing it, showing it off. . . it's like I could buy it now. Thing is, I've never dealt with telesales.

You're right. Just having a wild hair to do some impulse buying. I've had my 5500 for over 2 1/2 years, and it's been the best phone I've ever had in my possession. It's in great shape, too. I'm just looking to "upgrade" to a durable, powerful, and feature-laden phone (like the 5500, for its time) relatively soon. I check back from time to time on the latest reviews from you all. . . makes me sometimes wish I still worked for Sprint so I could get the lowdown before launch.

Called and got it finally.

:eyeroll: Did you all get the same as this below??????
1) Next day shipping not avaiable (only 3-5 business day shipping)
2) Conf. number was 4 letters and 3 numbers
The 4 letters and 3 numbers is good, that's the actual order # that can be used to get tracking info later.

I've called a lot of times so far and haven't had much luck. I actually ordered a new Motorola KRZR recently and want to return it (It's within 30 days) and switch it for the Sanyo M1. The KRZR is brand new, never opened, never even touched. My 30 days will expire by December 12th so time is of the essense. Oh man...

Remember from the M610, just cause you have a confirmation number, and an order number, doesn't mean squat in Sprint's eyes. You'll get it, when you get it. I got my confirmation number the first day available on the web for the M610, then got the order number on Monday, and now today, I got an email that states I *MAY* get it on Monday. When I've talked to the reps, I get all types of different answers (just read the M610 posts). Seems Sprint is going with a new way of launching phones. Selling stuff they don't know when they'll get.

I just called the 888-253-1315 telesale's number to order my Sanyo m1. My first rep was a woman who was trying to sell me a new line of service with the phone. When I told her that I wanted to just upgrade without a new line of service, she told me she would put me on hold for 2-3 minutes....15 minutes later...I ended up getting transfered to another rep who gladly took my order...threw in an EXTENDED battery as well...my total came out to $424. We'll see what comes in my mail...ha ha....

Argh its annoying, I don't see how some of you are able to order? any insight would be nice, Some of these reps seem to be knowledgeable about the Sanyo m1 being released soon and they are taking your orders ahead of time, and will PROCESS later....thats the only explaination i can get out of this.

Hopefully different situation IMO:
610: Launch on internet only; no rep period can find any in inventory, backorder, etc.

M1: No official launch yet; good reps (including insiders on SU) can see good visibility of inventory and place orders

Is this the M1 or the PS3??? LOL J/K I will call Employee Telesales tomorrow and see if I can order it. My only gripe is tha Employee Telesales says that they can't bill phones to account but I think that is BS because my credit class allows for BTA and they have refused to BTA when others have billed to their account before. I mean I don't think they shouldn't allow BTA just because we are employees but I will ask again for BTA and see if they will do it for me. If not I will have to wait until it shows up on the Advantage Club. I am still waiting for telesales to give me a credit for the data card and router I returned.

Equipment is not able to be billed to the account, but was told since there was a credit remaining that there should be "no problem".... yeah... right.. lol STILL had to use my credit card while the funds were readily available.... pisses me off.... grrrrrrrrrrrr....)

But, hey.... M1 on its way. Stated that she chose overnight, for no charge, since there was all the issues.... GOD I HOPE IT GETS HERE TOMORROW! lol

Well im on hold right now with Employee Care trying to order the phone. He says he can order it for me but he has to call employee care to see if they can take off a code that is on my account that is not allowing them to give me the lower price for the phone. He had to transfer me to care to see if they can remove the code. What a nightmare this was because I hard ordering a Treo for my mom and then she didn't like it so I kept it and then the phone was having problems so I had to get it exchanged and since I ordered the exchange under my number through telesales and they ordered it for the lower price it messed up my upgrade. I am on hold now with a really nice lady from care who is trying to help me out. Hopefully she can do something for me.

Update: OK well the wonderful care rep was able to remove that code for me and notate the account. Now I am waiting to speak to someone on Telesales to order the phone. I hope they can bill to my account. :fingers:

Update 2: OK guys so I was able to order mine from Telesales, the total came out to $177.01 and I should get it by Monday. She gave me an order # and she was able to bill it to my account. SWEET! :headbang2 I should get it right before my birthday! What an awesome bday gift! :bday5: :bday1: :blow1: :Present1: :happybirt :Party:

Unfortunately guess I waiting to long to call, as he said my phone is showing up on backorder, even though his computer shows 235 are in stock (???).

I called 866-306-7056 and she said that this is a good number to call back because she thought I was a store calling in.

12-01-2006, 12:00 PM
WHATEVER-Just telling you what was told to me-the Razr sucks so I am returning it within the 30 day period-the M1 has not been posted on the Sprint website-YES the people in CS have just heard of it-Yes people are calling to place orders-no they are not going to get it when they think-They are being put in a B/O Que-and then the next contradiction-well, if you are not being billed then no order has been placed-correct?????? Legally, they cannot bill you-your card for merchandise that they cannot ship....and telesales-well, never heard of the M1-so keep all this fantasy going rather entertaining-i really like the person who said they were being given an extended baterry with their M1 gratis- that was prime. I mean if a company can make money and sell you something they will-so logically speaking why would some people be turned away and others be given a confirmation order#-Sprint wants to make money-that is their job-that is how they stay in business.

WHATEVER-Just telling you what was told to me-the Razr sucks so I am returning it within the 30 day period-the M1 has not been posted on the Sprint website-YES the people in CS have just heard of it-Yes people are calling to place orders-no they are not going to get it when they think-They are being put in a B/O Que-and then the next contradiction-well, if you are not being billed then no order has been placed-correct?????? Legally, they cannot bill you-your card for merchandise that they cannot ship....and telesales-well, never heard of the M1-so keep all this fantasy going rather entertaining-i really like the person who said they were being given an extended baterry with their M1 gratis- that was prime. I mean if a company can make money and sell you something they will-so logically speaking why would some people be turned away and others be given a confirmation order#-Sprint wants to make money-that is their job-that is how they stay in business.Sorry man, your just not getting the right person. I spoke to a couple different reps in telesales and about half of them knew of the phone. Some people prolly just dont' read the email's that are sent out to notify people of new products. It sounds like your just trying to start some crap with all of us here who have ordered the phone already. Kinda stupid for them to sell us phone, charge our accounts/cards and haveit be back ordered. You have been contradicted to many times so far regarding us being charged considering you saying they can't charge us unless they have it in stock to ship. So i'm going to be the first one to ask you to just be the nice person you think you are and leave the thread.

honestly id say theyre "backordered" just because of the date (its still 2 days before launch) and theyll ship out monday

It may be "backordered" officially tell monday, but they could already be being shipped out though. I wouldn't put it past a company like sprint though to sell the phones to the people who actually know about the phone and are asking for it and not mention it at all tell the "official date" that they have set to sell it.

12-01-2006, 12:27 PM
oh i agree id bet some are going out today but still wouldnt get them until monday earliest so either way Sprint gets their way and we dont touch them until after Sunday either way. Like I said i bet that backorder status really means nothing

Oh and the part where "it depends on what rep you speak to...that is great. The M1 is probably the best phone Sprint is realeasing in the past year-Oh and they just forgot to inform all their reps????? Ok I Believe that.
You are sure to piss a lot of people (very intelligent and experienced people) off shortly if you continue down this path. Eleven posts since 2005...how many of those are hateful so far?

Well i agre but cmon the guy's got a point. These reps all know about the m610 and m1, they both release in 2 days. I promise they all were inofrmed of the launch. Some are just playing dumb to not sell them before launch and some prob just didnt read the email/memo yet obviously. But like he said for 2 high end flagship phones its hard to believe that many telesales/CS reps havent heard about it this close to launch

I just called four times and spoke with four different reps and each one said that the M1 is not available for order and will not be available until January. I personally don't believe this and will try again on Sunday.

I just called the warehouse (866 306-7056) and was told that my phone was placed on "backorder status" because the M1 doesn't officially launch until Sunday. The rep I got, Leslie, said the phone will ship on Monday from INDIA and that I should have it by Wednesday or Thursday. Makes sense to me.

Yeah, they are probably aware that it won't ship until Monday so they added an extra day or two from the standard 1-3 days they always give.

id assume so, 5 business days tops would put you at thurs which would make sense if they ship out monday then 2-3 business days past that. I think Sprint got the picture after the m610 launch to not sell things before they have them/before launch. But yes theyll all most liekly go out Monday morning since Sunday is official launch and can be officially sold/distributed to customers

I dont think this is any reason to get bent out of shape liek some poeple are getting. This is totally different than the m610 launch where they screwed people (like myself) who ordered the date it was officially launched on Sprint's site meanning they should have had them in stock ready to ship the next day. This is still PRE-LAUNCH technically and they have no obligation to ship it out before the launch date, which would mean Monday like Ive been saying. Be happy to have one reserved at least and get it in a few days. Im prob going to pick up a m1 also since I got screwd on the m610 and had to cancel my order earlier this week

If your gonna take a payment for a phone you should at the very least let that person know theyre on B/O and will ship such and such date. Thats how I look at it!

In a perfect world I would agree......but this is Sprint we're dealing with. I'll be very happy if my phone actually does ship out on Monday. If it doesn't I'll probably cancel my order since once the first deadline is broken it's likely it'll be a week or more before it actually does ship. I'll wait until it's in stores if that's the case.

klmsu19
12-01-2006, 01:13 PM
well look at the m610 they did the same crap BUT waited over a week to admitt a backorder. I ordered thansgiving and found out almost a week later, wed, they still had none in the warehouse.

I understand that totally. But if you only ordered yesterday which is when the first report came in that they were taking orders, Monday going out is not unreasonable considering UPS does no pickups Sat/Sun for Sprint seeing as today is Fri. They could be getting shipped out tonight, I dont have all the answers on that though. Like rofl said we know they have them in the warehouse, but like I said earlier we are all ordering PRE LAUNCH and they dont really have an obligation to ship before the launch and we all knowingly ordered before the launch date

12-01-2006, 01:16 PM
OH...Yes I see SPRINT is like that...Really, what I think is that you are trying to get people to call Sprint so they release that M1 earlier than they plan-Well, they will release it when they are ready....OK I love this...this is too good.

I just spent $1200 dollars on phones-and yes that is right Sprint is witholding my chance to purchase a $349.99 dollar item....I get that makes perfect sense. I mean they would just pass up a chance to make another $349.99 plus tax and shipping.

I was on hold for 30 minutes before I got through the shipping dept. and he told me it was shipped and he gave me the tracking number. The lady from telesales told me that they always ship 2nd day but they say 3-5 business days because they do not know how UPS works in that particular area.

Gee, for all we know aliens may have now invaded the planet and replaced all Sprint sales reps with clever multi-lingual robots that have taken control of our minds in an effort to reduce us all to wimpering boobs. Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.

Sweet, just called the warehouse to see if i could get a tracking number. The guy said that he extremely doubts that there would be one considering i had just ordered it this morning (was around 9:30am). He got my info so he could look it up, couldn't find it by my name or sprint number, but when he looked it up by my order number he found it and gave me a tracking number, he was extremely surprised. So hopefully we get them tomorrow or if not on monday.

I think it may say Back Order but that's just because its not released yet. Oh, and don't bother asking for a tracking number. Most reps won't give you one. When I ordered my 9000 they said there was no tracking number and I got the phone the next day (free overnight).
