- I'm sorry how this sounds but REALLY?!?!?!?! I've got orders (yes plural) in the system before you THAT STILL HAVEN"T BEEN PROCESSED let alone shipped.
cogsinister has been waiting since the 24th with no info whatsoever. and many others.
Good for you that your getting yours but don't mind us who might be a little disgruntled that you order a week after us and get yours first.
I had been confirmed that it had been shipped out by multiple CSR's, and my card has been charged. Perhaps it went through more speedily as I ordered via the Canadian website? I have no idea.
I think in my case I will turn out ok, and do feel quite bad about receiving an order (possibly) before others, it seems like someone has dropped the ball and decided to play soccer with it.12-08-11 02:16 PMLike 0 - Well, another call to SBBCA and spoke to John.
Nov. 30 order - "I don't know why it is still pending. I can escalate it." 3rd time escalating
Nov. 2 order - "I don't know why it is still pending. I can escalate it." 2nd time escalating
shipped order - we ship via Canada post. We have no way of tracking your order.
I'm not going to see the Nov 30 and Dec 2nd order before Christmas.12-08-11 02:44 PMLike 0 -

FYI:
Ordered from Toronto
Nov 28th - Ordered
Nov 29th - Email stating ship out will be delayed
Nov 30th - Status = Inventoy hold
Dec 2nd (between 8-11pm) - Status changed to shipped
Dec 9th - Still says shipped, no tracking number email
I haven't complained to them yet as I want to leave their lines open for those who have had the horrible experience of orders gettings cancelled to get through (As I'm sure I'd be fuming). If It hasn't arrived by this time next week I'll start to lose it.12-08-11 03:18 PMLike 0 - I have made a discovery. At least I can now confirm my package is in the mail system.
UPS: Tracking Information
Track by reference - check off mail innovations
(pay no attention to destination Country - United States)
In reference number, put your SBBCA order#
You cannot track it, but it will show that it is in their system, and that means it has at least left the facility at SBB.
Here is what mine looked like:
Shipment Reference: SBBCA645xxxxxxxx
Shipment Type: Mail Innovations
Ship Date Range: 11/10/2011 - 12/08/2011
Destination Postcode/ZIP Code: R7Nxxx

Exxxx312-08-11 03:47 PMLike 0 - I got similar results using the above method. I assume that once it is actually in the mail there will be tracking numbers shown below the Shipment Reference.
This probably means were at probably another week from receiving the Playbooks, if not longer unless they get upgraded to a faster method. It is probably beyond the point to upgrade the shipping method or speed of delivery.
They are Christmas presents, so if they do go ground, they may not be here next week, but probably by the week after, which is still before Christmas.Last edited by robsteve; 12-08-11 at 03:54 PM.

We may have been making too many assumptions on what the process was. It could have been that shipped meant they shipped the Playbook to the UPS fulfillment center, where UPS has to package it in a shipping box, label it and then forward them in bulk to the nearest USPS sorting station. In other words, shipped didn't mean shipped to us and not until we get a tracking number is it actually shipped to us.12-08-11 04:02 PMLike 0 - It should and we should be able to track it on the USPS and then Canada Post web sites when it ships.

No tracking information yet. I am going to call mail innovations later and see if I can get to the bottom of this.
If anyone else can in the meantime, that would be great, will probably have to cite our order# as reference as that's all we have. I am thinking we will not get an official tracking# as UPS is just the middleman in this.

Dec 2nd, I phoned BlackBerry (used that special number 1-888-805-6789) spoke to a very nice lady who assured me that my order was shipped Dec.1st and would be in my hands in 5 or 6 days. Damn I hope she wasn't stringing me along
Maybe tomorrow, Dec.9th I will have my new PB12-08-11 04:29 PMLike 0 - I have made a discovery. At least I can now confirm my package is in the mail system.

- same here, does this trick work only for canada, or for the US packages as well? i heard some people are getting them through usps, did u have to pay extra to get it by ups?12-08-11 05:33 PMLike 0
- Maybe. Also maybe my package hasn't left their facility.... OR maybe it has not been shipped at all! Afterall I don't trust shopbb that much now.12-08-11 05:44 PMLike 0

I enter it exactly as shown below.
Notice that the SBBCA is typed in as SBBCZ??
Notice the date?
Also the two XX's in the middle?
I challenge you. Enter in any tracking number that is simular to yours and you will see it will find anything for any postal code.

*pop - hope bubble*12-08-11 06:15 PMLike 0 - First post here although I've been lurking since I ordered a playbook from shopblackberry.com.
Here's my order timeline:
29 Nov placed order for Playbook for $199 (hadn't heard about the $10 discount) A confirmation email was received right away. A few days later my order status changed to "shipped" when I logged in to SBB.
5 Dec Called the number provided in this forum and the rep said it would actually ship that day.
8 Dec (today) I got an email stating my order had shipped with a USPS tracking link. The link shows it as received in Winston-Salem NC on the 7th, with delivery estimated for the 10th. Don't know why it takes 3 days to go less than 100 miles.
I also entered the tracking number at UPS and they report receiving the package on the 5th (the day the SBB rep said it would ship) and transferring it to the USPS in Greensboro on the 7th.
So far I really don't have any problem with Shopblackberry.com. They said there would be delays due to the holiday sales volume and they told the truth when I inquired about the shipping status by phone. I am also thankful that they continued to take orders after every other retailer seemed to be sold out with most saying "in-store only" with all area stores reporting "out of stock". There was quite a lag in receiving the shipment notice but it was in time for me to anticipate the arrival date.
I'll post an update if there is any problem actually receiving the Playbook.
