Ok guys, here is my story, I hesitated to write because I was still expecting delivery for all, but it is taking long for most. but I'm still optimistic.
I ordered the BB Passport two days before the coupon came out for the price of $800 and was sent an e-mail for a back order device. I waited, then I found about the reduced price (non-vip) I ordered it. then I knew about the (VIP) edition....AND I ordered it. then I called DR to ask for a cancellation since none of the devices is supposed to be delivered. they told me we can't cancel orders, all what you can do is reject delivery from coriuer (no wonder BB is losing money having extra cost for shipping and returns while they can activate cancellation before shipping) any ways, I submitted two requests to cancel all but keep the VIP edition. I received the $800 with in three days (no wonder! paid full price) but I rejected delivery. for this i'm waiting for a refund since my CC was fully charged. the non-vip version was successfully cancelled and the hold on CC was released. the VIP edition is still there fully charged on credit card since 4th October. everyday I'm bugging Digital River "Philippines" call centre and they definitely have no idea what's going on and maybe don't know what is blackberry is . all what I get is your order is complete wait for delivery.
