    Just received the VIP Discounted Passport that I ordered Oct 04, using the Discount voucher this morning.

    Did not receive any Shipping notice or tracking number. Fedex simply showed up this morning at 8:00AM and delivered it here in Brampton, ON. Yippeeeee!

    Got mine too but did not get the VIP!!! It is the regular small box. Damn. Emailing Marie Sheel NOW

    Speculation or not it was called VIP during the order process. This is what is commonly called the VIP according to Blackberry themselves:

    NO NO NO NO NOOOOOOOOOOOO,

    Here's what Marie Sheel told me after I emailed concerning the contents of the 'VIP' Passport

    Everyone that have mentioned getting their VIP Passport are simply staying that they actually ordered this one instead of the 'Regular' Passport that had shown out of stock for may people, hence making them order the 'VIP' as that was the only one still in stock

    I'm just trying to save you an email, as it's now factual that there is nothing else to be expected from the 'VIP' conundrum

    Enjoy that device!!

    So you were hoping that by some miracle, even after emails as the above gone out into the web that you were going to get something extra? The unicorn is just behind your house then

    It's already been stated that the contents of the VIP Passport were the same as the regular Passport. They've clarified this to many users via email. You should be thankful that they honored the coupon code which was clearly a mistake and originally intended for accessories only.

    Enjoy your Passport!

    FYI:
    - ordered 'VIP' on Oct. 3 @ 10PM
    - received email from Marie last Friday, but no shipping email with tracking info
    - called FedEx on Sunday and last night, gave them my address, but they couldn't find anything
    - FedEx just dropped it off to my door @ 11:45AM

    I'm in Calgary by the way. I know what I'm doing for the rest of the day now: playing with my PP.

    Got mine even though I didn't receive any shipping email. I called FEDEX and it turns off DR dropped the package off on Friday and FedEx attempted delivery yesterday.

    If you haven't received yours, call FedEx.

    17 days since I put the order in and 13 days since I posted the below... I am today the proud owner of a "discounted U.S. VIP" device (a.k.a. "regular Passport")! Just received word from my wife that she has signed for it. CANNOT WAIT TO GET HOME!

    Got this email at about 1:22 AM PST...
    Attachment 304293

    Ordered the VIP device through the US store at about 1:30am on 10/4. Technically, it's been 3 business days since I put the order in and only 1 business day since my credit card was charged. Honestly though, knowing full well that the "regular passport" was sold-out on 10/3 and that AT&T wouldn't have the Passport until Jan/Feb 2015, I'm pretty stoked that I was even able to put an order in on 10/4 WITH the 25% discount code and it being the VIP package without any shipping charges to boot. The fact that DR or BB hasn't canceled this order is plainly awesome given that many people who purchased during the launch week haven't received their devices or have been back-ordered to "Lord knows when".

    I know some of us are anxious and getting impatient, but really... it's only been 3 business days. Even if we got a "shipment tracking" order with our second "order confirmation" email, we still wouldn't be holding a Passport in our hands today. Given the "mistake" made by BB with the coupon code and whether or not we should have been able to order VIP devices in the first place, if I'm holding my VIP device anytime in the next few days, I'd consider myself pretty damn fortunate. Even if it's next week, this is still a big "win" in my book since I probably wouldn't even have an order in the system for a regular non-discounted device in the system today.

    1. Ordering a VIP device when regular one was "out of stock" or "on back order" = WIN
    2. The above with a 25% discount = WIN
    3. The above with free shipping = WIN

    So DR had a huge spike in orders due to the weekend "mistake" and have taken some time to process through all these unexpected orders...
    So John Chen hasn't personally called each of us to "apologize" for this "mistake"...
    Don't let the lack of a "shipment notice" detract us from the WINs.

    =)

    And on what I said before "Don't let the lack of a "shipment notice" detract us from the WINs"... I never received a "shipment tracking notice", but damn I feel like a VIP today.

    Got two VIP Passports today. Nothing VIP about them, but free shipping will do.

    Who wants to buy a new, opened BlackBerry Passport? I have one that I bought a week ago in anticipation of late shipping from Shop BlackBerry that I need to sell now.

    Anyway, here are the two new ones.

    Thanks for providing "clues." Not everyone reads every Passport post to see how, what, when, where and why. I can only go with my interaction with Shopblackberry.

    And I am very thankful for having the Passport.
