    Talking Glitch in the system!!! 2 phones @ discounted price!!


    Okay.. so I JUST got off the phone with a ever so friendly T-mobile customer service rep named April..


    I placed an order for my t-mobile G1 on September 24th... I'm always very paranoid when it comes pre-orders or online orders in general.

    So i never got a text conformation... i called T-mobile, one rep confirmed it, but didn't give me a conformation number (realized this the next day) so my paranoia continued.

    October 1st... a couple days later. I decided to check "my t-mobile" and click on "upgrade your phone" and GUESS WHAT! the phone was available to me for the discounted price of 179.99.

    I started thinking, well, i guess the first order didn't go through.. so I went ahead and ordered again.




    Well, I started thinking and my paranoia got the best of me AGAIN... i just called T-mobile 611...


    She looked at my account, she was dumbfounded... I got BOTH phones for the discounted price! I was eligible for only 1 discount... and got both!!!


    so... I'm getting 2 G1's on october 22nd! I ordered both before october 3rd... so i'll get them on the 22nd...

    what should i do with the other?!

    I think you should sell it to someone on this forum if both parties agree to a price.
    Just looking out for Android forum members.

    Did you end up getting two confirmation numbers kryptonkid07?

    We can no longer support such 3rd party claims; everything like this MUST go through Vincent and Shawn. Thanks!

    this "glitch" is still happening now. I just checked and it's offering me the phone at the 179 price too.

    Yeah, she gave them both to me...

    one order for 179 + 18 placed on the 24th, another for the same price placed on October the 1st.

    I'm going to place it on some local forums I'm part of (2 car forums and this one)...


    I'm going out now.. but when i get back I'll make another thread...


    What price should I ask for it? I'm thinking 300.
