So, while you may see $17.50 right now, they very likely will send updated reporting to make the Cash Back $5 (which is the advertised Cash Back amount for a $49.99 phone)

From staff.

That's why cancelled and ordered from Amazon. Better value and will get my product Wed.

I cancelled the order after I ordered from Amazon. Had sooooo much trouble placing an order online with multiple CC's. Finally, used Paypal to place an order. But, EVERY order went through to the CC used then credited.

I see. I still went w/ Virgin Mobile. not in a hurry for phone and Amazon charges tax too. zero compelling reason for me to return phone as i could easily sell it.

fak.. amzn really jacked me w/ cali tax; don't even shop thr a fraction as much anymore.

anyway, see no CB reported. how long does it usually take folks. i swear i have sh1t for luck w/ CB; RIP Bing

Even better!!

ordered 3 with FSS, great little media player with Skype and Groove Ip No need for stinkin' VM service.

NO SIM, locked to VM, no need to activate. Just use wifi, bluetooth streaming and video camera with Skype and GrooveIp etc. Can't beat this deal. I went through Amazon with fSS, can't stand VM webpage and support.

GD it. can't find this coinstar info... LINK?!

hakujin said:   Is VM that bad? Read good things. I wouldn't buy a phone for no service personally (find it pointless for my usage); looking to transfer from Sprint and use this for ~6 months, then maybe hop on nexus 4 - Simple Mobile bandwagon. But as it stands this phone plus $30mo per line/unl 3g (auto pay) seems HAWT.

Page Plus is garbage for data plans.

VM is really that bad. When I first got it 2 years ago, the service went down for an entire week. VM blamed the phone even though it worked everywhere else except in my area. When I asked for credit for the week I had no service, the operator agreed to do it once I received a replacement phone. When I called back to activate it, they flatly refused to honor the credit.

VM has tons of outages that lasts hours all the time. If you live in a rural area like I do, it will not work in most places even though AT&T and Verizon work fine.

The only reason I kept it was because it was $25/month for unlimited data and worked as a hotspot. This was a great bargain as I used 15-20GB a month. But once they put a limit of 2.5GB, I canceled my service and went with Verizon on Net10.

Thanks OP got one for my daughter for Christmas. The order page says it's on backorder, I hope not for too long.

I tried to placed the order using paypal twice. Finally it says there is nothing in your cart. no charge to my paypal.
it seems to be out of stock?

HTC EVO V 4G Prepaid Virgin Mobile $149.99
Samsung Galaxy Reverb Prepaid (virgin Mobile) $99.99

Been like 12 hours no order history when checking order status.

VM sucks so bad.

Didn't order from Amazon cause they charge sales tax and no CashBack. But their CS is the best!

No big loss..... VM is awful anyways.

GPS satellites do the rest - my cranky MIO went tits up today.

How good your phone/network service is depends on you location, around me Princeton/Philly/Wilmington
Sprint is excellent, almost never a dropped call. VM should be equivalent, except it probably
doesn't roam to Verizon. YMMV
...Will bet that VM will be shouting about it's great 4G service by next Fall.

Well, expect lots of dropped calls and outages.

VM may be on the Sprint network but they treat prepaid customers as second class citizens. If you don't believe me, go to Howards forum and they have an entire thread dedicated to outages which is like 2 years old.

I've had VM for a few years now and it's fine in Buffalo.

I made a rookie mistake of not clicking Cash Back link for the first order. Hope I will be able to cancel.

Made second order with Cash Back link. Hoping to use this as alternative to ipod touch.

been on Sprint for a few years; don't expect this to be any different. 1st thing I'll do is root the phone (instructions provided at xda) and remove the bloat; may consider flash to other CDMA carrier at some point. these two phones will just allow me to update from your Relic Hero and Moment, and provide nice transition to Nexus 4 or better via another MVNO

in for 1 just for the helluva it. shows backorder expected ship date 11/28. not sure if this was the original date or what. we shall see. i have the One X on ATT and its an awesome phone. many uses for this phone

20 minutes after the order was placed, i received an email stating:
Hello josney,
A total of $17.50 Cash Back has been reported to us today

I'm going to use this for the WIFI so I have something to play with while in the crapper. Can't beat that for $50!
