Does anyone have a clue when the next potential STV could be? I heard the last one was 10/28, and people above that are still waiting, but does that mean that STV could be really near, considering that it's been 13 days since?

no one besides them knows for sure but I like the sound of 11/11

I've been waiting 1 month exactly in STV (10/9). No updates.

this is getting weird.

typically STV dates are from 6-10 days..

but freeipods havent had a new STV for more than 2 weeks.....

Yeah
I am one of the people that went to processing on 10/27. Normally you would think, when your referrals get done you go to processing....then later to stv in the appropriate time frame. It all just seems odd to me. More like they do it in their own order. Like when they have the ipods in stock somewhere. Cause I got my 5th completed referral went to approval and processing all in about 30 minutes.

Gratis, if you're reading this. PLEASE STEP YOUR GAME UP!!!!!!!!

Today officially makes a full 2 weeks since you made a last STV date.

the last three STV dates were on a Wednesday, a Thursday, and a Friday so maybe it'll be tomorrow...who knows. I'm just worried it will take a LONG time to ship because since they waited so long you know there'll be a lot of 11/x's

Assuming the last 4 STV dates are shipping at the same time anways, it seems pretty obvious that either Apple didn't get the shipment out until after the 4th one or that Gratis didn't REALLY STV anyone till the 4th one so I'll bet that Gratis is just gonna do monthly STVs from now on. It won't make a difference in your wait time. You'll just be in processing longer than you're in STV.

ohh, so you're saying we'll go STV, but we'll get to "shipped" status faster? I get it, i think?

Any Predictions on how long this could take? im an 11/8 processing. D

Randyspawn

It is just my guess, but I think it'll go to STV at the end of the month and you'll get it from the first week of december on, depending on your location. That's the timeframe all of us 10s are looking at. If anything, I'd think the overall wait for you guys would be faster with Offercentric's competition and Apple's increased holiday production.

Oh. But,man...STV at the end of the month? That's a loooooong time. I live in Los Angeles, so I hope to get it a week within December. D

wow it's been a long time since last STV date. I really would like to see my status switch to STV even if would be the same amount of time if I sit processing for longer.

TheKing

has anyone heard anything or sent them an email through the Help FAQ? Just wondering because they haven't gone this long without making a new STV date in recent history. Maybe they should change the "What's This" button that says your order will process in 3-5 business days.

LaurencePLJ

17-11-2004 03:53:07

Hopefully we all go STV either wed,thurs, or Friday. I just has to happen one day of this week.

dude your wishing for nothing - gratis is a scam.

TheKing

looks like another weekend has come so we will have to wait it out to see if it happens next business week. I think it's funny how all the 10/x's were complaining about the long wait of receiving their iPod and being sent out of order and we're having problems just GETTING to STV. Go figure.
