LuisOlachea Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 Response to our offer on the MiFi 500 LTE by Novatel Wireless this week was so great that we have depleted our inventory. Please don’t worry though, we have a shipment already en route to us. We just wanted to send you a courtesy email to let you know why your phone hasn’t shipped yet. ...... We are normally pretty good at predicting our inventory but the demand for the MiFi 500 LTE by Novatel Wireless even surprised us. ^ Courtesy Email i just received from Wirefly...Wonder why they are surprised.. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alberto122509 Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 Mine got canceled as well, it said it was approved but they were out of stock at first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ericdabbs Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 Yeah I got the email from Wirefly saying that it is temporarily OOS. But it got approved. I wonder how long the delay will be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbsynergy Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 Is everyone that ordered one and got theirs shipped in a wimax coverage area? Maybe their cancelling orders for MiFi's that don't have any triband coverage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dkoellerwx Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 ^ Courtesy Email i just received from Wirefly...Wonder why they are surprised.. Got that email too. Says it's still going to ship when they get it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LuisOlachea Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 SD has WiMax that isn't a protection site? Since when? What he said.. They don't. They have LTE though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ericdabbs Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 Mine got canceled as well, it said it was approved but they were out of stock at first. So are you saying all your orders got cancelled or just your 2nd and 3rd orders did? Maybe they cancelled your orders due to multiple entries?

tmiw Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 They don't. They have LTE though. Yep. Near my work and house too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LuisOlachea Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 So are you saying all your orders got cancelled or just your 2nd and 3rd orders did? Maybe they cancelled your orders due to multiple entries? I made two orders and both seem to have been approved just waiting on stock to be replenished and then they will ship.

Maybe they cancelled your orders due to multiple entries? They all got canceled. I told my friend about it, and his got canceled about the same time as mine. I tried a different address and different credit card, but it got canceled again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alberto122509 Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 I made another order, using my girlfriends info, address and credit card, hopefully they will accept this one, I'm not placing multiple orders like I did before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tried a different address and different credit card, but it got canceled again I was thinking of making a 2nd order but after hearing your story, I might just stick to one. If I were to make a 2nd order and it got approved, I would have just used it to give to someone else here that wasn't able to get one.

Even sprint doesn't have them in stock right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaryTheLabelGuy Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 Mine shipped. Will be here on Friday. I ordered late last night. Sent from my Sprint iPhone 5, not the old one (using Tapatalk 2). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacPCS Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 Can we get a new thread for all this MiFi device offer chatter? It's rather distracting for thread followers who care not about the specific offer and about the frequency deployment in general.

dedub Posted July 25, 2013 Author Share Posted July 25, 2013 can one of the mods edit the original post to add something to the effect of; yes the device is free. You still have to activate it with a sprint plan to use it, either a month to month plan or contract. wirefly.com > phones & devices > hotspots > select mifi500 > select replacement device if you want to see what plans are available, select new account and 'change this plan' near the add to cart button. the only month to month plan listed is 3 gig. response has been mixed, several have reported being cancelled, while others have been notified of being shipped.
