I put in my order on Nov 20th for an S20, and the order hasn't shipped yet. The status is still pending, anyone else?

Yep, same here.

They haven't charged my CC yet, but I do see a pending charge.

I put my order in on the 19th (just before midnight) and still pending for me too. No preauth charge on my CC (it would have expired by now anyway)

Not sure if I will pull the trigger but much much better than Fido offering almost the same pricing while trying to lock customers for 2 years. This is quite tempting. Thank you OP!

Mine was pending. I called and they said it would come today. It did. Be warned they just leave it on The doorstep.

Ordered the s20+ on the 20th. Got mine today.
That being said, I also got the shipment notification on Monday

They rang the doorbell and hand delivered it to me (Fedex)

Maybe just try the boxing day. And also, the S21 is coming in January, there might be some promotion like the S20 did, so, there is hope.

If we were to look at Fido/VM:

Currently they are offering $0 down and $30/mo device payment plan if you go for a 2-year contract (I recommend $45/mo for 4GB all-inclusive plan).

So $30x24=$720
Then you get $300 Costco GC with activation at Costco. So essentially it's 720-300=420 for phone.

Hope this clears things up

You're also locked to Fido for 2 years and may have a better plan than 4gb for $45/month.

Hi, just curious about using XBox gift cards for payment at checkout? I only see a credit card or paypal option.

Just an update on this. the S20 in Sky Blue has been in stock a few times briefly this morning. I managed to snag one, so it might be worthwhile checking the page out now and then. The first time I had two in my basket but checkout failed. Got a single one to work a bit later in the day. Good Luck!

Redeem all GCs at redeem.microsoft.com before making the purchase (so it will all get loaded as MS Store Balance, ready for use when you checkout. It will show up when you go to checkout)

No limit for redemption. However, Costco limits how many you can buy per member (3 per 30 days per denomination), so you would need to purchase multiple denominations to cover a transaction like this one.
