Google is giving $25 refunds for delayed Nexus 6P shipments

Many of you will be eagerly waiting for your Nexus 6P to arrive, but it’s been reported that are some delays which Google is apologizing for in an email. That’s not particularly unheard of, but what is unheard of is Google refunding $25 to some people due to these delayed Nexus 6P shipments, deducted when the phone is shipped. It appears that apart from having ordered a Nexus 6P and have an affected order, you’ll also need to have a specific configuration of the device – presumably these are either the more popular or more expensive devices. Here’s the email that some people have been receiving:

Hello there —

Thank you for buying a Nexus 6P from the Google Store. We’re really excited about this phone and we hope you are too. But we have some not-so-great news: It’s going to take a little longer to get the 6P to you than we would have liked. We’re working hard to meet the strong demand we’re seeing for the color and memory size you ordered, and we promise it will be worth it! Rest assured that orders will still be shipped in the order that they were received.

As of now, we’re expecting to deliver your 6P order between 11/7/2015 and 11/14/2015, and we’ll send you a notification as soon as it goes out the door. As a courtesy, we’ll give you a $25 refund on your purchase, which we’ll process soon after your phone ships.

We know that waiting a bit longer can be inconvenient, though remember we won’t charge you until your order ships. We also want to make sure you’re aware that you can cancel your order. We’d hate to see you go, but if you need to, just follow the instructions here.

We apologize for this news, and thank you again for your order.

Sincerely,
The Google Store Team

It’s not exactly a huge delay – it looks like about just over a week extra – but it’s a nice gesture by Google nonetheless. Have you been affected by these delayed Nexus 6P shipments? Let us know your story in the comments below.
