Hello. I ordered 6th of june and i've yet to get a code to play nor has the product been shipped. According to this comment https://www.reddit.com/r/Stadia/comments/dvv3tv/hi_reddit_andrey_from_the_stadia_team_here_and_im/f7... You said that they get shipped in the order that they were purchased. Yet we've seen multiple post from discord and reddit that people who have bought in september have already received their items. Why ?

Hi Founders,
I can confirm that if you pre-ordered the Stadia Founder’s Edition, and your form of payment has been charged, your access code has been sent to you via email. Pre-orders for Premiere Edition will start shipping on Monday.
If you're a Founder, have received your shipment, but have not received your code, please reach out to the Stadia support team , and they'll be more than happy to work with you on your code delivery. Thanks!
- Grace
You’re serving your ass the first person you comes? How does this get back at google?!
Here is a Google Doc that some reddit users are trying to get a handle on the number of people who have and have not received codes. Enter info here.

Best guess : they're doing it in waves for reasons unknown ... Mine is due to arrive tomorrow and on the reddit subs some people got their codes right on time while others are left in vapor... They should of just included the code in the box to avoid a lot of this cause well we are getting to a point of people screaming "this is unfair" and logistically we don't have any idea what's going on behind the scenes cause well nobody officially has spoke up. Someone saying something would be very appreciated at this point.
Also, the big kicker is when you are using "have dibs on your username first" as a selling point you kinda have to deliver on that promise across the board.
I ordered on June 6th right after the announcement. No code, no shipment email, no charge to my card. Nothing.
It sucks seeing people who ordered way later than us already be online and playing with their first-pick usernames!

Paraphrasing .. "seeing reports about codes. eng is looking into it. hang tight"...
@Jeremy the hero we needed
I received the hardware today but no code... ordered way into August.
I also ordered immediately on June 6th, but not going to get my order until tomorrow. Still no code emailed. If my gamertag is taken, that's it. I will be returning my order and cancelling everything; I'll stick to PC/PS4.
This launch has been absolutely horrible, nothing but lies and broken promises. Lies about sending our codes in the order pre-orders occurred, sending out shipments in the order pre-orders occurred, all the cut features at launch, etc. Then there's the lies about playing in true 4k 60fps, when games like Destiny 2 is just an upscaled 1080p. None of the features demoed during the inital demonstration will be available, such as using the controller wirelessly and moving from device to device, etc. As a Google supporter, I've never been more disappointed with the launch of one of their products/services. I already see them quietly killing this within a year.
Google, you are disappoint.

The complete lack of transparency with the group of people who took a chance on this is mystifying.
I’m in the same position. No code, no hardware, June 6th.
At least my hardware shipped, and will be here later this week. The code, on the other hand, is just unforgivable.
If I could cancel my order at this point, I would, I’m not lacking in places to play Destiny 2.
I've only seen 3 people claim to have a code... are there others that are busy playing? but yes.. I saw one from 6/10, 6/11 and a 6/14th.. They seemed like legit accounts..
Maybe an initial unsorted burst went out -- they realized their mistake and then they stopped while they worked it out?

I ordered on the 6th in germany and still not shipping. Probably because I ordered a second controller?
Just wanna throw my hat in, I talked to stadia support, they said it can take up to 3-5 days to send out invites.. Here's my conversation .

I can't activate the package.

I can understand that you are eagerly waiting to get the Stadia code, even we are working on it to release the Codes over an email.
Kate

We are sorry for the delay.

Kinda disappointing from google though, said it launches on the 19th, and.. well.. it's going to be 3-5 days later.
##Name
2:32 PM
Anyway, there's nothing that can be done about the email?
Kate
2:33 PM
I wish, I could have more options here. Stadia codes are system generated email based upon on the order id, no one here is an authorized to issue a code manually. I would request you to please wait for an email.
Kate

We are trying our best to fix this issue.
Kate

Rest assured, you will get the codes within 3-5 business days.

Google said as part of the founders pack that we'll get first crack at playernames, but - that's, kinda not right either, is it? since there's problems with email?
Kate

Without the Stadia codes controllers is useless, due to some back-end issue codes aren't dispatch yet. We are waiting for an update, our engineers team are working into it to get this fix.

It appears that I'm in the same boat as the rest of the folks in the thread. No code so far.
Edit: Just recieved my code.
