Once you get the tracking number does that mean it’s at the post office as it saying pending for two days sorry just wondering how that works
means they have not even been collected from wherever they have sourced the item from yet. Means they have sent out a request to the company to ship it but it is yet to be shipped :( Mine has said pending for up to 3 weeks or so now with Aus post. Doubt it is even in stock wherever they are trying to source it from
Apparently it is in stock and they have dispatched it going by there message they sent me but tracking it it pending
I made my first payment yesterday when do I get the confirmation message for it so I get updated on what’s happening after that
Probably tomorrow Jamie, Mine took 2 days to get confirmation . And then within a few weeks you will get confirmation that your package is on the way . I got all my 3 things within a few weeks! I love snaffle!!!
Hey Jamie, Thank you for leaving us a review! If your first payment has successfully been requested, it can take up to 2 business days to be received on our end. Once this has cleared, you will receive a new SMS to advise, and your item/s will be ordered within our commercial supply chain for dispatch.

Thank you Tracy for the awesome comment, we greatly appreciate it!
Thank you I got the message the next day waiting for them to order it now hoping it soon
Jamie did you receive your order? I was about to order a phone for myself but it appears that most customers have been scammed and don't receive anything

Has anyone gotten to the end of their rental with snaffle, how much did you have to pay for buying the items at the end?
Hey there Bec, If you have a consumer lease contract with Snaffle, and it is due to expire we are more than happy to have a chat with you and advise you on your options. We are a pretty reasonable bunch here so feel free to reach out and our customer support team can support you with this enquiry. Thank you, The Snaffle Team
I understand this as it is written on your website, my contract is not due to be up for at least another year, I just want to know if it is a buyout like every other company that is a $1, or am I up for a couple hundred or am I going to be charged thousands of dollars to the value of the items as tge stand at the end of the contract?
Hey Bec, Please contact us on shop@snaffle.com.au or submit a form on our website and we can support you. We are confident you'll be very happy with our options for you! Have a great day!
Yes you only have to pay a $1 payout. Though if buying electronic goods make sure to submit the warranty incase item dies, as I found out that you can actually end up with a longer warranty time frame for submitting than if you don't
Are anyone aware of the mdm remote management profiles placed on snaffles devices??? Never in my life have I ever in the past went rent to owning a device had mdm remote management placed on a device I'm not an employee as I believe it was only for ither schools or the work place sharing my thoughts and questions for anyone else whom might have taken notice thanks
Hi there Essy397, This is a security feature, which is advised in the terms and conditions of our contracts. This secures your phone if it is lost or stolen, we can remotely lock the product for you to ensure no one else can use your device and access your personal content. Additionally, in the case that someone has stolen it and tries to sell it at a third party store - such as Cash Convertors, they easily identify that the phone is not owned by that person, and they contact us. We can then organise the return of the phone with you and the third party.
We have the management tool installed on the device whilst under contract, as soon as the contract is complete we can have the security tool removed right away for you. We can in no way view your usage, data, content or any personal information.
We apologise if this caught you by surprise, we have got it listed in our terms and conditions and are more than happy to explain the programme to you.
Hopefully that makes sense and clears up any concerns about the programme for you. Please contact us if you wish to discuss further.
Thank you, The Snaffle Team!
does this also mean everytime someone defaults a payment the phone is locked? This is enough to turn me away!
Hi Carly, No not at all.. We understand that circumstances change and sometimes you are going to have to balance out your income and may need to change your repayments. If there is continued missed payments and lack of communication we may lock the phone temporarily, but please rest assured we do not lock the phone every time a payment is missed. We are the home of flexible payments, and we are a pretty accommodating bunch. Thank you.
Carly they do sadly i needed a phone and couldn't afford one out right and tried this and missed one payment and they locked my phone and also then had to pay $150 just for them to press a bloody button to unlock it

Is it worth ordering a tv how long do they make you wait?
Look you'll get it, but expect it to take a long while. I still haven't received my airpods and my phone took two months
Ordered a tv and as palmerkyle has stated it takes ages I waited 2.5 months and supplier still hadn't got stock but snaffle organised contract as though it was ready to ship. They also changed contract as 1st supplier was having issues getting stock. My time period ran short so had to go another route but it will turn up but be prepared to wait and countless phonecalls to recieve any sort of update.
Has anyone actually received their item?
I received my lounge after waiting 9 weeks.
I am still waiting they say middle of November and still making payments really poor service never again that’s for sure
