I would also contact the support. My status never went back to pending.
It has also been only since 27th for me to move from step 2 to step 4, while you are still waiting for step 2.

Just did that yesterday, and today I received an answer...such a generic answer : Thank you for contacting EVGA Support.
we can see that; your Step-up request is under Queue and it may take longer than anticipated, Due to the shortage of those 3000 series Graphics cards in the current scenario.
Please find the Status of step-up under my products while logged into the EVGA Member profile.
Sorry for the inconvenience that may have been caused by the delay and request you to be patient.
I sent another question, maybe this time someone will answer MY question about MY situation but well...back to waiting I guess.

RTX 3070ti FTW3 ultra-> RTX 3080 FTW ultra step up
 
Step 1: 24/09/2021
Step 2: 27/05/22 so it's been like 9 months. 
Step 3: Payed for the difference and sent my gpu out today, waiting for my dream gpu :)
Step 4: Shipping from Estonia to Germany and then back... Let's see how long will it take

Hello guys, so we have some people from 2022 who are in Step 2? :D That is great news.
Just a little update, i restarted my Step Up process in the hope of get nice prices of a 3080 ti, but no luck... So my Step 1 date is 29/03/2022. That way you can update your list Wynter667.

We're almost done!

There've been delays with the last batch but I've marked PositronicBrain as ✅ serviced anyway.
That's all just a matter of time now.

ooops, too much copypasta, fixed it.

Yeah, I wouldn't say we're almost done. I haven't gotten Step 3, and my queue is back to pending in my status. I do think it was a mistake and I will get a second Step 2 somehwre in the future.
 
Question - has anybody who got one mail (not two) this week gotten into Step 3' I'm betting "no".

Hi.received STEP 2 of 4.. (27-05-2022)
One question, need to upload the INVOICE again, prior to STEP-UP, WHEN register the card the invoice was uploaded..
Thanks..

No, if you've previously uploaded your invoice it'll be in the system. No need to upload it again.

Looks like they pushed pretty much the rest of the queue to Step2 if even WINTERS_SP has gotten the email. O.o
 
Well it did seem great, but if they're now playing catch-up behind the scenes it's less so. Hope they get it sorted quickly.

But in my products: is still PENDING..?

Yep, same here. Honestly I don't expect to get to Step 3 any time soon.

In the german Hardwareluxx Forum the Evga support wrote: „ The delivery of the graphics cards from our warehouse in Taiwan is unfortunately still delayed, contrary to expectations.“
That could be the reason for why some of you are still in step2.
There is also a public holiday in Germany tomorrow, if anyone sent them an email and expecting an answer soon.

My 3080 FTW3 Ultra was sent out today. So my Step-Up is completed since EVGA did everything they had to do :) 

Very quiet here lately, any news?

I recieved my second step 2/4 message today. After waiting for 4 weeks (4 weeks ago i recieved another step 2/4 message but since then i heard nothing.)
But im not happy with my new message. read yourself...
 
Dear Mr..
thank you for your interest in our Step-Up program.
Unfortunately, the graphics card you requested via Step-Up "10G-P5-3897-KL - EVGA GeForce RTX 3080 FTW3 ULTRA GAMING (€ 809,99 Exc VAT) is still not available for an indefinite period of time.
For this reason, we would like to offer you the following alternative for your step-up:
12G-P5-3967-KR - EVGA GeForce RTX 3080 Ti FTW3 ULTRA GAMING (€ 1,199.99 Exc VAT).
The alternative model is associated with a corresponding surcharge, but it is directly available from stock and the step-up can be processed immediately.
Of course, you can still wait for the originally requested model, but unfortunately we cannot give an approximate waiting time.

I think step up to 3080ti should be around 600€ thats a lot for a small margin in fps gain compared to a normal 3080.

Damn, that sucks... Probably a lot of people will be receiving this offer also.
When did you start your process (Step 1/4)?
 

Couldn't find this, but if something is bought in the US and then shipped to EU, can I still use the setup up in EU?

So... you can't step-up to 3080 but you can just buy it? :D
