Probably because new Galaxy coming out soon. These screens probaly cost them pennies on the dollar. Wait did you ever get credited for trade in? Or you still waiting?

I literally just got my damned phone this past friday... I'm calling to see if they'll credit me the difference or if I'm going to have to return and reorder. I really hope they'll credit me as I've already spent $50 on a screen protector which is already on my phone

Their Trade-ins are a joke. I sent a Note 5 in perfect condition, with a factory reset.
They gave me a $25 credit instead of the $300. After calling, they initially said the camera was cracked, then said the screen was cracked, then finally said its because I hadn't done a factory reset. After providing images proving that none of the above were true, they said they would give me the $275 credit.. that was November 2017.. still waiting on the credit
Moral of the story, its easier getting the credit from phone provider than Samsung.

That's fine that you're happy, but you shouldn't be "bragging" or calling yourself "extremely lucky" when in effect you just spent $285 for a used N7 with no warranty, on eBay. There's a reason you were the only bidder.

i'm not happy the fact that i save money i'm happy the fact that i actually acquire one while everywhere else is sold out. if i pre-order from my local gamestop it wouldnt arrive till august 4th and god know when google will actually send my stuff, they promise this week than put it off for another week. so yea the point is i'm felt lucky to be one of the few that own one, not because i save any money.
Yep, was just talking to the Samsung dude at Bestbuy and he told me they will take any working tablet as a trade-in and give you $100 off a shiny new Tab S.
Not bad.
Would this be available at any best buy? Who do I talk to about this?

Looks like I have a errand tomorrow at BB.
Please remember that this was the Samsung dude at Bestbuy that told me this. Based upon my experience with them, they have little to no idea what is actually happening with their products. Case in point, whenever I go to my local Bestbuy, the Gear Watches are ALWAYS out of power and can't be tried. I asked the Samsung guy why the watch was out of power and he literally DID NOT KNOW how to charge it up.
Either these employees are the dumbest people alive or Bestbuy just hands them a "Samsung" shirt and zero training.
Regardless, I am hoping this $100 story is true, but consider the source. We'll see.

I called a BB store in Delaware and spoke to one of the Samsung rep. He stated that the $100 trade in offer is real but he thinks it's if you pre order the device at the store and not online. He also stated that the deal won't be there on launch day. He could be just trying to pull me in the store today but I'm going to try it and report back later.
Yes, it is true. But not everyone at best buy knew about it
Hmm ok well sounds kinda true but some question as to whether it applies only to preorders? My guess is it will apply also on launch day since there is no mention of this online when preordering. But then again he said that didn't he. Amazing even the Samsung rep didn't know the deal for sure. As I said, clueless.
Wonder if bestbuy will match Sears free case offer?

OK so I went to the store and what a cluster****.at first they had no idea of what I was talking about even though the Samsung rep told me about the offer. After several minutes of haggling they finally found a flyer confirming the offer...but of course they couldn't ring it through the system. They took my older samsung tablet and told me the manager will take care of me on the release date. Anyway... the offer is there but I suggest you wait until Friday as the rep was wrong and it's not just a pre-order offer but it does end on Saturday. Go on the release day with your old tablet and you will be good.
---------- Post added at 08:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:21 PM ----------
Oh yeah and the offer says at least 100 for any working tablet. I'm getting 100 for a galaxy tab 2 7.0 that's worth alot less.

I was also able to confirm the trade-in discount at a Best Buy near Atlanta. They don't, however, include the free case which I intend to buy anyway.
I originally pre-ordered the 8.4 from Samsung, which turns out to be the marginally better deal, considering the free case, no sales tax, the cost of a throwaway tablet, and cash back from fatwallet.
I had a lot of hands on time with both tablets today. I was initially set on buying the 8.4, but I'm waffling now between the two. The screens on both tablets are stunning. But it's even more striking on the 10.5 because of the size. It also felt so much lighter in hand than I expected-- so that's the dilemma I have; I would prefer a larger screen, but not at the consequence of comfort using it as an e-reader. I though that with the case, the 10.5 may be a little to heavy for my primary use cases but after feeling the device my opinion might be changing.
How much do you think I'll get for trading in a crappy Hi-Sense tablet?
Dang it, I just sold my Nook Color on eBay for $20.... Should have waited!
Is there an offical advertisment, I spoke to two Samsung Reps at two different Best Buys that is offering the test drive and they do not know anything about the offer. They both mention that I can go and trade-in my tablet and well give me a value. I'll be trading a HP Touchpad

I can't answer that.... I clicked the upgrade part so that's all I know.... Like I said I called Customer service before hand and it seems as though if you do it by phone you can say what gift you want but... they now implement a $20.00 "assistance fee" for doing it by phone....
I politely told the lady I don't want to pay the $20.00 and proceeded to do the transaction online... She was very helpful though and answered everything I asked so I do appreciate that...
You have to go to the Samsung promotions site when you have phone and receipt in hand to place your order.
SD card and Fit 2 will take up to 12 weeks for delivery.
Netflix is a digital code.
https://promos.samsungpromotions.com/galaxyoffer/
You need IMEI, MAC address and receipt from the device.
---------- Post added at 09:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:03 PM ----------
Oh yeah, and the promotion for the Fit 2 and SD card is limited to the first 250K then they substitute. . .
So when you get it, hop to it.

I also used JUMP via Web to place my preorder. There was no option for me to choose either, Hopefully there still Gear fit 2 available for me to redeem my gift.
I guess this must be the first time you guys have gotten any perks like this. ITs been this way for quite some time that you basically upload a copy of your invoice and use your IMEI number to process your order for samsung promotions. Also dont get too crazy thinking it may come right away generally it takes 4-6 weeks to receive promotional gifts
So far I have gotten netflix, wireless chargers, gift cards and gear vr. They will send it so dont get too nervous if you feel like you been waiting a while.
I just ordered the phone on jump on demand and the guy told me i wasnt gonna be eligible to receive the sd card or gear or netflix promotion with it. It was only available if i got it as a eip or bought full price. Sucks but still got it anyways.lol

With jump on demand you can only do it over the phone or in store upgrade. No online upgrade. For pre order just call tmobile and when it asks you to say what you are calling for just say representative. Tell them you want a jump on demand upgrade and to preorder a phone. And whenever you get the new phone just go to a tmobile store and return the old one. Really quick. Make sure you keeo the charger, they wont ask for it.
If the phone is already out then just go to any store and they will trade it for you. Also pretty fast. The cool thing is that you dont have to put any money down for any phone with jump on demand.
The only reason I didn't order it was because they had a 70 down plus tax on jump on demand. I kept asking if that was right because it didn't sound right. Guess they did have a money down thing for jod on the note 7 but got rid of it because people were complaining. Sucks because I would've ordered it last week. But it's cool I guess. I'll just order it today

I went ahead and paid the $70, then got a text two days later from T-Mobile stating that I could do it for no money down, all I had to do was call back in and they would change it for me and my monthly amount would go from $33.50 to $37.50. I went ahead and just left it alone as I didn't want to risk losing my place in the shipping line.

The only reason I didn't order it was because they had a 70 down plus tax on jump on demand. I kept asking if that was right because it didn't sound right. Guess they did have a money down thing for jod on the note 7 but got rid of it because people were complaining. Sucks because I would've ordered it last week. But it's cool I guess. I'll just order it today

I ordered mine last night for no money down at $37.50 per month. They checked my account and told me I didn't need any cash.
Did anyone else get this? I was financing my Note 7 through Tmobile and I got my phone bill with the full charge of my phone.
I understand why they are doing it. Just sucks. I can't afford to pay off all $900 at once. I guess they are finally forcing me to return it.
It's a recalled device. Tmobile still owns it until it's paid off. They can't own this anymore.
The phone is dead. No support. No insurance.

No I didn't, when did you get it and how did they send it to you?

Yeah I guess they tried that with me but I show a credit of the phone on my account page. Maybe cause I called last week to get details and they said they were going too follow up next week

I'm under my sister's account who works for tmobile. So our regular phone bill was +$900(the cost of the phone). When she looked into to it, she was told that i need to pay off the phone.

More than likely it is because she is an employee, as an employee she is held to a different standard when it comes to protecting the brand. Turn the device in so your sister doesn't get in trouble for not following proper procedures.

It is likely they force people to pay off phones so ownership of phone would be transfered from Tmobile to customer and Tmobile wouldn't be responsible for any future lawsuits.

That's true... It's possible. Yes i will be doing that this week sadly.
Is it that the credit for the first N7 you turned in hasn't applied yet to your account? I had an $871 bill on tmobile till yesterday because the credit for the first N7 I turned in didn't apply. I went to the store, they made a phone call and my bill is down to $90. All I have on my account now is the EIP balance for the second N7 that I haven't surrendered yet. Try calling them and ask what is going on.
My bill somehow turned to negative $650 when I turned mine in

Actually the way I see it, if OP paid the bill in full, then T-mo would be selling at that point recalled device that shouldn't be sold at all and me think that would be illegal regardless of any possible future lawsuits, but I'm not a lawyer, also the fact it is under T-mo employee account makes it even more tricky. Either way they will probably put some deadlines in place soon, so free ride may end soon for everybody.

how did that happen. so your current phone N7 shows no more payments needed?
I have a similar issue. They had to escalate it to see where it went wrong. They removed the EIP, they have the phone, they credited only 425 of the eip. Waiting to hear back. The lady did state I was NOT the first to call in with issues relating to the 2nd recall.

I had similar situation as you. Yesterday I have received an SMS from T-mobile with my next bill due November 12th. Amount $519. $380 is an amount for galaxy note 4 that was waived the moment I upgraded to Note 7, plus I could keep the Note 4.
Just 2 days earlier I saw $90 as my next bill on tmo website.
So I went to T-mobile store. Explained all to the manager and he called T-mobile billing department and they rectified the my bill back to what it suppose to be. Today on T-mobile website I still see EIP outstanding balance of $780 for the note 7 as I write this.
I think that the carrier(s) are trying different tricks to let us part with our Note 7. Harassment so to speak.
The most ironic thing is that the manager in the store was on my side. Pulling out of his pocket Note 7 and saying until the recall is mandatory he will keep it too. With the smile on his face. This is no joke. I felt like I found an ally.
Also they had v20. (not on display but in the back of the store) So I could have it in my hands.
I was toying with the idea of jumping the ship before but after playing with v20 for few minutes, there is no way that I go for this device.
Has not happen to me but if it does im going to be piss and will probably leave samsung and tmobile altogether.
I try to play nice and was going to return the phone, even know i dont want to.
But every tmobile store i call tells me there out of stock of s7 edge and to just keep calling.
Went online ans there out of stock until Nov or Dev.
Not the kicker here they dont even carry the black s7 edge any more. Which i traded mines in for the note 7 at launch. And now gotta start all over with payments and now they dont even have them on in there systems any more.
And to top all that.
Samsung website is out of stock also. Without a date.
And there are reports that the s7 edge are catching fire also.
So all this is turning into crap.
But yes i can see tmobile doing this.
Getting the end user to pay it off and deal with samsung direct for the exchanges and problems with the phone.
And thats how they get you to return it. You dont wanna pay it all off so they , tell you, you can exchange it for another device and they will credit you whatever you already paid.
I guess we shall see what happens.
Samsung is releasing a UK update to kill charging to 60%.
This will got ota on the 30 or 31
I had the same thing happen see my attached upcoming bill but I'm gonna argue it because they ****ed up and are charging me for my previous Note 7 the one I returned.....idiots

Call them. They know of the screwup and are fixing it. They fixed mine already.

Yes lol
Just an FYI. My wife and I both attempted to order the note 9 from Samsung directly, she put in her order a day after mine and her order got put on hold for the following reason attached. Don't understand it as TD Bank card is the method of financing thus even if they don't receive her trade in they can charge her the full amount anyways.

I need to go have a look to see what deal Samsung is offering. I don't trust T-Mobile's.

Just take screenshots of your transaction & all promotional web pages & you should be covered, regardless of who you buy from.
Definitely take pix of any devices that you send in for trade/discount/credit....

Yep, had the exact same thing. They told me this is a new procedure they started with the Note 9. Yippee. What is worse is they told me that the other one couldn’t ship till the trade-in phone for the first order is received and processed. I was like, “how long is that liable to take.” They couldn’t give me any specific time frame. I cancelled the second order. Tough on them.

I just don't get it. Her credit line is enough to buy 2 more note 9 with out trade in, so even if she doesn't send it in, they can charge her TD account.

How is that possible I wonder? I have two orders both with trade in's from Samsung.com.

Was wondering if you got any updates on your first trade in? Apparently there is no timeline. Lol
They received mine on Monday but still wife's note 9 order is in ordered status only. Cheers.

Nope, no updates yet. They got my trade on Tuesday. I will probably reach out to Samsung support this next week to see what is up.

The first thing they will say is , did your wife or husband get an email approving their respective trade in . When I traded in an s7 for the note 8 last year, I never got any emails approving my trade. Just a heads up.
Sent from my SM-N960U1 using Tapatalk
So I actually just got an email this AM at like 2 something saying the phone was accepted and the trade was approved for the first order. Samsung support told me that it will take 24 hours and then the other order will be processed. But if not, to contact them back.

They can't see that though. That's why there is a hold because somone has probably abused to system of doing multiple trades and not having the funds.

No, that was a different order. Although depending on how long this one is going to end up taking, I may just cancel this one too.
