Here is the response I was given, looks like Samsung is too busy to give a crap after the sale, they have my money for the device...
"Thank you for your correspondence. We understand your phone's memory card was not being recognized by your phone. We do apologize for the inconvenience that this might have caused you.
We understand that you tried removing the memory card and put it back in, you have formatted the card using your phone but still got the same issue. Our previous representative informed you check with the store where you have purchased the memory card to have it replaced.
We would like to inform you that if this memory card is not Samsung's, we cannot guarantee complete functionality and compatibility of our phones used in conjunction with third party devices such as this. For this reason, we refer you to the third party manufacturer for further assistance regarding compatibility with our Samsung products.
We are aware that there are official-looking websites online that have statements regarding this issue, but, these are not Samsung sites, and this information is not accurate.
Do you have more questions regarding your Samsung Mobile Phone? For 24 hour information and assistance, we offer our new FAQ/ARS (Automated Response System) at
Samsung.
We appreciate your understanding and patience."
Sincerely,
Ronn
