    Stores with cashiers who refused to let you try Samsung Pay

    Horrible customer service to block the payment terminal without a reasonable suspicion of a problem. I've had issues like this a few times. I always contact corporate office of the store... Not in any attempt to get someone into trouble but to point out that they need better training. Posted...

    Samsung Pay is not working at Lowes

    When you use SPay, even if the physical card had a chip, it is not seen as a chip card. Just think of it as the virtual tokenized card does not have a chip. The reader bases it's decision to ask you to insert the chip based on the card information it reads. The magnetic stripe on chipped cards...

    Where Samsung Pay didn't work for you.

    Yes. I've attempted at two different stores now. The reader shows an error message and their system will not allow a second attempt from the customer side. Both times I had to give the card to the cashier. They were both friendly about it. The second store a manager mentioned that she thought...

    Capital One coming soon.

    CapOne is the only card I have that I can't add... I'll go bug them on social media about it. They probably keep up with how many times subjects come up. Posted via the Android Central App

    Samsung Pay getting declined at some places

    I had some issues with my BoA debit card at a few places. I will only use debit at some of the smaller businesses like family restaurants where I know it costs them less of a fee. Credit works every time and I don't have to worry about anyone seeing my PIN. Posted via the Android Central App

    Best/funniest experiences you've had using Samsung Pay?

    I've had store employees call management on me several times claiming it either didn't work or I was trying to trick them. A fast food manager told me she would file a police report after I wouldn't hand her my phone even though she was holding the receipt. She reached for it multiple times. I...

    S7 Edge in Silver: Otterbox Symmetry vs. UAG Ice

    Loved my UAG Ashe on my S6e. Was waiting for the UAG to show up on Amazon for my S7e... After a week of an Otterbox I ordered it directly from the UAG website. By the way I added the case to my cart on UAG's website and then didn't finish the purchase. In 24 hours they sent me a reminder with...

    Best Micro SD Card & Fastest for the Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge

    Just picked up the Samsung EVO 32GB microSD Class 10 at BestBuy for $12 to put in my S7e. Plenty of extra space for me. Posted via the Android Central App

    Does Samsung Pay & Wireless Charging Work Through an Otterbox Case?

    Both work fine with every case I've tried including Otterbox. I do have the 3 coil chargers from Amazon so they may increase the range. Did not try on a Samsung charger. Posted via the Android Central App

    Where Samsung Pay didn't work for you.

    Using a full UAG case and SPay and everything else works just fine. MST seems to have decent range. I've had successful reads with my phone several cm away. Posted via the Android Central App

    Where Samsung Pay didn't work for you.

    After months of working just fine at Walmart I'm now getting consistent read errors. Their equipment is the same as it has been. Makes me wonder if they purposefully pushed an update to stop SPay because it errors out on the first beep and won't take any more reads. Annoying because it's now...

    Samsung Pay $50 Best Buy Rebate?

    Re: Samsung Pay $50 Best Buy Rebate Never received anything from my activation in September. Sent email mid January and only got the automated response. Ugh Posted via the Android Central App

    Where Samsung Pay didn't work for you.

    I was originally amused when people said they didn't take Apple Pay etc but after some recent rude people like this I'm really getting annoyed. Manager at an Arby's where the card reader was on my side of the counter pulled the tray of food away and wanted to see the receipt and then decided to...
