Note 7 - Samsung Burning/Exploding Issue Discussion

[castone001]

Yeah I agree! they are trying to work with me. I will give them credit there. I don't want to leave Verizon. my fault really for NOT waiting a month once the Note 7 came out. Last time I buy the Newest toy when it releases

So, how much money is everyone going to be out over this case wise and screen protector wise? Mine totals about $100. Then having to pay for stuff for the new phone.

Unfortunately, this does not apply to me. Bought the phone from AT&T, the case from Spigen online and the front and back screen protector from the Zagg kiosk at the mall.

I have sent an email to Spigen pleading my case since it is past the 30 return period.

I think I'm out of luck on the screen protectors.

About $100 including a wireless charger but I might be able to use that with my next phone.

Same here. I'll be out about $60 from cases I bought online.

Luckily I just got my Note 7 and cases are still within the return date time frame. Will return my cases since I will have no need for it as I am switching back to my iphone 6s plus which I thankfully kept.

I have to use up my Samsung Rewards Visa Debit card though. Will probably use it to buy another iphone case.

So disappointed in Samsung.

Isn't it powering down that started all these issues? Like that plane when he was powering down and caught fire?

Actually the guy in Kentucky that got bronchitis from the smoke happened before the plane incident so your joke is foiled again.

Bronchitis. Ain't got no time for that.

This is lights out for the Note 7

Now, will the stores know what to do or we in for mess when we go in to return this week

I was just in a T-Mobile store and three people were exchanging/returning the Note 7, they took great care of those customers.

If they exchanged, do you know what they got?

 

[steveh552]

Only one I paid attention to, the guy got a Galaxy S7 Edge. I only paid attention since they were near me and I was irritated that it was taking so long to transfer his photos/contacts over from the Note to the new device. I mean, who does not back that stuff up in the cloud now days?

 

[MikeS1971]

Ok. So if I walk into a Verizon store and return my two Note 7s, do I have to purchase another phone there? I can get a S7 Edge at Best Buy for $120 cheaper ($240 savings for two phones) and a free 32" TV for each phone. I'd like to return my phones at Verizon, then drive down the street and buy the phones at best Buy and keep my numbers.

I live in the Northeast. It gets extremely cold here. I will keep my Note 7.

 

[audri5]

The Nicolasville guy had me right up until he wouldn't let Samsung have the phone to investigate. Mmm, why not? I am not saying it may not have happened, but that is a big red flag to me.

He wouldn't let them have it so he has proof when he takes them to court. His lawyer will want an independent agent or lab to check out the phone. Smart man!

It's now happened in Hawaii. I'm glad I returned my 2 N7's.

Just left AT&T. Returned my Note 7, but they let me keep all of the stuff in the box. Not the stylus though. Was going to get the 7 Edge, but they didn't have any. Took it as a sign from the powers that be that I'm not to have a new phone right now. Left the store with nothing but paperwork.

Thanks Samsung for giving me over two weeks and maybe possibly 4 weeks with my replacement note 7.. it has been my buddy and I still love it....but it's not leaving my hands until I have confirmation from T-Mobile that I have a preordered lg v20 or I have picked up a lg v20 in store....still enjoying the device.....too bad the new gear vr no longer works due to the oculus update that prevents all note 7s from being able to use it....
