I did get the notice from samsung that mine was approved. In that same email from Samsung they sent the Netflix code and the 6 free game sfor the VRI have already redeemed it. It says my VR ships today ( 4/1/16) when I check my Claim Status. Hope this clams your worries. I also have tmobile. FYI I did my claaim on 3/5/16 and got the approved notice on 3/23/16, so it took 18 days to get my approval email.
Samsung promotion status.

Somewhat funny, but mostly frustrating story for me. I bought 2 phones. One an S7 Edge, one an S7, on the same date/time and from the same retailer. Submitted 2 separate claims one right after the other using the same receipt, but it had 2 distinctive line items and was very obvious I bought 2 phones. Couple days later received confirmation that the 1st was approved. Next day I get a notification that the 2nd one was denied as it was purchased from a non-participating retailer (which is not true).
I responded to the denial asking how one was approved and the other not knowing they were bought at the same time and place. Received an email back saying it was again bought at a non-participating retailer. Asked the question again and received the same response as if they were not reading my email, no offer to help or explanation of what happened.
Last email I sent asked if they understood English. Haven't heard back since. lol Thought my question was valid and tried to be patient the first couple of exchanges. I'll be contacting Samsung directly instead of Prize Logic.

This sums up my email correspondence I had with them. Except in my follow up email I asked them to actually read my question and not give me a canned response.
They responded, but all they did was copy and paste the terms and conditions.

Samsung is now offering me a $100 coupon code instead of the Gear VR because they are so far behind on shipping. I think I'm going to take it. I've had this new Gear VR already and wasn't jazzed about the fixed IPD.
Doesn't sound very secure. All you need is an email address for someone waiting on a VR and change them to receive the $100 code.

Meanwhile, I bought an S7 and an S7 Edge, put them on the same claim but technically had two different receipts but for the same order (Verizon put one on each phone). I assumed when it said there would be the opportunity to load another receipt that there would actually be an opportunity to load another receipt so I just loaded one and submitted, only to find there WASN'T an opportunity to load another receipt. So, I tried just making another claim on the phone that the receipt didn't get loaded for and it wouldn't let me because there was already a claim. Checked the status a few days later and despite not having a receipt showing the second phone, both claims had been approved...
I completely understand.

That's what I ended up doing, but, I bought with my own money just in case I opted for the $100 gift card only to risk getting a fat "Thanks for your purchase, we're back-ordered" when I hit send. But no such issue; VR will be at my door mañana.
I figure I'll just resell the GVR when it comes in four months and get my $100 back.
I know a lot of you are S2 people, but I'm a Gear VR. I have estimated shipping 4-18. Why in the world would people that submitted after me (3-10) be getting theirs already or have a shipping estimate earlier than me. This whole process has been a pain.
This is my new status as of today 4-1-2016
Submission Approved. Preparing for Shipment.
Shipping Date Estimate: Pending
Delivery times for Gear VR are now extending into May and potentially Summer 2016. Click “Update Gift” if you would like to receive a $100 coupon code towards a purchase at Samsung.com* instead of the Gear VR. You must select your choice no later than Friday, April 8, 2016 at 11:59:59pm ET. If you select to receive the $100 coupon code, you will not receive the Gear VR.

My label is created and its still not showing anything here either. It started the 30th with supposed delivery today by 8pm. I guess I'll just have to wait til next week. Oh well I need to clean, pack and get **** done before I sit down and play with a new toy.
