Anyone else's Samsung Pay Not Working Recently?

[djlee0314]

Curious if anyone else has had issues with Samsung Pay not working recently. I have been able to use Samsung Pay flawlessly since receiving my Note 7 (launch day) but since about the 19th of this month it hasn't worked at all the same stores it's worked before. Sprint N7 variant (recalled device....still waiting on my replacement to ship)

I am having the same issues with my launch day N7 (T-Mobile).

Used mine today at Costco and it worked fine. Even got the $10 first time bonus they're doing even though I got the $20 bonus on the first N7 last month!

My replacement N7 worked yesterday at the vape shop..
Verizon

So the two of you that haven't had a problem seem to have replaced devices while me & @adam13141 still have recalled devices...wonder if that's the issue...hmmm

It's working for me when I use regular debit or credit cards. Can't seem to get the Samsung Rewards Card to work at all. Always getting an error whenever I use it.

I think that has to be it. I use Samsung Pay every day for a month and it has worked great. Now it won't work at all and I have tried multiple vendors. This has just started within the last week or so.

I tried my debit card twice and no go. That was Wed. I'll try a different one later. My original Note worked the first time.

One of my membership cards that transferred over did not work so I am going to delete them and add them back in again. Also, like some who got the$10 promotion in top of the already $20 promotion, I did not get it today when I used Samsung Pay.

I had problems with trying to get the Samsung Pay Rewards. Was suppose to get the $20.00 last month and a error kept coming up saying the card couldn't be loaded. Then when I got the new replacement the same thing happened again. I got the notice on the third time of paying for something that I qualified for the $10.00 card. When tried loading it another error came up saying that I had invalid characters in my name. I went into the settings and took out the middle initial of my name. And I also went on Samsung.com and saw that in my account my name was in all caps. So I changed that. Then the card finally loaded up when I tried clicking on the promotion again. Other then that I haven't had any problems with paying for stuff. By rights I should of gotten $30.00...

Used SP on my replacement N7 several times over the last 2 days with nearly flawless results. I did have to retry one transaction at my local Subway, but that seemed to be a random glitch and/or a phone placement problem on my part as opposed to some issue with the phone or SP itself.

Oddly enough, I even got a second Dunkin' Donuts gift card and a second $10 VISA gift card from Samsung Pay. Not gonna complain about that!

FWIW, I used SP on my original N7 with no issues right up until I swapped it out last Monday.

I've been having the same problem with my Note7 for the last few weeks. I thought I was going crazy...especially when it wouldn't work at McDonald's. I just swapped my Note7 today. One of the first things I plan on doing this weekend is trying Samsung Pay again and see if it works better on the new phone. I miss the functionality...and, I wanna use the remainder of my rewards credit.

My Samsung pay works so well I actually prefer to use it over my actual debit card.....The chip process takes so long, Samsung pay is much faster

Totally agree. Samsung Pay hasn't had any issues at all and is much faster than using the physical card with a chip.

I've had a little trouble with Samsung Pay at Walmart, but otherwise it has worked well.

The first time I used it on my new N7, I didn't get the extra $10. I got it the second time, though.

Only had one time it dident work I think because I did 3 Trans in 10min, have even used on terminals were I was told we don't do that here

Working fine here in Tucson. Used it several times yesterday and again this morning.

I had that problem on my OG Note 7 but much to my surprise my new one not only loaded the Samsung Rewards Card automatically when I set up Samsung Pay but the card finally worked. Make sure you have the most current version of Samsung Pay.

Nice ... I will be using it again tomorrow morning. I was hoping someone would tell me it didn't work for them the first time. Thank you!
