I put in my pre order for my note 7 today but getting a lot of run around from both rogers and samsung on how to redeem my free gear fit 2 watch. Samsung Canada promotion page does not have a section to put in for it.
Am I still able to purchase insurance through Costco even if I didn't get the phone through them? I'm not interested in dealing with Rogers refurb models either. I see that Costco advertises the extended phone warranty and all that on a separate page.
On top of Rogers I also pre ordered from Costco Lol since the dude had said they always have a better deal than Rogers sadly they don't so since I'm sticking with Rogers I think it may make more sense to go with them if I can get the trade in from them is not then Costco is best. Guy at Costco did say that they had the protection plan on sale from $129 down to I think $79 if that's the case that's a great deal.No, you have to buy the phone from Costco in order to purchase their Insurance Plan. I think Costco is still accepting preorders. I would call them and ask if you still can.
Yes, the Rogers refurbished phones are not only bad, but the deductible for the Note 7 is $200. The deductible from Costco is $50 and like I said, you get a brand new retail unit.
Let me know what happens.
87!?! Damn lolIt's very clear, with Roger's you get the 64Gb SD card, either Gear Fit 2 or Level pro speaker and can get $200 on a trade in. On the 19th Samsung will launch their promo website where you go and put in your info and choose which you want. They will likely ask you to enter the IMEI # and a bill of sale, hard to make a claim without having actually bought the phone yet, I think in the US ppl when pre-ordering can pay in advance at certain carriers but we can't with Roger's just the $40 refundable deposit.
This is how it's setup for the US as well unless ppl ordered from Best Buy. There's nothing fishy or abnormal I would just make sure to do the claim ASAP once you get your Note 7 in case they run out of the promos.
I was hoping Costco would have good pre order deal but they are only doing Gear Fit 2 or Level Pro that's it according to the dude at the Markham Costco so no SD card or trade in.
I'm 87 on the list for Onyx Black, I can't wait!

The Samsung warranty in Canada is merely for defects not accidents or theft.Samsung also offers a 2 year protection plan directly through them, I will be shopping around for my options as I'm not interested in beat up refurb units incase something does happen
Phone will be going straight into a uag case to begin with unless I find something better to show off the phones looks and protect it well

Only thing to look into is if I buy from Costco will I get wifi calling when it's available through Rogers or is that not considered buying from Rogers?

I have used the Rogers warranty a few times before and received new units, these were Blackberrys though but still were not refurbished however when spending $200 to get the new unit that's a lot. Though I did not get hassled at all I filled out an online form, they shipped replacement unit and I shipped defect back. I would expect/hope Costco to be as good if not better plus cheaper.
Most likely they didn't have any refurbished Blackberrys and they sent you a new one. The more higher selling brands like Samsung, they have tons of refurbs.
Yes, from my experience so far with Costco, much better service and it is cheaper. But like I said in my above post, Costco doesn't cover lost or stolen, whereas Rogers does. That's probably why it costs more because it's the type of package that Rogers chooses from the Insurance company.
Right, few different options. And I would have to make sure that the Note 7 from Costco is indeed a Rogers phone as it would be disappointing to miss out on wifi calling. I should just find a used Note 5 or S7E from Rogers lol
