Went to Verizon this afternoon and was all ready to switch to the S7E. They confirmed the transfer......then the associate said that I would be stuck with the S7E if the note 7 ended up not being released again. Then he said he thought Samsung would replace all the note 7s that needed to be released and would never end up putting it back on sale. So I stopped to process, went home and called Verizon. Note 5 reactivated and Big Red is sending me a shipping box to return the 7. Refunded my screen protector on the phone. I'm done with this crap. I chose note to update my 5 to the s7e months ago and did not want to get stuck with it. When I asked the sales rep in store if I was screwed, he smiled and apologized. Will keep my upgrade intact and will save my $800. There are certainly things I will miss on the 7, especially battery life. However, the 7 is going to bomb in resale. Just need to get away from it now and regroup. Also worth noting that I was on a flight this morning and they asked us to turn off our Samsung 7's because they have problems. What a cluster by Sammy and Verizon. Good luck to all who are waiting this out.
