[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] Eddie Hicks:
I submitted my information on March 11th. The same day I received my S7E. I called the outfit handling the promotion about a week ago to see what was going on with my submission. They told me mine was processed on March 29th and it would be 6 to 8 weeks from that point. So I was surprised that it came today. I was expecting at least a couple more weeks. The day I submitted my information I also received an email from Samsung for a free 32gb SD card. I applied for the SD card but have not heard anything about it since.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] arsmithsr:
-Got mine Yesterday and as others have stated it is the 3 G version in grey. The Wife got that one I bought the Classic 3G. Still not sure if we will activate it or not.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] gqser:
mine went from shipping on 4/1/16 to now "Submission Approved. Preparing for Shipment.

Shipping Date Estimate: Pending"

i submitted my promo on 3/9/16.....my wife submitted hers on 3/10/16 and got her watch already.....i'm cursed.

what number are you guys getting through to prize logic on?.....every # i try just gives me automation to check my status on the website then hangs up on me.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] raidflex:
Mine also changed to pending and I submitted on the 3/10/16.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] gqser:
i just finally got through to prize logic to verify i'm getting the watch because the email chain has been a rollercoaster if i'm approved or not. when asked why i got pushed to the back of the bus, she basically said shipping was handled badly and got to be a cluster****

i guess it'll come sometime in may/june. who knows....maybe they'll get santa to deliver it this winter.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] snake2332:
Happy to find out it's the 3G version. Got mine today.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] raidflex:
I just do not understand these companies with such terrible customer service. If they had problems, why not let the recipients know there are issues and assure us that they are working through the orders as fast as they can. Instead you get a canned response that is different every time you call.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] A_N_D_R_E:
New status on the SamsungPromotions site:

"Congratulations! Your submission has been approved and your gift has been processed and is currently in route."​

Not sure what's more frustrating, the lack of any specific information or the use of "in route".
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] tysen:
My shipping date estimate changed from "April 1, 2016" to "pending". I hope there's a survey or something once this is all over, Prizelogic is ridiculous.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] mwshows:
I have this same thing on my wife's gear vr and mine. They just changed from pending ship date of the middle of the month to this yesterday. Called customer service. Lady told me this message means nothing basically lol. I don't think any of them really know any more than we do.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] arsmithsr:
-I never got an estimate it just showed up Yesterday. I got the Email and tracking number after the Watch was there on the doorstep. A cluster F is the proper term for this.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] A_N_D_R_E:
Sounds like the only thing to keep an eye on as far as anticipating when these may arrive is the doorstep/mailbox!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] tysen:
You can sign up for a Fedex Delivery Manager account (free) and it will text you when there's a package en route to your address.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] A_N_D_R_E:
Thanks, signed up.

Looks like a shipping label was generated on the 12th, no info though.

FYI, I submitted my S2 request on 03/11.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] danlnyc:
Congratulations! Your submission has been approved; however because the

purchase receipt you uploaded denotes an in-store and/or online business

purchase, you are only eligible to receive the Samsung Gear VR with 6-game

bundle. We will ship your Samsung Gear VR to the mailing address you

provided when registering for this Offer. Your estimated shipping date is

April 18, 2016.

Once shipped, we will send you an email with your tracking number.

After you receive your free Gear VR gift with purchase in the mail, don't forget

to immediately set up an Oculus account to access your 6-game bundle.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I received this e-mail so I called in to Prizelogic.....put me on hold for a hour.

When I finally reached a representative the lady was able to confirm that I was receiving a S2 watch and not the Gear VR.

My estimated ship date is the 18th. Waiting for a tracking # to arrive.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] gqser:
status keeps changing with different ways to say i'm approved.....now it says they are processing with estimated date staying 4/1/16........don't think the concept of time is present here.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] Fourty8:
Still don't have mine either, placed submission on 3/9/16. My shipment estimate date is still pending! WTF!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] h3ck:
For those still interested or asking, the watch is the Gear S2 3G version. I ended up getting mine about a week or so ago. I originally planned on selling it and acquiring another watch. I've bene pleasantly surprised and now I'm using it full on. It's a great watch and super awesome that we got the 3G version because it has a speaker phone and allows us to answer calls on it from phone. That's super useful when driving or while doing something like grilling or at home depot or whatever.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] fat daddy78:
If you don't mind me asking, what was the estimated date you requested it? Just wondering how long it takes... I submitted mine on the 14th. Still waiting... Pretty awesome it's the 3g version! I was only expecting the WiFi.

---------- Post added at 05:18 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:12 PM ----------

I keep eagerly checking the status of mine on the site also. It too keeps fluctuating between processing, and approved and it's even said in transit a week ago, now is back to preparing for shipment again! Very frustrating! Mine has never given me a ship date though. I feel your pain![emoji37]

Don't even bother calling Prizelogic... what a waste of an hour!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] tysen:
I submitted mine on March 8th, my status keeps changing around too. Now it's back to estimated ship date of 1 April 2016...

Buddy of mine with AT&T got his watch a week after he got his phone.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] h3ck:
So I put in my request on March 9th, and got last Tuesday on April 12th. And i wasn't expecting 3g one either. But cool usse case example,I was just washing dishes, phone/watch is ringing, answer on watch, it was the pest guy, I have a conversation, I end the call, and all while washing dishes. Pretty epic since watch it is IP68 rated and I don't have to worry about water. Definitely super useful.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] _Dennis_:
Didn't know AT&T had a promo through Samsung/prizelogic. I'm fairly certain if he got a watch from AT&T it was via a transaction in which he paid money to obtain the watch.

Do you have a FedEx account? You can set it up so they email/text you when there is a package on the way. I did this and found out they created s shipping label but it's not shipped yet, hopefully it ships Monday.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] tysen:
Didn't know they did either, he told me when I was *****ing about prizelogic. He didn't pay for anything but the data plan on it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] fat daddy78:
I do! But they (PL) couldn't even tell me how it would ship. Thanks! Good to know it's FedEx.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] _Dennis_:
Odd because I was originally going worth AT&T but didn't like their DIRECTV notification ads and when I saw the free Gear S2 on Verizon it settled it and I changed my preorder.

In January apparently they had a free S2 with 2 year agreement when purchasing any phone on installment. Not add nice as the Verizon one with no agreement required.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] _Dennis_:
My Gear S2 is sitting at brightpoint, the label was created April 22, still hasn't shipped. I submitted my request 14 March.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] tysen:
Mine also has a shipping label, no text yet via the delivery manager but I see it if I log in. Scheduled for delivery tomorrow. I submitted on 8 March.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] _Dennis_:
Mine is scheduled for 28 Mar, but with it not yet shipping I doubt I'll get it then :(
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] danlnyc:
3/13 Submitted for Gear S2

3/23 Received email stating that it was an in-store or online business purchase so they'll be sending me a Gear VR instead (even though it was purchased online)

3/23 Same day - called PL and they confirmed multiple times that they had no idea what I was talking about. Their systems showed that I was receiving a Gear S2. Estimated shipping date 4/18.

In between 3/23 - 4/18 I called in to PL at least 1-2x a week, often putting me on hold for 1 hour+ JUST to confirm. That hour flies by when you're at work. Every single time, they confirmed that I would be getting the S2. I've told them every time I already have a VR so I don't need another one.

4/18 Called PL again notifying them that I did not receive my tracking #. Rep confirmed that my item did not ship out yet. AGAIN, they confirmed that I would be receiving the S2 watch.

4/26 Today, called in asking why I still didn't receive my tracking # and the rep states that all of the sudden, my entire account shows nothing but Gear VR submissions. WTF??? She's saying that they've run of stock and that there is nothing she can do for me. I literally complained and *****ed for an hour straight, obviously upset. I explained to her that every single I called in, the rep would confirm I would be receiving the S2. In the end, there was nothing that she could do for me and that they were getting ready to ship out another VR. I told them to keep it, even thought she did explain that they couldn't lol.

So I called Verizon to complain about their crappy promotion and the rep at Verizon is saying that I was still eligible for the S2 but they were currently out of stock. When they would receive more stock from Samsung, they would ship it out to me from Verizon DIRECTLY.

So far, this has been an incredibly stressful and frustrating experience. I'm looking at 3 different sources and they all saying different things.

Forums are a mess, people are receiving them most people are not.

PL is saying that I'm getting the VR

Verizon is saying that I'm getting the S2.

WHICH IS IT?!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] tysen:
That worries me...Can anyone who received their watch already verify the weight on the package?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] _Dennis_:
I've not received mine but, I've ordered a gear VR through Samsung before, weight was 2lbs/.91kgs. My gear S2 finally shows shipped and it says weight is .9lbs/.41kgs.

You're story is sadly similar to a lot of people's (minus the calling and verizon). I hope it works out. Get a FedEx delivery manager account, and watch for shipments. Who knows you may get 2 gear S2s one from prize logic and one from Verizon lol.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] tysen:
Ok...so just got off the phone with Prizelogic. This **** it ridiculous. The item being shipped to me is a Gear VR, not the watch. He stated that when I receive it to not open it, and to call them back and they'll walk me through the next step to get the watch instead. Why he couldn't tell me the steps I need to take is beyond me.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] tysen:
Tried the Verizon route that danlnyc talked about but wasn't able to get them to ship me a watch. They did give me $100 credit (said I could sell the headset and use the credit to buy a watch) and 2 GB of data for life added on to my plan.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] _Dennis_:
Sucks man, the gear VR is cool, but I'm sure you'd rather the gear S2. What's the weight on your shipment?

I'm torn, is nice they gave you 2GB of days, but selling the VR is a bit of work. Maybe keep it, the 2GBs, and pay $150 plus the $100 credit to get the S2. That's what I'd do, but I've bought the VR and it's quite fun for a calls casualb gamer like me.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] tysen:
weight on the shipment is 1.4 lbs.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] danlnyc:
I'm going to call back and double confirm that I'm getting the S2. If they can't, I want the $100 credit and the 2GB of data, even though I have unlimited.

The folks over at androidcentral are stating that some of these guys are calling Prizelogic and they're offering a $200 eGiftcard or certificate towards Samsung for the bait and switch.

You might be able to get $300 total back if it works. Get a VR and a $300? That would make me happy.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] tysen:
My VR arrives today. I was told to call back after receipt to discuss an exchange. I'll let you all know what happens.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] Goatshaver:
I received my Gear S2 yesterday. It is the 3G version. Haven't decided if I like it yet or not. I haven't worn a watch in several years so I'm still getting used to having something on my wrist. I will say one thing right away is that I wish I could get a more comfortable band with a different clasp.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] _Dennis_:
Amazon has bands, and hopefully soon samsung will come out with the band adapter in the US and wet can use that.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] tysen:
$200 e-gift certificate from Prizelogic for compensation. Just got off the phone with them. guess with that and the $100 I'm saving on my phone bill I can order a watch. Although now I'm not sure I want a constant reminder of this bull**** on my arm, lol.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] ccrdr:
Prizelogic just told me on the phone mine will be shipped late May, maybe into June. They said I was approved on April 7 (I registered weeks before though of course) and it was just in process of shipping. FWIW.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] JLintheTL619:
Mine came in today and it was the gear vr. No email from the idiots at Prizelogic. Luckily Fedex notified me and I can confirm that the 1.4lbs is the gear VR. I called Verizon and they told me to call Samsung to complain. I called Prizelogic and I'm number 45 in line so I hung up
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] _Dennis_:
Stay on with prizelogic, and give samsung a call to complain. Then call verizon again. I'd keep at it until either you got at least the $100 difference or a gear S2.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] gqser:
status has been at this for over a month now.

Congratulations! Your submission has been approved and we are currently processing your gift for delivery.

Shipping Date Estimate: 4/1/2016"

has anyone gotten theirs lately? what's the over/under on even getting it anymore? registered for it on march 9th at like 8am.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] tysen:
If youre still expecting a Gear S2, it is highly unlikely that you're going to get it. I ended up with a Gear VR, but when I complained to Verizon and Prizelogic I ended up with $100 credit and 2 GB of free data for life from Verizon, and a $200 gift certificate from Samsung. I just went ahead and ordered the Gear S2 classic, since you cant get the 3G model through the Samsung store and the certificate is only usable there.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] _Dennis_:
I got mine last Saturday. Their website showed it shipped the Tuesday after I got it, so they aren't very good at keeping things up to date.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] megamanfre:
Got mine last Thursday. Just got an email last night saying it was just shipped. Well, at least I got a shipped email.lol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] _Dennis_:
Lol. It's amazing to me how terrible the communications have been, I'm glad I got my watch, but they're not very good at keeping people informed about what is happening.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] xmind2006:
I got my watch over a week ago....and to my surprise, they shipped the 3G model! I thought for sure the Samsung promotion was strictly the bluetooth version, but apparently not. So far the watch has been good, though still going to play around a bit to see if it is worth the $20 activation and $5/month thereafter to use...the speaker phone is quite nice wish I had in my LG Urbane for work.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] SEVENEDGE:
I got an emailed today saying it was shipped and will arrive the 13th. Its 0.9 lbs, so I'm wondering if they did in fact send me the S2 watch, which they approved me for.

VZ S7 EDGE ONYX
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] sooTi01:
Mine is on it's way. The email I got states it's the S2 3g.

Shipping says it's .9lbs, so I'm guessing they haven't pulled the old switch-a-roo on me. Should be here Friday.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] gqser:
wow.. finally got something....but it was the headset...on to complain more. how are you guys getting the $200 credit again?

---------- Post added at 09:06 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:43 AM ----------

how did you get the $200 certificate from samsung. i called samsung and just got routed back to prizelogic.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] tysen:
You have to call Prizelogic, and tell them you received the headset when you registered for the S2. The guy you talk to will tell you that he'll have a supervisor call you within 5 business days (took 2 for me). Once he calls he'll offer the $200 e-certificate for the Samsung store. Mine was only good until May 31st, and it's a one-time use certificate. Meaning if you buy something from the Samsung store for $75 and use the certificate, you forfeit the remaining $125.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] gqser:
thanks for the info.

---------- Post added at 09:31 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:17 AM ----------

did they ever give you a line of how your location code was invalid? they are claiming they will do absolutely nothing for me because of this.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] berfles:
Same thing today. Opened it up and it was the stupid VR. I called PrizeLogic and the lady told me that my location code wasn't even filled out, so she took my address and info and said she'd forward to Samsung and they'd email me their findings. What a cluster this is, the damn status checker still saying it's preparing shipment and I have an email from PrizeLogic confirming I should've been expecting the S2.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] VTG4LIFE:
I finnaly had a label created yesterday for mine after months of pending shipping. Still says shipping pending but Fed ex manager has the label created. And the package is .9lbs thank God. Took long enough. Now just have to wait for it to ship. I'm just happy the label was created and that the watch is packed up (. 9lbs). If I saw 2lbs I would have lost my ****. I must have emailed them 7 times. Gets you nowhere but I figured I'd keep pushing them at least.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] VTG4LIFE:
Mine shipped. Coming Saturday! It's in transit. Was supposed to be here today but sat there till today and then finnaly shipped. Thank God.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] SEVENEDGE:
Got mine today, and it can be activated also instead of bluetooth.

VZ S7 EDGE ONYX
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] JasonJoel:
Got my gear S2 today too.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] SEVENEDGE:
Didn't activate it, though. I think you have to pay extra.

VZ S7 EDGE ONYX
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] _Dennis_:
$20 activation (1 time fee) and $5 a month.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] SEVENEDGE:
Will it change your current plan? I have unlimited data, so if it'll change my plan, I'll just use the bluetooth

Yeah no way I'm activating mine. Not losing my unlimited. I wanted it because of the speaker. It's great for my work. Bluetooth it and not have to take out my S7 silver edge as much and possibly get scratches. Sand kills phones no matter how careful you are. Metal, glass, plastic. Fronts and backs. One or two grains you're done. Never used screen protectors but the dbrand is a lifesaver with the glass back. This one is still mint. Silver dbrand brushed metal skin on back this time in a clear case. Looks gorgeous and I keep it in a neoprene pouch in my pocket at work. They finnaly made a tight stretchy pouch that shuts completely at the top and is tight fitting. So happy. It's keeping it in such great condition. And because of it I can use a thin clear case. Funny I have all these cases, spigen slim armor, neo hybrid, silver oblique slim metal, and the thin moxy German Bayer clear one is the one I use the most because it fits so tight, keeps dirt from getting in sides, and fits in the neoprene pouch and will slide out easy enough. Great quality and feel too for a simple case if anyone is looking for a clear case. Sleeper. Hard back soft edges and just looks great. And I've tried them all. Phone turns heads. I alternate between that and the slim armor if I'm holding phone alot at home. Slim armor comfortable. Don't even use the expensive ones. Go figure. This watch is gonna help me even more. Will be here tommorow. Anyway sorry for my rant. Just happy as hell. Took forever but worth wait. Got a tempered glass protector for the watch screen coming tommorow too. I'll be wearing that all day at work so might as well keep it protected.

---------- Post added at 04:25 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:25 AM ----------

Yes. Read my post I just wrote. Which is why I'm using it Bluetooth. You'll lose unlimited.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] SEVENEDGE:
Thanks, dude. Yeah, I placed an offer on ebay for a Tempered glass for my watch...also curious, are you running your Edge naked in the front?

VZ S7 EDGE ONYX
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] VTG4LIFE:
Yes I am,naked on the front. Only use that neoprene pouch at work in my pocket. At home or outside not working goes right in my pocket in this clear case or spigen slim armor. Btw I got the watch and this thing is effing amazing. I couldn't be happier. Well worth the wait. Changing watch faces. Making calls, great speaker btw, reading notifications and listening to music and just got it. Thing is sick. Love the bezel.

I messed with lg volt 2 build prop file and not it won't boot and I want to know how I can use one of my friends lg volt 2 to get its stock rom and fix mine. Maybe any knowledge to how to port cyanogen mod to the phone or create a rom for it to fix it would also help and I do have the stock build prop file..
