When you look at it this way (excluding tax), it's still hard to believe that I got two S7 edges for $420.View attachment 3733523

What day was yours received
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] mngdew:
I bought my phone on the last day of the promotion, but got mine rejected because fxxking VZW took a day to release my number to T-Mo. Long story short, the nice T-Mo rep helped me out and forced the system to approve my BOGO deal.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] Binary100100:
Just got my VR today. No e-mails, no tracking, no change in status. Just... arrived without warning... to my neighbors apartment below me. Still addressed to me. Neighbor told my roommate that he came home from work and found it on his porch and gave it to my roommate. Roommate gave it to me. You'd figure that whoever was delivering this thing would take better care? Be on the lookout!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] vipercoyote:
They will not even leave packages where is stay in apartments. Mines was sent to a few days ago and arrived but they didnt leave it on my door they left it with the apartment complex and made them sign for it

Did your status change online right away or by now? They will say they are forcing the system to approve but actually they CAN NOT force it to approve your rebate. What they do is redo the rebate as brand new so it will take up to another 8 weeks basically you started over on the rebate

I received the approval email but the Netflix code is not there. I ask Samsung and TMo both said the code should be there. Any suggestions?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] gaww:
I would contact the processor of the program(forgot their name) for Samsung and have them explain. If the say you were past their allocation of codes - it probably will stay that way. If they just screwed up - you might still have a shot.

Received my two Gear VR headsets today...no shipping notice was given, they just arrived together in the same box by FedEx from Plainfield, Indiana. (Originally submitted 3/15.)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] Cubed Guru:
Well, that gives me some hope. Was losing it too.

I think I had done mine on the 16th. Were you able to see them in Fedex Delivery Manager?

Mine still shows pending under Samsung Promo Status and nothing in FDM.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] VegasRooted:
Yes, I regularly receive FedEx text message alerts for packages that are destined for my address (set up through FedEx Delivery Manager), and I got one earlier this week, it said the sender was: "BRIGHTPOINT C/O TIME WARNER" This ended up being the Samsung Gear VR package.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] Cubed Guru:
Sadly, I dont remember if I used my work address or home. So i am just SOL.

just got my rebate card approved today. Finally, I was starting to get worried since I applied on 3/11/16. I also emailed them yesterday and never received a reply. No email for the approval either
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] Skyrocket2:
Got mine approved today. Submitted on 3/17.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] tmaynehassuru:
I submitted mines 03/18/2016 and was approved on 04/28/2016. Still waiting for it to be mailed out apparently. I noticed that the rebate is only for $779.99. I had paid $54.60 taxes (7% Florida sales tax). I thought I would be getting that back too, since it is Buy 1 Get 1 FREE. Anyone know if it actually does come with it or a way to get them to credit that, or is it written somewhere in the terms and conditions that its pre-tax only?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] jasonm253:
Got denied due to paying off 1 in full. They reopened my EIP and escalated it to promotions and refunded the money back to my CC. Was happy they worked it out.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] siddhesh.raikar:
It was mentioned that the amount you be getting back is the price before tax..
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] tmaynehassuru:
Damn it, I know $56 is not much especially considering its $779 for the edge, though I wish they would make it clear on the sign it self like Buy 1 Get 1 then under it in smaller fonts if you will *Excluding Taxes*. Oh well thanks for the information though, still a great deal. Though they took their SWEET time getting it approved and stuff, with tech now a days I'm sure they could have done this A LOT quicker, bet they could even process it instantly if they really wanted to.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] ipaq_101:
They made it pretty clear to me online and in the store. I have never heard a company reimburse sales tax for promotions.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] tmaynehassuru:
Yea, well this was my first time in my life actually filling out a promotion, I have never claimed one before so wasn't clear on everything. The sales person did not mention about the sales tax and I assumed wrongly that it would be since it did say FREE, but oh well it's all good anyways. It just would have been nice if it was more clear like on the sign itself.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] will6316:
Got it an hour ago. Keep in mind you only get a $350 a day spending limit or your card will be declined. unless you call cardservices for a 1500 limit workaround.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] BowLow:
Got my card in the mail yesterday but good old T-Mobile and their stupid website. It's not letting me pay the phone off online which happen with the first time when I sold the extra.

*Just read about $350.00 limit...

Reading is power lmao!

Tmo is going to take their Sweet Axx time sending these rebates. They want to suck every penny out of the extra line and sitting on the money. Mine is over 8 weeks, it was approved weeks ago and still not mailed. There's no reason for this other than to squeeze us on that extra line most of us don't want.

And I have 2 phones I can't root.. perfect!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] am69002001:
well for all 4/26 tue is end of 3 weeks. call center said it be there. i called wed. they said should be in mail thur friday (not updated on site as mailed) Not holding breath

Well the 2-3 weeks means I should get my card by tomorrow, 5/17 as I was approved 4/26, that's the deadline right?

This has been such a painful process. I mean the phone was purchased 3/11 and over 2 months now and still no card.

Anyone get the card without the status being updated on the promo tracking site?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] android_8:
Phone purchased 3/11, bogo approved 4/26, still waiting been 6-8 weeks past purchase date and 2-3 weeks past 4/26 -- both time periods promised by T-Mobile and no card received in the mail yet. Samsung VR headset arrived ahead of promised time on their website - was expecting the reverse to happen - Samsung late and T-Mobile on time.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] Netconn:
Maybe we should all NOT pay our cell bill until we get the rebate Tmo promised in 6~8 weeks!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] A$hr@j:
Just an FYI for everyone whose BOGO is still in received status - try calling 1-800-298-9746 to confirm on the status. When I called, they informed me that there is some issue with the status updates on their website and hence still shows mine as received on 3/17. Also, that my case was actually approved on 5/11 and can take upto 3-4 weeks for the card to be mailed out.

Again, it's just their support guy's words so will still take it with a huge pinch of salt!!

Let's gather people who aren't approved and do this all at same time or day
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] thelonelyoctober:
My submission was received on 3/14, approved on 4/29 and has yet to be mailed. I spoke with a T-mobile rep yesterday who advised me to wait an additional 2 weeks due to internal delays. I am now passed the 8 week processing period. Interestingly enough, someone on another forum that I frequent posted the following when asked if their status was ever changed to "Mailed" before receiving their rebate card:

"Approved on 4/30 and it was mailed on 5/9. Received it on 5/13.

The mailed notification doesn't show up until a few days after it is mailed. For me, it didn't show as mailed until 5/12."
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] hatyrei:
Just spoke with the customer representative and he told me to allow another 2 weeks for your card to be mailed...cuz there's internal delay due to high demand. :( I guess we need to wait a little bit longer. Is there any compensation for the inconvenience they caused? Lol
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] orange1688:
They are bunch of liars. I spoke with the Tmobile rep, they told me to call citi card process center at 1866 598 3478 and all the information is sent over. However when I call , citi don't even have my information to process the rebate!!

My approval date was 4/26. Can someone else please call citi to see if they have your info?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] hatyrei:
Can I even sell this phone without having it fully paid? Lol. This rebate scheme is really getting inconvenient! :(
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] thelonelyoctober:
You can try, but most buyers these days are savvy enough to not buy a phone without proof that the IMEI is good and the EIP is paid off. I doubt you'll have much luck unfortunately.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] orange1688:
why do you want someone else to have the phone while this phone is linked to your tmobile account. In Tmboile's eye, you are the owner. Thats just not wise.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] ipaq_101:
Looks like we're at the mercy of t-mobile at this point. last time I fall for one of these bogo deals....
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] hatyrei:
:( T-Mobile an Evil company! Lol. Someone email FCC for wrong advertising. They should have stick to their disclosures...And we consumers suffers becuz they can't process it on time... due to high demand! :(
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] jasonm253:
Here's what I have gone through

1. They denied me because I paid it off early although I purcahsed it under EIP.

2. Was told it's not a big deal we will open the EIM again.

3. They opened it and never refunded my money.

4. I don't qualify again because the phone was never linked to my account.

5. The refund will come in a BOGO card.

6. Thought about it and called back a couple days later.

7. Talked to a guy who seemed the best I have talked to after talking to 5-6 ppl total.

8. I am working with just him now and he's supposed to call today. They are supposed to be refunding my money and sending my BOGO too.

9. Still waiting for the refund of the galaxy I paid off. EIP is still on the phone and no refund. So I have $1349 on EIP. Paid off one but they put it back on cause I would "qualify" no refund yet and just pissed.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] jakel24:

Edit: & just when I'm about to rant on, I get a call from my wife saying the VR has arrived!!! No email notification nor Fedex notice/text.. Even the status on Samsung promo is still the same.

Can't wait to reach home & try out the VR. Any tips or guidance towards the usage of VR?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] jasonm253:
After all this the card is in the mail now. I received a refund also on my CC since they were quick to reopen the EIP. Will just lay the phone back off again once I get the refund. Will probably pocket the card for a this mishap. Other phone is almost paid off.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] hatyrei:
I'm getting impatient already, it's been past 3 weeks for the mailing of the card. But the status is still on approved! And when you try to call them...all they say is wait a little longer! Seriously? 8weeks waiting for approval and 3weeks waiting for mailing. Gosh! Good Lord have Mercy! :(

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] ipaq_101:
Like I said, this is the last time I am falling for this. You have very little recourse if things don't go as they are suppose to. They will give you a number that goes to a third party and they will say anything to you to get you off the line...it's in the maill....oh you need to call this number.....you never qualified for it....BS.....all that after waiting hours on hold.

I called TMo and voiced my concern about being promised the gift card with in 8 weeks of filing for the promotion, and that I was approved 3 weeks ago, but still no card. They credited my account for this months payment on one of the phones, $32.50. Give them a call, be nice, but convey your being unhappy about the situation, and how this has given you a new look at T-Mobile. They will want to make you happy.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] jakel24:
Not you I'm pissed at tmobile cause I've been approved since the 26th of April and mine hasn't been mailed and you where approved on may 8th and yours is mailed
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] vipercoyote:
Same. They manually did my friends and said it would be mailed wedsnday. He called Tuesday . They told him he will get it around 26th and will do a check up call

Must be some truth to this.

Update..my friend just called again. They see no notes of the card being mailed but it was manually approved Sunday or Monday which they can see.

When my friend call wens day they said it would be mailed out that day. And arrive around 26th

I see other posters saying the same thing so I think a batch went out wedsnday

Either way me and friend have a whole other outlook on tmobile now

If it's been cut you'll get it next week around 26th. The rebate site will not update until later like after you get the card
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] vipercoyote:
From another forum:

If you text BAL to 7283 it will tell you a text message with amount of card if it was issued. So its a good way to find out if your card have been issued
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] jakel24:
Guess mine hasn't been issued then as it gives me balance on card I already have with them
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] vipercoyote:
Forgot to say probably have to text the number from the line you applied for the rebate
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Di] jakel24:
I did just showed the card I already had attached to the number from my work so the wait continues.

Also if it's anything like the prepaid card I have you have to register online and enter a number on the account before you can check balance but maybe this works different
