Yeah I'm not worried about the taxes, even though I should complain (about 10% sales tax here).

My raku cb never showed up, but it was only 3%.
You can submit a missing cashback request on RK10's website. If you already have a long relationship with RK10, they will automatically add the cash back to your account immediately after you submit the request. At least this has happened to me a couple of times.

Quote from tofu. :
If amex steps in the solution will likely be you returning the phone for a full refund. It would be unusual for them to give you a partial refund unless you physically can't return the product or samsung refuses a return.
1) You can always wait until the return window is closed which is 15 days. In fact for most people, the return window probably has closed because well they shipped other items much earlier than the phone and Sammy requires to return everything together if I remember correctly. So even if you wanted to return the Sammy phone, you wouldn't be able to return b/c other items are not returnable. And considering how delayed their response is lately taking 3-4 business days at the last, I wouldn't be surprised if people's phone's return window is naturally closed b/c of those delayed correspondences.

2) A lot of people did trade-ins. If they mailed the trade-in phone, the deal is locked.

3) Where do you get the idea that AMEX will force the customer to return the items instead of giving partial refunds? Personal experience or just a guess? I think it's latter because they absolutely give partial refunds if the retailers don't follow through.

Why do you think AMEX will be responsible for the partial refund? They'll give you the refund and take the remaining from Sammy. Credit card companies often does partial refunds if the retailer overcharges or does not come through with promise.

You have this lofty idea about how credit disputes work. You usually don't end up with "free money." The end result for both parties is that they are put back into the position they were in before the transaction took place.

Yes, I agree samsung would be in the wrong for "promising" a price match (which is debatable because most of the overseas reps indicate that it'll have to be approved by supervisors in the future). I'm not arguing against that.


Point is, don't go into this thinking you're going to be slick and force your price match through a dispute with the cc company. Samsung will tell you kick rocks, and amex will tell you return the device.

Got this email:

Dear customer,
This email is regarding your order #XXXX
We want to keep you updated about the backordered item in your recent Samsung.com order. It is still planned to ship by the date listed on the My Orders page. If anything changes we will let you know.
Thank you for choosing Samsung


I am still waiting on my S21U 256GB and the smart tag but it doesn't say anything about backordered in the order page... strange but the S7+ tablet shipped already

You are the one who is misconstruing the current sitatuion and doesn't know how the credit dispute works. Price match isn't free money.

This is a simple contract through and through. Both parties agreed on a contract and one party decided to renege it afterwards with arbitrary reasons that weren't disclosed before. If you believe this isn't a contract
"I had gone through the earlier chat and your order as well and would like to inform you that you are eligible and I see your order has been shipped I will right away forward your request to the concerned team and update you with a refund confirmation Email within 2 business days."
I don't know what is your idea of contract is. Considering there are many irrevokable parts of this transaction where one party has to ship a trade-in or return window has closed fairly quickly due to staggering shipping, if you believe Amex will just ask the customer to return the item, you have no experience in credit dispute or how it works, Be honest. Do you even have an experience with credit dispute in similar circumstance? I do. Even recently I got partial refund because the company decided to charge undisclosed fees afterwards. I was well within return window. But VOILA. After investigation, they just refunded me those fees. You know why? Because it wasn't part of the contract.
In fact in some cases (which is corroborated by many DPs online), AMEX will just refund the entire amount of the transaction if the company didn't follow with the contract in full.

Thanks. I did that for missing cb from lenovo & another order last week, but no response yet. They instantly applied missing cb for a living social purchase but that was like $4.

Threaten a dispute with a credit card.
This is a contract. They promised a PM. Now they are reneging. It's a bait and switch.
And if they don't budge, file a dispute with the chat transcript of them promising PM.
did you get your price match refund or email??

I'm one of the guys that ordered the S21 which doesn't deliver until the 23rd, so there is no way to know what they are going to do. I'm expecting the worst, but hoping for better. I've saved the chat transcript where the CSR confirmed the PM. It's sketchy though because they don't explicitly state what form of "refund" will be given.

Refund is for non carrier-financed phones. I haven't heard of anybody getting a promo code instead of a refund - sure the reps will try to offer the promo code, just deny it and request a refund.

Now that I have phone confirmed, I may try for the tablet.
Quote from cheerrzz :
Did you have a 10 percent too? How did that go?
No, I didn't have a 10% just the phone price match.

I did chat to attempt to price match the S7+ from 929 to 799 and was approved through chat and the issue was forwarded along to another department. Just received a reply that they couldn't offer a price match because prices were the same. Not sure about that. I guess something got misunderstood along the way. Anyway, they did offer 10% off. I replied that I accepted that and now just waiting to see a confirmed amount or see it hit my credit card. Will it be 10% off entire order? Just the tab? Just the discounted price of the tab? We'll see.

Did you already do a PM on the same order for the phone as well? I ordered s7 256 and I think it's down to $600 on amazon.

So I got my email from Samsung for a $200 price adjustment. I replied right away bc the price was $300 for the S21 Ultra vs Best Buy's price (on the day I purchased and the day I received it).

I'm not holding my breath, but just wanted to let Slickdealers know.

Final Price for phone (after codes, trade-in of S20 FE and price match against Best Buy):
$431.74 (NOT INCLUDING TAX)
S21 Ultra 256GB and $100 in accessories.

Not bad.

I requested price match on the 3rd of march (when phone was delivered) and still got no answer. Samsung said that the request is pending waiting for approval. It's getting kind of frustrating already
