Trade-In Info
Overview: If Samsung is processing trade-ins like prior deals, you will receive instructions by email--along with a prepaid shipping label--around the time your new phone arrives. You can also print the label from your online Samsung account.
You will send in the phone only (no boxes, chargers, SIMs, cases, etc.). Exception: If you are trading a Note series, the S Pen must be included. Phone must be factory reset and have no passwords or locks. Good practice: Make a VIDEO and take photos of the phone, including showing some functions, to prove the condition if Samsung challenges you after inspecting the phone. More details....

My phone has scratches [or burn in or faulty Bluetooth or fill in the blank]. Will Samsung accept the phone? Will the trade in amount be reduced? According to the FAQ, "Your device must have no breaks, cracks, or other defects that go beyond normal wear and tear." Is your issue normal wear and tear?
When/how will I get instructions for trading in my phone? Samsung will send you an email with the subject "Welcome to the Samsung Trade-In Program." The email will arrive anywhere from the day the phone ships to a few days after the phone arrives. It includes a link to download a pre-paid shipping label. You have 15 days from receipt of the email to ship the trade in. You can also get the shipping label for the trade in from your online Samsung account under order details.
Two commonly asked questions about financed and leased phones:
1. The device I'm trading in is one that I bought using an equal payment or other financing plan, and I still have payments left on it. Can I still trade it in?
Yes – however, please note that all remaining payments on the device you're trading in are your responsibility. You may also be subject to additional fees. Check with your current carrier for details.
2. lease my device. Can I trade it in?
No – leased devices are not eligible for this Trade-In Promotion unless you purchase the leased device from your carrier before trading it in. Check with your carrier for details.

Sorry to inform you that when you placed your pre-order you were able to redeem the best credits and discounts Samsung offered! Currently, these pre-order benefits are no longer available. I checked the details you provided and we cannot price match this.
The prices and promotions on our website are time sensitive. It changes time to time. Once it changed, we don't have the option to honor the current discounts.

The discount of the trade-in was changed and we can't price match with the current trade-in value.

Pretty sure when all trade-in, discounts, credit card and Rktn stuff is factored in, I will have gotten S22U512GB and S8Ultra256GB+Keyboard for $576 after tax (after trading in my S21U and S7FE) -- and while I'm fine with the S7FE, I anticipate that the S8Ultra256GB will be a giant upgrade worth even missing the extra $150 (on my invoice they actually are only charging me $99 after trade-in for the tablet upgrade)
But, If I hadn't taken advantage of the tablet bundle and all the discounts that were available then during pre-order, I would have returned the phone to get the extra $150.. Guess it depends on your situation.
Thanks to OP for sharing despite it not working any longer...
Like you're living in an alternate reality. Yes they removed similar features but that was to add additional radios and battery capacity. Samsung is literally ahead of Apple in every single feature that Apple releases too so your comment is doubly nonsense
