      Currently i do not have a list, however if you do purchase it on a plan from any service provider then it is valid. Will update as more information becomes available.

    The S8 is being announced soon, so from this promo, it must be getting announced on March 28th

    • Associateddealbuster14 @ Samsung on 10/01/2017 - 17:13

      According to reports, s8 is meant to be announced and release late April and not at the Mobile World Congress this year.

      • dpassionate on 12/01/2017 - 09:47

        Have anyone tried it for this promotion?

        • MattBuzzy on 12/01/2017 - 11:09

          I have, Samsung support said to contact Samsung Promotions and I got an Automated email from Samsung Promotions saying that the email address is no longer monitored. No luck so far.

        • dpassionate on 12/01/2017 - 11:29

          @MattBuzzy: Thank you !! let us know how you go… :)

        • MattBuzzy on 12/01/2017 - 11:45

          @dpassionate:

          No luck unfortunately, contacted live support and received this response:

          "I apologise but we cannot do that. The device must be purchase within the started time frame which is today, January 12 9:00 AM AEDT."

          Maybe if enough people contact them they will change their stance on this, really unfair for people who just purchased the device.

          Channels I tried were:

          http://www.samsung.com/au/info/contactus.html

          Email: [email protected]

        • mthucs on 12/01/2017 - 11:58

          So..

          I've tried live chat, email and calling them.

          No luck at all.

          Got this via email at 1201 am.

          "Dear ***,

          Thank you for contacting Samsung Electronics Australia.

          I understand that you would like to know how we can assist about our upcoming Gear Fit2 promotion.

          Upon checking on my resources, if you purchase a Samsung Galaxy S7 or Samsung Galaxy S7 edge between 9:00 am (AEDT) on 12 January 2017 and 11:59 pm (AEDT) on 27 March 2017, you will be eligible to receive a bonus Samsung Gear Fit2. Thus, your purchase of Galaxy S7 Edge will not be included as it was purchased outside the said dates.

          The best response I got was to go in in person and ask nicely (this was from the phone support guy) but he said no guarantees.

          I even tried the "I bought 2 recently and I'm loyal to the brand" line.

          Good luck everyone.

          Who on earth are you to tell me otherwise?

          I don't spend a single cent. Samsung's flagships do retain a lot of their value after 12 months, especially if I don't pay full retail for the phone in the first place.

          I'm making a profit here this year. hahaha

    Most likely this only includes retailers charging RRP which would mean you're still paying for the freebie in full.
    They've been doing this for a while with different 'free' things.
    Get a grey import and you can buy the freebie and still save money.

    • Associateddealbuster14 @ Samsung on 10/01/2017 - 19:54

      This does not only include retailers chargering RRP. If you get a new contract/upgrade at a telco such as Vodafone, Optus or Telstra you are still entitled to receive it.

      No it includes buying the phone outright and plans. if you get a plan you will need a proof of purchase or contract papers stating you signed up after the 12th

  • Chopel on 10/01/2017 - 20:46

  • PlasticSpaceman on 10/01/2017 - 21:00

    Almost bought an S7 today! Will wait a couple of days…. Thanks for the head's up.

    • PlasticSpaceman on 12/01/2017 - 09:32
      +1

      …and done. $55 for the S7 on Virgin mobile. 4GB data with monthly rollover, unlimited oz calls/text, $100 credit for signing up, $50 credit via cash rewards….

      So $55*24 = $1,320.
      Less $150 = $1,170
      Assuming the gear fit is worth around $200 then
      Less $200 = $970

      So effectively looking at around $40/month for the phone + unlimited plan on Optus 4G (Virgin). Assuming the plan alone is worth $30 per month then the mobile is costing me $240 all up. I actually was on the $40 Boost PAYG so this is now a pretty similar cost for me but I get the mobile thrown in. Yay.

      FWIW I contacted Virgin the other day, and the cost of the mobile is nominally $1032 so each month $43 would be paid off that. You pay $5, and Virgin credit $38. What that means is that if you decide to end the contract after (say) 12 months you just need to pay back $4312 = $516. Of course you'd be insane to do so unless you were leaving the country, as you would only 'save' $144 (4312-55*12).

      • bestdealsonly on 13/01/2017 - 10:36

        Do you get $50 credit from cashrewards because it says "Get the Galaxy S7 with Virgin Mobile for $60/month. Minimum total cost over 24 months $1,440" and the $55 doesn't come under that?

        • PlasticSpaceman on 13/01/2017 - 15:46

          I guess I'll find out in a week or so, but my understanding was that the $50 cashback was for any plan from Virgin Mobile. The Special Terms are just: "Cashback is paid on Post-Paid contracts only and is available and redeemed from Cashrewards "

  • adventbargain on 10/01/2017 - 21:49

      • Ayedeevee on 11/01/2017 - 12:26

        I assume all devices register with Samsung automatically when they first go online and that this information alone would be enough to knock back your claim. They will be expecting us.

    What an explosive deal

  • damoo on 11/01/2017 - 13:45
    +2

    Assuming you can onsell the gear fit for 200 bucks, this deal combined with this deal:
    https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/281740 (which now expires 31/1, not 11/1), means you effectively get an s7 for $250 total.

    Breakdown is this:
    *Virgin deal of 4g data + calls equal about $30/month of value
    *Paying $55/month means the s7 is costing you $25 x 24= $600
    * Minus $100 bonus credit = $500
    * Minus $50 cashback through cash rewards (must use desktop, not mobile for tracking apparently) = $450
    * Minus $200 after selling gear fit = $250

  • Lancerx on 11/01/2017 - 16:12

    So if I have receipt from second hand purchase from last week, would Samsung still honour the deal or it has to be purchased after 12/1

    • Kontiki on 12/01/2017 - 08:31

        Found this in the terms:

    Patiently waiting for:
    1) A list of participating retailers
    2) One of those retailers to put the S7 on sale

      There is a list if you start the claim process. It's a drop down store list.

      I guess buying from the list "mobilciti" will be under "other stores"
