This is my first post, so please forgive any mistakes and happy to get advice on improving the post.

So I was just browsing through the Samsung Members App and found this deal. All you have to do is get a free health check done (hardly takes 5 mins) on your Samsung phone at any Samsung store (would recommend booking an appointment to reduce wait time) and you get a free Samsung 10000mAh Fast Charge Battery Pack worth $59 RRP. This is applicable for eligible Samsung Members, so please check if it is applicable for you (possibly only AU stock Samsung phones).

I have a S8 phone, so I would assume anyone with S8 or higher should automatically be eligible for the deal.

Hope it helps. Cheers

Edit:
Found this on the homepage / dashboard (bottom section) within the Samsung Members app. Didn't have to browse in the app.

Mod Note: Based on comments, it appears to be devices older than Samsung S8 and newer than Samsung S5. Samsung Members app is required.

    How to make booking?

    • lechuck123 on 27/03/2019 - 16:35
      +2

      My local store in Sydney didn't have bookings online left for today. So I just turned up and was able to see someone straight away.

      However if you want to book, here's the link
      https://www.samsung.com/au/samsungstore/bookings/

      • donga100 on 27/03/2019 - 20:21

        I did the same at Carindale (Bris) this afternoon. The guys there said I was the first person who had claimed it from them, guess that won't last much longer tomorrow.

      • MitchyD1989 on 28/03/2019 - 10:47

        I take it they still gave you the battery pack? My closest store has no bookings available this weekend so thinking I may just take a chance and drive the half hour there for something to do.

        Edit: Never mind, promotion is valid til the 14th, made an appointment for next weekend just to be safe.

      • kaebomb on 28/03/2019 - 16:01

        if you dont mind me asking, which store did u walk in for it?

      • db2k on 31/03/2019 - 19:29

        I walked into a store, had a booking for 2 weeks later - they weren't busy, and the guy told me to come back as they were "flat out busy"…

        I questioned how long it would take, and he mentioned 30 mins … so my calcs were 16 a day … in an empty store … but he refused … meh

        Will read other's experiences on this.

        • Magpye on 03/04/2019 - 15:15

          You might want to try your luck elsewhere. The promo ends on the 14th, and you're booked in for two weeks time ?
          Also, no guarantee they will have any battery packs left then, so it'll be purely an upsell opportunity for them.

          • db2k on 03/04/2019 - 18:26

            @Magpye: Walked in again today, walked out with the battery. The guy didn't do a good job of upselling, but I asked him the deal. $200 off a S10. Any Samsung AMEX deals??

    Would this work for Samsung phones bought from overseas?

      Probs not, everytime I've been in there for technical assistance and repairs that's the first thing they check. Then again, worth a shot if you have the time.

    • jimojr on 27/03/2019 - 15:34

      Yes, I have got the offer. My phone is S8+ from HK.

      • lostn on 27/03/2019 - 15:40

        Keep us updated if you actually get the free power bank. I've got an S6 from Kogan I'd like to try, but you go first.

          I just got my battery pack from Fountain Gate this morning.

          • lostn on 28/03/2019 - 12:49

            @jimojr: They did not check the region of the phone?

            Did you flash the ROM to an AU ROM?

            Do you have dual sim?

          • skyva on 28/03/2019 - 13:13

            @jimojr: Hi did you walk in our have an apointment? I couldn't seem to make an appointment through the app.

            • jimojr on 28/03/2019 - 13:31

              @skyva: My appointment is tomorrow noon. I just walked in.

    • pick on 29/03/2019 - 22:59

      No

  • Machaon on 27/03/2019 - 15:08

    Optus s9+ , just downloaded the app and can't see the offer. where do you see it? under Benefits?

    • lostn on 27/03/2019 - 15:36
      +4

      Front page, scroll to the bottom.

      S9 might be too new to require a health check.

  • zakarados on 27/03/2019 - 15:09

    no dice on s10+

  • ChippyD on 27/03/2019 - 15:09
    +2

    Not showing up in my S10+. I'd almost guess you would need an older phone to be eligible? (old phone, poorer battery performance etc.)

    • EnALup on 27/03/2019 - 16:21

      Same. though I have also my S8+. I will try on that as well.

  • scrimshaw on 27/03/2019 - 15:11

    Doesn't show on my Note 9 either. I guess it's too new to require health checks.

    I am seeing a 6 month Calm wellness subscription offer.

      Note 9 - Also seeing the calm offer, but no battery pack.

    Cheers OP, had the offer in my app (Galaxy S8), booked for next Thursday night :)

  • kudoz on 27/03/2019 - 15:15

    Not showing up on my Note 8… maybe it's just S8's after all then…

  • Distort on 27/03/2019 - 15:16

    Offer wasn't on my S10, but was on my S8

    • lostn on 27/03/2019 - 15:35

      Same here.

      Sweet. Booked. I hope they have stock.

      If you have the offer it will be on the front page. Scroll down to the bottom. If your phone is too new, it won't appear.

  • firedragon on 27/03/2019 - 15:19

      S5 was the glory days when a battery change was a DIY job and you could buy the battery for $10.

    I can't find the terms and conditions for the Australia offer on the Samsung Australia website

    A similar offer in the UK was valid for S5, S6, S6 edge, S6 edge+, S7, S7 edge, S8, or S8+

  • 456 on 27/03/2019 - 15:33

  • Bubble Tea on 27/03/2019 - 15:34

      This is the free power bank.

      • spaceflight on 27/03/2019 - 15:56

        It looks like a Xiaomi

      • lostn on 27/03/2019 - 15:56

        Do you know if the Type C port is for input only or output too? By calling it "Dual" I assume it is input only but not sure.

        • WhoziAu on 01/04/2019 - 16:59

          The type C goes both ways!

          • lostn on 01/04/2019 - 18:49

            @WhoziAu: Really? I wasn't able to get mine to charge anything on that port. I used a C-C cable.

            I tried it on a phone, then on my Switch. None of them charged.

      • Samsungnote10 on 27/03/2019 - 16:36

        Done!

        Got mine already!

          The guy at Samsung Parramatta refused to do the health check on the spot. Asked me to make an appointment.

          • Samsungnote10 on 27/03/2019 - 17:29

            @RichardL: I actually did book for next week, but when i walked past there there was no customers so maybe that's why

          • FlindersStud on 28/03/2019 - 15:02

            @RichardL: I walked in at Samsung Marion during lunch hour break. The guy was more than happy to assist.

              @FlindersStud: I went to the Sydney Store after, and they did on the spot (just had to wait ~30min).

        • Geoff897 on 30/03/2019 - 15:25

          I just showed up @ Carousel and they did the test and gave me the battery no booking. Said my S8 battery was not holding charge and i could send it off for replacement takes 2-3 weeks.

    showed up on my S8+, I clicked it and said you are not eligible for this offer,
    I went back and clicked it again and it showed up, I was going to make a booking but they only take 1pm to 4pm, is a booking necessary?

    • Avalanche on 27/03/2019 - 15:44

      No, booking is not compulsory. You can directly visit the store and show them the offer on your phone.

        Looking at the promo it does say click below (details) to make a booking OR to find a store, so I don't think it is necessary to book.

        • db2k on 31/03/2019 - 19:33

          Thats what i said as well … but i got told to make a booking and come back later …

          The guy also told me it was targeted at users with an older phone, so when they come in the sales team can upsell the features of S10 …

    • RichardL on 27/03/2019 - 16:37

      I just showed the offer before doing the health check to confirm if it is really applicable for me as I thought it was too good to be true :P
