    Lol. Do a shred of research before posting rubbish like this. The only country that's getting a different chip is the US and that because Qualcomm have a contractual agreement with the US telcos to supply all of the chips with compatible CDMA radios. Every other country get the exact same as us. Even South Korea.

  As i posted above if you haven't opened the box you have two eeeks for change of mind refund. Check to see if you're eligible.

    But I doubt they refund the trade-in value of the old phone. Mine came to $150 for an iPhone. Do they refund that as well, or do I have to go through a lengthy process with Asurion?

        Device Non-Return Fee means a fee which is equal to the amount of the discount You received when Your unique Trade ID was applied at the point of sale when You purchased Your New Samsung Device Online in accordance with clause 5.2 of these Terms and Conditions.
        
        Does this mean trade in value plus the bonus $400? Because that is what you get when you put the trade id

- Sketch3 on 13/05/2021 - 23:01
  
  Adding the prices up it looks like it would cost me around $800, which is $200 more than the FE because I would need to buy an old iphone somewhere.

Risking getting slapped with $400 plus trade up value for non device return is a substantial risk. Reading through the messages I'm not so confident.
- ozbjunkie on 14/05/2021 - 00:44
  
  Could always send the phone in if they charge 400. Or return the new phone.

  Yep looked through the terms and conditions and it said you would have to pay the monetary value and you would get no trade in bonus. Doesn't seem worth risking to me.

    When you actually go through the trade-up process, it tells you how much you'll be charged if it's not sent in - it's the value of the phone without the $400.

  Ended up pulling the trigger and purchased S21 Ultra 5g 256GB for $1044.
  The iphone 6s trade value $5 (agree it shows only liability of $5 if not returned, but that is only showing in the trade up app).
  The order shows iphone 8 although went through the app and given it the imei.

    Past threads did state that if the phone isn't returned, the price given as a discount is charged to credit card, but there is no clawback on the $400 (was $500 then). I'll keep my Note 9 for $145 (was $195 last month).

      Be aware that this is all based on peoples interpretation of the T&Cs. If you're considering going down this path you'd be mad to not read the T&Cs yourself and make your own call.

        @wombat81: Good advice. In my case I did read through T&C's rather than my usual BS tickbox answer (our biggest lie on the internet is that we read the terms and conditions).
        
        I made (trying vouchers now) to go down the path, as others have apparently done so successfully and my assumption is that the discounts are offered by Samsung, while the trade price is offered by Asurion. I'm only guessing but say they get the kickback for refurb handsets and recycling while Samsung gets the promo and clears old handsets out of the market. If so I'd expect the handset value to be rejected and charged to CC entered in the TradeUp app, and the extra $400 value to be retained as it's linked to the online store transaction.

Tried to ask the Samsung People to give me the $50 newsletter voucher but the one I got said they don't have access to those and that it was the 'Support' people who had access, so perhaps if you're going to give that a go don't choose the Sales option, pick the Support option. She said she would liaise with Support so I didn't give them a try myself

HUGE WORD OF CAUTION - had an atrocious experience with Samsung's trade-in mechanic earlier this year.

It's run by a third-party company called Asurion, who offered a similar bonus offer earlier this year when the S21 Ultra came out. I traded my S20 Ultra in towards it, thinking I'd be getting a large bonus amount for it (was around $750 all up or something, can't quite recall now).

I got an e-mail to say the condition (which was very good) didn't match the description and so they were effectively going to give me $80 once all was said and done. Also worth noting that I scoured their T&C's, and while it stated you'd get less value if the phone didn't match the description, it never states anywhere how much, and it certainly doesn't state $80 for a $2k+ phone. I am sure this is how they scam plenty of folks out there and score some cheap devices.

Given I'd spent $2100 or something on it 10 months earlier on release, I was no doubt flabbergasted. They gave no other details as to why it 'didn't match the description'. My e-mails to them (of which there were several) went ignored for weeks.
Finally, I escalated it to a contact of mine who knows folks at Samsung, and I got a call from them apologising and that they would look into it with Asurion.

Finally a week later, someone from Asurion contacts me. They send me a zoomed in photo on the camera panel at the back which showed a microscopic (almost not even visible to the human eye) crack on the bottom corner of the camera glass. This has since been revealed as a possible design fault and there's a case against Samsung in the US about it - but I digress. I'd never noticed it, so it's entirely possible it happened during shipping, or maybe they even did it themselves when I questioned the whole process - I've got no idea.

Asurion also has zero contact details on the internet, it's like they don't exist. If I didn't have a way into them I doubt I'd have ever heard back. In the end I told them to just send it back, as in the great condition it was in I could easily fetch $800-1000 on eBay.

PLEASE AVOID!
- CodeXD on 14/05/2021 - 09:32
  
  A lot of people here are not sending in their old phone for trade in and opting to pay for the difference. In which case Asurion will just charge for the value of the phone and that'll be the end of that.
  - clandestino on 14/05/2021 - 10:25
    
    The terms and conditions state that a device non-return fee will be charged.
    
    The fee is defined as: " a fee which is equal to the value of the discount you received when your unique trade ID was applied at the point of sale when you purchased your new samsung device online"

  While I sympathise with you, I see no wrong doing here. There was a crack on it - this is a fact. Whether you saw it or not is irrelevant. When the crack occurred is also irrelevant. Asurion can only assess what they have in front of them….
  - wombat81 on 14/05/2021 - 09:48
    
    Yep agree. As much as it sucks, a crack is a crack and they are pretty clear that damage makes the device ineligible. If it was me, I would be requesting/demanding the device be returned to me, pay the difference and sell it privately.

    You are forgetting that Asurion also need to take into consideration that they are in the business of dealing in second hand goods.
    
    They cannot be in a business like that and set the bar of acceptability at perfection.
    That is unreasonable conduct.
    
    They are already covering themselves financially by paying customers well below the usual second hand sale price for trade ins.
    
    For them to be doing that AND also rejecting/further diminishing tradein values is double dipping.
    
    Cash convertors have the same business model but without the unreasonable double dipping- they pay well below sale prices for second hand goods to ensure they are covered if/when they get sold lemons which they cannot resell.
    
    Eg:If you sold them a second hand phone for $50 (that cash converters expect they can get $150 for), cash converters won't come chasing for $20 if they only sell it for $130 and/or they find problems with the phone after inspection.
    
    They take the risk of not reselling on, and price the offer they will give you accordingly (usually they will pay ~30% of what they expect to be able to resell something for)
    
    Asurion have made a business decision to not do pre tradein deal inspections it's on them to price in the risks associated with that accordingly.
    
    I have a hunch that a lawyer would find that you are entitled to your phone back x2 jason and the whole tradein deal is void because you and aurison never actually agreed to terms.

    Yep, not denying that.
    But there's also no denying that the value of the phone - "even if it was borderline destroyed" as someone said to me, was, and still is greater than $80.
    
    To try and give a consumer that much for a trade-in is borderline criminal, and as I wrote, not mentioned in their T&Cs anywhere, just a nasty little surprise you get at the end without any details.
    
    Horrible, horrible company.
- Sammyboy on 14/05/2021 - 09:49
  
  Asurion keep claiming they haven't received my 2 phones. Tracking says they were received. I got a reply from one of the emails I sent only for one of the phones. No response for the 2nd phone claim. But 2 days ago I got 2 emails again for each phone saying they weren't received. Seems to be a problem based on comments on the other deal post. I sent another email for both phones saying tracking for each had shown delivered. No response from them yet. Looks like they will end up trying to charge me and then Ill have to do the charge back at this rate

I'm sharing chat info I'm receiving in case this helps. Not sure I believe this is correct…

"Asurion Australia Pty Ltd facilitates the trade-in process of Samsung. If you have any queries/errors/issues about the Samsung Trade-Up program, you will need to email Asurion using this email address [email protected] and they will respond to you within 48 business hours."

"Alternatively we can request an AU $200 voucher code discount that you can use for the S21, S20, or N20 series (AU$150 for S20FE and S20FE 5G) when to purchase devices on the Samsung Online Store.
- The discount voucher code is no longer stackable to other discounts (e.g Samsung Trade-up) effective May 30, 2021.
- The discount voucher code is not transferrable.
- The discount voucher code is only valid 7 days upon issuance, and will be sent by email within 48-hours."

This contradicts what we've been seeing, but it's strange they said no longer stackable but dated it as the end of this month?

Here to gloat!

S21 128G ordered for $389. $60 for trade on a S9 (which I will likely keep).

I was patient and waited for the $50 sign up voucher. No luck with chatbot or the contact number. Yesterday the [email protected] was bouncing, but today I retried and the email didn't bounce, got an immediate reply acknowledgement, then the email with the code to my outlook email account about one hour later. Codes stacked.

Plus the order confirmation email did arrive.

Thankyou OzB and OP.

  How long did your $50 sign-up voucher take? Still waiting for mine, been almost 24 hours. Just to clarify you got a $200 voucher via that email address?

    The $50 was about an hour today after emailing online.store. I got the $200 via chat and not using email.

    People are saying if you didnt get it straight away or by 1 hour, then you wont get it at all and should try different email addresses.

    Ring up and tell them to send the email about the $50 voucher. Mine arrived within 30 minutes after I called.

if one sends a screen cracked S8 back will they change $35 or $35+$400 ?
- debo on 14/05/2021 - 11:08
  
  Pls scroll back for discussions on that. Popular opinion is just the $35.
  - 4foxache on 15/05/2021 - 00:14
    
    Anyone actually not returned the phone and can share the experience? Only charged device trade-in value and bonus $400 wasn't clawed back? I know the popular 'opinion' is trade-in value only but be good to hear from someone who's actually done it to know for sure.
- CodeXD on 14/05/2021 - 11:09
  
  If you know you're gonna be paying for the phone as 'not described' may as well not send it in and just keep it. You'll be paying the same regardless.
  - HillValleyHustle on 14/05/2021 - 11:12
    
    Agreed. Has anyone done this (didn't send it) and got only charged $35 (in this example). Not got charged $35 (in this example) + $400 ?

This was posted 2 years 11 months 7 days ago, and might be an out-dated deal.

Samsung Galaxy S21 128GB $449, S21+ $649, Ultra $949 (after $400 Trade-in and Stackable $200 & $50 Discounts) @ Samsung Store
