Samsung Galaxy S21 Plus $599 ($500 off + $300 Trade-In Bonus and $100+$50 Vouchers) @ Samsung

2630

Not sure if it's a mistake, but only the S21 Plus is currently $500 off RRP on the Samsung website. This can be stacked with the trade in bonus of $300, and the usual vouchers ($150 or $250).

Price for the 128gb S21 Plus:

$1,549
- $500 sale
- $300 trade in bonus
- $100 EDS code
- $50 newsletter voucher
= $599 after discounts

This assumes you are not returning the phone you are using for trade in. This works out to be the same as this popular deal.

Alternatively, if you have a CDS loyalty voucher, you can use that in place of the EDS and get an extra $100 off. The vouchers are supposed to expire in 30 days (newsletter) and 7 days (EDS, CDS), but I have had months old ones work fine at checkout.

More detail on discounts

Sale Price - $500 off RRP discount
This is the current sale price. You don't have to do anything to get this discount.

Trade In - $300 bonus discount
You have to apply to do a trade-in to obtain this discount. That means downloading the trade-in app on an eligible phone, entering credit card details and getting the trade-in number to enter at checkout. You do not have to actually send it in when time comes. Based on previous experiences, you will not have to pay back the $300 discount (or any administration / penalty fees), but will have to repay the trade-in value of your phone.

Newsletter Signup - $50 MA code
Sign up for the Samsung newsletter via the banner at the bottom of the page. You can email [email protected] to get a manually generated code if you never get the email.

Chat Code - $100 EDS code
Request via green circle chat icon that appears at the bottom right of the page. Mention you want to upgrade your Samsung phone and could they help lower the price since your phone has a trade-in value of $0 because it's broken.

Loyalty Voucher - $200 CDS
Note that you either use this or the EDS code, as they reportedly no longer stack.
Request via email to [email protected]. Provide photos of a broken S20 series Samsung phone, including front with IMEI showing on screen and back. Give them a week to respond, though it's supposed to be a response within 48 hours.

      same.. got to chat to a nice filipino lady, but was not too helpful

  • how do we get the $300? is it maximum or the fixed amount? I ran the Samsung trade up and got the id which got me $155. How do I get $300 instead of $155?

    • +2

      you get $300 after you get to checkout, which is the additional bonus for trading in an eligible phone

      • +1

    Yesterday i entered my old Samsung phone IMEI
    number to trade in . However i was using my iphone 12. And trade in app registered my old S9 imei number but registe The device as IPhone 12 with $745 trade in discount.
    And i used prepaid credit card to pay the balance.
    So my question is what happens if i dont return any of the phones? They definitely can’t charge on my credit card

    • As mentioned in the post you just have to repay the trade in value of your phone

    • They definitely can’t charge on my credit card

      If you don't let them charge back your trade in value be careful with your credit rating.

    • I hope you are not trying to keep the phone and also not paying up the trade in value (not the bonus).

    • -1

      You can only wonder. What address/phone number/ other personal details did you give them while doing the trade-in and while ordering the phone?

  • cant reach any customer service staff on the chat. It is keeping being closed after a long wait. no response at all.

  • I'm not getting $500 bonus trade in in s21+

    Only 300

    • Only 300

      Title only said $300 bonus

      • Oh misread haha

  • Your estimated trade in price based on your info is $5^^ until 20.12.21

    • do you have any spare trade in ID in exchange of EDS code?

  • Anyone having issues with trade-up app, it just comes with error "something went wrong"

  • To confirm for the trade-in , can I use any old eligible device download the app get the trade-ion code and not send in the phone? Afterwards, all that I need to do is repay the trade-in value (not including the trade in bonus of $300?). Will this affect anything else? Like will samsung flag my credit card or samsung account for future purchases if i dont send in the old phone? Just want to make sure

    • Check old Samsung trade in deals, you have to do it at your own risks.

  • I read so many answers people didn’t get any email about sending their phone back

    • You’re asking us to condone fraud…

  • Can anyone that bought the phone, post a screenshot of their invoice? Might try to do a price match. Thanks!

  • The question now is, which color should I go for.

  • Requesting a Voucher

    Please send the following to [email protected] to request a voucher:

    Subject title: Loyalty Voucher Request
    Name and Contact number
    Model and Serial number
    Proof of purchase
    The photo/s should show the front and back of the device with IMEI

    Our support team will get back to you within 2-3 business days.

    To redeem the Loyalty Voucher, please swipe to the right.

  • So I just got off a chat with Samsung and they told me this:
    A couple of important reminders;
    - Loyalty Codes can only be used on our Regular Online Store (not usable on Education Store and other Partnership Programs)
    - Loyalty Codes can't be used together with $50 Sign-Up Bonus
    - Loyalty Codes are only valid for 7 days
    - Loyalty Codes can only be used once per transaction
    - Loyalty Codes can only be used with flagship devices (S21 series, Z Flip3, Z Fold3)

    They gave me a loyalty voucher instead of a chat code. Is there a difference? Important note also said "
    - Loyalty Codes can't be used together with $50 Sign-Up Bonus" :(

    • Seems like chat code can be used with $50 sign up but not loyalty code. In the past s21 ultra deal, could use loyalty together with sign up code. Maybe it has changed.

      So how to specifically get chat code? Just ask straight up for a chat code to use for purchase?

      • I'm also not sure on that. Maybe OP can share what he actually asked for on the live chat. I'm going to try again in a few hours time and see if they give me a code which can be used with the sign-up bonus.

        • I couldn't get them to stack anymore.

          But do try clearing cache first or on other PC or phone..

        • does your code start with EDS or CDS?

          • @pitpicker: The one I got from live chat starts with EDS so it seems like it should stack with the sign-up bonus?

            • +1

              @elecpurch: yea, it should, lots of people used it together already.
              let us know if they changed that.

              • @pitpicker: great, just waiting for the sign-up $50 bonus to hit my mailbox.

              • +1

                @pitpicker: Still works. Got a S21+ 256GB for $679.00 (+$20.00) for my old phone which I am not returning :D

    • Have you tried entering those codes in the checkout step to verify it yourself? What is the first 3 digits of the code?

  • -2

    My S20 FE 5G seems to have a lot better selfie camera?
    32 MP, f/2.2, 26mm (wide), 1/2.74", 0.8µm

    • Based on what? The MP count?
      What about the µm for example?

      I highly doubt that the front camera on the s20fe produces better pictures conpareed to the s21's

  • They have updated the T&C now you have to upload your ID on the Samsung Trade-up app.
    It may affect your credit score if you don't return you old device

    • Didn't they always had that? (I am sure I had to provide photo ID back in May)

      • It didn't require upload photos ID in May

        • +1

          Weird, I could swear I had to upload my photo ID, I didnt send the device back then, and then the device became not eligible of trade up.
          Other than that I was able to get a loyalty voucher.

      • I don't need to from last last last deal.

    • +3

      lol, it only affects credit scores when u owns the money. in this case, they will just take the money out of your CC. u own them nothing.

      same as if the phone u send in is not as discribed. they will return it to u and charge ur CC, will this affect your Credit score? lol

  • This shows as $1049 after $500 off?

  • Can't ever get any of these deals tried nearly all of them and always get the error that the trade in service is unavailable when I enter my trade in code

    The support chat is next to useless

  • Anyone has any spare trade in id in exchange of EDS code? Doesn't matter if it has $10 value

    • Trade in ID linked with their personal details,DOB ,address and Credit card linked to it. So no one will share Trade In ID.

      • But i wont have any access to these details right? or I am missing something in here? Anyone generating this id has already shared their details with samsung already so if someone else use it they won't have any access to personal detail.

        • +1

          Since you won't be returning the device that they own, they will get charged the trade-in value (even if it's only $10) from their credit card. The EDS code would only be useful to them if they were actually buying a phone, in which case they would also be needing their trade in id for the extra $300 discount.

  • +2

    Just shows Samsung drops value so fast and easily.

    In the Android world now the only brand worth getting is Pixel directly from Google.

    Otherwise cheap Chinese ones from Xiaomi

    No questions asked

    • +3

      but that's the point though right, I'd rather get Samsung for 500 than 1k+ pixel

      • Yes but you need trade in a phone and Samsung isn’t worth it to me. Support and after sales software isn’t great

    • every phone depreciates like a rock save for iphones

    • tbh the samsung trade in bonus more than make up for this if you stay in their ecosystem.

      iphones hold their value much better but you are also typically paying more for them upfront.

  • HI Guys, I really appreciate if some one could share me the $50 signup code.
    TIA.

    • +1

      share me the $50 signup code.

      I don't think anybody have one, very difficult to get it now,.

      • Yes, They are not replying with the code.

  • Anyone else getting this error below? Tried different browsers, different computers

    "Sorry, due to an error, trade-in service is unavailable at the moment"

    • "Sorry, due to an error, trade-in service is unavailable at the moment"

      You didn't put credit card details in the trade up app.

  • No luck with getting eds or signup code. Have emailed them and tried online chat few times but cant seem to get hold of an agent. My live chat sessions keeps getting terminated. Any tips?
    Edit- Finally Managed to get EDS code. Just need to score a $50 singup voucher now

    • How did you get eds code?

  • Do you loose all your data if you download the trade-in app?

  • Looks like it’s all out of stock.

  • +2

    After countless attempts at getting one of these deals, i pulled the trigger without getting the $50 code which i have never received after so many applications. Still, $650 for a S21+ is pretty damn good.

    • +1

      Same story as you but instead of $650 paid $750 for 256 gb model.

      • +2

        Yep, bought 256 silver s21 plus for 699, used 50 and 100 vouchers, lucky they send me a 50 voucher 2 hours after I emailed them yesterday at 1pm. And 100 is from 3 weeks ago I got from chat.

        Just sold my 1 day old S20 FE 128g SD version for 600, purchased from edu store on Black Friday for 470.lol

        • now this is what i call an ozbargainer

    • same as you, except 40m after transaction, they send me the $50 newsletter code (haha) - sounds like my life story right there. Feels like Samsung are conspiring against me. Still $600 for a S21+ not gonna complain.

      Anyone need a [FREE] $50 newsletter code PM me. First come first serve.

      • @mistertechman28 can't seem to pm you. Would appreciate it though if you still have it. :)

      • Can I have also Have it please, I'm unable to get that code from samsung.

      • So u did not use 50 voucher, then how u get 600 for s21 plus 128g? May be a trade in worth 50?

  • Will they lock my old phone, if i do not send it to trade in?

    • Nope. I am typing this from a phone i did not return in sept

      • Have they charged you anything? I am Intending to keep my phone but I am worried they may put this on my credit file as a default

        • it only affects credit scores when u own them the money. in this case, they will just take the money out of your CC. u own them nothing.

          same as if the phone u send in is not as discribed. they will return it to u and charge ur CC, will this affect your Credit score? lol

          If u do not let charge your credit card, so they cannot get the trade in value from you, then u will be in trouble , not just bad credit, but also considered as Fraud…..

        • Yes they charged me trade in price of $130 for my s10

  • +2

    Thanks OP. Got a S21+ 256GB for $679.00.

  • Is anyone experiencing issues while applying trade in voucher?

    • Did you upload your driver's licence when doing trade in

      • yes

        actually i have uninstalled and re-installed the trade up app - to get a second code (not sure if that is in play here)

        • I get an error at checkout

  • Are there many people who didn’t send their trade in phone?

    Have they charged anything on your credit card?

    Can they default you if you don’t send the phone back and your credit card can not be charged by them?
