It is outrageous what is happening, I bought mine samsung smart washer and dryer in 2017 and now, march 2022, after 4,5 years the washer is not working properly, the cycle stops in the middle and stops spinning. Samsung sent a tech, charged me $140 and samsung told me they cannot help me, as the part to fix it is not available.

Has been 4 weeks now. I even offered them a trade in, so I could get it resolved and buy a new one for fair price - a machine like this should last 15 years… they said no.

On 12 February, upgraded MTN contract, qualified for promotional Tablet through Samsung. Called promotional number 12 March and consultant confirmed receipt of confirmation and confirmed reference number, noting delivery 5/10 working days.

Tried on numerous occasions since to get hold of samsung, holding for ages no consultants.. email numerous times, no response.

Its now 4 April, no Tablet, just tried again, held for 20 Min, no response, sent another email.

Have no idea whether the Tablet will actually be delivered. Should'nt MTN take some responsibility?

Samsung Repair Service SUCKS!

I received this A32 phone from T-Mobile last August. Last week it said that my memory was getting full (even though I only had a few photos & downloads). I took it to a T-Mobile repair center. They said the best solution was to do a factory reset. Because the "Other" memory was full and couldn't be deleted.

I went home a did a factory reset. After doing the reset I got a message saying that my phone was maintained by Knox and that it belongs to Summa Healthcare.

I never heard of Knox OR Summa Healthcare. THAT is why I contacted the T-Mobile headquarters. T-Mobile said to take it to UBreakItIfixIt to have the Summa/Knox programming removed.

I took my phone and the original receipt and drove to 4 UBreakItIFixIt locations. I drove 160 miles total. Every location sent me to ANOTHER location. None of them could remove the Summa/Knox programming.

Frustrated, I called the T-Mobile headquarters again. They connected me to Samsung. The person at Samsung said that they would repair or replace the phone because of the Summa Healthcare/Knox programming.

I assume that I received a refurbished circuit board in my "new" phone and by doing the factory reset, it triggered the prior program.

Please replace the phone with one that has not been refurbished and still contains prior programming.

I called Samsung and told the rep what happened. She said she understood and provided a UPS label for me to send my phone for repair. I sent my phone to Samsung for the first time.

03/15/2022: I received my UNREPAIRED phone back from Samsung

I called Samsung and was told that I needed to provide proof-of-purchase. I emailed a copy of my phone purchase receipt to [protected]@sea. samsung.com. Jesus, the Samsung rep, said everything would be taken care of and not to worry. He provided a UPS return shipping label for me to send the phone back a second time.

Dear DENNIS YOUNG,

I then called Samsung and asked to speak to someone in authority. I was transferred to a man in “Case Management”. I explained my situation to him again and was told that I needed to provide proof-of-purchase again. I emailed a copy of my purchase receipt to [protected]@sea. samsung.com for the second time.

I then called a man at Samsung-Knox. He said he understood what happened and tried to pull up my phone’s information in his system. He said there was no record for my phone. He suggested that I ask for a new phone since he doubted that the Knox programming was embedded into the software and could not be removed. I called Samsung customer service back and told them what the fellow from Samsung-Knox told me. The service rep provided me with a UPS return label to send the phone back for the third time.

Outraged, after seeing this bill, I called Samsung and asked what these charges were for. I was told that my phone was damaged, and the lens was cracked and that was the cost to repair it.

I demanded to speak to someone in authority and was transferred to Jesus in Case Management. After explaining to him that my phone was in pristine condition when I shipped it from the local UPS office, he said that it was probably damaged in transit and waived the fee as a “one-time” courtesy.

03/28/2022: I received my phone back from Samsung

The phone’s operating system was still maintained by Samsung-Knox. Nothing was done to fix it.

I called and spoke to Jesus in Case Management. He said he understood the problem and provided a UPS label so that I could sent the phone back for the fourth time.

I called Samsung and asked to speak to someone in authority. I was transferred to Juan who said they don’t deal with Case Management. He transferred me to “Awarilyn” (SP?) who said they needed the Knox code. I explained that I don’t know ANYTHING about a Knox Code because this is my private personal phone and it is not maintained by Samsung-Knox!

I purchased a top of the line Samsung Washer and Dryer from Best Buy in 2020. The Washer is a front loader/dual washer with all the bells and whistles. I loved it for about 1.5 years and it stopped working. I got a bunch of Unbalanced load error. I called Samsung and they said to fix the problem they would need to install a new tub and drum. They offered to pay for the parts (warranty of their units are only one year) which was very thoughtful of them. As a consumer I expect my washers to be manufactured with high quality standards. Now for the unfortunate part, I am unable to get the washer fix because Samsung can't get the parts to fix the washer. Not only can they not get the parts they have no eta and when the parts will be available... I've already waited a month for the parts and still no ETA on availability. I could be waiting 6 months to a year to fix my washer. So I asked Samsung if they would give me a discount on a new washer (I can't wait 6 months to a year to wash my clothes). Their answer was no, they will not provide me a discount. It's Unfortunate that Samsung does not stand behind their product. I will not make the same mistake twice. My next purchase will be an LG or Wirlpool.

I bought my dryer with installation from Samsung 9/2021. It was working fine until 3/13, and then it stopped heating. I have not moved or touched my dryer since Samsung installed. When I called Samsung, they had a NISI person come out to look at the issue. The Tech stated it was from installation, and it was wired wrong and this is not covered under warranty. Then I was sent to Ecommerce who handle installations, and they said it was past 30 days from installation. They said I need to contact Warranty again, and explain. It has been two weeks at this point, and I have talk to 10 people.

Two points here...1. If it was installed wrong, why has it been working for 5 months? 2. Samsung installed the dryer, and I paid them.

The warranty people just told me today Samsung will not pay for the tech to fix. I have to pay for the tech to fix, since it was wired wrong. Why should I have to pay again for Samsung to fix when they are the ones that installed it incorrectly?

I bought my dryer from Samsung in effort to have a smooth transition with repairs. I will never buy anything from Samsung, and their customer service is terrible.

I purchased a 50 in TV. It has already stopped working. It was purchased in Dec of 2020.It is a black hole. There is no picture or sound. The repair man came out and said that the panel and other parts were gone! I was totally floored. How can a TV already stop working? I was given a one time repair warranty by Tech support.I was given two repair times one on the 25th and the other on the 28th of March 2022. I called SAMSUNG non customer service and got absolutely nowhere. The one time repair warranty that I was given by SAMSUNG will not be honored.

Very disappointed in the forced Samsung updates‼️😤 Not only they are not usually helpful but make the phone a lot less functional 😖 take away things that worked Change the look of the phone to something we don't ask for and usually don't prefer And even if you call them They have no clue how to help you usually or how to remedy the problem Very unhappy with the Samsung way‼️

To whom it may concern

After using my 50" Samsung UHD Tv for a year and 3 months it stopped working.

It still has a 2 year warrenty.I called the Samsung customer service and received the worst after sales service, you could ever imagine. I logged a complaint at Game Newcastle on a Saturday19 March 2022. The Person assisting me logged a call with samsung customer care. 2 days later 22 MArch 2022, I called samsung for an update and they indicated they have no record of my call log. They then proceeded to log the fault, promising a technician would call back. A further, two days later,24 March 2022, being thursday after numerous calls to the call centre, they established that no call was logged and that they will have to start afresh. They promised a technician would be sent out. after waiting the weekend and upon calling on monday, 28 MArch 2022 the service attendant indicated that the log was cancelled by someone and a new log would be created with a two day waiting period.

This is the most horrific service I have ever encountered.

Nothing has been done to date.

Dear Sir,

Kindly find my disappointment while dealing with Samsung official distributer in Egypt. On 20.02.2022 I've ordered smart phone S22 ultra black color, buds live and silicone cover.

Order number is EG 211130-[protected]. Full amount of payment was charged from my credit card directly after making order in SAMSUNG Egypt online store. Release date was on 11.03.2022.

On 08.03.2022 I've got a phone call from the online store that there is no black color is available. As a comparison of changing colour to white, I was offered to get a screen saver for free. Until today, 27.03.2022, nobody from Samsung online store contacted me about receiving my phone and accessories. Although I contacted them 8 times since released date and couldn't get any information about my order.

At the same time I ordered a charger for expected phone, 45watt, on 12.03.22 and received it on 14.03.22.

The question please, how and when Ican receive my phone and accessories?

Thank you in advance. Your quick respond will be highly appreciated.

Your loyal customer, Ashraf Zaki.

I bought a Samsung wash machine 8/27/21 I’ve had the machine 6 months. My daughter was using it 2/27/22 when the tub started to rock all over the place and a an error started reading. Called Samsung and they tried to calibrate it and it didn’t work. I’ve had the repair man out to my house now going in 5 times. I asked Samsung for a refund and they said the first 3 times didn’t count because the repair man didn’t do anything which was a lie. I can’t have a refund until after this time if they can’t repair it, just awful. I started a new job and had to take time off without pay to have the repair man come out. They are now replacing the tub inside a second time when it’s never been used, but that doesn’t count. Both repair men told me to call Samsung and ask for a refund the machine is junk and I was told by Samsung that they shouldn’t have told me that, this whole situation has been a nightmare so don’t but from Samsung

I order from Samsung directly a bundle deal they had, I follow the direction on the trade-in device, a completed all the questions. One day I get an email stating my device did not pass the inspection because it does not turn on. My device was fine when I mail it, I even added additional bubbles for protection. I receive an email stating if they did not hear back from me the same day they will recycle my device and charge me $425.00. I finally contacted someone from Samsung thru chat, I told them I did not authorize the additional charge was told that as long as I return the device. Two days later get an email that I was charged the $425.00 I contacted again now this time the representative stated that the phone does work and is not sure why it did not pass the inspection for the credit. I informed the representative I never authorized the additional charge as I had initiated a return of the device. It was frustrating no one can help and they just wanted to keep charging me additionally, I feel like is a scam to put you in this predicament.

I purchased a burgundy 512BG S22+ ultra on Feb 21, 2022. My order number is CA220221-[protected]. The order said shipping date starts March 8, now it March 21 but I still never received any email. 2 weeks ago I called Samsung and was told they I will receive the product by March 22 but of course I didn't. It's so hard to get a hold of anyone. This is almost $1700 I paid for a month but didn't receive any product! I even bought Samsung care but since I didn't receive the product, when does my samsung care actually start? It will be a month or more wasted. I have been with Samsung for years and have been a loyal customer until now. I tried the online chat and this is what I got in return "Due to high volume we are unable to assist all customers, please visit www.samsung.com/ca/support for self-serve options or Text us at WE CARE (932 273)."...This is not even called "service" it's just absolutely not acceptable!

About 2 years ago my daughter opened the fridge, one of the door shelf’s fell out of the fridge ( clips on the side snapped ) 2 weeks later my husband opens the fridge and the other one does the same thing! I’ve been calling Samsung about this issue for 2 years and I get the run around, they tell me the product is in stock and text me the link and quickly hang up, I open the link and it says “out of stock”!

Oh and the cheese tray at the top of the fridge the lid for it snapped in my hands when I went to close it! ( I’m by no means hulk and pushing it back in shouldn’t of snapped it! )

On January 29th 2022 we purchased a Samsung Refrigerator at the Home Depot in Sandusky Ohio. It was delivered on February 10th. 6 days later we woke up to water all over our kitchen floor and the refrigerator not working. All of our food we had just spent $300 on was spoiled. We called Samsung where the operator was rude and said “we can troubleshoot but if I send a technician out there and he finds nothing wrong with the refrigerator, you will be responsible for the service fee, if we find something is wrong we will pay the fee”. The repairman came 10 days later and found it to be not repairable and wrote a “ticket” stating the compressor was “bad and felt the refrigerator was reconditioned and is junk”. He said Samsung will try to have it fixed by a three tier technician again and replace the compressor with a used one and it will ultimately go bad in the near future. We called Samsung a minimum of 10 times (we now know you use a third party company and we were not really speaking with someone from Samsung). They told us the compressor part is on back order and they will issue us a reimbursement check due to the part not being in stock. We never received the check nor did they do anything about the $300 worth of food we lost that rotted and spoiled. Angel, a “Samsung operator” texted and emailed and issued a refund receipt (which I will attach with this complaint). We are still without a refrigerator and it has been over 30 days without one. My children and I have been eating out daily and cannot afford to continue to do that. This has gotten very costly and unbearable. What a horrible experience this has been and Samsung has been a horrible business to work with. They took our money and we received a used refrigerator. PLEASE HELP US. WE HAVE NO WHERE ELSE TO TURN. Home Depot said if we didn’t buy the Samsung warranty we could have returned it to them but it’s out of their hands.

For the love of God someone please help me.

Very extremely bad product support and service. My 65" Samsung TV was in warranty and the new replacement part panel had a 4" x 2" bend in the metal frame. The onsite technician said that he could replace the bent part within 48 hours. The day before the scheduled replacement, Samsung texted me with a ridiculous cash offer that was 20% of what I paid. After more than 10 calls to Samsung support, they could not simply repair the TV or offer an equivalent exchange. They claimed the equivalent replacement was not in stock, although Samsung's own website showed inventory. After doing some research, other customers have reported an almost identical bad experience.

Very disappointed with lack of support and being lied to by first and second level customer support. I really think that Samsung does not care.

Hello, My name is Peter Bryant. I have a Samsung refrigerator we bought about 5 years ago at Home Depot. It was doing great until about three months ago. The temperature continues to fluctuate. The fridge has been set at 38 and the freezer on -2 as recommended. It continues to go from 38 to 27 21 and lower regardless of what we do. The bottom of the fridge is continuing to freeze where you place your fruits and vegetables and droplets of water from the back of the inside panel. I have tried resetting numerous times and still everything is freezing in the fridge. The drain evaporator continues to freeze over. I have taken this off and defrosted but it continues. We cannot seem to remedy this problem and need help. I spent 1600 dollars on this refrigerator and looks like I will need to purchase another. It's no longer under warrantee but i have researched these refridgerators and this seems to be a common problem. I would suggest a recall. Please help. My email is [protected]@hotmail.com

3/2/22 - My range (Model:

RF27T5201SR/AA) has a C-F2 error, this error does not allow the oven to work nor the buttons on the range. I've been waiting for nearly 3 weeks or more to get this fixed. 5/13/21 Along with my refrigerator (Model:

RF27T5201SR/AA) ice maker, it is leaking when the ice maker dispenser is used. The contract company is of no help, they continue to reschedule appts. Both are Samsung products and I want both items fixed immediately. Both items were purchased from Best Buy. There is no reason I should have to go through my home warranty, pay a trade call fee when they are still under manufacturers warranty.
