My unit from Courts which I received on 18 Aug, I only received SMS warranty notice starting from 28 Aug on 28 Aug

Hi mydragoon,

Can you guide me for self registration.  I wanted to buy the extended warranty from SC but they mention that my telco need to register the phone first and need receipt from telco. 

thanks

Samsung is committed to producing the highest quality products and we take every incident report from our valued customers very seriously.

In response to recently reported cases of the new Galaxy Note7, we conducted a thorough investigation and found a battery cell issue. To date (as of September 1) there have been 35 cases that have been reported globally and we are currently conducting a thorough inspection with our suppliers to identify possible affected batteries in the market. However, because our customers’ safety is an absolute priority at Samsung, we have stopped sales of the Galaxy Note7. For customers who already have Galaxy Note7 devices, we will voluntarily replace their current device with a new one over the coming weeks.

We are working with our carrier partners to announce the details of the U.S. product exchange program as soon as today.

We acknowledge the inconvenience this may cause in the market but this is to ensure that Samsung continues to deliver the highest quality products to our customers. We are working closely with our partners to ensure the replacement experience is as convenient and efficient as possible.

i think this one is quite comprehensive... can maybe TS sengkin95 pin this?

Samsung Galaxy Note 7 recall: Everything you need to know
http://www.androidcentral.com/samsung-galaxy-note-7-recall

the page is still "evolving" with more info added...

from that article, it does seem that Samsung is recalling ALL phones...
We need to understand that even though Samsung is recalling every phone it has sold that doesn't mean that every phone is at risk of having a battery failure.

What about those who bought the warranty extension and screen crack warranty?

I was about to ask this...
I burned my money on that as well...

I think so. Well, thinking from the bright side, this will be the biggest publicity stunt that Samsung ever put on in history.

Will Samsung Mobile Malaysia call their Note 7 customer like how car company call their customer when they issue a recall?
Or should i just walk in to Samsung Service Centre and ask for exchange?

This is very embarassing moment for samsung. The "fruit" will lol hard at them.

Hope they learn the lesson.

ghosh, how about the screen protector that is bought from samsung store, will they also replace it if the unit is recall???

setup new phone really pain in ass.. i went thru twice dy...

What will they do with the recalled sets? Refurbished and sells during 3rd and 4th batch? Haha

#sehatisejiwa  now just wish they properly make this new ones with zero issues.

aih, this matter reminds me of my phone i kena b4,
note4 - fast charge adapter problem need change
htc one m7 - purple tint camera need change
iphone 4 - home button and antennagate nothing can be done

if samsung offer you guys refund or replace, what you guys will choose?

What kind of compensation you would expect? Even Honda didn't compensate for takata airbag recall. They just replaced. That's car.

Although my unit currently are still working just fine. Im gonna torture this baby submerge into pool or sea next week. Haha then change to new phone.

Well, they are big company and the news are out for the world to read. It will a wrong move if they don't recall. Why globally and not random batch? I don't think they know where are those batches of consumers are, and instead of spending more time on investigation and waiting for next one to happen, it is better to recall all and going through one by one in manufacturing line or lab. Global recall with one to one exchange is a wise move, giving consumers the confidence and trust towards Samsung.  If not just imagine what the sales going to be like for the next flag ship.
