Now not just the Notes...

they are giving me $75 because I already got $25 from the first swap, but they are also reimbursing the activation costs of both phones, all the taxes for both phones, and reimbursing me for the cost of the case I purchased.

 

Nice of them since Samsung is footing the costs. If you bought on a "time basis" they should have credited any payments back also..

On another note - The FAA issued this.

I’ve got an upcoming flight; will I be allowed to take my Note7 on the plane with me?

No. As of 12:00pm EDT on October, 15, 2016, you will not be allowed to take your Galaxy Note7 on any flights. This includes both carry on and checked luggage. We ask that you abide by any guidance from the FAA and refer to the FAA website for more information. Because your safety is important to us, if you own a Galaxy Note7 we ask that you power it down and exchange your Galaxy Note7 for another Samsung smartphone or receive a refund, plus added incentives. If you bought your Galaxy Note7 from Samsung.com or have questions, please call 1-844-365-6197

 

they did that as well

 

Good.. Hate to give up the Note, but they are coming down hard on this 2nd recall.

 

I already miss my note...the s7 edge is nice, but it's not the note

 

I dread having to set up another phone again so soon... I use Mobile2Go, but still have to go thru the settings, and set the apps up again...

 

if you go with another Samsung all your apps, contacts, settings, calls, texts will all transfer over via the smart switch cable

 

I saw that briefly on the Samsung site, but forgot about it... thanks for reminding me about it...

 

takes about an hour. another portion you have is backing up your phone to your Samsung account, then once your phone is activated you can just download everything over WiFi once home

 

I will be getting mine delivered to my house. Verizon suggests ordering online for this switch as some of the stores are slightly less than clueless. So I have two weeks to make the magic happen.
