    Just checked...no text or prior notification. Just arrived via DHL.
    No sig required so just put through the letterbox.

    Have a chat with your DHL driver and tell him not to deliver to your neighbour. Tell him if your deliveries are not delivered to your address then you won't be going looking for them and will report them as undelivered.

    ........!


    My claim was validated on 25.10, 52 days ago.


    I emailed their Promotion team last week & got an auto-reply "your email will be responded to within 2 days...." - since then nothing.


    It is a shabby enough promotion to say you have to wait for 45 days for delivery.


    But when they will not even fulfill their own poor commitment - or reply to your email, I don't really know how they can call it a "Promotion" at all.


    This certainly will not encourage me to stick with Samsung - so what was the point ????

    Yeh one would think its a straight forward..but no...even its advertising as free with purchase... i thought it will come with phone....

    I am waiting.... and how long? Samsung only knows....

    Meanwhile google gave me free google nest for being premium youtube user... they send me email about the gift and withtin 24h of me claiming it i have tracking number amd its being shipped.

    Simple isnt?

    Mine arrived today...15 minutes after I emailed them wondering where they were.:rolleyes: That's 52 days from validation.
    No prior notification of shipping or delivery.

    Arrived via GLS this time and required a signature.
    They're silver this time as opposed to white.
    Manufacturing date is 26/10/19 so they're fairly fresh stock.

    Mine finally arrived today - that was 53 days.



    Perhaps my email to them last week was the impetus - even though they didn't bother replying to it. I just cannot understand, when it is a "Promotion" they are offering, why they cannot deliver them promptly and with good grace!



    Mine are silver also.

    Sorry to hear that, have you contacted them on their contact page :- https://20191.samsungpromotions.claims/ie/en/pages/freebuds/contact



    They also seem to have an Irish contact phone no on that page -

    "If you have any problems or questions related to this promotion, our customer service team will be happy to help. By Telephone: 016950642 "

    It is worth a try, they might still come through before Christmas :)


    And is that not a fantastic service on the google nest !!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,286 ✭✭✭Bikerguy


    I am still waiting...i know you all may think it was christmas and holidays etc... but hey i swear i though i will get the buds with phone...its been eternity.... and i am still nowhere near a resolution...i rang them few times... all i get is excuses....

    I am disapointed big time... should have went xiaomi route.... not that thenphone is bad... but without headphones its useless... no dongle ....


    Anyhow...anyone else still waiting???
