    ******* Complaint: ************ **** I am rejecting this response because:

    I have never seen a RA of any kind.

    and why is this washer still broken and sitting in my carport for almost that year.

    and no mention of a refund or an exchange has been in my possession.

    if it was sent to me in any way shape or form I have not received it.

    common sense dictates that it is still broken, still not repaired and I have never been contacted by anyone at samsung about this.

    samsung washer broken twice in the first 2 months of owning it.

    so tell me, who is responsible for a samsung washer that's been broken twice and ive been ignored by samsung for a year.

    no repair, no refund, no exchange.

    this is 100% a samsung mistake, please rectify this asap.

    who shall the consumer blame when the consumer is the only one affected financially by 2 parties(*************) says not either fault.

    I blame? everything is a samsung issue no matter where I bought my machine.

    Sincerely,

    100% unsatisfied customer.................**** *** *****

    We wanted to get an induction range, but didn’t want to replace all our pots and pans. We learned that Samsung had a promotion, which was stated as “Purchase any Induction Range or any Induction Cooktop from January 1st, 2023 to December 31st, 2023 and receive a BONUS 5pc Cookware set valued at $449 (Regular Price).” The brand is *********. So, we bought the range, and we applied for the promotion on May 10, 2023 through the Samsung website. Since then, the status has always read “pending”. We have followed up with customer support many times since then. The response is always the same: “We have escalated your request and you will hear from the support team with more details within 3 days.”. We never receive an email. Once, when we pressed the customer service rep to tell us what was going on, they claimed they were “out of stock, but will let us know when they are back in stock.” The cookware in question is certainly available, if I go to stores or http://*********.ca – they have them in stock. So, I have come to the conclusion that Samsung never intends to honour their promotion, isn’t willing to purchase the cookware it promised, and it was a **** to get people to commit to a new Samsung range or cooktop. It’s shocking that a large and trusted brand like Samsung would do this. We’ve been making do with the few pots and pans we have that work with the cooktop – in the hope that this will be honoured. But it’s been 5 months. Ridiculous, and a waste of our time for all the following up.

    Hi,

    Please accept our sincere apologies for the inconvenience you may have experienced. 

    Our specialist had followed up with the promotion provider who confirmed that it is approved and waiting to ship.

    They will ship as soon as they receive more cookware in stock.

    Complaint: ********

    This statement is unacceptable: "Our specialist had followed up with the promotion provider who confirmed that it is approved and waiting to ship. They will ship as soon as they receive more cookware in stock."

    Samsung is the promotion provider, and my complaint is with Samsung – who promised us the promotion if we purchased their range. I don't know anything about your 'promotion provider', and they aren't relevant. You've already had 5 months to honour the deal. If you actually cared about it, you would have obtained the cookware (which is readily available from the manufacturer) and sent it to me by now. This response doesn't say anything about a timeframe. And the wording 'waiting to ship' is deliberately misleading if you don't have it in stock.

    How about this: Before you offer a promotion, you actually ensure you have the products required to fulfill it?

    I am rejecting this response because: "We will keep you posted once we receive any updates" is not an assurance for resolving the matter. I am hopeful I will receive the cookware, at which point I will mark the issue as resolved. So, will wait and see at this point. If I don't receive the cookware by November 24, I will take further action.

    Better Business Bureau:

    In reference to complaint ID ********: we managed to resolve this through several calls directly with Samsung Canada. They have shipped the cookware, and we received it today. However, I should point out that it seems it's only because of our calls and asking it to be escalated – it was very helpful to find the correct phone number to call listed on BBB's website.

    Back in September, I sent in my device for a trade in offer, after 3 weeks, they finally came back saying the price is adjusted due to a small issue. So, I declined the the new adjusted offer and was shown (********) that my original device will be returned after 10 business days. Now it's pass 15 business days and I still have not received any email or updates whether my device will be returning to me. Worse, Samsung Canada is asking for the trade in value payment **********) now. So, I'm paying for the trade in value amount without my original device back. I have escalated to Samsung Canada support many times (live chat and call) and everyone told me to wait. Really upset at how their Team is handling this claim.

    Complaint against Samsung Canada Date of Purchase: Oct 09, 2023 I purchased the Galaxy Z Fold 5 from Samsung Canada during their Thanksgiving sale on Oct 09, 2023, for CAD $1764. At the time of purchase, the official website advertised a free Galaxy Watch6 Bespoke and band with the phone. This was also confirmed on the invoice I received (****** *** *** ******** ******** *** *********). However, when I checked the shipping list, it only mentioned the phone and the watch band. In the end, I only received the phone and the band, with the Galaxy Watch6 Bespoke missing. On Oct 11, 2023, I promptly contacted Samsung's customer service to notify them of the oversight and requested that the missing watch be shipped to me. On Oct 16, 2023, their customer service replied, stating that they would get back to me within a week. A week passed, and I did not hear back from them. Consequently, on Oct 23, 2023, I reached out once again through email. As of now, I have yet to receive any response from Samsung Canada regarding the matter (****** *** *** ******** ***** ************** *** *********).

    I bought the dishwasher last boxing day. The dishwasher stops washing during the wash cycle. I had 2 technician visits sent by Samsung and they both couldn’t resolve the issue reporting that it needs a replacement. Samsung gave me 2 to 3 business days to give me an answer. It’s been 2 weeks and no answer yet. I’ve contacted them twice with no update yet.

    We bought an expensive big screen Samsung TV, 82 inch through ******. Samsung used to be a reliable brand and so we went with them for this large purchase. The TV died within 26 months of purchase. Samsung provides a 1 year warranty, ****** gave us an additional 1 year totalling 24 months (2 years). What a wonderful coincidence that the TV died at 26 months just when it's out of warranty. Samsung will not do anything about the TV and they sent us to a 3rd party provider to get it fixed. Large appliances / equipment like this should have an average working lifetime and should not die in less than 5 years at least. In the past I have had 2 Samsung refrigerators and 1 Samsung microwave die like this just outside the warranty period. So we refrained from buying Samsung appliances altogether. Samsung monitors and TVs used to be very reliable, my other Samsung TV is 12 years old and it's still running fine. I* ****** **** ** ***** **** ******* ** ******* * **** **** ***** ********** *** ** ******* ***** ****** ** ******. They already had a class action about their refrigerators. I want Samsung to take responsibility for this product and fix or replace our TV. It's an outright scam by big corporations if a $3000 TV dies within 26 months.

    Hi,

    Please accept our sincere apologies for the inconvenience you may have experienced. 

    Please be advised that Samsung's warranty only covers one year for parts and labor from date of purchase.
    Since your unit is out of Samsung's warranty we would like to invite you to contact an authorized service center by Samsung if you wish to proceed with repair at your own expense or refer to the place of purchase if your unit is under extended warranty.

    We deeply value your loyalty to Samsung and are committed to providing you with the highest level of service simply because our customers deserve the very best. If you have any further questions or comments regarding this matter, please feel free to discuss it with us at 1800samsung.

    I am rejecting this response because:

    Are Samsung products expected to die after the warranty period?! If so, it should be highlighted in ALL YOUR MARKETING!

    I had 2 samsung refrigerators, 1 samsung microwave die on us just months after the warranty period. I have stopped buying Samsung appliances altogether, we thought the TVs will be better. I have an old Samsung TV that is still running strong after 12 years.

    The quality of Samsung products have become GARBAGE in the past 5 years.

    If a $3000 TV dies within 26 months of purchase there's something seriously wrong with your company.

    You guys are looking at another class action soon if you don't support your customers.

    I am a CEO of a tech company, you can google me. I will not let this pass! You guys need to support your clients better or stop doing business in Canada!

    I am going to contact my lawyer next to do a discovery and collect data to see how many other people like me have had their Samsung products die right after the warranty period.

    I purchased a Samsung Microwave along with the extended warranty. My microwave stopped working, the tech online at Samsung told me it was the magnetron in which I still have warranty for. He requested I contact ******** ********* (the only store in my city who works on Samsung Microwaves) and have a tech send in a report saying what it is at my expense. I contact this business in which they inform me that they haven't worked on Samsung microwaves in over 3 years. I report this to Samsung live chats x3, and 2 separate managers...they all repeat the information that I have to have a report before they can send this part. I stated that I cannot get anyone to send a report because no one in town will come look at it (I called others as well to check) let alone once I have the part, who will install it?? They give me a number to **** (whom bought out ***** as to where I purchased the microwave) and asked me to check with them about my warranty ( I left 2 messages there with no return at all) I explain this to them and they just do not email or call me back. Low and behold, we built our kitchen cupboards around this microwave so I had to purchase the same one again!! ( I have young kids and after 3 weeks of discussion with them needed to purchase a new one)...when I checked out they ask me if I want extended warranty on it! I sent Samsung an email stating that its fraud to continue to do this in my small city with no repair shops...and asked continually if they could do something to compensate me having to buy new...they ghosted me and have not responded in over 2 weeks. So I have proof of warranty, and the receipt for a microwave that cannot be fixed as promised under the extended warranty I purchased.

    Hello Mrs ********, 

    Thank you for reaching out to us.

    The warranty on the unit for the magnatron is 5 years parts only.

    To be able to honor this warranty, we would need a technicians report showing that it is the magnatron that is the issue.  We would ask that you submit a paid invoice for the repair, and we would reimburse you for the part only.

    We looking forward to hearing from you, 

    Thank you, 

    Samsung Canada

    Complaint: ********

    I am rejecting this response because: they have replied with the same response that they had within the 2.5 weeks of my chats with them. The only repair shop they recommend - ******** ********* - NO LONGER SERVICES SAMSUNG MICROWAVES AND HAVEN'T SINCE BEFORE THE PANDEMIC. I have called around to other service repair shops and have also been told they no longer service microwaves. I have mentioned this to Samsung many times. With no one to service my microwave how is the resolution they keep telling me solve my problem?? I literally cannot do what they are asking me. It's not possible for me in my city, so another option will be needed. 

    Sincerely,

    1) Agent contacted via email after 48hrs of this message, still asking time to resolve the missing item Free Watch 6 Classic offer on one of my order.  2) The missing $100 discount code for $400+ order is not usable, agent sent a non working code, does not work on regular Samsung Canada site nor does it work on ***/Student site or **********.

    -Dishwasher arrived and the installer said it was missing a piece. There is a large gap showing the screws at the top of the dishwasher which the installer said needed a plate to cover. I called Samsung to get the replacement part. The first person I spoke to I could not hear and he said he would call me back - never did. I called back again and spoke to someone who again was hard to hear and I asked over and over if he was using a headset. I explained the situation and provided my phone number multiple times. He told me that they can only issue replacement parts 2 days after the order was received. The order was received and the company that delivered it had to setup an installer which was not available for 2 weeks after delivery! After arguing with the person on that piece alone and asking to speak to a manager they put me on hold and then only after that was interested in the details of the part. I send him pictures and explained the issue and then he said that there was no part missing. But it looks awful AND the installer said the part was missing as he installs these particular washers all the time. I asked over and over again to speak to a manager and he would not connect me with one. In the end my issue is not resolved and I am extremely upset with the customer service I received and the fact that my problem is still not resolved!

    Hello Mrs ********, 

    The pictures were reviewed by our tech support, this unit is not properly installed.  First the locked down clips should be under the counter, and not in front. To make the dishwasher meet with the counter, the legs of the dishwasher need to be lowered to raise the body of the dishwasher so taht the brackets will reach the counter.

If Samsung is Adamant that it’s an installer issue they should reach out to **** ***** to let them know and then **** ***** can reach out to me. When I reach out to **** ***** they tell me it’s a Samsung issue. Someone needs to take responsibility if this and it shouldn’t be me. I do not accept this as a resolution
