There is another link sent by Samsung to Tech Patrol News, this time they showed us the updated guidelines on how to proceed with the Galaxy Note7 exchange and refund program.
Here’s what it says.
Samsung is committed to ensuring that consumers have the highest quality devices in their hands. To ensure consumer safety, we are advising users of Galaxy Note7 to power down their phones, both original and replacement units, and contact their place of purchase to exchange to a Galaxy S7 edge or request for a full refund.
For devices purchased through Globe and Smart, owners should contact their telco operators. Globe subscribers may call the hotline numbers: 7301000 for landline and 211 for mobile. Smart subscribers may visit the Smart Store where they got their device; if purchased online, they may also visit the Smart Store.
For those who bought from Lazada, owners should contact them directly.
