Samsung Electronics Singapore has announced details of the exchange and refund options for Galaxy Note7 customers.
More details have been released by Samsung for Galaxy Note7 users in Singapore, covering the refund value for the Note7, trade-in prices to the S7 Edge, as well as refund for original Note7 accessories.
This is in addition to earlier information Samsung Singapore had released earlier.
Update (15 October, 2016):
Following the new order by the U.S. Department of Transportation to ban all Galaxy Note7 devices in carry-on and checked baggage on flights, Samsung Singapore has rolled out plans to help Note7 owners in Singapore who need to board flights out of the country.
Any Galaxy Note7 owner who will be travelling by flight and require a courtesy device can obtain one from the Samsung Customer Service Centre at Westgate or the Samsung Experience Store at Singapore Changi Airport Terminal 3, in both the departure and transit lounges.
Samsung has stopped sales and exchanges of the Galaxy Note7, and has also decided to stop production.
Consumers with either an original Galaxy Note7 or replacement Galaxy Note7 should power down and stop using the device immediately, and take advantage of the exchange and refund options.
This is regardless of whether they had purchased their devices from telecommunication operators, consumer electronics stores, authorised retailers, Samsung Official Store at Lazada.sg or Samsung Experience Stores.
Galaxy Note7 customers can choose to either exchange their device for a Galaxy S7 edge, and receive cash and other benefits which will be confirmed shortly, or to receive a refund.
Details below.
How to go about the Exchange or Refund
Beginning 26 October 2016, Galaxy Note7 customers can visit Samsung’s Note7 exchange website or to select their preference for exchange or refund, and provide their details for a free home delivery.
“We are deeply sorry for the disappointment and frustration the Galaxy Note7 issue may have caused our customers and partners. Our focus now is to reduce further inconvenience to our customers who have trusted and waited for the Galaxy Note7,” said Eugene Goh, Vice President, IT & Mobile, Samsung Electronics Singapore.
The free home delivery is offered whether the Galaxy Note7 customer chooses an exchange or a refund.
Exchange customers can select their preferred colour for the Galaxy S7 edge, subject to availability.
Samsung Concierge customers who opt to exchange will have their Samsung Concierge services transferred to their Galaxy S7 edge and take effect from the date of the exchange.
Samsung Concierge customers who choose to receive a refund for their Galaxy Note7 will receive a refund of $38 for their Samsung Concierge.
Customers will need to provide the following details when logging in to arrange for an exchange or a refund.
- Full name as per bank account

All Galaxy Note7 customers are required to back up their data using Samsung Smart Switch, delete any data or other personal material stored in the device, and reset their device ahead of the home delivery.
Customers will receive a cheque for the amount due to them, depending on their selection of the exchange or refund option, in exchange for the Galaxy Note7 device to be returned.
The company is working out the resolution for Galaxy Note7 customers with Samsung original Galaxy Note7 accessories and details will be announced soon.
