Hey everyone!!
Once again its the time of the year that Samsung announces their new Note line up. I am happy to announce that Samsung this afternoon announced the Samsung Galaxy Note 7!. The device seem to have amazing specs! Including memory SD card slot, water resistant and most of all, curved screens on both side for the Note Series and Iris scanner!
1). Once Rogers has announce when they will add the Samsung Galaxy Note 7 to the reservation list & the day comes, sign into your My Rogers account - Product & Services – Wireless & you will see a Red wording saying “Device Reservation" on the main page. Click that & it will take you to the page. Once there you will need to pick which device you want; Samsung Note 7 Black and what other colors they may release it on. You also need to pick the store you want it to go too. Just to make it clear, reservations are for current Rogers wireless customers which have contracts with them. Rogers will put up the Pre order list for people that want to pre order the phone which have no wireless accounts with Rogers. Also just too add below is the meaning of the statues .
- If your status is "OPEN", your reservation has been made and we are awaiting product from our supplier. At this time you can change your pick-up location, contact email address or cancel your reservation.
- If your status is "CANCELLED", your reservation has been cancelled and your reservation fee will be credited back to your account.
- If your status is "IN PROGRESS", we have begun the shipment process and you will not be able to edit or cancel your reservation any longer. The next email you will get will be the one that confirms shipment to the store you chose.
- If your status is "SHIPPED", your device has left our warehouse and is on its way to the store you chose. Keep in mind that you can NOT reserve a device via calling them. It can ONLY happen if the reservation system is down but they will to reserve it via online. Plus if you reserve it via phone, you will NOT see your status or know what number you are VS reserving it online.
2). Please keep in mind that if you pick a Rogers Authorized dealership, you may not be able to get the device soon after it ships. This has been the main issue with all the iPhone reservations & most of the other devices which have been on the reservation system. I would suggest you pick a Local Rogers store (Corporate Rogers store or Rogers Plus) to go to get it. When the Rogers warehouse sends it out, the Rogers stores will get them first. Some of the Rogers Authorized dealers have their own warehouse in which the devices will go to. After that there is no tracking until the device ships from that warehouse & goes to the store & they call you. You can also look for your FlexTab aka upgrade fee online via My Rogers or contact Rogers & they will let you know.
3). Also remember you are going to have to put down a $40 fee to reserve the device. Once it ships out, the $40 fee will be reversed back into your account. IF you want to cancel your reservation, that $40 will also be credit back to you. So either way you will get that $40 back. Also remember you may NOT be the first to get the phone if you have a high number or a low one. The Reservation system is made to have a device reserved for you as the stores will be sold out. If your reservation status still says “ OPEN” after launch & a store has a device in stock, you can still go in the store & get it. Then come back home & cancel the reservation online. If the status is “ IN PROGRESS” & you get a device via a store that have one for u, you have to wait until it ships out & then tell the store that u picked u do not want it. Do reemember the reservation number is CANADA - WIDE. This means if lets say you are #45 in line for the black one, you are #45 for that GB , color & model Canada wide. Also keep in mine you have to be the account holder in order to pick up the device at the store. No one else can. You can try adding a family member as Level on the account but some stores will decline it.
For frequently asked questions about the Rogers Reservation System, please click here Rogers Reservation FAQ
4) .For Corporate / Business customers. You guys will have a different line then regular customers do. This means you guys have a few different statutes then regular customers do. Also keep in mind for the past few years there has been issues / confusen about business customers getting the phones via the reservation. You guys will be getting them the day of launch or after depending on your status & what goes on.
Let's make this thread the only thread for the devices please and if you guys have any questions, don't hesitate to ask me and I'll gladly be able to help:)

One of the new ( replacement ) Note 7's has apparently exploded less than 24 hrs after receiving it. The customer is in China and the phone is being analyzed to determine the cause. A Samsung rep showed up at the guys house and wanted to take the phone but the guy didn't trust him so it's being evaluated by an independent 3rd party.

I advised of a "reported incident" and further commented that the outcome was not yet determined since it's being analayzed by a 3rd party for cause. Where did I draw any conclusion or represent that what's been reported if now fact ??
Are we a tad sensitive ?

I agree, could just be someone looking for $ or a bone to pick with Samsung. I haven't expressed my opinion yet, just advised of the incident. Looking forward to the 3rd party analysis.....

I think Samsung has done enough to themselves, and many of us on here, to deserve any negative feelings people may have. My opinion.
That's the purpose of this thread, to report on issues / incidents involving the Note 7. That's why people engage in these forums, to learn and acquire information.
The China incident in particular has been picked up by main stream media, not just tech sites so it is something to watch. Whether it's factual or not will be determined by a 3rd party investigation, which is ongoing. To me, this particular incident is news worthy and worth informing others to keep an eye on. You don't have to if you don't want to, your choice as always.

Hello @germain18_2006
Return box? Lmfao I never got that. I only got the box the replacement was in with its box and that was it.
You might need too. Call and see. Some have dropped off the device like that or shipped it I'm another box
LOL...Yes, I do got a box for return. I Just read the instrustion and seems like only the phone, no need to return the box as only the phone can fit in the bubble bag they'd provided. 😄

Maybe should test out the phone before I send this one in. The box u got Germain is just a return shipping box seems there's no drop off centre in Alberta its easy for me though just have to call ups to pick it up
I will test out the new phone at least for few weeks before surrender the old one.
I will for sure just call them to come and pick it up from my house.:D
And there is no drop off center info included so I assumed using the return box is the only way for me in Toronto,Ontario.
