Why is it that Samsung Philippines is being unfair to majority of their loyal customers by offering more freebies only through online pre-order while those who have pre-ordered only through their local store got nothing more than a memory upgrade and a watch5 discount.

In my case, i opted to pre order through the local samsung store in our area because I can't trade in my old samsung galaxy online since that samsung.ph website does not support trade in our area.

Since that i pre order through their store I will only get a memory upgrade and a 30% less in samsung watch5. While those who have ordered online will get a free case, a free galaxy watch 5, and a 3k e-voucher.

Terrible and discriminating promotions Samsung Philippines!

Yes. And they just requested it to be expedite. I received that estimated delivery as a response to my request according to the cs. So they requested it again. Until now, the status is processing. I ordered mine feb 4 due to voucher issues. Hope they can be considerate enough

That's weird all preordered got shipped really quick and the longest wait that I'm seeing is 3 business days via LBC within metro.

I hope you can receive yours earlier than than their turn around time provided.

This is the same reason I pre-ordered in store but seeing all the freebies and the early deliveries for online orders feel really unfair!

Hello AiBun,

We are sorry to hear about your unpleasant feelings about what you perceived as unfair promotions and different freebies given away by Samsung while pre-ordering the Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra, and we apologize for the inconvenience it caused you.

As you may already know, due to supply and demand, wrapped together with the marketing strategies of each promoter, seller, and dealer not only here but all around the world, they are purposely creating this feature in order to entice loyal and prospective buyers to order the new products.

Freebies are something that is given to you without you having to pay for it, especially as a way of attracting your interest. 

When it comes to the free Samsung Watch, it was given as a limited gift to those who attended a live Samsung Epic Nights online, while the free case was given out free to those who successfully checked out their pre-ordered online purchase, and the 3,000 pesos worth of free e-voucher was sent to their respective email addresses for those who earlier registered for Samsung Galaxy Unpacked 2023. 

We are hoping we are able to clarify that the promotions may vary from order to order to further promote the new Samsung Galaxy series and that they are not connected in any way, shape, or form to treat you unfairly or discriminate against anyone.

We really appreciate the time and effort you put in to share your valuable comments and suggestions that may be well incorporated into future promotions.

But I also got the 3000 voucher because I also registered for the unpacked event. Why I can't use it when pre-ordering through the samsung store?
