The message is this: if you&#8217;ve got an original Note 7 or a replacement Note 7, turn it off now and return it \u2014 either to Samsung or to the store you bought it from. You can find more details on this process on Samsung&#8217;s site.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\">However, while in previous statements Samsung has described the recall of the Note 7 without using the word recall, that&#8217;s not the case today. The company makes clear it&#8217;s now acting in coordination with the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) \u2014 the US agency that manages recalls. When the recall of the original Note 7 began in last month, Samsung was criticized for not properly informing the CPSC. It&#8217;s obviously keen to correct that.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;\">\u201cWe appreciate the patience of our consumers, carrier and retail partners for carrying the burden during these challenging times,\u201d said Samsung&#8217;s US president and chief operating officer, Tim Baxter, in a press statement. \u201cWe are committed to doing everything we can to make this right.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 8pt;\">Source:-\u00a0http:\/\/www.theverge.com\/2016\/10\/13\/13267674\/samsung-note-7-refund-exchange-official<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"fb-background-color\">\n\t\t\t  <div \n\t\t\t  \tclass = \"fb-comments\" \n\t\t\t  \tdata-href = \"https:\/\/www.biphoo.com\/bipnews\/technology\/mobile\/samsung-is-offering-note-7-owners-up-to-100-credit-to-return-their-phones.html\"\n\t\t\t  \tdata-numposts = \"10\"\n\t\t\t  \tdata-lazy = \"true\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-colorscheme = \"light\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-order-by = \"social\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-mobile=true>\n\t\t\t  <\/div><\/div>\n\t\t  <style>\n\t\t    .fb-background-color {\n\t\t\t\tbackground: #ffffff !important;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t.fb_iframe_widget_fluid_desktop iframe {\n\t\t\t    width: 630px !important;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t  <\/style>\n\t\t  ","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Samsung is offering Note 7 owners up to $100 credit to return their phones Samsung is offering Note 7 owners up to $100 credit to return their phones:-The Galaxy Note 7 is officially dead but Samsung is still dealing with the fallout.
