Successful Credit Card Dispute on Uncovered Repair!
So I successfully disputed Samsung's repair charge with my credit card! Resolved in my favor, saved $350.
I had texted Samsung support and we went back and forth about the damage. I requested pictures and they gave me one which was of the top of the screen. I requested more and the damaged parts and they refused. When I got the phone back the repair was listed as hinge replacement, not screen.
My advice:
screenshot every step in the process. My phone was approved for free repair, then denied due to the phone not powering on, then I was told there was screen damage, and finally hinge.
Request pictures of your damage and get support to say specifically what the damage is.
Request your damaged parts back.
