Know what's even cooler? If you already have the phone you can still get one free...

I just did it, I skipped the bank information...the reader is being shipped to me. Not sure what I'll do with it yet...maybe have my friends actually pay to use my keg

Square has never charged for their readers... that's the point.

and sign up for the pay as you go plan, or their minimum monthly rate plan

sweet deal.../
Just wanna give a big thanks on the deal....just upgraded my g2 to the s2 like 3 days ago so went with website....very happy this early in the am.....will see how it works as I have my own energy consulting giddiness..hopefully another usefully tool ...thanks again all who posted.

It's pretty neat. Free, they only charge u like 2.75% per swipe or something like that. Can have the customer sign on the spot and have the receipt emailed/text to them

Didn't know its always been free, just saw that t mobile was giving them away so I posted...

This can be useful. Craigslist or friends saying they don't have cash to pay their share.

They charge $10 so some kid doesn't come in and clear them off the shelf... when you get home and create your account, they issue you a $10 credit to your balance... = free. There is no "minimum monthly" anything, that's the point... its a by swipe percentage and that's all. IV used square since they first started with my business... great!!! They directly deposit right into my bank account. Very very nice.

i just ordered another one for free...cool

awesome device, i just ordered mine!

Thanks for the post. Will be starting my own business soon and this hits the spot dead on.

Just ordered one last night myself. Not sure what I'm going to use it for at the moment but considering I just found out I'm being laid off at the end of the month maybe I can get creative and find some sort of legitimate at home business or something

SiriusXM App

Is really cool.
Thought I would post this here since the inc2 is my current phone. Not sure if it has been discussed yet.
I downloaded the siriusxm app about a month and a half ago. I sign up for the one week free trials alot whenever there is a special broadcast that I want to hear using my emails or a disposable email through 10 minute mail. I have mainly used it on my pc where the trial expires after a week.
Well last time I signed up I did it through the free trial button on the app itself. After 1 week I got a popup that said your trial has expired click here to subscribe. So instead of hitting ok I hit the back arrow to exit the app. I opened the app again and it has been working for almost 2 months now nonstop. I play it all day at work for 8+ hours and I use the same login on multiple devices (droid inc1 and 2, 2 droid eris and an acer iconia a500 tablet) No popups or problems at all.
Just thought Id share.
It not a hack or a mod really just a glitch in the app so I figured it would be cool to share my experience. i have told about 10 people so far who are all really thankful and enjoying it while they can.

Awesome. I love it in my car but didn't want to pay thw extra for the phone. I will have to try.

also does anyone know how the app identifies a user as having used the trial or not? is it by email address, rom, android phone id, phone number, meid? it would be nice to know so that it can easily be modified or spoofed. i already pay for this **** in my car. i dont get why i gotta pay for it again to hear it at home..

I just downloaded the app from the play store
as stated above I use it on multiple devices
2 droid eris phones
1 droid inc
1 droid inc2 and
my acer a500 iconia tab
as well as my netbook and pc
all on the same free trial that I used 10 minute mail for a disposable email address
singed up using my first name and only last initial
it has now been working for over a month and a half after my free trial was suppossed to end on all my devices
I have told lots of people about it and it is the same outcome for them as well.
Just thought I'd share my story.
Although 1 coworker said it worked on her computer and android phone but not on her ipod. HA!!!

Don't mind you discussing the App guys, but please keep any posts detailing the bypass method out of the thread
Cheers.

Got you covered like waffle-house hash browns old mate

well how about this i just downloaded the app and applied for the free trial but it says it already expired and thing is i have never downloaded or used the app till today... so something is being identified incorrectly... is it my email address? imei? phone number?

K. I just downloaded this.I have been wanting to use it on my phone instead of moving my xm radio from my work van to my personal truck.So hopefully this will work out.

Best Buy screwed up

Ok, so I got this phone on release day from BB. Had it for about two weeks and got a small crack in the screen. Took it bad to BB to use the insurance, and they said it should only take like three or four days to send it out and fix it. Needless to say, it didn't. I went round and round with them for three weeks, calling a couple times a week to get the repair status, and they could never tell me anything more than that it was still at the service center waiting on approval. Four days before the 30 day mark, I called the 888-best buy number and complained about it taking so long to fix a cracked screen , they called my local store and talked then in to just replacing it that day (four days early from 30 days). Cool right?
Well, that was almost three weeks ago. Today, my wife gets a call from our local BB (the account is in her name), and send me this email earlier:
"They just called and said your phone cannot be fixed so they want to replace it with a new one!! LMAO.
I said I’m pretty sure he received his new phone already and they said we show that there was no credit given to this account. I said okay well I will
contact my husband and have him call you. They show no record of you getting a new phone or crediting you!!! UNBELIEVABLE."
Should I give it a shot? Then she could have this one without having to use her upgrade! Lol

I hope not. That's what I was wondering too. I'd hate for them to figure out it and try to charge me for the device or something. Then again, it would be after the fact. I'm going to call him tomorrow and see what the deal is. But, if there is no record of it...well....sorry bout your bad luck BB! I guess he asked how she wanted to handle it, so maybe I could have them ship it to the house. Depending on who is working that day, they may recognize me if I went in, and the wife is a terrible liar so she's to scared to go.
Geek squad sent me a $50 gift card they sent me after calling them to complain, so maybe I'll wander through and check it out.

[Q] Anyone refused UPS yet?

What reason do you need to give the driver? Is there a specific process or something?

"I do not want it, take it back"

I'm on the process of this too. I canceled my pre order was given a cancelation number and was promised the phone wouldn't ship. Well low and behold my bank account has been charged and over drafted now since I bought it yesterday in store and the pre order note 3 is on its way to my home right now.... I've instructed everyone at home to not sign anything and to refuse the package. If they leave it at the door I'll take it to ups and return to sender.....gosh what a bunch of crap.

Same here , they said my pre-order was on back order for 10 days and i did the same thing by cancelling it and got the same text yesterday that it shipped. Bunch of morons that work for T-mobile i would have just waited if i knew it was going to ship yesterday

I'm in the same boat. I cancelled my preorder on 10/1 picked the phone up in store 10/2 and received a tracking number this morning.
The tracking number said it would be here by 4:30 which it's now almost 5:30???

Hah I guess this makes me look like a dum dum. I was just looking at the reason codes UPS offered and refusing delivery seemed to deal more with incorrect address, item, etc. Wasn't certain you just refuse something you no longer want.

Haha no problem I use to work for a delivery company lol. If they are all as nice as me, thats all it take

The UPS guy just rang my doorbell and let the phone right there. I was able to catch him before he left and I just told him I was refusing it and it should not have been shipped out.

I did and the ups dude said cool.. question was everyone charged before the order shipped? I wasn't I had I pending. It fell off and never came back.

haha - my thoughts too on this kinda response

Why are you guys not wanting them? I ordered one yesterday with the zero down deal, and it shipped yesterday too. It's scheduled for delivery tomorrow by UPS. You all have me wondering why. Is UPS doing something to the phones? Should I be worried?

Careful some drivers are shady and if you give it back they can say they gave it to you and keep it for themselves to sell. I would personally take it back and have something given to you as proof of the return like a receipt or something to cover your ass.
Sent from my SM-N900T using xda app-developers app

register an ups account and add the tracking to your account. then request the package to be picked up at ups store.
contact tmobile to let them know you refuse the phone. that way it never leaves ups and tmobile can't make **** up since it wasn't even opened/delivered to you.

Why are people cancelling deliveries? lol

I decided I wanted black instead of my white pre-order, and T-Mobile couldn't cancel my pre-order or stop the shipping.

No perks as yet...

I bought the 16gb version from Best buy yesterday. Registered for the perks last night. So far I have not received any email confirmation from Samsung. How long does it take to get the perks?

It took me almost 2 weeks. Others got it within seconds, minutes... In cases where people had to call in (like me) the time varies as well. Some people reported receiving an e-mail within seconds of speaking with a support rep. In my case it took them about 1.5 weeks to 2 weeks to finally get my codes to me.
Give them a call. What will happen is they'll ask you for all the information you used to try and register and then they'll try to register for you. If that doesn't work then they escalate the issue to a person(s) who manually types out the codes for you and e-mails it (which is what takes a long time). This last bit was poorly explained to me and I thought they were giving me the run around (which they probably were at some point).
Give them a call. Worst case scenario it will take a week for the to get back to you. They may keep telling you that it will just take a day or two, but that wasn't the case for me which is why I thought they were screwing with me.

Thanks a lot. I will call them.
Sent from my SM-P600 using xda app-developers app

Not yet
I have called 5 times, each time they tell me they are expediting it, it's been weeks, and I still haven't gotten the email.
On my most recent call, it was explained to me that the product being so new, they did not have all of the serial numbers in the system. So if you registered for your perks and your serial number happened to be in the system, you got your email immediately, otherwise, nothing. Now they seem to be playing catch up, with those who call in having their serial numbers pushed up in the line (I guess).

This drives me nuts. This is exactly what they told me and it's just a scripted line. They need to just say that there has been a systematic issue which has affect some users and that they are having to manually send out codes to people who are affected. I know a scripted bull**** line when I hear one and it only makes me press them more.
When you call them record the calls and make sure that you tell them you are recording the calls (by law you have to tell them you're recording). Light a fire under their asses so that they'll stop feeding you BS and be sincere. There should be a sticky for anyone affect so you guys can all collectively work together to get your perks.
Every time I called back they had my information wrong and they were purposely doing it. I know this because I checked with a rep and we ere damn sure the e-mail was right. The next time I called back I asked for them to give me my info to make sure it was right and it wasn't. Those guys like to play games.
If a sticky gets made and enough people are affected by this I'll post the contact info the person who sent me my codes after I link them to the thread and give them a fair warning that they are about to receive a flood of e-mails from pissed off costumers who their help desk screwed with.

I signed up for mine tonight and was actually quite shocked to get the email within 2 minutes. Wow!
It's not all roses though, I had a hard time getting my perks when I registered a Note 8 a few months ago. Had to go through customer service and I eventually got my codes.

Oh btw, if you're having problems, contact Samsung on their Facebook page. Fastest way to get a response. When I had my problems, it got resolved within a few hours.

Okay so here's the latest. Yesterday when I contacted Samsung I did it in 2 ways. Firstly I contacted them using the live chat on the website. They told me I have to wait 48 hrs. Secondly I contacted them on their Facebook page. They told me I have to wait up to 72 hrs...
Today I contacted them using the live Web chat. They asked how much time has passed since I registered and I told them 64 hrs. Then she started asking for my info.. serial # mac address etc.... After that she told me she escalated it to another department and I should get an email from Samsung in 2 business days... I'm waiting for that now. ?.
Good thing about the Web chat is that I got the transcript.

And it's worth reiterating to check your other folders in Gmail. My perks were in my inbox, but they did not show up in my regular "inbox" view for some reason. They showed up only if I went to the All Mail or Important views (and in both cases they showed it as living in my inbox, but the inbox wouldn't show it). So, check all of your Gmail mailboxes and smart folders before you give up, it's not just "spam or inbox"...

Ok another update...... After waiting 2 business days I contacted them again... they told me that the ticket was filed today and it would take 2 business days.... so now I have to wait until Monday.....
