Jonathan is amazing. maybe the best , quickest and most professional help I've received on a phone call, he is so kind and helps you instantly with any problem you have, he needs a raise as everyone should be like him. Usually I use chat support for my problems when I need something. I avoid calls as usually get only nasty people who hate their job and won't be helpful at all
Give Jonathan a raise. he is amazing and makes samsung's image great

So difficult to change your payment details..no way to do it. No requested call back, Trying to pay one lot of missed payments due to new bank account, get an ERROR message. Messaged them twice, so far no response.

Idiots!
Rejected for credit I could easily budget for despite holding an unblemished credit history and high credit score.
Bought multiple Samsung products in the past but won’t touch them again if my money is not good enough for them.
Idiots!

I am a mushroom – I must be because having tried to interact with this incredulous and ignorant company, who are intrinsically linked to the equally incredulous Samsung Electronics (UK) Limited (whom I have reported on Trustpilot in similar terms already) I am left in the dark!
I submitted an S74 formal complaint to this indignant, back-street operation on the 06th August 2024, sent no less than 6 emails requesting their involvement – absolutely nothing by means of response (other than to buck-pass the issue back to Samsung Electronics)!? Meanwhile they continue to hound you with intimidatory text messages, emails, telephone call and debt collection letters chasing payments for an item (Tumble Dryer) supplied directly by their parent company which is rendered unusable and a fire hazard for which their third-party (Samsung don’t employ their own service staff) repairers are unable to fix?
In conclusion (and as noted by the majority of the 000’s* of unhappy reviews posted on this and many other review sites) - AVOID this inhouse funder and SAMSUNG* in general like a plague. Customer service is non-existent!
In closing, at the point of writing, Trustpilot score was a mere 1.8* but I would contest this as overly generous when you can’t leave a zero-star review. The reality is that had this been an option for all reviewers, the rating would be significantly lower which in it self, speaks absolute volumes.

I recieved an email on 30 August 2024 to manage my agreement as it is coming to an end. It says I can only do this via the flex lounge. Every time I attempt to login, it says ‘we’re experiencing technical issues try again later’ - later never comes. I spoke with agents via live chat who said they don’t know why this isn’t working and I would need to call customer service. Every time I call customer service, they ask for my name and say ‘oh Andreas what a lovely name’ and then end my call. This is not just a one time occurrence, this has happened five times. Your overseas contact centres are, to put it bluntly, sh**. I spoke to the finance team on several occasions and was directed to call the flex team, to which they transferred me once and gave me the number three different times. The team who answer the phone say they are a third party who work on behalf of Samsung, they are a recycling centre and do not deal with Samsung queries. They told me they have escalated this matter as they receive numerous calls regarding this and many customers are being directed to them incorrectly. I then spoke with Samsung UK who said they cannot help me and I would need to go to their sales team, which are the overseas team again, but the gent assured me he would speak on my behalf and then transfer the call to ensure they do not disconnect me again. The agent I spoke with informed the Flex program had ended which is why I could not login. I had already researched this and was well aware. However, I recieved an invitation to manage my agreement only days ago, and the email specifically says I can only manage this agreement via the flex lounge. Meaning I currently have no way to explore my options. The advisor said she would escalate this issue and following my call she would email me immediately with a case reference number and with a resolution within 24 hours. Surprise surprise, neither emails have been sent. I have given numerous agents advance warning that I have been recording to evidence the complete inadequacy of your advisors who repeatedly misdirect me, lie to me and end our calls with out as much as taking my information. I have repeatedly requested SAR’s from all teams but I am not holding my breath. I have been told that certain teams will not have access to all the information I require and I would need to speak directly with each team. Please be advised, it is NOT my responsibility to chase each department, as a complaints team I expect you to be familiar with multifaceted complaints and conduct your own investigations as each department work for the same company. I am done with chasing and once my final payment is due, I will NOT be providing a balloon payment and I will not be returning this device as I have tried my best to resolve this issue and acted in accordance with your terms and conditions. If your teams are incapable of resolving this issue, I will NOT be held accountable. This is not my issue, this is yours. I will be seeking legal representation, advice from trading standards and the financial ombudsman as your teams are failing to assist. Please be warned if this issue is not resolved sooner than my final payment is due, action will be taken.

Hey there,
So, I've been having this annoying issue with my account. I always pay my bills on time, sometimes even early, but I recently got a call from a debt collector saying I missed a payment and owe late fees.
Turns out, I missed a measly $36 payment, which was my last one. And guess what? They didn't even bother to send me an email or a letter to let me know about it. So, late fees started piling up, even though I paid the amount and the fees as soon as I found out.
I tried talking to the credit protection department, but they're not being very helpful. I'm worried about how this will affect my credit score. I wish I could screen shot these compliants and send them to Credit Protection.

I bought a phone using Samsung finances.
I didn't receive the information (account, statements) to make payments
Now I owe 143 USD more for the late payment fees.
TDRCS (TD retail card services) says Samsung must have provided me with enough information to create my online account and make the payments.
I told them that Samsung sells products they, Samsung Financing, are responsible for payment info, including the information to do it.
Really bad experience.

Samsung finance ( Glow) Treating customers unfairly, poor customer service, website not working, destroy your credit records, unreachable phones, representative with bad attitude, never ever buy Samsung products again, that's my promise.

Samsung does not send notification emails of payment due dates or other events. Then claims they do without proof. All of this is so they can bill 40$ for late payment. This way they don't need to charge interest they can destroy your credit. Do not use.

Customer service, does not have any procedure to notify the customer, non-payment, only on monthly account statement, damaged my credit 98 points down, for a virtual card, I did not have any, email, message, call, signs of smoke, that my non-payment was past date, due to my auto payment being overdue... terrible customer notification service... total disappointment

Just the rating it deserves. Bad password change validations on website. Will take any password but wont log you in. So round robin password reset process. Cannot find record but no clue that you got to register first to be found. Debit card payments identified as Credit card payments and denied. Only call back service available. In the era where no one trusts call backs this is not reliable. Samsung as usual puts in place the system and does user testing on customers then take ages to iron things out leaving customer experience at low end as usual. Just reminds me of how the online ordering system and errors were a year back.
