Is anyone having problems with Samsung pass on the new galaxy s21?

Turn off you wifi and use the mobile network for your initial use. There is a bug in a number of Samsung apps which will not initially work with wifi.

Once you use it once you can turn wifi back on and it will work from then on.

does not work i just factory reset my device, didn't add my wifi and still the same issue. If I create a new samsung account I can use that account to log in fine but I can't use my old account. That makes 0 sense

@Crb88

Sorry, it worked for me and a few others so your issue must be different. Hopefully someone with more smarts than me can help you out.

I finally got it to go through by turning off Wi-Fi but it took a few tries. try reseting your phone make sure wifi is off

Clearly this isn't solved yet. I even signed out my S8.

Same issue

Tried:

-clearing cache and data

-uninstalliing updates

-factory reset

-no wifi

-signing out of old phone,which now my old phone is showing the same error

-resetting network settings

Chatted with tech support. Couldn't fix it. Escalated to "Samsung Pro". Couldn't fix it. My next step is to call tech support.

I've tried all the usual recommended tricks and can't get it to work either. Even tried verifying by email but it times out so fast I can't even click the link in the email before it's failed.

I was FINALLY able to get it to work! I did have to turn my WiFi off, clear my cache, and just persistently try to connect but after a bit it did connect. Now I'm having zero issues with Samsung Pass.

Keep trying but no joy. It just won't work. Samsung chat support just told me to call customer services but after 15 minutes on hold to them I gave up waiting.

Somehow it worked today, only thing I did differently is I switched network mode to 2g/3g only.

Long story short, 4g is over congested and hardly works in the town centre where I live but if I switch to 2g/3g things work better, provided I don't need to do any large downloads.

So I was in town and switched mode like I usually do. Suddenly it worked on the first try. I was using data connection rather than any free WiFi.

Didn't do anything else differently. Didn't even clear cache or data or force close before trying it.
