Galaxy WatchSo I bought my Galaxy Watch 5 at CostCo in September of 2022, where I understood the warranty to be 2 years - 1 year from Samsung and then an additional 1 year arranged by CostCo because they're cool like that.
Well, wouldn't you know it - I've got a couple of issues that I'd like to get resolved - my screen has gone white and the speaker on the phone makes no sound.
So I go to the Samsung site to make a claim and they seem to know that yeah, I'm still under warranty! See the screenshot below:
But when I go to the "File a claim" link, the watch is not listed as one of the items I own. Therefore, I cannot proceed with the claim process. In my communications with the warranty folks, they can't seem to confirm that I do indeed own this watch (despite me supplying them with all the identifying information). And now they've gone radio silent.
CostCo says I need to make all warranty claims through Samsung, despite the extended warranty being through CostCo.
So what do I do? Just write off the purchase of a Samsung product as a bad decision and take my money elsewhere? Or continue to waste time trying to get someone to acknowledge that my watch is still under the warranty period (although I suspect they will find some other way to avoid paying out under the warranty)?
Solved! Go to Solution.

Galaxy Watch@Robin621k , I can't remember, but according to my screenshot above I must have. That said, the warranty site doesn't seem to have a record of it.
That's kind of my first hurdle with these people. If they don't accept that I registered it, my battle is that much more difficult.

Galaxy WatchBut it looks like you can still register your device using a computer by visiting Samsungs website. After you registered the watch you can add a picture of the receipt and submit it for warranty. It's a lot of steps to register and verify warranty which in my opinion should have been easier.

Galaxy WatchThank you all for the replies and suggestions. According to the main Samsung site, the watch is registered and under warranty. When I attempt to re-register, it tells me it's already registered.
The "file a claim" link takes you to another site, however, and that is where the problem lies. That site has no record of my device.

Galaxy WatchWell that's interesting. Now that I've been making noise about this issue, Samsung has removed my watch from my account (as well as an old Galaxy phone that I no longer use). Now when I go to "My Page and Products" it says "You have no registered products."
Good thing I took a screen shot before then.
WHAT IS GOING ON?!
