I was dubious at first but the link takes you to the Samsung website where you can register. If successful you get an email almost instantly. The greatest joy is the free movies!!

I registered and got nothing. The web site has no reference to the promotion and a search on “entertainment package” shows zilch. Have they withdrawn it?

  What do you mean? Did you try http://www.samsung.com/uk/galaxytab/ ? Click promotion..complete the data..wait and you get an email quite fast. That’s if you bought the tablet from UK.

  Hey.
  
  Samsung Games url : http://wapshop.gameloft.com/wapshop-uk/mini/hdplus_samsung/index.php (access from the tab)
  
  Samsung Movies : http://p1-uk.acetrax.com/
  
  Try the links from the tab. I have 2 icons on the menu which redirect to those 2 links for games and movies.

    They should have come pre-installed on the tablet. Use the links in my previous reply to use the vouchers.

In general Pros – Fast. Well built with a slick design. Runs almost all Android apps. Supports Adobe Flash 10.1.
Cons – Not enough tablet-centric software. Reflective screen. Slick back. more galaxy pros and cons at http://www.mobile10.org/?page_id=15 . Bottom LineWith solid, well-designed hardware, the Samsung Galaxy Tab for Sprint is the first viable Android-based competitor to the Apple iPad. But so far, it doesn’t have apps that will compel you to buy one.

hi bogdan thankyou very much i hav’nt got the icons on my homescreen,but thankyou for the links.

I tried but it didn’t work for me
I think it must be because I bought my Galaxy Tab earlier than the promotion period “This promotion is only available… …who have purchased a Samsung Galaxy Tab… …during the Promotion Period”
What a pity!

  hi tim
  i only got my tab a month ago and got the entertainment package last week,so it should work for you too x
- Goblin36
  
  hi tim the promotion doesn’t end untll feb 2011?

  I bought the Galaxy Tab before the promotion as well and I was able to get the vouchers. Where did you buy the Galaxy Tab from? They might have not registered your Galaxy Tab properly to Samsung.

Hi

I just bought the Galaxy tag and loving it but I’m getting frustrated about your £200 package promotion- When I insert my details and correct IMEI number I get an error that it is an incorrect IMEI number but I’ve checked over again and all is correct.

Do you have to put a sim in the tab first or does it take a day or two for the IMEI number to sync with the promotion?

Registered and got only WHSmith voucher so far. Tried to use this on the App on the tab, didn’t work. Tried it on the PC website and it worked. Now I can’t transfer the books back to the tab and the app bookshelf states no books have been downloaded…..very frustrating to say the least.

  Not received my Samsung tablet tablet pack yet. Registered 31 December 2010. I believe that Samsung just wants peoples credit card numbers. I just use my Samsung galaxy tab for nothing more than watching videos, Youtube downloads, and listening to music. I leave it on all the time in airplane mode. It’s fantastic for on the move entertainment.

samsung galaxy tab pros & Cons galaxy is the first viable competitor to the Apple iPad, it is a well-built Android tablet that’s comfortable and easy to use. But for now, it lacks the software experiences to make it worth its high price.more on that at tablet info http://www.mobile10.org/?page_id=15 . beside that the main cons ConsNot enough tablet-centric software. Reflective screen. Slick back.

Hello. I managed to activate the movies voucher (took me a while though) and downloaded 2 movies. Since then, every other one returns an error message and wouldn’t allow to download movies at all. Please advise how to deal with this issue

There seems to be lots of problems with Samsung’s promotion.
Are they going to address peoples problems or have we all lost out on the offer?

How do I get the email resent?
- Shaneadams70
  
  I never received my email either and phoned them and got someone who spoke little English and eventual after repeating letters of my post code 18 times he said it would be sorted but still not received my email what a joke

Got my TAB last week and tried to Movies and Games and all work fine. Its a but messy with the Vid’s so downloaded onto PC and tired to transfer with KISE but seemed to takes ages, so scrapped that and went for the direct USB mass storage and 2 mins later . Will have a look at Books next, downloaded app so far with WHSmith
- Terry
  
  I have the same problem…KIES just sits there for 30 minutes doing nothing….please explain what you did

The Samsung £200 Tab entertainment package is ONLY AVAILABLE to those Galaxy Tabs purchased during the promotion period (8/12/10 to 28/2/11. If, like me, you purchased before 8/12/10 then Samsung will NOT include you in the offer.( I purchased my Tab on the day of release). I actually called the telephone support line and got my information from them. Come on Samsung treat the people that had faith in your new product and bought early. After all is only one month.
- Welshblood
  
  I’m the opposite to you: Got my Tab the day AFTER the closing date. Ordered before closing date, but delivery took longer than expected. Emailed & rang Samsung, but to no avail. I think they should look after existing customers, as if they don’t, they will not get repeat business.

Everytime I try to download movies I am asked for payment. Why is this? What am I doing wrong?

registered oin 7th JAnuary still not had an email with vouchers yet
Mutleysmusic

Had my tab a few months and mostly love it but if i turn it off then on some of the apps i put on the main screen will revert back to the secondary app position. Today it also deleted all the films i had downloaded from samsung films. All 4 movies disappeared from the movies app? Anyone else lost information. Cheers mutley

Just to let you know I got my Tab last weekend and the Samsung Movies site is STILL a big fail. Awful, awful site.

Half of the time the pages aren’t there. Sometimes the voucher code isn’t recognised at all, other times it says it

is but when you go to the basket the discount hasn’t been applied. I’ve tried so many times to get the voucher to

actually work, I know the code off by heart. Customer service link just points to a generic Samsung website with no

actual customer service email that I can find. Some of us work until 7pm, so can’t phone. Presumably they gave

away this deal to try and encourage people to buy a Tab (I have no problem with the kit) and use their download

sites (never again!). Samsung UK’s Twitter account has mysteriously disappeared.

Also, a minor point but it just goes to show how shoddy the site is, Samsung Movies shopping cart has too many P’s

in it. Shoppping? Don’t they even put it through a spellchecker? Just goes to show what a bunch of amateurs this

Acetrax are. Samsung make great kit but they don’t choose their third party suppliers well. Either that or the

companies they’ve chosen wanted to give out freebies were struggling for business – and I can see why.

And as for WHSmith; I’ve bought ebooks from them before and the first one I bought was full of errors. Looked like

it had been scanned then OCR’d. I told them when I mailed them, if I wanted something like that I’d have Torrented

one. This time, the Android app didn’t like the voucher code, so I bought the books on the website. It won’t

download them, nor will it put them in the app Bookshelf.

I have not even TRIED the music download.

Beginning to feel a little defrauded here. On my travels through the net for help on this, I found a thing from

Samsung that says this: “You must redeem your vouchers by midnight on 31st March 2011 otherwise they automatically

expire […] Samsung shall not be responsible for any non-receipt of voucher codes or the failure of any links from

the vouchers code to the vouchers at the relevant third party websites”

So they’ve offered a carrot to get us to buy the thing, but then say that they don’t actually HAVE to produce the

carrot. Trading Standards anyone? I feel sorry for anyone suckered into buying a Tab on the basis of this offer at

the end of February, because they’ll only have a month to sort all this grief out.

  Sorry about the way this post has turned out for formatting, by the way. No idea why it looks like that.

Bought this as a Christmas prezzie for my husband. He is SOOOOOOOooooo fed up with trying to get the £200 worth of stuff. It’s not worth it, Samsung, you should be ashamed – this is a real rip off, difficult, complicated, time-consuming poorly documented and over-embellished as comprehensive offer. Impossible to claim. Apple treat you better.

You prefab rattling fastidious points here. I performed a seek on the issue and observed virtually all peoples present concur with your journal.
