What no "inconvenience credit" this time?

Wait... let the customer pay to exchange for a product none of us want.  No way am I going to fork out $200 to "upgrade" two phones, I don't care if it gets refunded or not.

And what about the payments already made on the Note 7? 

We paid off my wife's S6 just so she can get the Note 7.  She would rather just go back to the S6.  Now, if we want to return the note 7, I have to put everything back in the box and return just like I would for MY convenience?  Really?  You're worried about getting a box and a USB cable back?

This is starting to sound like a matter for an attorney, I would be surprised if there isn't a class action getting underway right now.

I purchased the S7 Edge (still have the Note) and only asked Verizon for the $25 credit; I had only purchased the second "safe" version of the Note.  Am going to go back and see about the other $75 after finding this on the Samsung Site.
