Although it may seem strange, some users continue to ignore what Samsung wants and that is that they have not returned the Galaxy Note 7 devices. In this sense, we already saw the news from our colleague Ignacio, on Wednesday of last week that the firm itself South Korean had in her hands 96% of all devices, but that remaining 4% still does not return it and this is what the operators and the brand itself want to force. It is expected that in the next few hours the restrictions on these devices that remain without returning and To achieve this, the operators have teamed up with Samsung.
It is true that 4% may seem little if we compare it with the rest of the users who have returned the phablet of the brand, but it is important to remember that this device has a high probability of experiencing a fire unexpectedly and therefore it is important not to stay with it even if we don't use it on a day-to-day basis. Samsung itself has repeated actively and passively to users to return the Note 7 as soon as possible, but in view of the fact that some users continue with it, They are taking drastic measures apart from those already carried out previously together with the operators to force the return.
There is even an update for the Note 7 that directly disables the possibility of charging the battery in the devices, this measure has been taken mainly in the United States and that is precisely where more Note 7 is yet to return. Some users found a way not to update the devices and for this reason now there is talk of charging the device fully to all those users who have it contracted with an operator and are paying a monthly amount. In this case, the operators have registered the returns of their customers together with Samsung, so it is relatively easy to find out if this has been carried out or not. In the case that it has not been returned The operator would charge the total amount of the Note 7 payable to the customer until he returns it.
Measures that it is not clear that they work completely but that "are already desperate" on the part of the company so that users are aware that they have to heed the instructions and discard the Note.
