I feel conned by Samsung South Africa

I Bought a Samsung S22+ on contract from Cellucity and with it was a compliment set of Samsung Buds from Samsung. I have registered on the Samsung Members and got this ref number ***FZUF2. This is now a month ago and still no buds. I have sent about 4 emails, I have tried to phone several times to no avail. It is as if everyone is trying to run away from me when I mention the words S22 and buds in the same sentence. Samsung simply ignores all my emails, my phone calls get redirected 4 times with one call and still no one can help me.... So here's my question Samsung. The buds' you offer with a Samsung S22 phone seems like a **** to get us to buy your high-end phones in your series and once the purchase is done and we wait 7 - 14 days (as per the members app) you guys laugh because you know you caught another sucker that just spends R20 000 plus to buy your high-end phone and you not going to send the buds as it was only a ****.... I have purchased every second high-end Galaxy S series for the past 10 years from Samsung, my house is full of Samsung products, but I think this is where it ends. From my experience with Samsung, it seems like a con story and one for the South African Police to and ombudsman to investigate as false advertising and *****.

I am running out of options contacting samsung and actually speaking to a HUMAN!!!!

I have tried several times to phone the promotion department on *** to no avail. Music is playing for more than 15 min of holding, and it is not even nice music, still no person to speak to.
I need to speak to a HUMAN consultant, no robot, no faceless chat business.

Why is Samsung so elusive to speak to their supportive customers.....maybe because you don't want to help us see that we already spend the money to purchase your product.

I am so fed up with Samsung I have decided after this incident it is not worth supporting the brand anymore that doesn't want to listen to their customers or have least at a minimum a human available to talk to.

NO NO NO NO NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO you guys don't read my request!!!!!! f#$%q#KKKKKKKKKKKKKK - I have asked SEVERAL TIMES to please SPEAK TO A HUMAN about my issue, but you guys keep on IGNORING ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I need to speak to HUMAN to explain the situation with the buds claim, geeeeeeeeeeeeezzzzzzzzzzzzz - it seems impossible for you guys to understand my request

If the wrong buds get here - then I will simply send your sh#$%^&@#$#t back because you do not want to listen to me.

How many times must I ask that a HUMAN get in contact with me on ***

Maybe this is one for social media - let the social media users see how useless you guys are in reading a simple request.
