S23+ pre-order false adverti*****t

I pre-ordered my S23+ at at Samsung online store on the 3rd of February. Prior to that I had received multiple mail advertising the launch of the new galaxy devices which had quite the enticing perks when you sign up/show interest in the device and preorder at a certain time at that time it was by 6 March. The perks included: 1. Increase in storage space for free 2. Free S6 Tablet 3. R2000 voucher 4. 1000 in rewards points

I can confirm I have since received everything with the exception of the R2000 voucher, I have called multiple times sent emails to the escalation team which has proven to be useless, how does an escalation team have a 5/10 days turn around time or is me who doesn't understand the word escalation. It's simple you promised us the perks, I orded the device and I have earned my perks. I have not received anything in writing on why I haven't received my vouchers. Instead whenever I reach out they are ducking and diving and trying to find ways to disqualify me from getting the voucher. Samsung you need to be held accountable for false adverti*****t, you lack integrity, this pre-order adverti*****t was one big ****.

Ever since I received this generic response I can confirm that nothing had happened, the only thing I received was a reference number and no follow up since then. I have have called twice and was told the matter is being escalated which is their favorite response with no actions to back it up. I an truly disappointed in your lack of integrity and no sense of urgency in your customer service department. You don't value your customers at all.
