Ok..so perhaps I am an idiot...although I do consider myself somewhat intelligent. Mm.....
I just purchased a new Samsung Galaxy Watch...whoop whoop..happiness! Spend time studying it, setting it up...I like this watch! So far so good. Next on my list is spoiling myself with a new watch face. Ok, so it costs 25 bucks..that's ok..no harm done. I think I can afford 25 bucks. My Samsung profile has my credit card added so this should be easy peasy! Select my watch face and get to the payment screen...Ok...some level of unfamiliarity sets in! The only options available to pay are:
1. Your Mobile Account..company phone so not quite possible.
2. Samsung Pay;
3. Voucher;
Wait a minute!?!?...where is my credit card? It is not listed. Loooong story short..got hold of Samsung support and get told..Sorry Sir...those are the only options available. You can no longer pay with direct credit card. Panic sets in! My bank (Investec) does not yet support Samsung Pay. Sorry Sir...no other option then but to go buy a voucher. Oookkaaay.....where? Dunno Sir! A shop perhaps? It is not available online.
What the heck???? This is a new watch and I can buy NOTHING form the Galaxy Store? Yes Sir..afraid so!
Ok...so at this stage I am depressed swallowing some meds to calm me down. This is terrible news! Does anybody in the world out there know where to buy these "vouchers"? What type of vouchers? I recall seeing Apple and Google vouchers in store...but cannot recall seeing Samsung vouchers...pleeeease help a desperate man who desperately wants a new watch face....sniff sniff...emotional all over again!
