Hi, I've been trying to upgrade to the new S21 Ultra but I keep getting declined by Klarna. This wasn't an issue when I first applied last year, what's the point of getting into this program if I can't even upgrade? Does anyone have any advice? Thanks in advance.

Hi, I have also been declined by Klarna for Samsung upgrade lounge pre-order of Galaxy S21, despite the monthly repayment amount being less than my current monthly payment, no missed payments on my record and very good credit score. This has left a hard search on my credit file which is very unsettling as we are trying to prepare for a mortgage. I don't wish to risk another Klarna application and won't use the Upgrade Lounge again but as it seems the root of this is a system error I do wish for the hard search to be removed from my file. Please send details of how to sort this out. Thank you.

Do none of you moderators ever read these properly??

Can you not see we have all spoken to Samsung and Klarna further and still nothing gets sorted??

Another moderator messaged me privately over a week ago took all my details and said someone from Samsung will be in touch.

Surprise surprise I still haven't been contacted by anyone. Your organisation is an actual joke. Never had this type of issue with Apple
