no they wont what i done was signed up with new email so i still got the 50gb

jaythenut is correct, they wont stack promotions, you can either sign up for a new DB account to get the 50 GB, or you can give it to someone else (by letting them log into their dropbox account on your device)

Hi,
Check your e-mail for a link that will increase your amount.
So is there a catch or a three year timelimit or something?

Hi,
To quote from "Dropbox":
Is my Samsung phone or tablet eligible for the free space promotion?
« Back to Help Center
If you have a brand new Samsung phone or tablet with Dropbox already installed, you may be eligible to earn 48 GB of free space for up to two years. To qualify:
The Dropbox app must be pre-loaded on your device.
You need to complete at least five steps from our Get Started guide.
Your carrier must be participating in the promotion.
Make sure Dropbox is pre-loaded
Dropbox must be "pre-loaded" on your brand new phone or tablet, which means that the Dropbox app already came installed without the need to download it from the Google Play store.
If the Dropbox app is pre-loaded on your device, you may qualify for 48 GB of bonus space for up to one year.
Additionally, some devices that have the Dropbox app pre-loaded may also have the Dropbox "out-of-box experience," which means that the first time you turn on the device, you'll be asked to sign in to Dropbox or create a new account. If your device has the out-of-box experience, you may qualify for 48 GB of bonus space for up to two years.
The first Dropbox account that signs in to the app on the device will get 48 GB of free space (assuming the other conditions are met). Each account is only able to claim this promotion once.
Complete the Get Started guide
To claim your extra space, you need to complete at least five steps from our Get Started guide. Please note that some steps require your desktop computer.
Make sure your carrier is participating
Some carriers have opted out of the promotion on phones otherwise eligible. Among those not currently participating are the following carriers:
United States: AT&T
Japan: NTT DoCoMo
Korea: SK Telecom
Verizon customers: Some Samsung devices on Verizon may be eligible for 48 GB of bonus space for one or two years. As described above, your device needs to be pre-loaded with the Dropbox app, or pre-loaded with the Dropbox out-of-box experience, to receive the applicable promotion. If your device does not have the Dropbox app pre-loaded, then it is not eligible.
Whatever it is ,we know that it IS limited...

Sammy is 2 years as long as the network operator is taking part, certainly in the UK the UK they are all 2 year 48gig deals.
Create a new account then check your email, complete any 5 steps in the starting guide and it enables your space.
When I've set up my phone, in the initial process there was a question to sign in or create new Dropbox account, I signed in with my current one after which I received e-mail to claim the free space. The additional 48 GB are valid for 24 months.
I received the extra space on my S3 but when adding my account onto my S4 and I didn't get the extra space. Looks to be one per account?

Hi,
They give you notice that it is about to get reduced.
Presumably ,just enough time to "buy" some space before you have to move it.
Hi, Can you please send me a link to increase my space as well? I already have a basic account on right now.
Thanks,
mihir
I didnt get the 50GB free cause I already have 50GB from my S3... somewhere in the fineprint it mentions if you already had a similar promo on your account you wont be eligible. Blows but ... its okay. I have 45gb free. :cyclops:

The link comes after you apply for it.
On the phone, you should have the drop box app.
Go on it, sign up and register.
They will send you the link in the reply email.

$50 credit fro Google play....?

I just got this tablet last week, and registered it through Samsung. But I don't see anywhere where I can get my credit through Google play. I have contacted both Samsung and Google about this, no replies yet. Anyone been successful in getting the credits yet? Any advice is appreciated.

Mine came with the info in the packaging. I am sure it is $25 in google play and $50 in samsung store credit though.
Here is the registration link for the us.
http://www.samsung.com/us/register-for-your-galaxy-perks/
Oops...you are right... $25 in Google play. I checked my box, and did not have anything in there (promotional codes)
Just waiting for replies from google and samsung..
Thanks

Yep, that's exactly what i got.
Note that the Samsung store $50 credit expires in a couple months so don't forget to use it. I spent mine on $50 worth of obscure music I wanted and couldn't find for d/l elsewhere.

I'm having a hard time finding $5 worth of stuff to buy there!
When the first note came out,the Samsung Store had some good stuff in there. Not now...
How long did it take you to get your codes?

Almost immediately.
My codes were delivered almost instantly after I applied.
What if you return the tablet, do you keep the codes? The new lg g pad Google Edition is really tempting and I am thinking of returning the note 10.1

Mine showed up pretty much instantly. I want to say that after submitting i got a confirmation page.
The Samsung app store stinks but the music store is a bit better so I spent it there.
this happened to me. if you dont get it immediately it means something is wrong with the system. email samsung to complain and you will get your codes.
i needed to go through like 5 half hour chats with customer service to get my perks.

I purchased:
Dengue Fever - Dengue Fever (self titled CD)
Dengue Fever - Escape From Dragon House
Dropkick Murphys - Live on St Patrick's Day
Phil Anselmo / Warbeast - War of the Gargantuas
An All-Star Tribute to Lynyrd Skynyrd
An Industrial Rock Tribute to Judas Priest
All winners!
Note that I did have to search for a while to find them. I noticed that the Samsung Store search index is really messed up, and I had to try a couple of different techniques to even find this stuff. For most of these, I had to go to the artist page and look at all of the albums listed on their artist page. Searching for the album title, or going directly to a list of albums by the artists did not work (ie. these titles were not displayed at all).
If you didn't get your email with codes.
I didn't get my email at first. Later that day I found it in my GMail.
I used my Roadrunner email to register, and that's where I was expecting the reply.
However; the GMail account was the one identified with my Samsung account, so that's where they sent the email.

Registration question
I got 2 of these for family members, and have a question on how this credit is received. I'd like to attach one person to one tablet and another person to the other. It's my understanding that I'm eligible for 2 of these credits - one for each device... BUT, I'd then like to also attach a shared GMail account to each device and use the Google Play credit on the shared account.
Google says you can attach up to 3 devices to an account, and I know Android allows multiple accounts without an issue. What I don't know is how this Samsung credit sends you the $$. Do I need to register both with Samsung under the same GMail account? (Would Samsung even allow me to do so?) Or do they e-mail you the codes after the fact and let you take that code to another account?
I asked Samsung support, and they said it just wasn't possible - but that answer doesn't appear to coincide with their published Terms & Conditions, so I don't really believe it. I'm hoping someone that's been through the process can guide me to an answer I'd like to hear.

edit: can be used starting tomorrow with the pre-orders. cool
I received mine immediately, but you have to check your spam box and make sure your college isn't filtering out the mail also.
Received mine after about 10 minutes as well. Hopefully it's good for a while. Waiting for the new nexus to be announced before making a decision.

maybe there's more demand for the phone than we think. i'll update should i get my promo code today.
i just did a Moto chat online (last year i realized their customer support is ace) and they're gonna re-issue me a promo code. it's been like 7hrs since i submitted my email.
edit: got it
Got mine I'm good to go tomorrow
Is the discount specific to your account? Basically can i use someone's discount that uses an iPhone on my account?
Does anyone have an extra code,thanks in advance.
Mine doesn't mention an expiration date. I guess I'll ask via chat in the morning if it expires since I'd like to handle one in person before I pull the trigger.
Says I already have a promo code for my email address. the only time i used it was for the original moto x. they need to update the system
Any expiration date to this?
I'm not eligible for an upgrade until November...hoping to get that moved up to maybe mid-October if lucky..

If you have already used the promo code, you can't have another one. It's one per .edu address

I should've explained better. If you received a promo code with a certain .edu email address, Moto won't allow you to receive another one with the same .edu address. But since you changed yours, it doesn't matter now

How did you change it? Do you have multiple .edu accounts? I have only one and am stuck like you were because I used it on the first moto x(2013).

Dropbox promotion?

T-mobile here and I got the notification to get free 50 gb for 2 years when I first opened the gallery app. I accidentally pressed back and it never came back. I logged into the dropbox app but it didn't give me the free storage. My account is still at 8 gigs. Anyway I can still get the 50gb deal?
Just new users
I'm sorry to tell you this but It SAYS 50Gb for NEW USERS, I have the same app, if I use my account there's no 50GB promotion. Just for NEW USERS, sorry.
For new Samsung users. It did upgrade my existing Dropbox account when I did sign in to my Samsung account the first time but not after I got my second note
Hi,
The solution is to create a new Samsung account, right or no?
Oh I see. I had used this promotion with s3. I guess it doesn't give you second time.

Creat your new Dropbox acc to get promotion. I got 100GB with 2 live demo units

[Q] Did you get 50GB of Dropbox space?

Hi,
I enabled camera upload but I still don't see 50GB of space (just 2GB I had all the time).
I found a thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2020423
Is this still valid that you can get 50GB only once per account?
Thanks
1. Just for new user
2. After sign in, you have to follow their instruction to activate 48GB.
Just create new account with new email address. Then u will get the 50gb
Sent from my SM-N910C using XDA Free mobile app
It's working when you follow the guide but the 48GB will be free for 2 years only after that time you will have to pay for it.
Sent from my SM-N910F using XDA Free mobile app
Thanks for answers!
I will skip creating new acount now. Will do that when I will need those 50gb.
Hi
I got a galaxy s3 as a temporary replacement (my note 4 again got an air bubble under the glass) from warranty shop. I entered my drop box username and password during phone setup and... I was offered 50gb for 24months.
Thats totally strange. I didnt get 50gb with note4 but got that with almost 3 years old device.
Conclusion:
You dont need a new account to get 50gb.
