Confused about how the reserve for Note 10+ works.

Question

I reserved my spot for the Galaxy Note 10+ and got the email that confirms it and mentions an extra $50 credit.

Am I to wait for another email to actually pre-order? I noticed the website allows me to pre-order already, however it doesn't list the $50 credit, only the $150 credit you already get just from pre-ordering.

Just kinda confusing because I'm not sure I understand the point of reserving if anyone can pre-order right now, and it isn't showing the credit even though I am logged in.

Also a side question, I noticed that AT&T is offering a deal where you get a Note 10 for free if you buy a Note 10/10+ under installment payments with unlimited plan. Is this some kind of trick, would I end up paying more than if I just paid in full?

Thanks for any help~

Not sure about the email but regarding the att BOGO...the only catch is you get bill credits monthly for the monthly cost of the phone you're getting for free. So you have to wait 2 years to upgrade. Otherwise you end up paying for that phone anyway. Also it requires you to have a line open that charged a monthly access fee

There should be a link in the email that you can click to start the preorder process. I was able to do it before the preorder became public.

The email simply said to wait for an email from us on August 7th. Never got another email. The link in the current email just takes me to the normal pre-order page.

Try pre-ordering in the shop Samsung app. I was able to do this before I got the email saying it was ready and received the $200 credit. Assuming you are signed in with the email you did the reserve for.
