Samsung's confirmed that you'll be getting a refund for your phone.

The world’s biggest smartphone maker told owners to stop using the model, halting production and distribution pending a US investigation into reports of overheating battering on models that the company had earlier assured consumers were safe. That included a warning for consumers who had already received a replacement for defective models that they should turn the handsets off.

Consumers with either an original or a replacement Note 7 should power down and stop using the phone, Said Samsung.

"The company is in close discussions with its telecommunication operator and retail partners, and details on how Galaxy Note 7 customers can go about the exchange or refund will be provided soon. All Galaxy Note 7 customers are urged to take up the options when these are made available to them," it said in a statement.

Samsung is also looking into remedies for Galaxy Note 7 customers who purchased the Samsung Concierge service, it added.

Consumers can call 1800-SAMSUNG (7267864) for further assistance.
