Stop working after 8 months. Not charging, and even if it did, it won't hold charge. Chat with Samsung Care SMS but no help. Even they don't know how to do a warranty claim from my end. What a bummer!!!

I’m sorry to hear your Freestyle Battery Base is no longer working as expected. We’d like you to check a couple of things to see if we can help resolve this.
1. Make sure you’re connecting the top USB-C port on the Battery Base directly to The Freestyle’s USB-C port. Your device may be damaged if the battery is not properly connected. • The top USB port is designed to connect to The Freestyle & fast-charge external devices. • The bottom USB port will charge the Battery Base & external devices. 2. Also, ensure the USB-C cable you're using is either the included cable or a Samsung-brand charging cord. 3. Check the battery level by pressing the button below the USB ports. • If one LED indicator blinks, charge the Battery Base. 4. If there is dust or moisture in the charging terminal, charging may be blocked for device protection. Gently clean with a soft brush and try charging again.
I hope these tips help. You can always contact us for further assistance at 1-800-SAMSUNG, 8AM - 12AM EST, 7 days a week. Our LiveChat agents are also available by clicking on the ‘Support’ link on our website.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product is average. Don't know much about technology but it works like it should (gets the job done)

I used the battery base maybe 6 times within a year. The battery will not hold a charge. Based on all of the negative reviews, Samsung should recall this product and replace it with something that actually works.

Like many others, my battery no longer holds a charge as well. I used it for maybe 15-20 hours in the 11 months I had it before it stopped charging. It was great while it worked. Now people are saying its not even covered under warranty? That's a huge disappointment on Samsung's part. They let us down with this one. I expect the same copy and paste troubleshoot instructions response below...
