I wasn't really quite sure where to put this thread, but I thought people might use a service like Shipito more often than not when purchasing accessories, so dropped the thread here.
Basically I've written a guide as to how to go about having electronics shipped from the US to any location around the world - it's how I got my 64GB micro SDXC card from the Sandisk US online store for example. I actually had quite a few people asking me how to purchase the SDXC cards, hence the thread.
Anyways, if anybody needs it, the guide is here.

Handy... Thanks
Hi. If your on this forum, that means you love Android as much as me. But I still don't like too many company's having my credit card details, and wish there was gift cards I could purchase from a normal shop to spend on the Market. So I set up a petition to try and get Google's attention.
www .ipetitions.com/petition/android-market-gift-cards/
Thank you!
For MOD - I apologise if this is not allowed, or is in the wrong place.
I don't think this would be that popular. If you can't trust google with your credit card, i don't think you could trust them with gift cards.
I also think you can trust goole with your credit card! But thow it would be great for people that do no own a credit card!

especially for kids like me with no credit cards, cant purchase anything
Is this only for US residents? I also could sign it although I am German but will this count?
Gifting apps would be nice too, I had to basically steal my girlfriends google account in order to "gift" her minecraft PE....
It will be great if I can to buy apps from market when I don't have any credit card.
Hello, I've been using the Infuse ever since it launched in May and I love it. However, when I try to purchase a game or app, it says failure, please sign into your Google Wallet Account. I do know that Google Wallet only works with the Nexus S and Galaxy Nexus. Is there any alternative that does not require me having to put my credit info in and still be able to buy games?
@OP: Oops about that thanks.
Try using virtual credit card. Many banks allow for this. I have a virtual card with $100 limit and it works great and there is no need to divulge the real card info.
Its a problem with your card. Sign in on a computer and fix it.
I got a new debit card and was getting same thing. I signed in and realized I entered the date wrong.

No but I don't want to put my card in. It gave me an ability to bill to my ATT but that doesn't work. I might try the Vritual Credit Card diablo mentioned.
Delete please
Also, to put the two biggest sources of information together, here's a link tot eh tween from Will Graylin
"soon to be down loadable on Google Play for Verizon customers. Hoping in the next week or so."

Hey,
I am posting on my note 5 from work. I just got an announcement to inform customers who call about samsung pay to inform them to check play store, if it is not available say to try android pay. And if a customer calls about a samsung pay problem give them the support number for Samsung pay, after checking for an Ota update.
If a customer calls angry about not having samsung pay I am supposed to apologize and direct you to the play store.
I will be uploading a picture of the announcement when I get home.

Is this okay to quote you and link to this thread? I'm thinking about making a blog post about this. I just didn't want to get you in trouble with your boss
Thanks so much for giving us access to this info!
What about this?
Yeah, but their website also continued to say that the non-fast wireless charger worked with the note5 and s6e+. I think their website is a bit slow, especially at tweaking a more nuanced detail.
It is coming, maybe? How did this solve anything? Lol

Hey guys.
Haven't posted on XDA in a while but thought I'd potentially start a discussion in regards to Samsung Pay here in the UK.
I emailed Samsung about the fact in which they announced the UK as a 2016 expansion location for Samsung Pay. They have released the service to a multitude of countries that were not actually on the expansion list before bringing it to the UK (which they still have not done).
Here was the response I got:
Following your email, I can confirm Samsung UK Pay is currently not available in the UK. Samsung Pay is currently in the testing phases, please continue to check our Samsung UK website and social sites for further news and updates.
----
While I already knew it was not available, could this be an indication of them 'testing' it in the country?
I have also noticed a random Lloyds Bank URL with 'Samsungpay' in it. (It says nothing about it on the actual page, just some random terms: https://islands.lloydsbank.com/samsungpay/)
I have actually prevented myself from rooting my phone just to wait for this and am disappointed it has not been released yet. I know it may sound stupid but if I rooted and then it was released I'd be gutted!
What do you think fellow brits? :good:
Im the same as you, been/still waiting for it....Thanks for the info.

It's currently a testing page which is exactly what they had before Android pay was released.

Nice find! So it looks like we will be getting it soon
Should be before end of the year :good: but the novelty wears off and you end up just pulling your card out and using contactless :laugh:

I kind of have that with Android Pay I just think Sammy Pay looks so sleek and because it's accepted everywhere, I'm still excited for it!
I heard rumors that they were going to leave out MST payments in the UK which I think would be pointless, if that was the case I'd stick with Android Pay!

Where is Android Pay not accepted? I just use it at any random NFC terminal and it's worked fine, so far....?

Same lol. My Natwest card is always on me. Slap that on the terminal and I'm done. Sometimes I don't want to pull a phone out.

To be honest, I haven't tried it anywhere that isn't listed as supported on the Android Pay website
I've used it at the BP garage, Co op, Cafe Nero etc.
I thought the retailer had to officially support it (much like apple pay) but maybe not!

I have only used Android Pay to either take advantage of a special offer or when I have forgotten my debit card. Otherwise contactless is so effortless. I am not sure how Samsung Pay can compete with Android Pay in the UK. We are more chip & PIN or contactless here than many other countries. Our debit cards are definitely more convenient.

Well i kind off disagree here, too late for me btw cause is knox 0x1 xd, but going back to the topic, samsung pay take the advantage of using the phone at the terminals without contactless, so u can probably use it just anywhere, hence how it can compete with android pay! i am using android pay everyday, rather than havin to open my wallet

I've been waiting for Samsung Pay since last year when I bought my S6. I haven't rooted either my S6 or S7 Edge in the hope that Samsung Pay would finally arrive. Typically it's taking so long that I've almost given in and rooted the f*ck out of it!
If they don't support MST in the UK, they might as well not release Samsung Pay here!
Has anyone used Barclays' contactless mobile app? I much prefer that to Android Pay.
I'm in the US and flashed UK because I had Egypt, I thought UK was supported and went ahead and flashed. Its pissing me off that Samsung said UK would be first after US and S Korea but now there are almost 10 countries and they still haven't released it. I doubt its the banks since those links prove their waiting for it. I don't want to flash again because I like the UK Rom most (updates faster, more features etc.) Samsung better release it this month or early December, if they don't in 2016 I'm gonna ****ing riot. Also it better support MST because here in the US very few stores have NFC.
It's really strange that it hasn't been released in the UK. Really odd
