Samsung's UK division is helping out folks who are frustrated with their iPhone 4s. Indeed, @samsungukmobile is contacting people who've tweeted about their problems with their iPhone 4s, asking them for their contact details and then sending them a Galaxy S handset.

An example complaint was tweeted here, with the following text:

Our iPhone 4s don't get reception in our office :-( Neither did the old HTCs but now we're blaming the antennas, not Orange.

A little while later, Samsung contacted Digital Network, with the resulting tweet:

@DigitalNetwork Hi, your Samsung #GalaxyS is on the way and you should get it this afternoon!

Tiffany Nieuwland, another free Galaxy S recipient, told Wired UK:

"My iPhone and I have been inseparable for almost a month now, tomorrow being one month since the iPhone OS 4 launched. But the honeymoon period ended this week as repeated dropped calls, and a sudden unexplainable inability to make or receive calls or send texts left me disgruntled.

"So I did what anyone else would do: I vented my frustration on Twitter. Imagine my surprise, then, when this morning I am tweeted by Samsung offering me a free Galaxy S, their latest phone. Too good to be true? I decided to investigate.

"I called a friend at Samsung, and though she was initially sceptical, it has now been confirmed: the campaign is legit. Samsung is so confident about the superiority of the Galaxy S that they’re sending free ones to existing iPhone customers so they can decide for themselves."

The Samsung Galaxy S launched last week in the U.S. as the T-Mobile Vibrant (above) and AT&T Captivate. Verizon and Sprint have upcoming versions as well (Fascinate and Epic 4G, respectively).

The phones come with a 1GHz Samsung Hummingbird CPU, a 4" Super AMOLED screen, Android 2.1 (for now) and varying storage capacities depending on the carrier. One of Samsung UK's recent tweets said they're running out, so if you are a disgruntled iPhone 4 customer, start tweeting now.
