So my buddy had his iPhone 6 for about a month and it just completely died by itself and wouldn't come back on. Took it to the Apple store today and right before giving him his replacement the guy put it on the table and said oh it's bent and started tapping the corner of the phone and it would tilt back and forry. Mind you he has had a otterbox on it since day one. The guy just about didn't give him a new one saying he's supposed to deny it and walked back and forth a few times from us and the back before finally giving him a replacement. I thought if it bent there supposed to give you a new one how is that his fault?
 
lots of stories of apple stores denying people replacements for bending since its actually (i agree) the users fault

yes the phone is prone to bending but it doesnt do it by itself

thats why i copped apple care plus, they cant tell me nuttin bruh

I want to go with that sprint unlmt data plan
Should I wait till the contact up
Or switch now and try to get that $350 towards etf

Which side did they put the phone down? Cause the camera lens at the back will cause the phone to rock a bit as it sticks out.
 
traded my iPhone 6 for a 6+

MUCH better with a case :smokin

dude included his apple leather case, and i gave him my silicone with my iPhone 6. he bought applecare+ as well so i added cash.

congrats brah :hat

how you like the leather case does it make the phone thicker

scared about the red i bought that over the course of a few months it will wear heavily or get really dirty. hope it doesnt

i prefer the silicone case. if i can go to apple and trade this for a silicone one, i will. my red silicone that i used for a month was perfect.

leather is okay, but it discolours quick. i had the red leather for my iPhone 5 and it changed colours fast so i returned it.

damn dont like to hear that :{

you think i should try and cancel my ebay order?

The Apple Store, if you have one near you, should have the cases on display to test with your own device.

On the back with the screen facing upward :lol he had the nerve to blame it on the otter box saying it was applying pressure on the phone

I find it hard to believe the apple store did this. I would call apple and get that idiot fired.
 
Might buy a giftcard or something to use ApplePay I still don't feel safe using a card link to my personal bank account

you do know you have a higher chance of getting your cards compromised when physically swiping them right.

So? My accounts have never been compromised through my swiping. I personally don't feel comfortable just having my card info stored on my phone, sooner or later someone will figure out a way. Especially after I woke up with the U2 album on my phone that I didn't ask for I haven't been comfortable.

i thought the same thing, the camera sticking up makes the phone lift and of course wobble

Its not stored anywhere, i dont think you have anything to worry about SRS
 
The U2 album is just a streaming thing via your iTunes account it's not actually stored on your phone. Least I don't think it is.

The case is thin and doesn't add bulk but it feels mad cheap. Not worth the $45 at all. At the end of the day it's preference. The silicon case was much better than the leather.

What do you mean it's not stored anywhere? It clearly has to be stored on my phone for me to use it otherwise I would have to enter my info everytime I make a purchase :lol

It wasn't there with a little cloud next to it, it was on my phone.

when has apple done something for its user that wasnt safe? dont bring up icloud since they werent even hacked. they figured out peoples passwords.

aint no one figuring out how to get into your phone and steal your CC

just my opinion of course
