View 8 RepliesI ordered a phone through a line that was upgrade eligible for another line. They said that when I get the phone I call AT&T and get the SIM card ready to be activated for the other line.I called them up and gave them the "IMEI" number. They said that that iPhone 4 was now associated with my other line. However, when I plugged it into iTunes, it still said the original line. The customer service rep insisted that when it was activated it would activate on the correct line.Sure enough, it didn't. It activated on the original line - now I am stuck without an iPhone 4 - I don't have an AT&T store where I live so I can't just get a replacement SIM card. The original lines phone is now deactivated and activated with MY iPhone 4. I now have to wait for them to ship out a SIM card which will take another WEEK.Because of AT&T I am now left without a phone, my iPhone 4 is now activated on another line, and thus have to wait a week to get it fixed.Thank you AT&T for screwing up again, further proving you to be the worst wireless carrier I have ever been a customer of.
View 6 Replies View Relatedlike many of you I've purchased all 3 iPhones to date on the first day they became available. I've been on my own individual plan for all of these purchase.. now I'm married and added my wife last July 11th under the "Family Plan" umbrella with a new 3GS. So there you have it.. we both have iPhone 3GS's purchased within 3 weeks of each other.Here's my problem: MY number (the main line) is eligible for an upgrade at the promotional price; my wife's number is not eligible until mid-March. Even though this phone was purchased 3 week after mine. First of all, neither AT&T Customer Relations, AT&T Customer Care or the ding dong at the corporate store can tell me ANYthing over the phone unless I drive myself all the way up to my nearest AT&T corporate store and debate common sense theories with him in person.He says only the main number will be eligible for an upgrade.. I say "So basically it's cheaper to my $120 ETF and start a new account instead of paying the full retail price $699 (400 dollar spread between promo rate and full retail). Would this not appear to create an incredible amount of busy paperwork for AT&T employees?So long story short, it would appear that if upgrading to new iPhones every year is your thing.. it's best to have two separate individual plans coming into your home instead of AT&T's Family Plan.Curious if I'm missing something, if this sounds right or any input you guys may have.

iPhone 4, iOS 5.1
An Apple customer service representative just informed me that today, they were informed that there is a limit of only one iPhone for online order per account, no matter what the eligibility of your various AT&T lines are. I ordered each of my iP4's separately, although they're under the same family plan. He said, "It wasn't announced and we, or at least I, was just informed about this today, but you can only order 1 iPhone online. We've actually had a lot of people calling about order cancellations." I specifically asked him why this was the case if multiple numbers on a family plan are eligible for an upgrade, but he was unable to answer. He stated that we would have to purchase our second iPhone 4 in store and that everyone who ordered more than one iPhone will have all but one of their orders cancelled.I've ordered 2 iP4's. One has been shipped, and the other has, "Not yet Shipped." The rep looked up my order for the phone that hasn't been shipped yet and said that there is a hold on it because we're only allowed to order one iPhone 4 online. So, if what this rep said is true, how can so many people claim that both of their orders have been shipped? Here's another thread stating the same thing: http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=943290
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have never had this happen to any other Nokia LCD device before or any other similar device that I have owned. There is definitely some strange issue, as when the screen goes fuzzy, if you lock the phone and then place it on or near a heat source for a few moments, when you unlock it the screen is mysteriously working again. This is a very frustrating issue which is exacerbated by the fact that the device is of the touchscreen variety which effectively renders it useless as if you can't see the screen then you can't see the buttons to control the infernal machine! Unless that is you are able to memorise the menus positions and also that of their sub-menus and options! Anyway, one thing I will say is that the service from Nokia is absolutely amzing when it comes to repairing them. I used the online form at http://www.nokia.co.uk/support/repair/repair/warranty?c=1 and they sent a UPS guy who arrived to collect the device the ver next day! That was last Monday, the 29th March, and I received back a brand new Nokia 5800 today!
Obviously rather than repair the device they have just replaced it with the revised model that they are obviously producing now that they have realised and rectified their errors. I am very impressed with getting a new device and so quickly too! Only thing is, they don't send you a new back for the phone, as they tell you to keep yours at home and not send it to them, so if your back is worn it will look out of place with the brand new phone if thats the route that they take with your case, which I think they will, or rather should. That is because I have heard that people that were getting their original device repaired and returned to them the problem was recurring soon after it being returned to the user. Props to Nokia though on replacing my 5800! I must say that at first when I sent it I thought I was going to be waiting for ages, but as I said I only waited a week and they even have a widget on their repair part of the site that tells you the status of your repair and where they are with it, all you have to do it type in your case number.
I followed everyones suggestions about going to mobile.blackberry.com and then going to mail and following the prompts.But it would not work.I could not figure out why.I have several emails on this phone.I figured out today that I had to delete all of them EXCEPT 1.Once I did that,I validated the 1 I had left and it worked.I then had to go and re set up the other emails that I have on the phone. Just a heads up for those who have work, and personal emails sent to your phone.

View 6 Replies View RelatedMy E75 built-in browser is not working. After I open the "Web" tab it gives the list of bookmars, but as soon as I press left soft key it either exits back to the menu. And the other web-related icons (Download!, Files on Ovi; Software Update) don't work. Moreover, Download! reports "Unrecoverable error".
It started on 201.12.01 firmware, thought that update would help. 202.12.01 brought no changes.Factory reset wasn't helpful too. Tried uninstalling Opera mobile 10 beta, changing language, also - no changes.
So my story goes as this, I called customer care to inquire about the white iPhones and if there was any new information while also expressing my complaint for the time wasted trying to pre-order. I was extremely kind and it felt like a normal conversation between friends.In the middle of the conversation before I mentioned how much time I wasted, I said that I've adopted each of the iPhone's as I am a phone fanatic. He quickly interrupted and said, "Let me issue you a coupon". Of course, I did not object to such a generous offer and the coupon he issued was:
$30 off $100
$60 off $200
$100 off $300
He stated it couldn't be used on an iPhone or iPad but I know I've used their coupons on things where it shouldn't have worked before. It has an expiration date of 6/26/10 but he stated if I could not use it by then, call them back and they'll issue the same coupon which will last for 3 months. The fine details: 1-800-MY-APPLE and was automatically placed in the customer relations department. I just thought some of you might find it interesting that they are offering coupons due to this complicated ordeal.
Before the official release of iOS 5.1 I installed a developer version (eventhough I'm not a developer). The developer version expired. Now I can't update my iPhone 4S to the official version of iOS 5.1.
Info:iPhone 4, iOS 5.1
In Contacts I can chose the "ringtone" and "text tone" to override the default.I receive a text message from my company's pager system and save that address as a contact.And then set a custom "text tone" for that contact.So now normal test messages arrive with the default tone and pages can sound the "Alarm" It would be nice if I Contacts also let me chose the Alert Style and Repeats.(it would also be nice if Repeats worked at all)

My N900 micro-USB connector died only few months after I bought it. I sent it off to customer care and now they're telling me the phone is out of warranty due to either being out of the warranty period, being physically damaged or being water damaged. I took good care of the phone and it worked fine until the battery died.
I need to send every email twice to get a response and they never seem to listen to me.I asked them to reevaluate their verdict and then they asked me for proof of purchase - which I already sent with the damn phone! It seems like the people responding to the emails have no connection to the people who actually have the phone at the repair center.What can I do?
I have purchaesed Xperia Ray on 18th March. Recently i have faced display problem. I have given at Service center on 28th May.Thay told within 7-10 days it will take.
I called customer care after 10 days, they are telling some reasons, and they are not giving proper status/ action on this work order. If i want to know the status i need to call more than 4 times per day, to know the status, they will keep in hold to transfer to higher executives or to get the status from the team. I have faced this problem from the last few days. (14-06-12,13-06-12...)

OK today I was given a replacement Elm under my insurance because for some reason my Elm's speaker stopped working. Anyway got replacement fine all working well. I noticed the replacement had the previous firmware so I decided to update it using SEUS. Now after updating & setting up the phone again I noticed the clear voice & noise shield function had vanished I looked all through the menus & also during call menus but nowhere to be found. So I reinstalled AGAIN only to be greeted with the same problem. I called customer service number & got through right away. Spoke to a Scottish lady who had absolutely no idea what she was talking about. I knew that I was right & she was wrong. She went on to say that the clear call & noise shield function is NOT a feature of the Elm WTF? I said the feature is advertised on the website for the Elm & on the bloody box At this point I asked to speak with someone else & she went off to speak to someone & came back to repeat the same thing again I said how can you say this about it's not a feature of the Elm when it's advertised as it is? She then said when we send out the generic phones we don't put that feature on the phone it's the stores that do? At this point I just gave up & said forget it Has customer service always been that bad? I have not called them for many years but today was shocking

Recently, my iPhone has been having some service issue and it is not AT&T's problem. At home for example I always used to have 5 bars, but now the service will show no service and then 10 minutes it will show up all 5 bars then soon no service. This happens to me in many places.

View 10 Replies View RelatedI am without service after IOS 5.1. Since the upgrade, my phone can't make or receive any call. I bought it from my mobile operator (Claro Brasil) itself. The odd thing is that when I use the SIM of my brother (from another provider - TIM) the phone works perfectly. I called to Claro and they said everything is fine with my network and that they will open a procedure to see what can be done. I think they don't know what is happening and I can't wait much longer.
