I needed to get in there before they run out of that mobo -- they only had 5 units for pre-order. it was down to the last 2 and now one of them belongs to ME!

no, not spoonfed, spoon-murdered.

MightyMission · May 13, 2011

sheeple.
one leads and the rest follows.It's quite sad really.

Bo$$ · May 13, 2011

Holy crap!
what mobile phone network are you guys on?
edit: and what do you think of their repair service?

MightyMission · May 13, 2011

3 and there repair service is crap.
they did give me a free phone instead of repairing my tired old n97 though so i guess they aren't that bad

Vodafone was quite down in my books till about 20 mins ago!
After 3 weeks of persistant issues i caved and I sent my nexus one in 2 weeks ago for an exchange and got a working refurb phone...
that died after 3 days of light usage... mailed it off to them telling them it wont power up (they said they will send it to HTC for repair). They sit on it for 2 weeks and then decide that they cannot fix it sent it to HTC today (and today is the day i was supposed to get the phone back)!
I called them up with fire coming out of my ears and eyes, and complained like a bitch! They first offered my 2 months free line rental and after some more pushing they offered me a complimentary HTC wildfire (white) which will arrive on monday! and as a bonus they will let me keep the nexus one whenever it comes back from repair!
Talk about 6 years of customer loyalty from me and another 12-15 years from my father!

they are the Bomb in my book

Result!
Good effort fella

Complaining always pays off.I got an n95 8gb about 5 years ago and the day i got it the piece of crap phone wouldn't hold its charge,
So i lit a fire under the orange rep's backside and got another n95 and all the handsfree/bluetooth extras they done at the time,including the car stereo module which was absolutely crap! Useless noise rejection on the mic and low output even when fed into my car amp and through all the speakers...distortion wether the engine was on or not....
Cue another rant,which got me a couple of months of free calls or something like that.
It does feel good to be able to right at least some of the wrongs that happen to you

i know how you feel, but considering my current phone can only be charged through a powermonkey as all the chargers dont work... i think i deserve this wildfire

MightyMission · May 13, 2011

damn right.
i was due for an upgrade a couple of months ago and i let the mrs take it,
so she got an optimus one? something like that...anyway so a month or so later and my phone starts acting strange occasionally/locking up and generally being an ass and i am at a loss what to do,
I might try flashing the firmware and see if that helps at all.
It is my own fault though as i have dropped it countless times and its really beginning to show its age against the newer "smart phones".even lurking t'interweb on it is tedious!

Bo$$ · May 13, 2011

Correction: Wildfire S in white!
thats better than my nexus one in more than one way!

MilkyWay · May 14, 2011

Im on O2 have been since i've had a mobile and im still on my original sim card lol. Good customer service and excellent signal but generally speaking they are a little more expensive than say orange or something which is why i couldn't totally recommend them.

3 is the worst god damn phone company in the universe, a family member has them as her network and cant even get signals inside her house ffs! Don't even ask them about billing or anything customer related either.

I have a Nokia 5530, at the time it was okay but everything is more or less half baked; email works sometimes and the battery indicator doesn't work most of the time. The phones started to go slow over time for no explainable reason. I heard Nokia are going to use Windows mobile from now on so maybe combining their decent hardware with a decent operating system will work out for them.

To me Vodafone sounded like dicks just stretching everything out, its your complaining about the problem that was key. Most people don't try and complain they just put up with stuff which is sad really.

You ever thought of getting a 3g enabled sim card?? If your saying your o2 sim card is same as you 1st had phone(presume its 3310 days??) then you may need consider upgrading your sim card to latest one for 3g connectivity etc.
