Vodacoms Policy

Hello all..

Lets start this out:
Last week Saturday I got my upgrade to a Nokia N81.
But, it was only given to me on my birthday, 14 May.

I used the phone, and then this passed weekend, I decided to
put some music on my phone. I put everything on and out of 200
hundred songs, 15 showed up in music player. (Note: all songs same format),
when I decided to play the songs, they played - all was well - but I couldn't
change the volume, change songs or stop it and the phone was only picking up a portion
of the songs..

Then the phone started going funny, sticking and MXiT and other applictions,
causing problems.

So I decided I received a faulty phone, and went to the Vodashop today,
where I got my upgrade.

The lady said that since the phone has passed the 7 days - where if something is wrong with the phone they would give you a new one or something.. I would have to get it repaired..

But, I've had the phone for 10 days, but only used it 6 days - even though this doesn't matter. But now I have to wait 15-18 working days, so +- 3 weeks, for a phone which I received faulty. So now I'm without a phone

What do you guys think I should do?

Get an ipod for your music and take mxit off your phone ? Its after 7 days they will send the phone in for repairs.

Ye... well its in repairs now as its been after 7 days.

Another guy bites the dust.

Nokia Symbian is slow, load it with data and it gets sloooower... even if its saved on a memory card. Whats the ram on your N81? Not to much.

I wouldnt blame it on the SW to be honest, its your fault.
Put 200 songs on a N82 I bet the same thing will happen.

 

[Jean-PaulM]

Yeah well 200 songs - 80kb/s 500 megs roughly. not alot?

Oh well.. The lady didn't even switch on the phone. Just took it in, and said they will call in 3 weeks time and signed a few papers ..
