Cell Phones:

[UK]

If I didn't need one for work, I'd throw it into a lake....

My phone isn't charging, so I buy a new charger at Verizon, since it charges on my wife's charger leaving me to figure that it's my charger.

I unwrap the new one, throw away the packaging, keep the paperwork, etc. it still doesn't charge. Try Amy's charger, now that one doesn't charge.

Off to Verizon again....

Try to return the charger, garbage day was yesterday which had the packaging in it but I still have the reciept. She said "since I took the plastic off (the back of the part that plugs into the wall)" and I don't have the original packaging, that I can't return it.

I tell her to look at phone, she put this machine on it and says that I got the phone wet and that's why it doesn't charge. The damn thing hasn't seen a drop of water in its life, it's their ultimate BS excuse as far as why they are not liable.

Luckily my wife still has credit on her phone, which I means I have to drag her there so they can transfer it to me since it is in her name. I'm still thinking [expletive] Verizon & pay the 175 termination fee.

What a bunch of [expletive].

Don't most cell phones have an indicator in the battery compartment that turns red/pink if the phone has been wet? That was the case when I dunked my previous two phones.

I'd certainly be angry if I were in your position. I usually get great service when I go to the Verizon store, even though it means waiting a while.

I love these stories. Work I guess I understand - marginally. Otherwise, why oh why oh why?

How's browsing with the 3G version (assuming you have the latest incarnation)? The edge network made the old one incredibly annoying to use imo.
