APPLE PHONES.......NO SERVICE


I have a new refurbished Apple phone that I have spent quit a bit of time trying to contact somebody at Apple to fix it....Its one month old......I have to wonder how a person can call a Apple person without spending the rest of there life trying to contact someone in the communication business.....I have tried e-mail, of course no body has a phone number, but if your phone doesn;t work , how would you call them anyhow......Maybe I should just sell it and get another brand that works.............What do you think ??

It wouldn't have to be much better than the apple phone, the Apple phone is worth-less......The Apple service is worth-less.........My Kyocera phone is twice the phone at less than half the cost.......And I have used it for years..
Every experience I've had with Apple support (and I've had a few) has been a pleasure. Be it Mac or phone related, they've bent over backwards to work with and accommodate me, and they've done this long before it was a free service (and not charging me for being out of warranty when they used to charge).

Sounds like you've started this thread just to vent your frustration. I wonder if you were as patient dealing with them as you've been eager to denounce them.

All the best,

Buying anything Apple without an Apple store nearby is asking for what you got. I buy a new phone every year <$200.
find it interesting that the OP doesnt mention what kind of issue he is having with the phone ?

could it be user error ?

or is there really not a problem with the phone at all ?
Riley   Why would I waste this time trying to get some answers to my service issues if there wasn't a problem ???   The speaker phone doesn't work properly .....It is distorted to the listener......It would be very easy to return for service, but I can't get anyone to tell me where to send it.....I bought this phone from the Apple store on line on 7-12-21.....I have spent money to activate it which I will lose, I will have to do all this over again it I can ever get it repaired ......My attitude is getting bad because I'm not getting anywhere and I need this phone to work......All of this is simple if someone at Apple would tell me what to do with this worthless phone.....Apple doesn't care about you or me, its all about the money and nothing else.....I will probably throw this phone in the trash before I can get anyone to fix it and I'm not sure that won't be the best thing.......Thanks
