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 ??

I've used Apple products for over 15 years now (since the iNtel switch) and have never even come close to having an issue getting something repaired or replaced.

If you bought a phone that doesn’t work send it back. If you bought it from someone with no returns…what did we learn?
Apple sucks, buy a Samsung Android phone....I've owned Apple iPhones, and they all have had issues. They are difficult to use with usb storage media without buying additiinal proprietary Apple gadgets to make it work. The battery life also sucks, and the screens constantly Crack and shatter...no issues with the android phones I've had.
