Bad advice from Nokia UK may have invalidated warr...

I purchased my Lumia 900 from Britain on 8 June 2012.
Returning to London briefly in May this year, the phone began continuously rebooting. The Nokia Care agency in East London confirmed that the phone was covered by warranty and sent the phone for initial assessment.
But even after a full reset, the phone was unrepairable. They suggested it could be a motherboard problem and would now need to send it to higher level service for resolution. However this process could take two to three weeks and I was only in Britain for 10 days. They said they could not send the phone on, and it would have to be physically collected from them.
They said to take the phone and contact the Nokia Customer Services through UK Call Centre to get advice on my options in view of my circumstances.
I  called Nokia Customer Services and explained the situation and was advised that they could not accept a collection/return from an address in Britain unless it was to be returned to the same address. They instructed me instead to take the phone back to New Zealand and pursue the warranty claim process through the local Nokia agency.
All these actions are documented.
When I got back to New Zealand five weeks later, it appears that a. the warranty had expired in the meantime, and that b. Nokia NZ could not help as it was only covered in the UK.
At no time was I informed that the phone:
would not be covered by warranty from within New Zealand, or
that the warranty expiry date was only 10 days or so away on 8 June. (I did not know this myself until I returned to New Zealand. 
Having been a loyal customer of Nokia over the years I feel I have been cheated out of my legitimate warranty claim through poor support and bad advice.
Solved!

Thankfully this issue may now be resolved thanks to good engagement and consideration by case manager Art at Nokia NZ. He has agreed that the warranty should be honoured in the circumstances and has authorised repair. Good news.

  • Bad response from nokia care

    My phone's audio is not working and ..they aren't rectifying it...pls nokia if u r listening then do the needful

    Hi, Rupesh_30. Apologies for the service you have received. Let's try to help you on this one. For which phone is this? When you said that your "phone's audio is not working", are you not able to hear anything on the phone when engaged in a call? Is the behavior the same when streaming/listening to music or videos? How about when the phone is set to loudspeaker or when a headset is connected to it? If the issue you have is not the one I mentioned, please let us know then the exact issue you have, so we can further help.
    Have you tried sending the phone to a Care Center and have it inspected? If yes, this was where you get a "bad response". Is this right? Aside from not rectifying the issue, what did they inform you about this?
    Hope to hear from you soon.

  • Can't boot from OSX and may have a virus

    I'm having a similar problem as Davo21 in "computer won't boot up in os x". After running Norton System Works to try to resolve an issue that I was having with my computer, I'm getting a message, "/etc/master.passwd:not a directory" on a black screen when I try to start up.
    It started in early December after I downloaded some stuff off the internet and it seemed like I might have picked up a virus. I know, that's not supposed to happen with OSX, but my computer started doing wierd things like switching out icons for whole types of files - i.e., .wav files would show up with a totally different icon. Restarting solved that problem, but I noticed that on both my wife's and my computer (both Macs - hers a Single core Intel Mini running OSX 10.4 and mine a G3 700MHz running 10.3.9) the internet was running exceptionally slow, while on my work computer (a Dell PC running Windows XP) it was running just fine. All three computers are networked, so I surmised that something was affecting the Unix system but not the Windows, but when I ran Norton Anti-virus, it came up clean. More wierd things kept happening, so last week I decided to run Norton Disk Doctor and it changed thousands of directory settings and now my computer won't boot up from my main boot drive with OSX 10.3.9. I've run the Disk Utilities on the 10.3 Install Disk and I've run Disk Warrior and they both say that the boot drive is repaired, but I still get the same message when I try to start up normally.
    I have several partitions on my original drive and several more on the additional 240GB hard drive that I installed a couple of years ago, so I can boot up from an old copy of OSX 10.2 on another partition. The latest wierd thing is that now one of my other partitions on the original hard drive won't mount.
    My questions are:
    1) How do I get back to being able to boot from OSX 10.3?
    2) Where can I get help to figure out what's going on with my computer and how to remedy it?
    I've been looking at some of the information on the Leap-A malware and it seems like there are some similarities, however I'm running OSX 10.3.9 and not 10.4.
    Any suggestions would be appreciated.
    Thanks,

    G4 700MHz   Mac OS X (10.3.9)  

    DMcSantaFe,
    as was said before Norton Utilities and Disk Doctor were discontinued almost 3 years ago (for some very good reasons!). It caused much more trouble than it solved.
    Here are the articles:
    Symantec discontinues Mac Norton Utilities, SystemWorks
    Norton Utilities, SystemWorks development halted
    TMO Scoop - Symantec Confirms Norton Utilities & SystemWorks' Demise [Updated]
    Tech Tool Pro and DiskWarrior are presently the most reliable utilities. For more information on regular housekeeping read this: MacOS X 10.3/10.4: System maintenance
    Unfortunately Norton usually damages the file system beyond repair. The only cure is a reinstall.

  • Helping my Mom rebuild.. Would appreciate advice from the Credit Masters :)

    Greetings everybody!  I am posting here to try and get some advice from people who may have been in our shoes, or from those who know a lot about credit and how it works. I am helping my mom rebuild her credit, let me provide some backstory. My mom used to have amazing credit (800+ FICO). Around 2006, my parents divorced. At that time, they had a mortgage through Chase for our old home. IIRC, the mortgage was in my mother's name with my father as secondary (my mom's amazing credit was how they got the mortgage). The court ordered that the mortgage was to become 100% of my father's responsibility, payments and all. My dad was to pay the mortgage, and my mother and I were to list the house for sale and move out. Well, to be blunt - my dad was a jack*** and was purposely 30-90 days late on multiple payments. Even though my dad was legally responsible for payments, my mom's name was attached to the mortage. I'm sure you see where I'm going with this... her amazing credit crumbled down to a 445 FICO. Yikes. My mom knew she needed to rebuild. She desperately needed a car as ours was mysteriously sabotaged... So she purchased a used 2003 Ford in early 2006. The interest rate wasn't pretty.. 24.3% through Americredit (AKA GM Financial). She knew she would get shafted until she rebuilt, so she bit the bulllet and took it. We paid that loan off 2 years or so early sometime around 2008. Around 2010 or so, we fought the credit bureaus and were able to wipe all of the late payment marks my dad did on the mortgage off of her credit reports.  We've slowly been building ever since. We were doing great. Around 2013, her FICO was around 715, with individual bureaus reporting 690-725. Here is where things started to go slightly downhill. In late 2013, my mom became severely injured. She had multiple surgeries and was taken off of work for the remainder of the year.  In October 2013, she applied for a Barclaycard Visa via Apple and was approved for $1,500. My mom wasn't getting disability or anything like that, so we started doing the worst thing possible (but our only option)... living off of CCs. Her balances got sky high... but she consolidated them into a loan through her credit union in 2014. All CCs were paid off, we only had the loan. That was paid off too that year. That spring (2014), Barclaycard gave her an automatic CLI to $3000. Capital One gave her an auto CLI to $1500. Right as she went to go back to work, some post-surgery complications popped up and the doctors have had her off work ever since. We started living off the CCs again... balances got sky high, this time no money to consolidate. I will admit, I have made some very poor decisions in using store credit accounts to buy things. I never should have used them. We asked Barclay for a CLI a few months ago. They bumped us to $5300. Capital One gave us an automatic CLI to $2500. Here are our current stats: Barclaycard (opened 10/2013): Credit limit of $5300 - balance of $5100.Capital One (opened 11/2002): Credit limit of $2500 - balance of $1900Best Buy Store (opened approx. 2011): Credit limit of $1500 - balance of $2050 (over limit)Dell (opened December 2014): Credit limit of $1500 - current balance of $990.Credit Union loan (unsecured): Was originally $3k - now at $910. Will be paid off by December. Total balances: Roughly $10,950 or so. Credit utilization: 87%6 inquiries100% ontime paymentsOldest acct. is 13 1/2 years CreditKarma reports: TU: 659 (as of 8/9)EQ: 673 (as of 8/9)EX: Unknown FICO score via Barclaycard is reported at 687. Capital One reports TransUnion as 688 via their "Credit Tracker." My mom is FINALLY getting disability (don't ask, I can best describe it as beauacracy BS - SSI was reported to be nearly 1M cases behind). She will be getting a lump sum to makeup for the past few years plus around $1.3k monthly. I am still in high school, preparing to graduate next year. However, I am working two jobs. I have $1k a month to throw in and help wrangle debt. My mom has been making typical payments of $100 to Capital One and $250-300 to Barclay, as they are higher interest. Cap. One is 12% interest, Barclay is 18.9%. She plans on paying off and closing Dell by October. It's useless at 30% APR. She is paying off her bank loan too entirely by Ocrtober as well. She will be sending her normal payments to Cap. one and Barclay, with somewhere around $100-200 to Best Buy.  I want to send $1000 to Capital One this month, that will take it to around $800. Afterwards, I want to keep sending my entire $1k/mo. to Barclay and get that paid off ASAP, as it is accrueing 18% interest. In a perfect world, all of her major CCs (Capital One + Barclay) would be both paid off or at under 25% utilization by Turkey Day. After we are paid off, we plan on either locking our cards up or shredding them and only using them via Apple Pay, as they should be for emergencies only. We want to build up a rainy day fund in a savings account that pays interest as well, so we can avoid the CCs altogether. I would like some advice on my plan to pay our cards off. I really want to get my mom out of debt. I was wanting to lease a car before winter hit us in Ohio. Her car does horrible MPG (~10 MPG). I wanted to lease a Subaru Legacy. The lease would be in her name, with me paying for it. However, that ain't going to happen until the credit utilization is WAY down (under 30% in my mind) and credit scores are 700+, as I read somewhere around here 700+ is Tier 1 for Subaru Finance (Chase). 
    If the two of us can pay as much money as possible, we would hope to be able to have much lower balances by late November. I would appreciate any advice.  Looking forward to a debt-free future for my Mom and I... and staying that way (no friviolous purchases, etc.). Thanks for the help. WH

    So pay the Best Buy down under limit.  They will likely add the over limit amount to your minimum payment.Then payoff DellThen pay off the 18%  Barclay's.Then pay off the lower rate Cap 1. You are so lucky that it's only 11K and that you have never missed any payments.  This is a situation where your mom's scores can be 760 or more when these cards are paid down under 10%.  That's great. Since "life has happened" twice with your mom with unexpected medical things, and the fact that she will be living off of a small disability benefit, she should reduce her credit cards to the bear minimum.  Maybe one Visa/MC with a 2K limit, another card with a 1K limit and a store score like Walmart. You can call and have your credit limits decreased.  But do not do this until these accounts are paid off or her scores will plunge further due to higher utilization.  Your mom is so lucky to have you.  What a great kid you are to help.  You also just got a lesson that many of us take 10 or 20 years to learn and you haven't gotten your own credit card yet.  You will likely be a credit whiz.

  • In-Ear headset not from Nokia

    I have a Apple In-Ear headset which I cant use with my N9...

    How can I use a SCH-LC11 device in CHINA which bought from ebay. I am not Verizon customer but I prefer to using your 4G LTE Router . How can I get the unlock code? The device may have a bad ESN but I only use it in CHINA. Kindly looking forward your reply. Thanks!

    It's good to read Antoniad's post.  It reassures me that I can use my new iPad as an international communication device which is the reason I purchased the thing.  However, I called Verizon today (my provider of cellular data) who told me that I can't just pop in a SIM card as you suggested.  He also said that he was from the "Pre-Pay" division of Verizon and he was certain that I couldn't do what I planned to do.  I was extremely disappointed as I had called Apple prior to buying the iPad and I read the algorhythm on the website for choosing an iPad before purchasing.  Those sources were quite specific and the information seemed clear.  I would be able to use my iPad to communicate through cellular connections while traveling on the road, literally, abroad.  I was told that I could pop in a data card wherever I was, just as you indicated in your message above, and voila I was good to go.  The Verizon rep definitively rained on that parade, but said that I might be able to do this if I have a "Post-Pay" account, a different area of Verizon.  I haven't had the chance to talk to this division yet, so I looked to Apple's Support for answers.  Maybe I will find out that I can use my iPad as an international communication device while traveling on the road afterall, however, it appears I may need a different type of account (Post-Pay), something I was never warned about. Can I switch to this kind of account?  I don't know.  I have to find out.  If you have any information about this issue, it would be good to share since I strongly suspect there are others who bought the iPad for the same purpose that I have.

  • I was trying to free up some memory on my hard drive and now I don't have an Itunes icon.  I may have deleted it from my applications.  How do I get it back.  I downloaded it but it says it was moved from my PDF, music is played on Quicktime player

    I was trying to free up some memory from my startup disk and I  may have accidently deleted the Itunes application.  I still  have a library if I go through finder. I can download Itunes but I'm not able to install it. All this and I still don't have enough space on my startup disk, but that's another whole question!
    If I play a tune,it comes through quicktime player.  What can I do?

    No, this should be the number one thing you are concerned about.
    Until you get this sorted, there is a good chance you may simply lose everything.
    Do you hav ean external drive?
    If so copy the entire /Music/iTunes/ folder to the external drive.
    Then you can delete /Music/iTunes/ empty the trash and recover this space.
    Do this then Apple menu > Software update.
    Restart the computer
    Then post back.

  • In iPad 1 ios 4 may have two ipad Apps the same from two accounts itunes

    In iPad 1 ios 4 may have two ipad Apps the same from two accounts itunes one free other paid account, hence one free App and another paid App the same App?

    If both accounts are authorised on your computer's iTunes (Store > Authorise This Computer) then you can download the books from both accounts to there (download the books from one account, then sign out of it via Store > Sign Out, log in with the other account via Store > Sign In and download the books from the other account), and sync them over to the iPad's iBooks app via the Books tab.
    Or you might be able to sign out of your account on the iPad by tapping on it Settings > Store and sign in with the other account and download the books from that account - I think that it should work, but it's not something that I've tried so I'm not 100% sure that it will

  • I may have deleted some system files from my computer due to my antivirus and now my imac won't start. Actually it does, and then there is a blank screeen with the apple logo and it shuts down right away. is tehre a possibility of recovering my files?

    Hello
    I was having some problems with my Imac, for a while it was slow and often disconneceted from my wifi, while this one worked perfectly (tested with other devices)
    I thoug i might have a virus, so i downloaded an antivirus (mac keeper) and started checking.
    I also did a scan of my computer using Console or something from the utilities, and then a folder popped witha  file I had canceled a while ago. I canceled the file and then my Imac continued to be slow.
    i then restarted my Imac, but when it started, the usual grey logo of Apple appeared, and then it shut down suddently.
    I tried to reboot it holding the command key and R but nothing, and then i tried holding the shift key and a bar appeared, and at half of the bar it sut itself down again.
    I think it is probably a preoblem because I may have cancelled some of the system files from a folder called "private" in the "documents" folder.
    Is there any way I can recover some of my files? maybe all of them? I hope so because I have some important files there
    Is this a thing I can do myself or do Ineed to go to a MacStore to repair it? Will I need to change HD or just to format it and reinstall? also if there is any way i can recover some of my files that would be great.
    Thanks
    Ludo
    P.S. problems appeared when i installed the Mavericks version.

    If MacKeeper corrupted the Recovery partition then even I underestimated its potential for damage. Garbage "cleaning" apps will cause misery but I have not found that the Recovery partition to have been affected by using MacKeeper or anything like it. I doubt that it did so, but I have learned not to underestimate the potential for such things to result in system corruption.
    Before concluding your Mac has a hardware failure, try booting OS X Internet Recovery by holding command option r on startup (three fingers). That will force your iMac to bypass the Recovery partition altogether, and convey the ability to create a new one.
    An Internet connection will be required (wired or wireless).
    At the Mac OS X Utilities screen, select Disk Utility. Select your startup volume (usually named "Macintosh HD") and click the Repair Disk button. Describe any errors it reports in red. If Disk Utility reports "The volume Macintosh HD appears to be OK" in green then you can be reasonably (though not completely) assured your hard disk is in good working order.
    Assuming the HD remains usable you can then use Disk Utility to erase it. Reinstall OS X, restore your essential software and other files, and don't reinstall the junk.

  • Hi, when I upload music into itunes from a cd it sometimes appears in itunes as two different albums and split up the music in 2 or even three albums....how can i merge these albums...this is particularly true when one album may have different composers?

    Hi, when I upload music into itunes from a cd it sometimes appears in itunes as two different albums and split up the music in 2 or even three albums....how can i merge these albums...this is particularly true when one album may have different composers?

    Generally setting a common Album title and Album Artist will fix things.
    For compilations that aren't, select all tracks, Get Info, and on the option tab set Part of a Compilation to No. If it already says No tick the box alongside, then click OK.
    For deeper problems see Grouping tracks into albums.

    Hi, My name is Bheki Yende
    I'm experiencing a problem with an app I've just purchased from iTunes, I have tried every piece of advice from the "iOS: Troubleshooting applications purchased from the App Store" and still nothing is working. I would like to get my refund on this pls.
    This is an inconvenience, I don't understand why I have to contact the developer for a faulty product in your store.
    I've paid iTunes to get this, so iTunes must fix this problem for me or give my money back.
    Thanks

    This is a user forum, you are not speaking to Apple here.
    You will need to contact iTunes support here, regarding this issue. They will usually respond within 24 hours.

  • SharePoint - Error_1_Error occurred in deployment step 'Add Solution': Timeout expired. The timeout period elapsed prior to obtaining a connection from the pool. This may have occurred because all pooled connections were in use and max pool size was rea

    Hi,
    I am Shanmugavel, SharePoint developer, 
    I am facing the below SharePoint 2013 deployment issue while deploying using VS2012.
    If i will deploy the same wsp or existing wsp
    (last build) using direct powershell deployment, the solution adding properly, but the same timeout exception coming while activation the features.  Please find the below error.
    I tried the below activists:
    1. Restarted my dev server, DB server. 
    2. tried the same solution id different server
    3. tried existing wsp file (last build version)
    4. Deactivated all the features, including project Active deployment configuration.... but still i am facing the same issue.
    I hope this is not coding level issue, because still my code is not start running, before that some problem coming.
    Please help me any one.....  Last two days i am struck because of this...

    What you need to understand is the installation of a WSP does not do much. It just makes sure that you relevant solution files are deployed to the SharePoint farm.
    Next comes the point when you activate the features. It is when the code which you have written to "Activate" certain features for your custom solution.
    Regarding the error you are getting, it typically means that you have more connections (default is I guess 100) open for a SQL database then you are allowed to.
    If you have a custom database and you are opening a connection, make sure you close it as well.
    Look at the similar discussion here:
    The timeout period elapsed prior to obtaining a connection from the pool. This may have occurred because all pooled connections were in use and max pool
    size was reached[^]
    I would suggest further to look at the
    ULS logs[^] to get better insight.

    Can anybody guide me?

    Hi Wendy Fu,
    Thanks for your feed back. I could see Microsoft.ReportViewer.ProcessingObjectModel.dll to add as reference to my project. Actually I can open generated rdlc in designer, at run time I get error. I could not make out where is the exact mistake out of three
    options flashed.
    The definition of this report is not valid or supported by this version of Reporting Services.
    The report definition may have been created with a later version of Reporting Services
    or contain content that is not well-formed or not valid based on Reporting Services schemas
    Details: Data at the root level is invalid
    My web config has following references
    <add assembly="Microsoft.ReportViewer.WebForms, Version=11.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=89845DCD8080CC91"/>
    <add assembly="Microsoft.ReportViewer.Common, Version=11.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=89845DCD8080CC91"/>
    May be I have to change these versions to 9 or 10.
    First I will try adding Microsoft.ReportViewer.ProcessingObjectModel.dll .
    Once thanks for your reply.

  • I accidentally got a virus on my iPhone and it may have gotten into the iCloud storage, how do I remove the virus OR how do I restore from a back-up that occurred before the virus infected the system?

    When I was browsing on Safari on my iPhone, I accidentally got an advertisement where you could not close it out unless you clicked on its pop-up screen. So I clicked yes (Looking back, I should've turned off my iPhone then immediately closed out the ad before it could load), then I closed out immediately. But then things went haywire as the Siri automatically went off without me pressing for it, then the music on the iPod part of my iPhone played randomly and got crazy. So I tried resetting the entire settings and restored at a previous point, but I want to be 100% sure the virus is completely gone. I fear it may have infected the iCloud storage and if I cannot completely wipe out the virus without removing any data that was stored prior to the incident, I want to be able to know how to restore from an older session before the incident happened.
    Can you please help me?

    If things seem to be going haywire with your phone, it seems that it MAY be a software issue.
    Now, that being said, that does not necessarily mean that it is a virus. Software issues do happen sometimes. It is probably just coincidence.
    What you need to do is restore the device using iTunes. This will fix any software issues. After you have done this, you can restore from an iCloud backup.
    iCloud does not back up the actual software, so no, the "virus" would not have gotten into the backups.
    The link below provides steps on restoring your device using iTunes as well as how to restore from an iCloud backup.

    Don't worry! Everything should be back to normal if you follow these steps.
