Customer care charge $19

I'm sakin about my iphone 4s coz it's battery wint last that much. Which is 2 to 3 hrs 3G and the customer discuss if they going to teach me I need to pay for $19 this is ridiculious guys ...

Thanks for taking the time to respond Mike,
This is an interesting take on the situation.
I do not consider 5 years as an acceptable life span for a machine which cost close to 200 GBP, was made by a highly reputable manufacturer and has been well looked after. 0 perha
ps.
If this is the case, then at the moment of sale the customer should be advised of the limited life span.
I have not the skills, the material, the time nor the inclanation to take the machine apart myself, even if a suitable new battery could be found.
I agree with you that the cost of repair is likely to exceed the cost of replacement.
I shall continue to use the machine for as long as I am able (despite its short autonomy) and will look to Creative's competitors when I eventually replace it.

Iphone 6 compatibility with belkin car charges and cables

Hey
upon reading stories of certain car charges not working with the iphone 6 i want to find out if either of these 2 car charges and cables from belkin will charge my iphone 6.
In theory the 12v 2.4amp charger should charge my phone up faster than the rest however the iphone 6 is not listed in compatible devices, strangely neither is it listed on the 10w 2.1amp version of this product.
Am i missing some sort of trick here? the only thing i can think of is that the iphone 6 has a list of compatible devices or (certified) and will not allow connection with either of these belkin devices.
here is the 12v 2.4 charger http://www.belkin.com/uk/F8J121-Belkin/p/P-F8J121/
Here is the 10w 2.1amp charger http://www.belkin.com/uk/F8J078/p/P-F8J078/
What exactly is the problem with using either of these? isnt it the same lightening connection as the iphone 5?

Belkin probably just hasn't updated the page yet. Give them a call or contact their customer support. Note that the maximum current an iPhone will draw from a USB adapter is 1 amp (5 watts) whether the adapter can supply 1 amp, 2 amps, or 100 amps. So it won't charge any faster than a 1 amp adapter. An iPad can use up to 2.1 amps.

How can I better influence Customer Care to cover the known defective NVidia 8600 processor in my MBP which is just over 4 yr old?!

I have an 11/2007 MBP... 4 yrs, 2 months and 3 weeks old tomorrow. Yesterday I got the "black screen of death".
I won't bore you with what I tried, but today a local expert assessed the situation: reset SMC and PRAM, noted that it booted into target disc mode and would screen share, in other words, he proved it was one of the known MBP's of this genre (15", 2.4/2.2GHz) to have a defective NVIDIA 8600 graphics processor. I called the recommended local Apple Authorized repair facility only to be told that, while these WERE being repaired at no charge, out of warranty, it had been discoved that, OMG they were repairing a WHOLE BUNCH of them and a time limit had been imposed and there were no longer being repaired after they reached four years from purchase date.
WHY WAS THERE NOT A RECALL? WHY WAS NO ONE EVER NOTIFIED OF THIS DEFECT? And why am I just SOL because my computer chose to work an extra two months and eighteen days?
I plowed through the "you don't have phone service" with battering ram efficiency this evening, past the Apple care agent, his supervisor, and to "Customer Care" with whom I will be speaking again tomorrow. I have told them I "EXPECT" a "customer satisfaction code" which will provide me with a free repair. I have armed myself with the absolutely outrageous information that Apple, after booting NVidia out three years ago (one guesses after the rotten graphics bit) is welcoming them BACK this spring - Oh, so ANOTHER generation of MBPro users can get screwed?
I sure could use some help here when I need another argument! Does anyone know the magic language to induce Apple to behave in an Apple-like manner concerning this matter?

Their is no "magic language". The 4 years has passed and you have nothing to argue about: http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2377. Apple owes you nothing anymore regarding the out of warranty repair on your mac. How long do you expect them to repair this for? 7 years, 10 years?

I hate to say - DISATISFIED WITH with CUSTOMER CARE RESPONSE and VERIZON in all for first time.

I am currently on National 900 plan on Motorola Droid. I switched from AT&T primarily because I love to use data on mobile. Verizon provided me the unlimited plan. I was a very happy customer with Verizon untill now.
Scenario -
Today, I called up Verizon customer care executive to see why bill for the month was not readjusted. Can anyone believe it its staggering $1137.73 [Roaming charges 1019.19].
Since this January, I am visiting to Canada. On first visit in January, I called up customer care to see what options I do have to use my phone in Canada as I use it in US. Verizon had a wonderful plan - just the monthly data plan is escalated appear. 30-40$ extra than the normal appear. 29.99$ plan. I happily added that plan before visiting Canada. While there is Canada, I did get notification couple of time that I am exceeding data limit but again checked with customer care later - they readjusted the bill as that was 'FALSE ALERT' as I was on unlimited data plan while roaming as well in Canada since I paid the additional prorated of (30-40$) for period of my stay there.
This equation worked for first and second visit - Unlimited Data while I used to get FALSE ALERT.
On my third visit , things changed - Verizon stopped providing the unlimited data services. I called up as usual before this visit. Customer care executive said - you are set to go to Canada now. I was not very specifically told on call that the rules have changed now and there is limit to data usage while roaming. During this visit also, I got the alerts - I assumed this was also a FALSE ALERT like prior one.
But this time, it was not FALSE ALERT, now I charged with this fee. I raised my concern and called up customer care appear. 10 day before [today is March 6th], they assured me that it is going to be re-adjusted ONLY for this time. And, they also asked to check account after 48 hours and if not readjusted please call. But, I checked my account today and it was not readjusted. So, I called up customer care executive for half an hour -- not willing to listen to any logic of mine and he said politely 'SIR, WE CANNOT READJUST YOUR BILL' . I am still trying to figure out where is my fault when I was not told DATA PLAN HAS CHANGED FROM THIS VISIT.
I hope senior management will look into this matter and re-adjust current bill. It's due this March 10th. I would appreciate any positive response prior to this so that I can pay the bill and BE A HAPPY VERIZON CUSTOMER.
Sincerely,
Manoj K. [removed personal information]

I called them back yesterday night, not willing to listen my story. Sir we sent you SMS notifications. But these notifications, I also got when I had unlimited plans on first and second visit. Then customer care told SIR you don't need to worry - but this time I should have been very specifically told rules are changed before changing my plans which I wasn't. I was under impression that I am on same unlimited plans.
A job not well done in COMMUNICATING TO CUSTOMERS and using that an opportunity to OVERCHARGE $1100 - INSANE for one month bill. None of my fault. SMS notification is no communication as earlier SMS noitification were false positive and bills were adjusted as I was on unlimited data plan.
Now you change the rules and send SMS Notification; RULE CHANGE, one is not aware of.. ANY NORMAL person will treat SMS notification as FALSE ALERT.. isn't it??

Customer Care and some goodwill wanted please

Basically, my parents were a victim of last Novembers Cumbrian floods and have been in a caravan since then whilst the repairs are ongoing. They are in their 70s and 80s.
Whilst flooded out they have been unable to physically connect to their BT broadband package due to
1. no electric in the flooded property and
2. various other diverse factors too complex to explain.
At the time of the floods they were about 8 months into an 18 month BB contract. The 18 months is up in October.
I have been in touch with Billing twice (on their behalf) with a suggestion that the BB is "suspended" until they get back in, after which it will resume.
However, the operatives I have talked to have their standard procedures, and if we want to, we can claim our £xx per month BB costs off the insurance.
In the grand scheme of things, £xx is a very small amount, and making this extra claim seems petty, as it is.
However, it is irking that we are paying for a service and due to circumstances beyond our control, we are getting nothing for it. Obviously this is not BTs fault - they are providing the service, it's just that we are unable to take advantage of it.
They phoned yesterday and put the £25 BB disconnection process into action.
I'm now looking for someone at BT with a sense of compassion
It would be really nice if someone at BT has the power and could say, OK, we've checked the records and we can see they haven't logged in since 20 November 09 and what we'll do is give you an appropriate amount of time on Broadband without charge, just as a gesture of GOODWILL, seeing as how BT like to purport themselves as a "CARING" company, and how we would like you to continue with us when your extended usage period ends.
I hope I find such a BT person here on these BT Care forums.
Any further information you require, especially the customer concerned, please let me know and I will supply.
Thank you for reading.

Hi Flooded_Out,
As you said yourself these circumstances are really beyond BT's control. Its not really a matter of compassion or customer care but of practicality. Insurance exists for reasons such this.
BT use our Customer Guarantee Scheme to ensure that any credits applied to accounts are given out when required and the conditions are applied equally to all our customers. Whilst I sympathise with your parents position I wont be able to offer a refund.
Sorry about that. However, personally, if I was entitled to money under an insurance scheme, no matter how small the amount, I would certainly claim and would advise you do the same
Cheers

Customer care moving to outright ignoring people

Hi everyone,
I just wanted to highlight the tip of the iceberg, the straw that broke the camels back. After 2 weeks with BT and the abysymal cusotmer service experience, I think we will be moving elsewhere.
As its the middle of my work day, I was busy on a conference call to talk to BT. So to try to be more efficient, I used the BT chat system to do two things at once. All I wanted to do was upgrade my package. Instead the BT agent decided it would be good to call my home number and try to persuade our live in carer (no less than three times) that even though I said I was on a call already, he should speak to me.
Chat start Question "Hi I would like to change form the 7.50 TV essential package to the £10 TV pacakage. But id like to know will I keep the 2.50/month TVdiscount if i do?"
Chat log; **Edited**
This is another long line in BTs customer care screwups over the past 12 days we have been customers. Highlights include;
- Sent an engineer on a multiroom install with only one box and no instructions for multiroom. After much heated phone calls, eventuall agreed to post us a multi room box
- When that box went missing, you were trying to tell us our remote batteries were to blame for that box being missing in the post (later determined lost by courier)
- Trying to bill us £198 for the replacement multiroom box, then arguing that as we has two boxes, we should pay 2x£99 (groan). You then agreed to refund £99 and said sorry it was an oversight, but then didnt actually action that and went ahead and billed us some £240 in one off charges.
very poor. absolutely terrible cusotmer service. theres no care and your agents do what they want.

Hi Leanne,
Very sorry for the rubbish service that you have received so far.
I'd very much like to help you so if you wouldn't mind sending me your details over a PM then I will get you sorted.

Customer Care Pro Department: Fact or Fiction

Is this a real dept at Verizon?
Here is my story:
So my daughter’s iPhone 4 was stolen. I did online chat and
visited a store and received conflicting information regarding replacing the
phone. I decided to call customer care to see if I could get a definitive
answer and honestly maybe a courtesy service (i.e. extend my current contract
for an additional two years or use an existing $300 promotional credit I have on
one of my lines toward the non 4g iPhone 4). Basically, I did nothing but waste
my time.
When I called customer care and sat on hold for 5 minutes or
more, I explained my entire situation to the rep that answered. She offered all
the standard options of buy a new phone at full retail, buy a phone from ebay,
buy a $300 certified pre-owned iPhone, etc… I explained that none of those
really sounded good to me and I wanted to know if there were possibly any other
options. She said she could not do anything but would transfer me to someone
who could. On hold again, then explained to another young lady the entire
situation all over again. She said something could be worked out but it had to
be handled by another dept and she would transfer me. CLICK and then I here an automated
voice asking for my 10 digit number which I entered. Pressed whatever digit was
appropriate and got the “Sorry this dept is closed” message. Frustrated, I call
back and wait through the holding period again, explain what just happened and
ask to be transferred. I am told there is no need for that, “Just tell me what
is going on so I can get a good understanding.” AGAIN I tell the whole story
and we review the options and she says “Well, let me put you on hold and see
what I can do.” She never comes back. I hung up after 45min.
Following morning (today) I live chat and ask for a different
number than 800-922-0204 but apparently no other one exists. Call back, another
holding period, explain EVERYTHING AGAIN, reviewed the standard options, and
finally was told that I would be transferred to the “customer care pro dept”
(finally got the name of this magical place). So of course I explain it all again.
I even mention how the very first person I contacted (via chat) said that I
should insure the phone since it is open enrollment. “Just be sure you don’t
file your claim on the same call “ (the live chat person really included the winky face).
The customer care pro said that definitely should not have been advised and apologized
for that and all of the other misinformation that I had received but unfortunately, the standard
options are my only options. I begged and pleaded for some type of exception or
courtesy but got absolutely nothing.
I then offered to purchase a tablet since I am in the market for
one anyway. I understood that I would have to pay full price for the tablet and
place it on the existing line of the stolen phone and change that monthly
access from $40 to $10. Then I could activate a new line and get the two year
contract price on one of the iPhones with $40 monthly access. If I were to do
this, all I ask is that the activation fee be waived. “That is a standard fee
that can’t be waived.” I asked if the upgrade fee was standard and was told yes
but it was not something I was being charged. I then explained that I have had
that fee waived before and she responded “You can’t expect that every time and
what I meant was I am not going to waive it.”
And that was the straw… I will be checking into moving all of my
lines to another carrier especially since they are now offering rebates to
cover early termination fees.
Sad thing is Verizon didn’t technically do anything wrong other
than suggesting I commit insurance fraud and mention offers that are not
generally available unless you get the right person to authorize it. Their
customer service is just going down the drain.

No, here's the thing. You DO get to post your rant on the forums. However, others get to post their opinions, too, which might not agree with yours.
You might not think that you posted with a sense of entitlement, but let me point out where you did.
You asked for an exception. You didn't get it. You stated that "Basically, I did nothing but waste my time.', which implies that you were entitled to what you asked for.
Then you stated " I have had that fee waived before" (which likely is inaccurate because the upgrade fee is new). And again, your request was denied to which you posted, "And that was the straw… I will be checking into moving all of my lines to another carrier " No sense of entitlement there??
Verizon used to allow customers to "stack contracts", (ie enter into a new one before the old one was done and roll the old one into the new one) but they don't anymore. But this resulted in people having longer and longer contract obligations which they then complained about as well.
Here's my two cents on things that YOU could have done to avoid this.
1. Have insurance on the phone. Whether that be through Verizon/Asurion, or home owner's insurance, or some third party such as Square Trade. Or accept the responsibility for not having insurance which means that if the phone is lost or stolen or damaged, the user will have to take care of it out of pocket. Taking responsibility for oneself.
2. You could have gotten one of the Certified Pre-Owned Devices that the rep was offering.
3. You could have purchased a used device from a third party.
4. You could have purchased the tablet as you described and added another line WITHOUT expecting the fees to be waived.
I get it that you are frustrated, but some of it seems to be misplaced.
And I get frustrated when people post their angry posts simply because their unreasonable requests/demands don't get filled. People, in my opinion, should be reasonable and responsible which means (again in my opinion) fulfilling the contracts into which they voluntarily enter under the terms to which they agreed without expecting waivers or exceptions.

Customer care

I have been a BT customer for over 20 years-I have spent over 24hours on the phone during July trying to resolve a line problem-the customer care & support has been terrible, people not taking ownership of their actions,being put on hold & then being cut off, no phonebacks, no email, engineer appointments not kept. I even offered to pay a fee of £125.00 to get my phone issued revised,later told no charge as a goodwill gesture & then they take £125.00 from my bank account, no apologies- took me another 1 hour plus to resolve that one.
My difficulty is that BT put the phone feed line is into my garage & another cable went from the garage to my house- this failed in June & I have no phone or broadband in my house, all I have ever wanted was to have a working phone in the house. One BT staff member told me, there is no issue as the phone line works in the garage-I asked how she would like to sit in a garage to use the phone, use broadband & watch bt vision. I am disabled & in poor health, live in a rural village & have relied on a phone in my bedroom to contact GP or family if I am unwell- still I should be alright, as the phone works in the garage.

If you are not interested in helping me, then please let me know, so that I should go to some local vendor to get this fixed. This is becoming the ridicules experience with Lenovo.

No one is even bothered to send an email or to call me to resolve this issue. You guys can easily call me and help me download the ROM for Lenovo S820 Row and guide me to install the OS on my phone, but you are not doing that at all.
It's been almost 10 days since my phone is off and my work is hampering due to this, but no one is bothered to take lead and fix this issue.
I am really disappointed from Lenovo because of the customer service I have received and would avoid buying any Lenovo Products in future. I would rather like to go with a company who provides good service to there customers when they need it, instead of just ignoring their problems and issues.

Dear Mr. Ghosh,
I used to be the loyal Fan of Lenovo products till today. I have two Lenovo Laptops and 3 Lenovo phones within my family, as I used to love Lenovo products.
But today all my views about Lenovo changed because of one HCL guy Paramjeet (55004428). This guy gave me such a worst experience of my life when it came to customer service of Lenovo, that I am no longer a fan of Lenovo products.
The issue was simple, my android OS got corrupted and my phone's warranty will be going to expire on December 22, 2014. So I went to your customer service hoping to get the OS reinstall and start working with my phone. But this guy simply said NO to me as there was a slight crack on my screen. He said my warranty is now void as there is a crack in my screen and I will not get any support on this until or unless I do not spend 8000 Rs to change the screen first. When I asked him to give me this thing in written, he denied saying that I am not going to give you anything in written. The guy was extremely rude. I did not ask him to change the screen under warranty, All I asked was to restore my OS. Further, my phone charger (not working) which has got nothing to do with a crack on the screen of phone. He said that the warranty is expired for it as well.
I thought that Lenovo was a respected company who actually cares for it's customer, but I know that Lenovo is just another company who simply treat it's customers nice only till the product is not sold. Once the product is sold nobody gives a **bleep** about the customers.
Today I realized that there is no difference between the customer service of phone company like Micromax and a big and trusted brand like Lenovo.
I really do not know what action you will take on this, but if this is the level of customer service provided by Lenovo, then that day is not far when your customer will start moving to another competitor.

Malwinder Singh
And this time, its been more then 8 days since my last email and more than 15 days since Ireceived any call or email from Lenovo Customer care and no one is even bothered to reply.

Dear Mr. Ghosh,
I used to be the loyal Fan of Lenovo products till today. I have two Lenovo Laptops and 3 Lenovo phones within my family, as I used to love Lenovo products.
But today all my views about Lenovo changed because of one HCL guy Paramjeet (55004428). This guy gave me such a worst experience of my life when it came to customer service of Lenovo, that I am no longer a fan of Lenovo products.
The issue was simple, my android OS got corrupted and my phone's warranty will be going to expire on December 22, 2014. So I went to your customer service hoping to get the OS reinstall and start working with my phone. But this guy simply said NO to me as there was a slight crack on my screen. He said my warranty is now void as there is a crack in my screen and I will not get any support on this until or unless I do not spend 8000 Rs to change the screen first. When I asked him to give me this thing in written, he denied saying that I am not going to give you anything in written. The guy was extremely rude. I did not ask him to change the screen under warranty, All I asked was to restore my OS. Further, my phone charger (not working) which has got nothing to do with a crack on the screen of phone. He said that the warranty is expired for it as well.
I thought that Lenovo was a respected company who actually cares for it's customer, but I know that Lenovo is just another company who simply treat it's customers nice only till the product is not sold. Once the product is sold nobody gives a **bleep** about the customers.
Today I realized that there is no difference between the customer service of phone company like Micromax and a big and trusted brand like Lenovo.
I really do not know what action you will take on this, but if this is the level of customer service provided by Lenovo, then that day is not far when your customer will start moving to another competitor.
Regards,
Malwinder Singh
And this time, its been more then 8 days since my last email and more than 15 days since Ireceived any call or email from Lenovo Customer care and no one is even bothered to reply.

Malwinder

BT customer care say they wont give me a full refu...

Hi all most of you all ready know that BT customer care don't care well hears my story.......
Back in August 2011 because of my poor broad band speeds, I was on the old 8 Meg package and their sales department suggested that I would be better off changing to their 16 Meg package as I would be guaranteed a minimum speed of 10 Meg up to 16 Meg, so I took their advice and up graded and sat back and waited to fly around the internet and play games without getting lagged out, but sadly the speed problem still existed and I complained again and again then the tec department said its a hard wire fault then it was a profile problem and they will fix it, but it never got better so I complained again and was told I was getting the correct speed for the package I was on, I tried complaining again but was told their was nothing they could do as I was getting the correct speed for my package, so I just had to put up with it as BT is the only provider in my area.
Then just after this Christmas the problems got worse and I complained again AND FINALLY GOT HOLD OF A TEC GUY WHO FOUND OUT WHAT WAS WRONG, ALTHOUGH BT WAS CHARGING ME FOR A 16 MEG PACKAGE I WAS STILL ON MY OLD 8 MEG PACKAGE HE SAID I WAS NEVER CHANGED OVER TO THE 16 MEG PACKAGE ??.
Well an engineer was sent out to check my connections at home he found no faults and said he will now check the exchange and the next day i had a speed of 16 Meg yes at last.
So next move I contacted the billing department for what I thought would be an easy refund for the over payments but was told to my dismay they could only give me a refund for the last hundred days billing WHAT!! BT have admitted that I was not getting the service I was paying for it was their fault but wont pay me back in full??? ombudsman here I come and trading standards and even my local radio station will like to hear about this and I wont be giving up until I get a full refund this treatment to customers is despicable and I will do every thing in my power to make BT pay up.

Car charging (12V) to Macbook Pro Magsafe 2

There seems to be numerous discussions (all of them old) about the best way to charge a new Macbook pro (2013 onwards) with magsafe 2 (T connector) in a car. However I cant seem to find the definitive answer or an up to date one.
Have a client that needs to supply all sales reps with compatible car chargers to their Macbook Pro using the cigarette lighter (12V)
Seems many of them on the market cant cope with the draw of the 85W that the power supply needs.
I have seen a few available like this one
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Magnetic-In-Car-Charger-MacBook-Display/dp/B00BJ97H7A#cu stomerReviews
or this one
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B009G1B22O/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creat ive=390957&creativeASIN=B009G1B22O&linkCode=as2&tag=jun0e-20&linkId=DOQ7Q332W25D IHND
The first one looks the best but I was wondering if anyone has experience of these or a better way to do this . There is talk of noisy 150W invertors etc but I am looking for a good solution.
P>S this is for the UK market
thanks

new Macbook pro (2013 onwards)
However I cant seem to find the definitive answer or an up to date one.
If the MBPs are still under warranty and/or have AppleCare, call them. The reps there should be able to advise you.
Or call Apple Customer Relations - 1-800-275-2273 (Sorry I do not know the UK number). Ask politely & firmly that you want to be transferred to Customer Relations. Tell them exactly what you stated in your post.
GOOD LUCK!

Customer Care the Creative Labs way.

Customer Care the Creative Labs way.The key phrases here are:we appreciate the opportunity to assist you. If you still require assistance, please reply to this email? To cut a long story short..I have a Creative Labs portable MP3 player (a Zen Sleek 20 Gb) which requires a new battery. The machine was bought new, has been well looked after and is otherwise in perfect working order. Although the machine is just 5 years old Creative say they no longer provide any after sales support for it and, although not in so many words, advise me that my only option is to replace it. Dear Marc,
For this issue, I do apologize but please understand that we no longer have any spare parts for the player like the battery to be able to offer repair serivces.
We have discontinued manufacturing parts for the player for more than 2
years now and without parts, we cannot offer any type of repairs.
If it were available, we would have offered you the repair service in
the first place. What good would it be for us to decline you of repair
options.
Do what you think is right abd proper but like I said and as what my
colleagues informed you previously, we no longer have any repair options
for the Zen Sleek player.
Regards,
xxxxxxx

Thanks for getting back to me so quickly xxxxxxx.
Creative designed (and sold) the machine with a built-in battery.
Creative's engineer's and product designer's know that rechargeable
batteries have a finite and rather short life-span. Much shorter than
the life span of the Zen Sleek 20 Gb as a whole.
I am not prepared to throw this machine away and buy a replacement when
all it needs is a new battery.
Unless Creative would like this entire correspondence to be posted on
relevant consumer web sites, such as anythingbutipod.com I suggest you
get back to me with an appropriate solution.
kind regards,
Marc

Thanks xxxxxxx,
In the case of the player in question, I still believe the battery
needs to be changed. THis is normal given the age of the player and the
amount of use it has had.
What are my solutions for achieving this?
I have always believed that Creative is not the sort of company which
lets its customers down when it comes to afer sales support.
As I have said previously, the machine is in perfect condition and is
only around 5 or 6 years old. It was a very high spec machine when I
bought it and I have neither the money nor the inclination to change
it.
Could you please advise as to how I can replace the battery, and not
refer me to any other parts of your web site.
Thanks in advance,

Thanks for your response xxxxxxx,
What would you suggest? That I throw the machine away and buy a new one?
This player is still functioning perfectly. It never skips, rarely freezes and is generally in excellent condition.
All the interfaces, charge leads work perfectly. It deli'vers excellent sound quality.
As a result of being charged a great number of times, the battery no longer holds as much charge as it did when new. The player's autonomy has decreased sharply as a result and, unless I am able to charge it every 2-3 hours or so, I cannot use it.
The player is not that old, no more than 5 or 6 years.
Surely there must be some solution for prolonging its useful life.
I will leave it with you to make inquiries within the Creative Labs structures.
Thanks

Marc

The battery in my Zen Sleek 20 GB MP3 player needs replacing. It is not accessible to the user. What are my options for replacing it's How long will this take? and what is the cost? Many thanks, regards, Marc

Thanks for taking the time to respond Mike,
This is an interesting take on the situation.
I do not consider 5 years as an acceptable life span for a machine which cost close to 200 GBP, was made by a highly reputable manufacturer and has been well looked after. 0 perha
ps.
If this is the case, then at the moment of sale the customer should be advised of the limited life span.
I have not the skills, the material, the time nor the inclanation to take the machine apart myself, even if a suitable new battery could be found.
I agree with you that the cost of repair is likely to exceed the cost of replacement.
I shall continue to use the machine for as long as I am able (despite its short autonomy) and will look to Creative's competitors when I eventually replace it.

I dont get it? After calling vzw customer care

I have a quick queston, i thought the concept through this whole thing was for your cc to get charged when the item is SHIPPED. My credit card was charged but no tracking number available. After calling customer care they said it will be shipped on the 10th get here on the 11th. Weird, jw why they would charge my card now?

because if your card was denied someone else can have your phone.

Customer care charge $19
