Not sure why you have posted this as a spoiler but at least it's legible.
I'm wondering if you have been sent a refurb by mistake!

i'm not sure why i posted a spoiler either im a total noob round here, i thought i'd been sent a refurb too and i did ask o2 customer services to which they replied absolutely not. The problem with that is once i could understand but two refurb replacements in a week also would they have any refurb Note 3's so soon?

its going back thats for sure, im on the phone now to customer services bcos i arranged for another doorstep exchange and when i check my o2 it showing as cancelled so i call them and theyre trying to tell me their system wont fulfill my order until they receive the phone back that the courier took today. thats BS bcos they did it before no problem when i had a faulty HTC one with gaps all over it. i didnt have to wait for that handset to reach back to O2. Not impressed with them lately, they **bleep** up yet they cant correct it without me waiting a week for the phone to get back to them, the courier will confirm they have it whats the problem?

Hi,
Hmmm... and hmmm... worth investigating for sure as I'd be concerned also if it was me.
In no particular order, you mentioned that your original/first GN3 had a display issue with the S-Pen. Perhaps it begs the question whether the display in fact had a fault or if the stylus did..? Doesn't help here I know, but worth considering at least.
As for the replacement handsets, I take it the labels on the original box were just a single sticker on each plain, i.e. 3 sole stickers..? My GN3 from CPW was just that (the left side of the box has no sticker). Refurb models/boxes aside, I just don't know if O2 take the original packaging and slap their own on there..? What's in the box..? Perhaps O2 remove something like the charger or headphones as part of their 'package'..? Actually, is it an O2-branded handset..? 'MAYBE' (due to stock issues) O2 have bought handsets in from other places (who had opened them) and O2 have slapped their labels on..? Is there an O2 logo on boot..? What CSC code is shown if you boot into recovery mode..?
Sorry for all the 'what ifs'... just hoping we can help solve the mystery.
Jonty.
