Solved: Re: Note 3 - Scuffed bezel

Anonymous · ‎09-12-2013

Hello

I upgraded to a Note 3 last week and after getting home I noticed that there was a slight scuff mark on the right hand side of the device, right on top of the bezel, no amount of polishing with a lense cloth is getting rid of it. It's not the protective sticker either.

I've done a bit of Googling and I'm not the only one with this issue but it's not widespread either, I'm in two minds about trying to do something about it as I don't want the replacement to be worse but at the same time it's a brand new phone.

If I asked O2 to replace it would they laugh in my face or replace it?

I have insurance with them if it makes a difference.

Thanks

It's been sorted but unfortunately not the way I wanted.

I asked to cancel the contract, however because I did a fast track upgrade I waived my rights to cancel it(!) In the end I was transferred from my contract to a simplicity plan which I intend to cancel ASAP.

Fair play to the store, they busted a nut to help me out but the system was saying no.

Sorry O2 but you've lost a loyal customer.

They should replace it if they won't you have the right to cancel the contract and take it out again

You should have returned it immediately for the best chance.... As it's a week later now it is going to be difficult to prove it was dropped or damaged some other way, but you can only ask and see what they say.....

I didn't notice it until I got home and had a proper look, I've spent the last few days debating what to do. I feel silly because it's not a massive scuff but it's a brand new device that is meant to last me two years.

Just give it a try and see what they say....

you have 14 days from the date of purchase to exchange a faulty phone so you need to decide quick

Unfortunately damage isn't necessarily a fault - You'd have to prove it was there from new....

Or you could just cancel and take it out again

Even that might be difficult as you'd be returning a damaged item and it could be rejected.
