VODACOM DOES APPLE NO FAVOURS

Telecommunications

Shutter failure experienced with iPhone4, under guanantee, sent to Advance Repair Centre in Johannesburg, informed that "liquid or physical damage is detected on your handset it voids the warranty and a quote is generated" I dismissed the claim that the handset was water damaged and requested a full report and photograph of the "red light", consultant in Worcester reported "moisture damage" the b&w photo was useless! Moisture damage is contradictory to Apple's T&C'S. Gaynor Assur Customer Relations Office Vodacom Shop Tygervalley Group was totally unco-operative, numerous emails back and forth. Shutter failure and moisture damage with iPHome4 is well documented online, the question begs why would Apple manufacture a phone that becomes damaged so easily "LIQUID damage can also change as the liquid spreads through the board. Liquid damage can be caused by actual water (dropping in water, getting out of the shower with wet hair and phone rings), condensation, hand cream, perfume, excessive temperature changes, steam (kitchen, bathroom) perspiration (after exercise, warm day), mist cooling systems at restaurants and many more". moisture entered via SPEAKER.
