I've been a loyal version customer for years now. I have never had an issue until recently when my phone started having issues. With it being under warranty I took it in and Verizon issued me a refurbished device. The representatives talked a lot about how great the "certified like new device" would be and how Verizon spends time and effort ensuring you will receive a quality device. Well I recently received my 4th "certified like new" device and I have a 5th on the way. Why you might ask. Well let me tell you. First device's home button didn't work at all. You would think that would be an easy feature to check before shipping it off to someone but I guess not. So I tried again. This time the phones screen freezes up and not touch input works. The home button on this one did work though but hey you can't win them all right? So they send me another device. This device arrived today. The screen was half black. I instantly took it into the Verizon store and the representative looked at it and says "this is ridiculous, who would think this is ok to send to a customer?" I myself was thinking the same thing. So I am sending the phone that I just got back in the mail and I have to hold onto the phone who's screen freezes up, because at least on this device I can see the screen and with a reset it will work once again. I appalled that this is all Verizon has to offer me. One broken device after another and they seem perfectly content to do nothing to correct this issue. The only thing that helps is the fact that by the time I get a device that might be considered "functional" Verizon will have spent enough money on shipping phones to and back from me that they would have been better off just replacing it with a new device. Let's pray the next device actually gets set up before it too starts displaying the issues that it was originally returned for. It's rather upsetting that Verizon cares so little about its customers that it has shipped me 3 broken devices already and not bothers to correct this in any way. The representatives at the store have told me all they can do it continue to send me the "certified like new" devices that are broken. Has anyone else experienced this? How did you get it fixed?
