Electric Shock Iphone 5

Hey Guys,

Have had my Iphone 5 since launch and when ever it is on charge i get small electric shocks when my hand rubs pass it or I have it to my head I can feel quite harsh shocks.

Anyone else have this?

Thanks.

Sure its not static shocks? I keep getting them from everything at work due to these new trainers I have. Getting them mainly from things are are powered.

Is this while it's attached to a charger? If it is, you need a new one! I had a play with an iPad in a superstore, which gave me a small shock from the charger. This could be a similar thing?

It happens when the charger isn't earthed correctly. It does the same thing with macbooks.
