phoned htc this morning and they are collecting today regarding the chipping
its under warranty until june 2014 but i am not the original purchaser so dont know if this is a problem
have packaged it up and notice it says to include original receipt
hopefully everything will turn out allright as i am loving the phone
Make sure you leave a note in it or something saying that you don't want to have a replacement model which will most likely have the s3 cpu as the s4 CPU was the reason you bought the phone.
yeah will keep everyone posted and see what happens
only problem i can see at the moment is i dont have the original purchase receipt
a result for me would be it gets re housed and then i get a case for it to keep it minty
and it still has warranty till 2014
worse case scenario they refuse to do anything with it but i might go down the route of either getting a housing and doing it myself
and would replace the battery at the same time with that bigger one
Do all HTC phones come with a 2 year warranty? How did you find out when yours expires?
emu was yours completely restored to stock? or did you send it back with any mods at all?
it was totally stock
havent got round to putting a custom rom on it yet
i actually like all the sense stuff so may leave it stock
What are the exact timelines for the turn around?
Seems like a few days from your posts.
**edit**
well I rang up HTC and they said it'll be £25 charge if they deem it's just a wear and tear problem. They also state that all the new htc black casings should not suffer from the chipping.
Anyway, they're collecting it on Monday so we'll see what happens.
