General Comments

Carphone Warehouse were doing preorders on iPhones, so I ordered one and was told it would be with me on the Friday they were released. After waiting all day Friday, I phoned to be told they were out of stock (something they should have told me when ordering). Instead I could have a white one, which would be delivered on Saturday morning. I waited all Saturday morning. It didn ' t arrive. I phoned up to be told that my order had come in too late to be shipped Saturday and that they usually don ' t do that anyway and there weren ' t any in stock either. I cancelled the order and was told I hadn ' t been charged.

I went in to the Apple store, who were very helpful and treated me with politeness and respect. I know not everyone has an Apple Store, but if you do they are great. They operate a little differently to most stores, which can be confusing to begin with (no tills to queue up at), but the service is wonderful.

Today I was looking at my bank account and they ' d charged me. Which means 3 different customer service representatives lied to me. I phoned again and got a customer complaints representative. She arranged to refund my money but I pointed out that wasn ' t really enough. I ' ve had to make 3 calls at my own expense and they ' ve had my money under false pretences since 18 June. Apparently that is worth a £5 voucher. I pointed out that I ' d never use their company again, so a voucher was of no use.
