Service in the UK - Huawei Ascend P6, Mate

Hi,
I had to send my p6 back to the service centre because the wlan drops the front camera does not work and a gps does not get fix just after restart.
I phoned them and I had to pay £7 to send the phone even I have manufactuer warranty on it.
This is so ....
Cannot find words...
My friend sent his lg and that was free.
I chose wrong company...

I wish the best of luck to you in getting your phone fixed.
And yes, its not fair that you have to pay for your phone since you have warranty.

Thank you indeed.
I do not have to say I am disappointed...

Did you root your device? This may void yr warranty.

I think by law you must/have to take the device back to the place you brought it from. And they take care for the transportation to the service. Sending it by courier is special service, and is not covered by the seller. Unless he is a giant like LG, which Huawei is not outside China. And the seller most likely is not Huawei itself, but some middleman ?
Where did you buy from phone from, and where did you friend get his LG ?

I have huawei 3 days service. They'll pick my device up for free and deliver it back to me in 3 days.

This is not a valid excuse, the sold it, they should provide the warranty support.
Good luck anyway.

Nope, I live in the Netherlands.

I got my phone back in 5 working days.
Front camera issue is still a problem but if I try to start the camera after the first ~13 trying (gallery has stopped ) it works...
STRANGE !
Wifi drops: only one in 48hours...

Sending phone back to samsung under manfacturers warranty

Im having some hardware issues.
If i get a replacement from samsung, roughly how long would it be before i recieved the phone back?
For anyone who has any sort of experience with this, your feedback would be greatly appreciated

Thru the warranty they send you the phone overnighrt. Usually you'll get it by the next day or the day after. Then after you receive it you send your defective phone via the same box the new one arrived.

You're thinking thru T-Mobile buddy, thru Sammy you need to send your device in 1st and its usually a 1 week turnaround.

Why would you send the phone to Samsung,when you can have it replaced much quicker through T-mobile? It doesn't matter where you bought it as long as you're a T-mobile customer.

You can only get a replacement through T-mobile if you have their insurance plan, otherwise you have to go through the manufacturer. You're **** out of luck if you don't have a receipt though. They don't care about the manufacture date on the phone, only the receipt.

Um no. If you bought from t mobile and chose to not take their insurance you still have a one year warranty rhat can be claimed. Through Tmobile by either calling csr reps, online chat or going to the store. Whomever told you otherwisenis misinformed.

I did send my Samsung nexus S for warranty work to Samsung and it took about 3 weeks till i got it back. Since then i have learned to always have a decent backup phone.
And this from Samsung not TMobile.

Mines took about 7-8 days. They did free 2nd day shipping both ways for me though. Got mines back better than the way I received it too lol. They replaced my cracked bezel, even though I didn't say that was the problem with my phone.

Warranty

Hi.
I'm just confused about how does the warranty system work for Xperia phones.
First, where to send it? I didn't find anything from sonyxperia.com. Is it a private company that repairs the phones or is it just a subsidiary of Sony?
Second, does the warranty work without the receipt you got when you purchased the product? I did not get a receipt, because I ordered the poutine from a small online store. I have the confirmation emails they've sent me, but is it enough? I've also heard it's the IMEI code that destined the warranty, true or false?
I'm asking all this because I'm selling my Arc( probably buying Xperia S or GS2) and the buyer wants to know that the warranty does work.
Thank you in advance!

Repairing question..

Hey guys & girls, I'm gonna make it quick:
I need to send my Gnex in.. It has some screen problems, which aren't major.. But annoying in time...
My question is, since the Gnex is taken down from the store, how long will Google/Samsung repair it?
I'm curios, because when I'll wait, I'm scared if my carrier (where I send it from) will say they don't repair the phone cause it's too old... Or is there no "too old device" .. Maybe some people with older devices have some experience..
Thank you in advance.

Still 1 year. Unless your carrier offered insurance and you took them up on it.
Okay thank you so I got some time ^^

Well in many European countries (germany included apparently) you are ensured a 2 year warranty by law, which they would have to obey if they sold the product in that country, insurance or not.
So if it's within this time, the carrier, who is the seller in this case would be obligated to either repair it, give you a new product and if the product is out of production, they would have to give you something similar or better.(the time in which the product is produced and sold can not limit this)

Just contact the carrier, they will know how to handle it.
Yeah, but I thought I'll get in troubles when I say "I have a defective device, but I only send it in when it's broken" ..
I know I don't have to say it that way, but even the question how they handle it would make them suspicious..

Hello,

You'll need to call O2 and get an unlock code from them. You'll most likely have to pay for it. If you're in the UK, most small shopping centres have mobile fone kiosks where this can be done for a small fee.
