The day Apple and I broke up!!

Once up on a time there was a beautiful girl named Holley. She worked hard and thought it was time to purchase her dream phone. After a particularly interesting point in her life, she went out and bought it. It was a splendid week. Full of much bonding and usage. She had found her true love. A friend, who will remain nameless at this time, invited Holley to go get ice cream. At this point it becomes all fuzzy… Somewhere between point A (her house) and point B (the store) it disappeared. No one knows what happened. Did it get stolen…. Dropped… it is sufficed to say, that it is no more and was never recovered again. After many tears and frustrating tantrums she learned that her best option was of buying a replacement for this phone. $500 later, she was once again in possession of the iPhone. This is where her life is no longer a happy little world with butterflies and flowers. This is where her world becomes a dark and dismal place.

Phone #2: This $500 purchase was a little sketchy. It would not allow me to hold on to any Apps. They would delete our not work after only being installed for a day or two. It would have to be shut down and restarted at least twice a day. I wish I was exaggerating… alas, I am not. I did not feel this was appropriate for the price I paid. I cannot begin to express the remorse in my little heart. I called the help line and they agreed it was a bad phone. Apple agreed to ship me a new phone free of charge. It would arrive in 2-5 business days.

Phone #3: It did not take 2-5 business days. It took 10. It got lost in the mail. However, I should have mentioned that I would be billed if my other phone was not back in Apples possession within 10 days. Yep, you guessed it… they billed me another $500. This was a little sad for me on so many levels. I did not have enough money to pay this incredible amount. I called and told them that I had not yet received it and they checked with the postal service and found the phone and I got it the next day. When I tried to get my $500 back the battle begins. I was told at first that it would take up to 2 weeks for that to be put in my bank account. OR, I could have 370 within 2 business days and that is it. It took me 2 hours to get 420 back within 2 business days. They were also kind enough to give me Mobile me Mobile for free.

Phone #4: This phone, I like to say was a bad egg. It came to me bad. I opened it up and the screen was white. It would not let me in at all. I could feel it vibrate and hear it ring, but could not answer. I drove it to Salt Lake City and went to the store. They told me, that this just happens to 1 in every 200 phones. They gave me a new one.

Phone #5: This last phone has been VERY good to me. I must say that I have enjoyed it. I have had it for a month ( the longest out of them all.) However, A few days ago, I noticed that it will not let me view my contacts. I have called and done several walk through, but alas… it will only let me see 42 contacts. I have tried to add them again, but they just vanish. Where do they go?!!!

I am done. No more. I am over $1000 dollars right now. NO PHONE IS WORTH A GRAND!! I seriously cannot be this unlucky… Sigh!

The end
