Apple Initiates iPhone 5 Sleep/Wake Button Replacement Program

[cybercom8]

anyone knows which are the eligible service centres to send to for the repair?

 

[beckhamfan]

Wheelock and Plaza Singapura.
Don't go to wheelock. Service sucks so bad.

Bought a Mi3 for this purpose. Plan to get my iphone 5 repaired and use my mi3 as a spear phone. After that when my iphone 5 is back, sell while the price is still good. there after=, da-han with my mi3 till iphone 6 comes out.

Thank goodness for Jailbreak (CCQuick Pro), else I would have spent money to repair my wake button a long time ago.

You can actually loan an iPhone 5 16GB from apple just a thought.

Go to Plaza Singapura instead.
QCD service is terrible.

I called A.LAB @ Plaza Singapura this morning to enquire.

Yes, they do have loaner sets available.

However, she cautioned me to be prepared to wait for between 1 to 3 hours for service as queues are long there.

QCD

My experience with QCD at Tradehub 21...

Brought my MBP down (still under warranty) cos Disk Repair says HD got bad sectors (Mac response slow)...

Service guy diagnose and says HD is not the problem, need to put MBP there for a week...

Called up a few days later and they haven't done anything yet, went down to check and says cannot find anything wrong with my MBP and need to do further Diagnose, told them it was HD problem but they still say it's ok, told them to take out the HD and carry on with the diagnose as they say that they need to reformat the whole MBP

Brought my HD to the repair hospital at Alexandra Retail Center and cfm HD bad sectors need to buy new HD...

Went back to QCD next day cos they still haven't found the problem yet and asked them to return my MBP, brought it down to TRH and got it fixed at 180 incl new HD.

Very cool throughout the whole incident cos it won't solve anything to get worked up as I felt I was dealing with a bunch of amateurs at QCD.

Hope Apple reads this and do something about it before image goes down, they used to have very good customer service at APPLE AMK plant but they have since sourced out their customer service centers... SIIIIIGHHHH

Why am I not surprised?

Anyway, Apple won't read this.

Plse send your feedback to Apple via Apple Support (like what I did).

I guess its repair and not 1 on 1 exchange. 4-6 days later to collect back you phone.

IMO too hassle aldy.. still must reset phone to factory settings... all data lost..

Do a backup to iCloud. Restore on "new" set

 

[kilobyte78]

Did not have any problem so far with iPhones
