I have a new Galaxy A17 phone from E fucking E. I have had it around 4 months. I have had previous Galaxys with no problems.
After about a month it needed charging every late afternoon so I now carry, when I remember, a battery pack with me.
The screen has the response time on par with Binmen goalkeepers. It often fails to come to life and recognise me even after I have washed my finger
Apps appear and disappear with a whim, only recognising passwords when they feel like it.
The screen darkens at the drop of a hat.
It has even started listening to other people’s conversations and inserting them into the middle of something I’m typing.
I have gone into E fucking E several times abd expressed a desire to throw the sodding phone out of the window. The bright young things smile, take my phone, do strange catalytic things and speak to me woth forked tongue. Yes, I have a lot of apps. No, I don’t use them, l don’t know where they come from or what they do. Yes, please remove the ones l haven’t used. How so they know which ones by the way. Would l mind if they changed the settings to miraculously improve things. Please do I’ve no idea about settings. Can I have a new phone please as this is obviously a POETS job. No.
And now ……..
I am trying to pay for something on line. The screen says ‘open your banking app to confirm payment ‘ with a box to tick after the banking app has confirmed the payment. I open the app, confirm payment and go back to the original payment screen. It is not on the same page, no, it has gone back a page and is now asking me to confirm the bastard payment again. WTF is going on.
I will give E fucking E a last chance, after which l will go elsewhere at@ renewal time. That’ll teach them.
Bastarding modern fucking technology.
