Yeah that’s a tough one then. I always feel people at least for most the Max is a two handed phone and if you can’t get used to the weight/within a week the smaller phones may be a better option.

Yea, they will be refunding me for my stolen phone and the associate texted me today to let me know she was still working on getting the ticket order cancelled. I sat with her as she called in to whoever manages the claims for Verizon in store, and she called them twice to confirm that they were taking care of the issue. They said it would be taken care of tomorrow (today). Well today, she texted me saying the claims center or whoever hadn’t put enough information in and they’re still waiting to get to the ticket. She’s working very hard on my behalf as I witnessed her call twice to confirm that whoever manages these claims for Verizon would be doing their job. I bought a 256 GB in store yesterday because I needed a working phone for my weekend road trip, and after my trip when I come back the 2nd, I will be ordering the 512 GB, having it delivered in store, and returning the 256 GB. They said I’ll need to pay a $50 restocking fee but honestly, I’ll pay that over my dead body. I was advised to file a police report and I think that’s what I’m going to do.

Yes definitely do not order. This was my first phone buying experience and it’s been awful. I went in to the store, and ordered it in store, but they didn’t carry the 512 GB in stock, so they had it shipped to me. They didn’t give me in-store delivery as an option, so I didn’t know it was offered, but now they are. I would’ve ordered directly from Apple but then I wouldn’t get my $800 trade in

Ok, I’m not sure if that would be overkill or not but I guess I could. Mostly because, I want accountability for this somehow. But I wouldn’t be able to as I leave for my trip tonight and won’t be back until the 2nd, so it might be too late to file a report.

Reply to There is really a clear solution to this messaging issue by D_Empire412

Lmaoooo I’ve said this before and I’ll say it again..

I joined to this sub for these r/facepalm posts lol

Like, “the clear solution” is for Android users to buy an entire Mac computer and set up some message forwarding system just for the sole purpose of using iMessage features…

Yep, I’m sure the android users will be flocking to this “solution”.

If you don’t like the weight maybe go for the Plus? I got used to the weight of the 14PM pretty quick and I have pretty small hands too, the screen and battery life make the phone worth it for me. Other iPhones feel too small now.

Reply to This is one of the best iOS 16 features. The amount of spam/scam messages I receive have gone down a lot. by MrYeetFeet69

On a related subject: Does anyone here use Hiya by any chance? Doesn't appear to show any way to enable premium access. I followed all the troubleshooting on their site and sent a support request a couple of weeks ago with no response. Are there any other alternatives to use for reporting/blocking scam calls and messages? Oh and I'm not in the U.S. either.

Edit: Further reading when scrolling down it appears that WideProtect is the winner, might give that one a try. :)
