Hi all,
Anyone went for battery replacement recently? Recently my friend went and was offered to change a new unit at RM399 due to his battery swollen. The staff told him this is the new revised price since a week ago. When I went in August, it was still RM199. Just want to clarify if the RM399 is legit. |

Guys,
I experienced the same thing today, machines told me that my ip6 batter is swollen and apple dont allowed them to change a swollen battery. They can only 1-1 new ip6 exchane with price 399, damn expensive.. my phone just worth 500 and i need to pay 399 to fix the battery? |

all this battery swollen thing, i’m a bit sceptical. there’s so many cases, wondering if it is the real case or some of the premium resellers out to make a quick bucks.

QUOTE(nkhong @ Nov 18 2018, 07:33 PM) Guys, When it was RM199 back then it would be worth it, but yeah, RM399 for an iPhone 6 would be rather high. Did you ask them to show you the swollen battery as proof? I experienced the same thing today, machines told me that my ip6 batter is swollen and apple dont allowed them to change a swollen battery. They can only 1-1 new ip6 exchane with price 399, damn expensive.. my phone just worth 500 and i need to pay 399 to fix the battery? |

So, today my friend went to the Northpoint Machines center and the technician did not diagnose any swollen battery. So ended up, he just paid for RM129 for the battery replacement. Now I am quite sceptical about Curves Machines technicians... |

Maybe it's time to bring your phones to other service centres |
