Lumia 1520 "NOT FOR RESALE"

[Yunnnn]

Could be a developer phone, I've ever had a Lumia (for development) that specifically states "NOT FOR RESALE".

Good news! Nokia Philippines phoned me and we talked about the problem and they said that they will replace my phone! Hopefully by Sunday we will meet to get my phone exchanged! ��

From where did you get it? Good for you as it is hard to get a replacement from NokiaPH

 

[savagelizards]

You will get your phone replaced, although you didn't buy from them or have a warranty? That's gonna be the best customer service in the world.

Ignore Jasky, he's not read/understood the contents of the thread.

Wow that's really nice of Nokia to replace your phone with a brand new piece. Congrats mate and I'm happy your problem will be resolved. Next time be very careful when purchasing stuff. I normally never go in for second hand stuff as I don't know how was the phone handled by the earlier party or whether is a legitimate piece or a stolen one. Especially with expensive deals its not really worth taking the risk.

I want to share my experience also and thank to OP.

NokiaPH called me and they said they will replace my 'Not for Resale' unit.

They told me that those units were not supposed to be sold (obviously) and they will have it replaced so that the 'Not for Resale' unit will be back to their possesion.

I asked them if 'there is a problem' and they said on my part, no, they will just replace it. And for the seller part they told me that there's a consequence.

I tried to dig in more but the agent said that it is private and internal process.

so, thanks to you OP.

I'm glad that they will replace our units. When will they replace your unit? The agent told me that he will replace it on Sunday.

 

[Pete]

Nokia will want the unit back so that they can find out who broke their agreement in selling/losing/giving the phone. It's not unknown for test units to be lost or stolen. Nokia will want to tie up the loose ends.

I expect that they're willing to replace the handset as an incentive to get you to return the rogue unit. It's great PR for them as well.

 

[patrickmj23]

they did not told me an exact date but they told me "within this week"

so hopefully by sat or sunday philippine time, i already have the replaced unit.

p.s.

they told me that the one they are giving is color black.

Cool one bro. Had my unit also replaced due to some faulty radio hardware. Couldn't get good data. They didn't even ask me to bring in my unit until the end. They even sent me another unit so I can personally test and compare. When they said they'll replace what I bought, it took but one day for them to say it's ready for pick up at Ali mall. Happy since then

Before my 720 and 1520 I have a faulty L800, NokiaPH refuses to replace which I escalated to DTI. After the escalation I demanded for a refund instead of replacement.
Maybe the escalations have shaken NokiaPH. As for the refund, I used it to purchase the 720.lol

Nokia also said that the available color for replacement is Black. I wish it's Yellow.

It's hard to find yellow variant and have seen it only available in SM-Fairview

Wished to get yellow and end up with white.

Final Update: NokiaPH already replaced my unit.

 

[Titanicology]

UPDATE: Got my replacement unit today. I'm very pleased with Nokia's costumer service.

Great news

These units weren't security unlocked or didnt have some special firmware on them?
