Miro Jurcevic (@mirojurcevic) reportedI think most nerds have been to the Apple Store and ordered every possible option for a Mac Pro or went to a server vendor and ordered a trillion servers.

Greg - Israelite in Exile (surviving the Galut) (@anexiledjew) reportedI bought a set of AirPods Pro from Laptops Direct about a year ago. I have a problem with the left AirPod charging, and I went to an Apple Store to have them look at it today. Astonishingly, the serial number is tied to a date of purchase from 2024 in a Walmart in the United States. Avoid this retailer.

Alida Antonia (@ArtByAlida) reported@ATT Your tech support told me that I should go to the Apple Store because he could not fix my issue. Apple had full access to see my settings. It’s an @ATT problem. It’s not an Apple issue.

The warranty is active and covers accidental damage. I paid for the warranty at the same time i bought my ipad, pencil, and keyboard. I have the receipt and still a major hassle. /

Cameron Hogan (@thecameronhogan) reportedMost customer service conversations were never actually about the problem. A surprising number happen for one reason. People are lonely. We have all felt the edge of this. A stretch of days without real connection… And suddenly the cashier, the barista, the receptionist, the person on the help line… Feel strangely important. In 2020, a grocery run became the highlight of the week. A few words with a stranger landed like a feast. We were not shopping. We were starving for contact. Now carry that same hunger into ordinary life. The answer is on Google. The fix takes thirty seconds. The issue is small enough to solve alone. And still… We call. We wait on hold. We drive there in person. Because the problem was never really the problem. The contact was. I saw this clearly standing in an Apple store one afternoon. A man frustrated that his seven-year-old phone was not as loud as it used to be. Around him… A dozen more carrying problems just as small. Tiny inconveniences held up like emergencies. Each one quietly purchasing a few minutes near another human being. Those were not technology problems. They were connection problems. People reaching for human contact… Using the only doorway that felt socially acceptable. A broken phone gives us permission to be cared for. Loneliness does not. And this is what happens when a need goes unmet for too long. It starts disguising itself. Not manipulation. Not selfishness. Just an unmet human need… Looking for the nearest warm signal the only way it knows how. And it usually lands on whoever is paid to stay patient. Service workers absorb this all day. Hours of other people's quiet loneliness… Arriving disguised as complaints they cannot actually solve. Because the real ache was never on the work order. Which means much of what we call customer service… Is not actually a customer service problem. It is loneliness… Quietly rerouted through the one interaction people could justify having. So the real fix was never better support. Or shorter wait times. Or more efficient systems. It is connection… That does not have to be manufactured. Because when people feel genuinely seen in everyday life… A thousand invented problems quietly disappear. Along with the weight they place on everyone paid to carry them.

mkb (@mkbraudaway) reported@FloreFlos Smart move. I had an issue w/cell service. Went to get it resolved & the employee literally referred me to the Apple Store to fix an issue THEY created. 🤯I went back on a diff day & told the manager. Said I was in cust serv for a very long time & I was mortified. He was too.

Erik Radle (@Radle) reported@JMakeley @ProhibitionUS You can't tell the difference between an Apple Store and a cartel? The PROBLEM is a poisoned supply, cut with fent and rat poison. People are dying not because of drugs but because of cross contamination. Notice how our booze supply isn't poisoned? Legal and regulated industries are not dressed-up cartels, friend. You don't want harm reduction, just control.

Setlhomo Raymond Tshwanelang🕵🏾 (@StizzyWizzyRay) reportedAnyone in Gaborone who specialises in Apple software issues? My Apple Watch got stuck in a boot loop after a software update & the Apple Store at The Fields Mall doesn’t seem to know how to fix it. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

Pooja (@poojaofficial5) reportedMy friend's iPhone 13 suddenly started malfunctioning At first, she thought the battery was simply draining too fast. But after a few days, it became clear that the problem was much more serious. The battery had started swelling, and the phone's body was beginning to bulge from the inside. The biggest surprise ? "The phone was completely out of warranty." No AppleCare. No extended coverage. Both of us assumed that replacing the battery would cost thousands of rupees. But what happened at the Apple Store in DLF Mall, Noida completely surprised us. The staff inspected the device and explained that a swollen battery is considered a safety hazard. A little later, they informed us that the battery would be replaced FREE of charge. We thought it might be some special discount or adjustment, but when the bill arrived, it showed "₹0.00" At a time when many companies shift the entire cost to customers once the warranty expires, receiving a free battery replacement for an out of warranty phone was genuinely unexpected. This experience taught us an important lesson If your phone's battery is swelling, the screen is lifting, or the body of the phone is starting to separate, don't ignore it. It's not just a device issue it can also be a serious safety risk. Sometimes, a company's true reputation isn't built through advertisements, but through the way it helps customers when they face unexpected problems. Have you ever received a service that exceeded your expectations ? Share your experience in the comments.

masYNYa (@KijAkubovs86334) reportedA developer walked out of an Apple Store carrying 7 Mac mini boxes. Security watched him. Other customers watched him. He sat down in the lounge, opened his laptop, and got to work before he even got home. Pause at [0:09]. Look at the meter plugged in on the left. 180 watts. That is the entire operation at full load. Your gaming PC idles higher than that. Five M4 Mac minis. Clustered into one machine with EXO. No cloud. No API subscription. No data leaving the room. Ever. A Llama 70B running local on MLX. It ingests a 90,000 word manuscript. Cleans the formatting. Splits the chapters. Marks every line of dialogue with the emotion it should be read in. Then a local voice model narrates the entire book in one locked voice that never gets tired and never raises its day rate. 40 hours of clean audiobook narration. Every month. While he sleeps. He sells the finished files to indie authors and faceless YouTube channels who cannot afford a studio and will not wait three weeks for one. $23 a month in electricity. $11,840 a month out. The 7 boxes on the floor are not a flex. They are the infrastructure. His girlfriend asked why he didn't just buy more. He already ordered them.

John Drouin (@John_Drew65) reported@ramcharger22 My wife and were having security issues that might’ve involved her phone. Went to the Apple Store & they checked it out, no problem. Also told us that there is no real difference between a 13 - 17. If it’s working fine no need to change.

Campbell (@boomers_ass) reportedThe Apple Store is a joke. Went in last week to replace my iPhone battery. They had to order the part. Waited ~10 days, then got told: “Come in within 2 days or we might give the battery to someone else.” Made an appointment for today. Waited, then the rep says they can’t do the repair because “the system we use to track repairs is down.” Me: “You have the part. You have my phone. But you can’t install it because the computer is down?” Poor guy — not his fault. But the geniuses running the Apple Store aren’t quite as smart as they like to pretend. This is NOT the future.

I need more sunshine (@chicagoaudra) reportedAnyone else having issues with newer @apple phones? I have an @apple iPhone 17pro that I’ve had problems with since I bought it through @ATT around Christmas. It has not worked consistently, with any of my Bluetooth devices, and is getting worse over time. Even my watch (series 11) is almost never connected and runs out of batteries really quickly now because it is constantly trying to connect and reconnect to the phone. Spent hours at the Apple Store a while back where they made me reset my phone and I couldn’t restore from the backup at all. I did that and the problem did not resolve. It mostly finds the devices but won’t connect or won’t stay connected or even paired. All of my devices work on my husband’s phone just fine (same phone). I have not been able to use any of my devices at all in over a week now, yet my phone somehow “passes” their diagnostics, despite not working at all in practical reality. It failed one test in the Apple Store but then passed when they redid it, so of course, they went with the pass. 🙄 Because of the “passing” the diagnostics, they refuse to replace the phone and won’t do anything about it. They just tell me it has to be a software issue and “the engineering team is working on it.” For months now. None of this happened with my iPhone 15pro and it doesn’t work with other phones either. How is this acceptable? They just took my money and I am SOL when it doesn’t work? No offer of a different device, a refund etc, no attempt to solve my issue. Just sucks to be me? Anyone have ideas of what I can try next? I have spent way too much time on this, but I would like a phone of my own that works. Also, if you are thinking of the Apple iPhone 17 pro, skip it. I feel like I’ve been ripped off and I don’t feel like they should be able to just take my money and leave me with this lemon of a product. Is there a lemon law for phones? Tired of this. I’m so sorry I got rid of my 15.

Joey Hansen (@joeydhansen) reportedBig props to me for successfully ordering a USB-C cable from the Apple Store website after 4 days of unsuccessfully attempting to do so. I kept sitting down to order the cable, got distracted and then at some point the following day remembered I didn't finish the order.

Jack (@jackcoder0) reportedIf this saved you $70 or helped you realize the Pro 2 is worth $70 more one ask: Repost the first post so the next person standing in the Apple Store staring at two boxes has the breakdown before they buy. Follow [ @jackcoder0 ] I break down the hidden comparisons, features, and pricing games that companies bank on you not questioning.

Moral Priest 🌱Ⓥ ₿ (@MoralPriest) reported@BeSovereign_1 @0xEthan No. iOS is inherently a problem as it require someone to KYC themself to publish on Apple store. You could compile a version yourself and side load it in theory.

ThatMedChidi👩🏽⚕️🩺💓 (@chidi_jenny) reportedWent to @Apple store in Arndale to diagnose/fix my screen that’s been going dark & they told me the screen & battery were done for & it’ll cost like 600 quid to fix; advised me to get a new one instead 😩. In the meantime I’ll just keep connecting it to my TV w/ HDMI 😩😭😭😭.

Omnicris (@Omnicris) reportedYeah, it could, but it won't. People steal things that are locked down all the time. I mean, even the Apple Store display models get stolen all the time, and those have a special version of iOS that runs on them, so you can't do anything with them anyway; they're paperweights. My concern is the ability for Apple, or any tech company for that matter, to be able to remotely disable a device, whether you are a criminal or not.
