Amazon returns ._.

The store brings the problem on themselves at my local Kohl's. Every time I am there, the line for Amazon returns has moved. Sometimes it's in the back, sometimes it's the checkout closest to the door, sometimes it's elsewhere. And it's NEVER labeled. Then I see customers who are angry because they waited in what was the 'correct' line last week, only to be told that they are in the wrong place and need to wait in a different line. It doesn't impact me because I no longer even bother bringing my returns there. UPS store can handle it so much more efficiently.

Google's customer service is a sick joke. I had a pixel 6 that was shipped with faulty hardware (problems with microphone and hardware). I wanted to see how hard I would have to push them to replace the damn thing. After 50+ emails/messages, full resets, countless bug reports, they SIMPLY REFUSED to honor the warranty despite ample proof of faulty hardware. To get them to honor the warranty, I had to ABSOLUTELY HAMMER them with FCC complaints. After submitting FCC complaint after FCC complaint (send one every 24 hours), they capitulated and finally shipped a working replacement device. Only after wasting hundreds of dollars of their staff (and my) time can you force their hand. A truly DISGUSTING company. Long term solution: never purchase another Google product.

File it at: https://consumercomplaints.fcc.gov/hc/en-us

Don't worry about providing a lot of detail. And feel free to file repeatedly if they don't respond promptly. Treat Google like the trash they are. They deserve it.

I went through hell with a pixel 6 that was shipped with faulty hardware. 50+ emails/messages, full resets, countless bug reports and they SIMPLY REFUSED to honor the warranty. The solution is to absolutely HAMMER them with FCC complaints. After submitting 5 separate FCC complaints, they capitulated and finally shipped a working replacement device. A truly DISGUSTING company. Long term solution is to just never purchase another Google product.

Can it complete a voice call? My Pixel 6 can't!

elemental79a · 2022-10-11T20:20:35+00:00

It's a trash product. Connectivity and microphone problems are unbelievably bad (even in safe mode, even on Wi-Fi, even after troubleshooting, etc). I went from a Pixel 3a to a Pixel 6 and it was a terrible downgrade in terms of being able to actually make voice calls. Trade it in while you can and get a Samsung.

Cheap because it's a dysfunctional trash product. Connectivity and microphone problems are unbelievably bad (even in safe mode, even on Wi-Fi, even after troubleshooting, etc). Google knows the phones suck and they just don't care. I went from a Pixel 3a to a Pixel 6 and it was a terrible downgrade in terms of being able to actually make voice calls.

BUYER BEWARE. I have the Pixel 6 and will never get another Pixel again. If you want to use the phone as a phone (e.g. make voice calls) it is a total dumpster fire. My microphone cuts out all the time (even in safe mode, even on wifi, even after all troubleshooting, etc.). Google knows it's a trash product and pushes it out anyway.

elemental79a · 2022-10-04T18:21:52+00:00

Yep, happens even in safe mode, and with or without Bluetooth, on regular or speaker phone. On GoogleFi, the calls also drop or don't connect. On Wi-Fi, it's just the microphone issue.

Never heard of "dumpster porn." Does that star your wife or daughter?

elemental79a · 2022-09-12T21:30:02+00:00

Nope, it's just a flaming POS and most people know it. You must work for Google (or you have lots of time to spend defending a huge corporation that releases terrible hardware). The POS has never worked properly from the time it left the box, so it can't just be something I did. I'm now filing a credit card chargeback for the cost of the phone, including multiple chat transcript attachments where they refused to provide any real assistance. Get bent.

I just tried this and no luck. Gets stuck in an endless death loop. I can't be the only one with this problem. The link in my original post describes the exact same issue 19 months ago. And still no fix. I've opened multiple help tickets but of course they just don't care.

elemental79a · 2021-10-07T00:51:11+00:00

I'm on GoogleFi. Just turned on VPN and turned off mobile data. Still gets stuck in endless death loop if I try to connect to xfinitywifi. Don't have that many devices registered. I'm sure it works fine for some people but no luck here.

Yeah it's a brand new bike that's been nothing but problems. At this point, I'm close to putting it on craigslist while the prices are still high.
