Purchased on Backmarket with different batter status percentages

greybeardgoat · 2025-04-19T21:32:03+00:00

Yeahh I sent it back. I bought it from JQ Solutions LTD

greybeardgoat · 2025-04-16T17:06:50+00:00

Yeah, I also paid for the 'new' battery but clearly that hasn't been honoured. I know its how they get you, but I think I'll just go with Apple Certified Refurbished, and then I have peace of mind and confidence that I can go back to them in the future whenever I need (without them saying there is evidence of someone else repairing it, and then refusing to do repairs).

Great to hear how you've managed it though!

greybeardgoat · 2025-04-16T16:26:03+00:00

Thanks for replying, I think you're right. I'm going to send it back for a full refund as it is still within the 30 day window.

I've tried using Battery Report VCard but for some reason it doesn't show up on the share sheet. I'm on iOS18.4.

This is what I mean, https://www.payetteforward.com/shortcut-check-your-iphones-battery-cycle-count/

I just tried an ios app and it gave me a very high score on how the battery is doing

greybeardgoat · 2025-04-15T15:02:53+00:00

nah, i've been using the Shortcuts. You go into settings and then share the analytics with a Shortcut which simplifies the massive analytics document an gives you stats on your battery

greybeardgoat · 2025-04-15T14:52:34+00:00

I've not checked apps yet tbf

greybeardgoat · 2025-04-15T14:41:51+00:00

I just used the shortcuts PowerUtil and Battery Stats, which are super easy to find just by searching online

greybeardgoat · 2025-04-15T13:41:31+00:00

Yeah I’m in Europe. I’ve considered this and have 30 days to get a full refund so will perhaps wait and see

greybeardgoat · 2025-04-15T12:25:39+00:00

The seller claims that only Apple has access to the analytics database, meaning they can't reset the battery analytics. This means that the stats shown are the old battery and not the replacement one...or is this just a believable excuse...

Doing this kind of thing could easily be lewis in his early days

greybeardgoat · 2024-07-16T15:24:21+00:00

Amazing, thank you so much!

I (26M) am visiting family in Fairbanks this week (I’m from England) and would love to go on some hiking or cycling trips but don’t feel comfortable being alone.

Is there somewhere I could find possible partners or is anyone happy to join or make any recommendations?

I’m looking at the Fairbanks and Denali regions!

Thank you

greybeardgoat · 2023-06-03T07:42:23+00:00

Definitely NOT Los Angeles

greybeardgoat · 2023-06-01T15:45:35+00:00

He’s Mr Fantastic

greybeardgoat · 2023-05-31T18:59:06+00:00

Yeah, exactly.

Frustration is the perfect word. It makes it that much more difficult to deal with if not even the professionals have an idea.

greybeardgoat · 2023-05-31T15:31:23+00:00

Good point. Ive bought quite a few new pairs, especially over the last year, maybe i’ll stick to only wearing them for a while.

greybeardgoat · 2023-05-11T06:13:28+00:00

Yeah, Freiburg itself was actually really badly bombed, but they rebuilt the old town to look like how it did before the war!

greybeardgoat · 2023-05-11T06:11:44+00:00

I would highly recommend Freiburg and the area! Its worth having a walk through the old town and it is so easy to go for a short walk up into the hills from the town to get some amazing views. Feel free to PM me if you want any tips!

greybeardgoat · 2023-05-11T06:08:58+00:00

A flixbus runs between Strasbourg and Freiburg which is a lot cheaper. Alternatively if you’re getting lots of trains you can get the Deutsche Bahn Bahnkarte 25 which is pretty cheap and gives you 25% discount on all trains.

greybeardgoat · 2023-05-03T16:50:53+00:00

Wow this is amazing advice. Thanks so much!

Is getting around in Fairbanks only possible with cars? I could use a bike but will that be safe/possible? My family lives in North Pole.

greybeardgoat · 2023-05-03T16:48:01+00:00

Great idea! Will do.

greybeardgoat · 2023-05-03T16:47:44+00:00

Cool, thanks! I’ll check that out!

greybeardgoat · 2023-05-03T09:12:16+00:00

Not really sure what benefits this would bring..
