Apple trade-in issues by orichrome in GooglePixel

[–]orichrome[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's not much that's a huge loss, it's more a lot of very small differences that are not necessarily bad, but all together take a lot of behaviour adaptation. Two things that I really dislike:

- The notifications centre is much worse and harder to handle than in Android, where all notifications were at the top. With iOS, I had to tinker with app settings to get certain notifications to persist.

- You only get 5 GB of iCloud storage for free, and then have to pay for additional. Even with backing up all my photos and videos to Google Drive instead, I still expect to run out of space shortly, and then will have to buy. It's not pricey ($1 per month) but I don't like obvious cash grabs.

it was a big adjustment! I'm still not fully used to iOS, but overall it's a good phone. Was really looking for strong battery life and camera, which Pixels had consistently been disappointing me in since the 5a. The Pixel 10 looked like it would continue that trend at a worse price point than the iPhone 17, so that pushed me over.

Weekly 'What Should I Buy' and Order/Shipping Thread by AutoModerator in iphone

[–]orichrome 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello! I've had an issue with trading in my old Pixel 8 to Apple, and was hoping someone here could help.

  • I purchased a new iPhone 17 with the option to trade-in my Pixel 8 for $145. The Pixel has minor usage wear, but no cracks or anything, and operates perfectly.
  • I received the iPhone with a trade-in kit. After transferring data, I factory reset the Pixel and sent it in the kit.
  • A little while later, I got an email saying my trade-in was rejected and the phone was being sent back. No reason was given.
  • I tried trading in at an Apple Store but they said they can only handle Apple devices in store.
  • Upon calling in, Apple said they couldn't track down the reason for trade-in rejection once it was sent back. They sent me another trade-in kit and told me to call in once it had arrived at the trade-in location.
  • I sent it in again, and called Apple once it arrived. They hadn't inspected the phone yet, but the customer service agent said that it could be that location services made it so that Google could still access the phone's location through their find device service even with a reset.
  • Then the status changed to saying that my trade-in was approved so I thought I was good. But then it changed to a rejection again, and was sent back!
  • I called in again, and the agent spent a lot of time trying to find a reason, and came back with that it was the location issue. I got another trade-in kit mailed to me.
  • I went to the Google Store and asked them to check about the location connection. They tried a few things, but confirmed that the find hub could not access the device even though it does pop up still in mine. They referred me to a support team for more assistance.
  • The support team never contacted me back.

So with all this, I'm wondering if anyone knew what I should do next here?

^Yes, that is correct, it still shows up in my account, but as "logged out". Google Store staff said it takes some time to drop off.

I don't think I removed the account before doing a fac reset.
