Previously: The Incredible Self-Bricking Cell Phone Rides Again
Verizon finally decided that I should get a replacement, but again refurbished, LG Accolade cell phone. I must commend Verizon for having a labyrinthine automated system that would've confounded Theseus so thoroughly that neither Daedalus nor Ariadne could rescue him, but those props are wiped out by Tier II Support being given absolutely no information whatsoever from the Tier I Support transferring me, and forcing me to repeat such basic information as my name and the number I'm calling about.
In addition to the camera functionality breaking, now the phone won't start charging unless I turn it off. I already had it once shut down and refuse to start charging, but when I unplugged and replugged the charger, it started charging. Both of these are changes since receiving the replacement, so yeah, this refurbished POS is slowly becoming a lemon.
They've got just one more chance to make this right, and it should be on its way to me tomorrow morning. When I receive it, that's anyone's guess.
LG, the Dell of the cell?
