Refuses to fix phone

MTN repair centre refuses to fix my husbands phone under warranty just because his camera is cracked, yet the LG G5 has a common issue of the screen splitting vertically - nothing to do whatsoever with the camera that is cracked. Now the second phone from MTN that they wont repair, First phone was LG G4 that they didn't fix MTN is useless - Once the contract is finished, will rather cancel and go somewhere else for a cellphone contract

Good day Lindy,

Thank you for taking the time to raise your concerns and affording us the opportunity to address the same. Kindly accept our sincere apologies for any inconvenience caused.

Kindly note that a warranty does not cover you for any physical damage to your device. This is the terms to a warranty for all SP's in SA. The screen splitting issue with the G5 in not physical damage and you are correct in stating that it would not have anything to d with the camera cracking. I would suggest that you get your devices insured so that you would be covered in the event of any further physical damage.

Kind regards,

Ishie.

Complaints Management Team.

Best regards,

LP

The problem is im not asking MTN to cover the physical damage - I am asking MTN to fix the common known issue that the LG G5 has of the splitting screen. I will get hold of LG myself. There is no point insuring a phone that I cannot even use now and we pay so much money for it monthly and now the phone is useless to us
