DEFECTIVE BATTERY VOIDS WARRANTY

Hi To all reading this<br> <br> I have had my samsung s6 edge for nearly 6 months now, <br> <br> unlucky for me, it has been sent once for a glass replacement due to my digitizer breaking. (kids)<br> <br> So i when i got my phone back it was working 100 %, and I put it into a leather pouch so its screen can be protected. After a while my phones battery started giving problems with it dying when it reaches 50 %.<br> <br> Eventually one day i took it out of the pouch and realised that the battery has swolen so much, and that because of the battery pushing the glass away.. the back glass broke.<br> <br> Now because the glass and the battery has broken. Samsung's repair centre has voided my warranty and i need to pay R 800 odd Upfront.. I have logged a case with samsung head office. but it looks like i need to get ahold of the damage reprort and then they will decide.<br> <br> I did not expect this from a R 14000 phone.. WHen you pay that amount of money for a product you would atleast hope its warranty is kept in place for a simple thing like a defective battery.<br> <br>
