VZW to replace Tour under warranty?
- I called VZW yesterday looking for help with a problem I have been having with my tour that I recently reactivated. I keep receiving emails that I have previously deleted. I didn't think it was necessarily a problem with the phone itself, but the woman I spoke to said how about we replace the phone under warranty. She said I purchased the phone in 9/11 so it was still under warranty. Reality is I purchased the phone in 9/09. I asked if she was sure it was under warranty and she said it was.
Are there even any Tours left at this point? I remember about 1 1/2 years ago people were receiving Bolds as a warranty replacement for the Tours since the Tours were out of stock.08-02-12 01:40 PMLike 0 - If they are going to replace the phone under warranty, I don't see why you wouldn't want to do that. The 9650 Bold is a great phone, much like the Tour, minus the trackball, and more onboard memory. Everything else is the same. You might get a Tour, but more than likely, it would be a Bold.
I mean you can try to trouble shoot it first of course. What email provider is it? Did you try deleting the account off the Tour, and then re-adding it on? What OS is running on the Tour?08-04-12 11:20 AMLike 0 - This happens frequently with Yahoo or Hotmail accounts. The record pointers get messed up and the BIS detects the new UIDs as being NEW, hence the redelivery.08-04-12 11:38 AMLike 0

I did delete and create new email accounts and did a hard reset and security wipe and nothing worked. Currently on VZW. I believe I am running the current OS approved by VZW.
I cannot believe that my other phone a DROID RAZR Maxx has less email problems than this blackberry.08-04-12 09:56 PMLike 0 - Well they did send me a "like new" tour that seemed a little snappier than my tour, but I continue to have the same problem receiving deleted emails. I knew it wasn't the phone unit itself.

A 9930 would probably offer a much better experience than a Tour. Then again, if you have LTE where you live, no BlackBerry will match the speed of the Droid Razr Maxx, since only Android devices are capable of LTE on VZW.08-04-12 10:18 PMLike 0 - The Blackberry Tour is very old and i think that Verizon will try to sell you some android instead of giving you some new Blackberry phone.
But, if you can get the Bold 9650 then do it..09-04-12 06:12 AMLike 0
