Today, I took my iPod to Walmart to replace the battery. They tell me to call Apple. I go home again and call Apple. They tell me to call Walmart. I call Walmart. They tell me to bring it in. FML

8- agreed they could have called apple from walmart wth.

#24 why would they do that? they didn't know they're going to be told to go to Walmart. If i were OP I would also go back home and call from there.

Welcome to the world of "taking no responsibility".

11- actually that's walmarts fault not apples. and they should have gone to apple first because the people are dicks "welcome walmart get your shit and get out"

It's Walmart's fault trust me. Apple is so much better with customer service.

Apple isn't so bad, they replaced my iphone4 when it got smashed;)

Thank you for the comments in support of Apple. We really do go above and beyond to support our customers. Everyone in my department are such sweethearts and we tend to get the most frustrated customers as we're the front line. Now, I will tell you one thing, if the iPod was purchased at the Walmart along with Walmart's extended protection, then we would refer the customer there as they would receive money in return for the item to essentially get it replaced through Walmart's insurance. But either way, Walmart cannot replace the battery. They can only redistribute the protection information to the customer and then that's handled elsewhere. (They are an Apple Authorized Retailer, but not an Apple Authorized Service Provider.) source(s): Worked for Walmart, and now I work for Apple.

wallmart sucks.... I Never buy any electronics there
