Is your replacement device really not refurbished units? When I call into Apple Support, all reps clearly mention that replacement device is something coming from your factory and not a refurb from some-other customer. Moreover they explained, replacement devices are something that are pulled from manufacturing line for any minor defects or QA pass failed and fixed and used as replacement units. Well that being said, I was recently replaced with a replacement device. I powered on the device received and started setting up my banking Apps. My Chase App, clearly prompts during the setup that this PHONE is enabled to notifications of another Chase User for this phone, and do you want to override Anyone whos reading this, please help me how to interpret this meaning. Doesn't this sound like it was a refurb phone of some-other user which was replaced to me? [Edited by Moderator]

I wouldn't buy from them, that's for sure. If you want an authentic Apple refurbished iPhone, there is ONLY one place who sells them. And that is Apple itself. No one else has Apple authentically refurbished phones but Apple. NO ONE.
