Help! iPad 3 on LTE in UK. Question
So, today marks a bit of an epiphany for me.
I have the iPad 3 or New iPad. I bought it when it came out here in the UK and it was advertised as 4G.
I understood that it wouldn't work on 4G until a 4G network launched.
So, our first 4G network (EE) launches on October 30th and I discover after all this time of waiting that it won't support the Ipad 3 due to the frequencies being different.
I can't believe I am the only one who is coming to this realisation and the question has to be, what on earth can be done.
I am tech savvy, if the radio in the device won't operate on our LTE frequencies then it won't work unless it has a new radio.
What were Apple thinking?
Anyway, I digress. Has anyone had any luck pursuing Apple for bad advertising here in the UK?
I just got off the phone with Apple support and had a great chat with a guy in the states. He was gobsmacked and called it false advertising.
So.... I'm not after a refund, but I think I should be given the opportunity to have a compatible device when one becomes available.
Thoughts?
