I don't think so especially as BB is known for pinging plus I'm currently using one (seller refub.). Moreover, there's seller refurbished and there's manufacturer refurbished, though the previous is more commonly found as opposed to the latter which is scarce but is as good as new.

THERE ARE NO DISADVANTAGE TO BUYING REFURBISHED PHONES ,ITS JUST LIKE BUYING A BRAND NEW DEVICE, MOST REFURBISHED PHONES ARE ACTUALLY UNUSED CUSTOMER RETURNS AND ARE ACTUALLY NEW IN THE SENSE....THE REASON THEY ARE CHEAP IS BECAUSE MANUFACTURER'S SELL THEM CHEAP JUST TO CLEAR THEIR STOCK...

THIS IS FALSE..REFURBISHED PHONES ALWAYS COMEs WITH ORIGINAL BATTERIES...ALWAYS CHECK THE AUTHENTICITY OF THE BATTERY BEFORE BUYING THE DEVICE , BECAUSE MOST SELLERS ARE KNOWN TO SWAP ORIGINAL BATTERY FOR FAKES .
