Family › Re: My Wife Changed 2 Weeks After Wedding!! by IMASTEX: 2:41pm On Aug 04, 2019
GrabHisBalls:
I don't pity some of you when you end up with bad wives. This your wife is everything bad. No character, no home training, no respect for elders, and you want to say you didn't notice any of these while dating even if she's the best pretender in town.

Marriage is for better, for worse. Carry your cross.
He most have seen this trait in her before marriage. The following reasons will always remain the excuse.
* She has spent on me
* She go a good look
* Infatuation
* She is pregnant
* She will change her attitude after marriage, etc

I bought my Nokia X6 from Jumia at N62,000+, found out that the Phone had a problem of heating up, jejely called Jumia, who sent in their guy to retrieve the phone and jejely refunded me in full.
You didn't go for another after the replacement? But did you observe any difference in any form outside the overheating problem.

Men. That is cool just #500 for waybill. How long is the delivery time? Can one just order from any vendor on the platform or it has to be via a third party.

That depends. I had a Nokia 8 with the classic half screen problem.

They fixed it under warranty with a new screen and the same thing happened again.

The permanent fix was to give me a new board and screen as Nokia has advised.

The second time however, i checked the imei and refused to collect the phone plus it was almost going out of warranty.

Guess what, I eventually got a brand new Nokia 8. So their warranty makes sense. I saved myself over 40k. If I had bought that phone anywhere else, they would not have touched it at all.
The main question is, can it be fixed locally. In the event of eventuality. Warranty won't be available for phones imported. That is certain

People used Xiaomi for years before it became officially available in Nigeria and they didn’t die, my brother if what you want is available abroad then by all means buy Tyrone that’s abroad except you feel like there’s a viable alternative here. What she said was bullshît apart from the warranty ish though cool
Thanks
Warranty is secondary for me.

Sometimes, it wonders me if you guys take time to read through post or probably understanding is an issue. The phone is yet to be bought. The matter was raised here only as a debate. You have neither counter with points or agree with the sales rep. All you say it wash brain or brainwash. How it that meaningful to the post?! Gos!!

Why is everyone saying "brainwash"... she gave sensible reasons , instead of shouting brainwash , why not just counter her reasons and/or suggest better alternatives......

Thanks. I wonder what people call brainwash. I didn't do any buying from the girl. I brought the matter here for holistic reviews from experienced person. More like a debate, and all some will say is brainwash without giving alternative reasons. I wonder how some take pass primary school.

she just guy u. undecided


mind you Nokia warranty service center in Nigeria is a scam. i bought Nokia 5, one of the sim stopped showing, took it to them, they kept it for over 3 weeks, they called to say it's ok, as I got home same thing happened again, i took it back they kept for another 2 weeks. still no show. then I asked for a replace, na dia fight start.

if u see a phone that u like online, buy it. even if there is a problem with it they refund you ur money. jumia has done it Ali Express has done it. these sites are far better than the shitty warranty centers in this country.
I didn't allow her to guy me oh. That was why I brought the matter to the Senate "Niaraland". Where I can get reasonable guide from experience like you shared.

Lol. At the bolded. You go fight them grin

Thanks for the advise

1. The main difference between Global rom or version and Chinese rom is the Network band and OS update. Some Chinese version only accept CDMA or TCDMA and not our WCDMA or HSPDA.

2. To my understanding carrier version does not have anything to do with quality only little changes in the OS.

3. I believe someone has given u the reason for that.
Thanks for the tips

by that i mean that your person on jumia is not selling you a refurb phone as new. i can refer you to the guy i use to buy off amazon. i have been doing business with him for over a year, with over 3m in procurement transactions. he is also on nairaland.

the most important thing is that any phone you buy must be clearly unlocked / not locked to any carrier, and clearly a GSM phone. thats all.
Thanks for being explicit in your observation. I was intending a direct order from Jumia platform myself not via any agent. Meanwhile, Please forward me the the contact of the person you buy form via Amazon.

The sales girl is right though. I once took a US purchased iPhone to the apple store in the UK for battery repairs and was told by apple that they’ll need to wait for parts form the US before they can fix it.
Really, but I was thinking the phone is a global brand that should ordinary be available anywhere & anytime.

na wa ooo , d sales girl want u to buy Tecno ,infinix or itel from them...guy wake up..I prefer overseas phone cos s durable & parts available...
Well, I wasn't convinced with her tales. The more reasons for the topic. It was a plaza with different phone brand stand. She was a Nokia brand sales rep. She was only trying to convince me to get the Nokia phone available in the Nigeria open market that she obviously has.
Meanwhile, the bolded are not an option. As I just disposed one of their brand I was using recently. Their motive is just to push up anything into the Nigeria market with zero value for money. A phone I bought with over 100k. In 2 years, I couldn't get a battery replacement. I was told their company have stop it's product. Hence the parts may not be available again. As said by their Carl Care.

It differs from phone to phone, everything is explained in the Nokia 5.1 Plus review. Not sure if it's the same quality but i haven't had any issues yet. Chinese version isn't covered by warranty.
Thanks for the feedback. I saw your review. You got the Chinese version. I think I am more relaxed knowing there isn't any issue with your usage of it. I heard when you said Glo 4g & Mtn 4g didn't work because they had to flash in the Global version. Is that application to all the Chinese version gotten from overseas? Or the Network band is according to the original phone specifications. Thanks

I think seeing every other person as a brethren & a follow brother/sister in Christ will help a lot. At least, not to place or expect too much from a human with mortal body like you. And most importantly, taking Christ as your one & only spiritual father/mentor won't cause any form of disappointment, tiredness, in the christian race.

Christ is one. All this so many denominations will only cause more harm.

Here is what I was told today at a phone vendor's place. As I inquired of a particular Nokia make, that hasn't been lunched in Nigeria. Nokia X71 (8.1 plus). "It was obvious the phone can only be ordered online from overseas" I told the vendor. Then she repied as follows:

Phone brands "Nokia" ordered from overseas via Jumia is without warranty. Secondly, It is not a Nigeria specification. Hence, There might be a challenge if there are need for repair. As the exact parts may not be readily available at the Nigeria Nokia Care Centre. Except the person send it back to the country it was ordered from whenever there is a need for repair.
Is the above claims true?
I was almost paying for the one she offered as against my desired spec.

1. What are the differences between global version & the chanise version in phones?

2. Does version have anything to do with the phone's quality?

3. I noticed a wide price gap at a Nokia brand outlet today as against the Jumia online price. Though, that of Jumia is an order from overseas. Does this have anything to do with quantity?



Please how true are the above submissions. I've been doing a little research on what brand & make of phone to purchase within a budget of 100k to 150k. Though, I was kind of considering Nokia & Huawei phones.

Mods you can help to escalate it. Really need to get clarifications.
