    Store manager Cedar Snider is as shady as they come...totally unethical...treats elderly customers like they are less than and when I took my Dad back in twice the week afterward of his first attempt with her to get a new phone on his own it became clear that this store does not care about its customers... My Dad initially went in for phone replacement as his 10 year old smart phone completely died... Cedar sold him on a new Motorola claiming it would be similar to his old phone but it wasn't anywhere close and was too confusing for my Dad... She charged him a $25 phone set up fee and she didn't even get the phone set up for him...and a $55 fee for a screen protector which wasn't even the right protector for the new phone... So he calls me to take him back in to help him...we get there first thing in the morning and they have a newer employee who has no clue what he was doing and he was the only one there so no one to train or help him help us...we still couldn't get the phone working and alls he could offer was a refund but he said that he couldn't even do that because he didn't know how to process a refund... So we ended up coming back a 3rd time today... This time the shady Cedar Snider was there again along with the employee who didn't know what he was doing the last time...Cedar was extremely condescending and totally unhelpful...we decided we wanted to turn in the Motorola phone she had set him up with 2 visits ago and look at getting a basic flip phone... She proceeds to tell me there is a $50 restocking fee for the Motorola...at first I'm like that's ridiculous but whatever ....the cost of doing business with Verizon these days but while I was thinking about it waiting on her to get her act together I realized how ludicrous it is that there's a $50 restocking fee for a phone that was free in the first place , we got it free since my dad hadn't been given a phone for 10 years...shady Cedar digs in and says there's no way around the fee I said give me a break...that my dad could just buy the new flip phone as he will have to anyway ....hold on to the Motorola he doesn't like and resell it online...at first cedar still dug in about the fee but eventually back tracks and starts to tell me what I already tried telling her multiple times that my Dad could hold on to the Motorola and resell it later to avoid the fee... Now trying to get dear Cedar to give us info on available flip phones for my dad was like pulling teeth...finally got her to confirm they have one kind in stock and that we would have to wait 10 minutes while the time lock on her safe disengages... Meanwhile while we are waiting another customer walks in...instead of having the other employee take the other customer cedar proceeds to help her leaving us waiting and waiting and waiting....then when she finally wraps it up with the lady she takes a phone call which she was on for at least 15 minutes...finally she gets back to us and brings the New flip phone out for us to look at... Again she was very unhelpful and condescending when we were trying to ask questions about the phone...we finally decided let's just do it while we are here ...the phone was like $130 no promotions on flip phones according to dear Cedar... Before processing the purchase I asked Cedar to explain why our bill had gone up over $20 last month...again she was no help and had an attitude about it...she didn't know how to read a bill on her computer so she made me bring up my bill in my Verizon app...but even in doing that she still couldn't answer the question... finally frustrated with her total lack of knowledge and horrible customer service skills I told her to just activate my dads phone to which she got huffy with me trying to say I was being mean and I had no right to be that way....mind you I had been biting my tongue through all these interactions to keep from being mean so I responded that all I did was tell you to activate my dads phone..if you think that was rude then you are in the wrong job field of customer service as you clearly can't handle the basics... She proceeds to tell us to get away from the front counter and go sit down...guess it makes her feel good bossing around an 85 year old man who can barely walk and his son... I proceed to say worst customer service as we walk back to seats across the room at a table to which she has a bitch fit and said what did you just say to me what did you just say!! I've got it all in camera and I can have your account flagged ...to which I said I don't even think you heard what I said but go ahead and check your cameras but she didn't... (REVIEW TOO LONG WILL CONTINUE ON NEXT REVIEW) Continued....

    The staff is incompetent. They made billing charges that are inaccurate, so one has to waste time disputing them. They are a disgrace!

Went to him for a phone battery replacement. He is local, and honestly, he has low prices ($45 +tax for the battery replacement). He told me that his battery is not original product (ie, not Apple battery). That's fine, I just needed my phone to hold a charge. The new battery he replaced with was WORSE than my old battery. It went from 94% to 70% in less than an hour! I went back the next day, and his mannerism was abysmal. He told me, that's a new battery, must be a problem with your phone processor. I didn't want to risk trying another "un-original" phone battery through him and asked for a refund instead. He begrudgingly refunded $40, minus $5 for service fee. As I was leaving his kiosk, he blurted, "And don't come back." Like why? It was unwarranted, he could've just said nothing and let it be. Of course I wouldn't come back after such an experience. So I left, not only with a faulty battery, but also upset by his rude mannerism. The guy was angry at me for his own faulty product. And then gave me attitude for it... ;( Anyways, lesson learned to not go cheap. Went to Apple Store later that day, they ran diagnostics. Everything is fine with my phone. New battery ($69), and surprise surprise. It works just fine! I would advise anyone to avoid this place -- it's not worth the risk, nor the time and frustration, and overall horrendous customer service.

Asked a man with glasses in the back, and he was pretty rude and was just like we're very busy, which is fine, but then what do we have appointments for? Then he checked to see where I was on the list and saw that I never got checked in and my appointment was cancelled. He was not apologetic and just said it's going to restart me in the queue now even though I had checked in, and I would have a long wait. I didn't want to pay the mall's new fee for parking, so I decided to cancel and he very brusquely did so and walked away. I normally am very chill about customer service, but for a corporation like Apple at a mall as upscale as UTC, I would expect a lot better.

    I have mixed feelings every 2 years when my contract is up. I am excited to get a new Iphone. I…read morehate going through the process of ordering a new phone through AT&T. I looked at the options and picked an Iphone 13 Pro with 256GB storage. Price was $568 with the business price and 2 year commitment discount. After a week I checked on the status. Turns out the order was in a frozen state. An AT&T rep had to cancel the order and re-order it. Phone showed up a week later. Good timing as my Fuji XT-2 just broke. I like how the Iphone 13 Pro has 3 lenses. I use the telephoto and light wide angle lenses often. The very wide angle lenses I don't like as I don't like the distorted view. The resolution and colors are very good. The macro function is very good. Combined with the amazing minimum focusing distance you can get very close and take photos of small things. Overall I prefer the image quality and the ability to modify raw images the Fuji produces but the Iphone fits in my pocket. In comparison to my old Iphone 11 the 13 is faster and has a brighter and clearer screen. Battery life is better. The 256GB of storage will come in handy if I decide to use my phone exclusively as my camera. Right now there is 198GB free. Carplay works great in my HR-V. I'm glad I upgraded as the battery in my Iphone 11 was not holding a charge very well.
