I had to send off my phone for a new battery yesterday and now I don't have one AMA!

What kind of place do you live in? When I smashed my screen a while ago I booked it in at a place in the city centre, and they replaced my battery while I was there I believe, only took around an hour or something. This was pre-COVID though so maybe they're shut now?

All apple shops local to me (and within a reasonable distance) are closed due to lockdown so, I can't walk in and replace it. =(

So this was my only option. Live in a small village a few miles outside a *hithole of a town. =)

Ah damn that's so unlucky! I hope you get it back ASAP.

At least we're not really going anywhere at the minute 😅

Yeah except I recently landed a job (have yet to start though) as I have received news that the lab isn't open yet and so I'm essentially being paid to sit on my ass until an email comes in (can't rely on calls now) telling me where to go as I don't have a timetable. It's a covid-19 analysis lab. =)

Left my PGCE course in December 2019 just before covid hit and was seriously considering replacing my phone battery while spending a couple of weeks at my student accommodation before I lost it to get out of the house for a while (before Apple shops shut), was kicking myself when lockdown hit again a few months later!

How much does it cost to replace a phone battery?

Do you think that your are going to die as a result? Rip

How are you going survive without Internet for a while?😅

£56 with delivery (to send the box to me, send it back to them and them to send that phone back to me). Yes daylight robbery...

Woah 😳 that's a lot of money for a cheap battery!!

Hey, got me a couple of reps so, worth it!...
