Dear Qlers , my iphone 6 had a liquid damage and replacement is the only solution. When consulted with Vodafone they were ready for replacement but unfortunately on checking serial number it was of ooredoo. And ooredoo saying there is no such option as replacement.. Totally stressed.... Any opinions what to do ???

@gudone - Approaching Apple Store MAY help. No harm in attempting

I really don't see what the issue is.

if Ooredoo don't offer this service , then that's it.

We all have accidents. Learn and move on .

I think I missed out something. You bought it from Sharaf DG, then when the damage happened you went to Vodafone, and then to Ooredoo?

Try to bring it to Apple Store or Apple's Authorized Distributor. In other countries, they give handset replacement if there is manufacturer defect. However, a liquid damage most likely means user's fault and it's not covered by warranty.

Where did you purchased ? Vodafone or Ooredoo ? Is that under warranty ? Approach again where you purchased it with bill, ask again if it is under warranty, if they didnt agree with you, tell them that " i am going to complaint with consumer department'.
