My name is Atieno M O from Kenya. I have looked at these complaints on the mobile promo, but I have not perceived your response to these promos. Is there one that is true. Is Tega Marino a real person? And the Nokia Promo a real thing? Here is the email I got recently and I have noticed from numerous complaints that many people have received the same. If it fraud, what are you people doing about it?

If you could kindly advise me if this is real. I received an SMS from the number +[protected], that I have won an amount R500, 000.00 from Nokia Promo. My refernce number is 01NK and the contact person is Mr. Williams on [protected]. Suspicious that it is a scam I called the number and a male of a Nigerian accent answered and wanted to know how I would like the price to be paid. I offered to rather collect the price in person as a cheque and he asked me to bring with a copy of my id, a police report of clearance for criminal record as well as proof of residential address.

What I do not understand is, why is it so difficults to catch these people, that there are so many of them people who are using cell number and yet we have been encouraged to rica and threatened that our service will be discontinued if we do not. If rica was intended to catch criminals, why is that it is so difficult to catch this criminals. Where do this people obtain our contact details and are they not going to eventually get hold of our residential addresses to come and further their criminal activities in our own home.

I personally feel failed by our crime prevention units. I am providing this information so that the crimnals can be followed into their criminal hide outs and face the might of the law.

Hi! I have the same issue with Nokia. Can you help me with this one and gove some advise or suggestions on what to do.

I just purchase Nokia X7 this Feb 20, 2017 at one of the retailer of Nokia products. Then after a day of trying the unit, i noticed that it is overheating everytime I use it esp when browsing. However, I am browsing not more than an hour and I am not using the phone that much. It also drains so fast.

Considering the fact that it is said to be BRAND NEW, it should never be like that. After 4 days of still giving it a change, I decided to bring it back to the store where I purchase it then they refer me to NOKIA CARE CENTER. I was told that they will check for it and it will take 5days to 2 weeks.

Come Feb. 28, I didn't got any feedback from them and I don't have any idea what is happening. I decided to visit the center, and I was being informed that the repair status is ON GOING. So, i gave them the consideration of having it repaired. days passed til it reached the maximum time given for the repair, same thing are being discussed that it is ON GOING.One of the call I made, they said that Feb 28, they are still WAITING FOR PARTS bec it is now needed to have a replacement for some of the electronic parts of it. Another CONSIDERATION for me!

I'm on the point of being irate and they escalate and expedite the process. I was coordinating with Nokia and the manager of the STORE. After almost a month of waiting for my phone where it has been repaired and now ready for pick up. I am very excited of having it.

Suddenly, I found out that another problem incurred the unit. The MEMORY CARD slot now don't detect any memory card. and it hangs every time I remove the mmc (means memory card) and ALSO, it takes time to load whenever restarting it. Considering another fact that it has just been repaired!

I went back to Nokia and spoke with one of the CSR in charge. they tried to check on the mmc then the rep found out that it has been corrupted (which I NEVER use after giving the phone to the CENTER). I went to the Store to let them know what happened. We tried what the rep form Nokia did. and even insert another mmc to the unit. it is still not detecting ANY mmc.

Now, I am about to have replacement for the unit and for the mmc. and the MANAGER of the STORE said that, they can't replace it. and I assume that since I put a password on the mmc, the manager don't want to replace it . and also for the unit. I was being turn around and go back and forth to their office.

Until they book in again the unit to have it check. And I was being informed that if they will have a replacement, it is just the mother board where it WILL BE same as NEW. I have no choice since they don't want to replace it.

Now, I don't have trust to NOKIA and even regret of purchasing their products.
