Hello love bugs! This weekend has been absolutely crazy, I've barely been home! Gaah I hate when its your day off and you aren't even home! Let me share with you just how insane its been for me and Monkey!
So Monkeys phone has been crapping out on him (probably because he's had it a million years) so being the great girlfriend that I am, I spend hours looking on the Facebook yard sale for a good bargain. Well I finally find an iPhone 6s for $250. So I message the guy and he agreed to meet us that night. So we pull up to the McDonald's and the guy calls and says he at the McDonald's all the way around town. So we speed over there and get the phone.
Once we have the phone, we look and theres a password on the phone. Monkey just types in some random numbers and the phone becomes disabled (naturally). Oh, and to top it off, everything is in Spanish. So we get home and spend hours trying to restore it on iTunes (which is where you factory reset it) and it kept saying that the iPhone can not be found and I'm like yes it can be found, it's right here in my hands. After we got nowhere with that we went to sleep.
Saturday morning we took it to Best Buy for the Geek Squad to help us. We spent an extra $40 to have them remove the lock. After an hour or so walking around the mall waiting for them to finish removing the lock, we finally get the phone back. When we unlock it and go to set it up, the guy had an activation lock on it which requires his Apple ID and password. So we call the guy literally 30 times and text him and leave him voicemails and of course, we never hear back. We are going to call Apple Monday morning and see if they can help, if not we have a piece of crap phone and we are out $300.
Oh! I almost forgot, Monkey took his SIM card out of his phone and put it in the new one to see if it would work, and then when he went to go put it back into his old phone, it locked up his phone and it wouldn't work so he had to call AT&T to have it unlocked. And apparently it said that the phone had been stolen even thought it hadn't. But we got that all worked out... luckily!
Needless to say, it has been a crazy weekend and we still haven't got that phone working yet. But wish us luck for tomorrow with talking to Apple! How was your weekend? Was it as crazy as mine or was it relaxed and calm? Let me know in the comment bar below!
XOXO
