Apple is quite peculiarly trying to hush up the scandal around the tanned iPhone smartphone, reports infpx.ru with reference to The Times. In order to get money for the exploded Apple IPOD, 11 -year -old British and her father, it was proposed to sign papers about non -disclosure of secrets.
The girl’s father patiently went through all instances and even talked on the phone with the director of the local branch of the company. As a result, a letter came to the address of the owner of the burned -out apparatus of Ken Stanborough from Apple.
The content of the message surprised the victim a lot: the representatives of the company agreed to return the money for the spoiled player only on the condition that the incident would remain confidential, and Ken will remain silent. At the same time, according to the wording in the letter, the violation of the agreement may lead to "satisfaction of Apple's claims in court."
“This is simply outrageous: they dared to sign the verdict to our family,” Ken said that he hadn’t signed a letter. “If we accidentally told about it, they would have sucked us. We did not require compensation, we just ask us to return our money to us.”
The player was presented with 11 -year -old girl Ellie Stanborough her father Ken, and just a few days after the purchase, he began to heat up literally in the hands of the young owner.
“At first he began to hiss, and then I felt him heated in my hand. The steam began to go from him,” Ellie said. “Then I threw it into the courtyard, where after half a minute he exploded, taking off three meters up.”
As it turned out, Apple is not the first time silent about such cases: the American Reporter published more than 800 pages of documentation from the archives of the consumer security commission (Consumer Product Safety Commission). According to CPSC experts, the problem of explosive iPod lies in defective lithium-ion batteries.
