Nokia review: nokai mobile promo, uk 263

This review was chosen algorithmically as the most valued customer feedback.

Only two days ago I was informed through email that I won a Nokia N95 and 95,000 pounds sterlings. I was curious what this would lead to so I replied to them. They asked me to fill up the Claims Form and finally to choose the payment option for delivery of what I won just as detailed by others. Of course, I don't intend to send any money; but just as I thought, they request for checks or payment for the winning prize delivery. If one sends 200 pounds or more and if a thousand people get victimized, how much total have they accumulated through Internet scam? Why can't Nokia or UK authorities crack these criminals?

Sub: Complaint about Mobile (Model No 1208)
Job no—[protected] dt 23/2/08/08

Dear Sir,

This has reference to the subject cited above. I had purchased a Mobile of Model No 1208 two months back. From the first day onwards, the battery back up is very poor & it gets hanged repeatedly. Last evening, the Test Mode came into the set.

When I had given the set to the Nokia Care, NDSE Part I they said that I shall get it after 10 days, which will be a problem for me without the same.

Kindly exchange the set with a good one or else provide my cash back ASAP.

Regards,

(Pritpal Singh)
