After reading a few of your dim witted posts, may I suggest you stop posting? You have zero clue about what you're posting..

Ok, how can you disagree with any of that? Do you know WHY law firms actually file CALs? & what happens afterwards?

Does it? I though class actions had to be certified by a judge; so filing one is not the same as having it certified. I believe the only advantage is you get the first shot at representing the class. I just find it hard to understand what is the harm or tort that occurred.

There wasn't ANY harm OR law broken; American lawyers files COUNTLESS CALs, so they can bill the taxpayers for the amount of hours they spend "working" to get you a "$10-off-on-your-next-purchase coupon," while they bank MILLIONS of dollars.
& anyone here who does not know that, & argues with me, is a complete moron.

Here's my experience so far with the Upgrade Program.

1. Almost non-existent stock on launch night. 0 Jet Black in 7 Plus.
2. Called Saturday (9/10) night once I noticed the website changed. Specialist took my info and model preference. Said I would be called back within 48 hours with an update.
3. I preemptively called Apple a few minutes ago to check for an update. After 2 hours on hold, an iPhone Upgrade Program rep told the rep that answered my call that they did have my information, but "48 hours" didn't include weekends. So I guess I might not hear back until Wednesday?

Not sure I really agree with the class-action lawsuit, but still very disappointed with the way Apple has run this so far.

OK, your point is fair, but, HOW does a CAL help you? It doesn't.
[doublepost=1474000949][/doublepost]Read the other class-action lawsuits on here, & tell me HOW they helped consumers. Apple (& every other company,) should be forced to issue recalls of defective products, or fix them, or change contracts, NOT be sued for millions by legal ******s!!!

There wasn't ANY harm OR law broken;

I think we are in agreement on that point; Apple didn't do anything that violated the IUP contract; despite all the hurt feelings.

American lawyers files COUNTLESS CALs, so they can bill the taxpayers for the amount of hours they spend "working" to get you a "$10-off-on-your-next-purchase coupon," while they bank MILLIONS of dollars.

Taxpayers don't pay the fees, that is paid by the company sued if the plaintiff wins or settles. CAL's have a place but as with anything get abused as well. For example, the PVC water pipe suit and settlement resulted in homeowners who's water main broke getting it fixed for free; an example of a reasonable settlement for a defective product.
