Hello,
I purchased my new iPhone in the beginning of October. Wanting to keep my new, pretty white iPhone nice, I immediately began researching cases.
I decided to purchase a white incase slider (http://www.goincase.com/products/detail/slider-case-cl59056). I went to my local apple store and it was in stock! Everything about the trip was successful (except that the screen protector I wanted was out of stock).
I went against my better judgment & let the apple associate who helped me just put the case on my phone and I left the store with a fully protected iPhone.
Well, I got home and was playing with the case and I could not get the cover off to save my life! This posed a problem because I still wanted the anti-glare screen protector, and I would need to remove the case to apply it to my phone!
So I went back to my apple store the next week and another sales associate attempted to help me with my problem. There was NO success! He even took my phone back to the "geniuses" and he returned with no forward progress.
The "geniuses" suggested getting the phone cold in order to shrink the plastic of the phone. When I got home, I wrapped my phone in a paper towel and did what any sane person would do & stuck my phone in my refrigerator!
I only left it in there for a few minutes as I was worried about killing my beloved iPhone. That did not work. So I took it one step further and stuck it in the "quick freeze" part of my freezer...still no success.
I've only thought of one more option, which is to use a rubber jar opener to get a grip on the phone. (I have to get a rubber jar opener now).
Regardless, this is beyond ridiculous! I am so furious!
I just wanted to pick some brains on this message board for suggestions before I flip my lid at the apple store later this week.
Any insight will be GREATLY appreciated.
Thank you in advance!
