Never, but holy crap, proper punctuation is your friend. You lost me like halfway through because I just can't read that.

I don't go to Verizon for tech advice, but customer service wise, this is the best cell phone company I have dealt with and I literally have had them all either through work or personal.

Droidforums.net is inhabited by more tech savvy members than all the VZW store technicians put together! If they can't help you here - the store hasn't a prayer! mike :)

I would always do that over the phone to the best of your ability. Get to level two tech support or something.

You screwed yourself leaving the zagg on.

You should have taken it off prior to visiting them because:

1. Now they blame it and your account has likely notes pertaining to it on record now.
2. Verizon can try and void your warranty. Doesn't mean they will, but I've been told more than once that if they catch it on my phone, they will not honor the warranty.

I've had a 50/50 overall customer satisfaction over the phone and at the store.

Depends on who you ask...and a little late to be asking now.

The point is, you never leave something on the phone that they can blame. Ever.

Thats common sense 101.

zagg screen protector voids your warranty
Why would a screen protector void a warranty? Shouldn't it be the opposite?

I didn't say it would, I said they could try and void your warranty.

Here is the thing. If you get hold of someone who knows how they are put on the phone, (aka liquid), they are going to cite that you damaged the phone putting it on. If its just a static cling or some light adhesive, its a little different.

See what I am getting at? They will blame what they can, if you give them the opportunity to.

Edit I should note that I have put Zagg shields on several phones in the past. If I had to get the phone checked out, I peeled it off BEFORE taking it in.

That sucks. I went in the other night because my wife dropped her droid, just off the coffee table, a couple of feet maybe, and noticed an hour later that her screen wouldn't come on. When plugged into the charger the light would come on, but after pulling the battery nothing would happen. They replaced it on the spot without question.

Oh, O.K. I said that because INSANENEIVIESIS said "it voids your warranty".

Thanks for clarifying, though.
