    What are you talking about? I have no problem with my Mac, just a cable! I have already said that half the cables are genuine but they have stopped working. I understand that people say buy genuine cables, well I've tried that and I have still a problem.

    All I'm asking is do people have any experience of cables that work well, this is supposed be a money saving website, well I'm trying to save money!

    No!!! They are leased, any problems we go to the leasing company as we pay for support

    you are not listening you have got online/inhouse support


    do the people that repair your mac come to you or do you take a day off work to drop it off,


    the repair people won,t work for the lease company , they will work for APPLE, do you think they would ruin a very profitable repair contract by P$% ing you off!


    therefore you have your own personal apple tech person without having to drive anywhere.

    or change your phone to another apple model that has not got the lead problem

    Again you are not reading my posts, I said that we have onsite support from the leasing company, and yes the guys there work for the leasing company who is hardsoft that are certified to offer Apple support .

    in that case I refer you back to several answers that have been posted by myself and other people ,


    the best quality replacement cables , that are checked to meet tolerances and conform to you Apples product , are indeed manufactured by apple those cables carry a 1 yr warranty (this does not exclude your statutory rights)


    apple do not recommend using non apple supplied cables.
