Anyone Else Had The Email From Google About Pixel 6a Battery Fire Risk?

I got the email and checked the price of a replacement battery with Ismash, their authorised repairer. The cost of the battery replacement was £49 and I left the repair in my basket. After 2 days I got an email offering me £5 off, which I ignored. After another 2 days I got another email offering me £10 off. So I think I'll take the money from Google and pay for my own replacement. Hope this helps someone else to get money off their repair

Well when you have a run of bad luck you have a run of bad luck!

My new Pixel 9a arrived this afternoon & guess what they sent me a faulty one. It keeps going round the set up wizard so I've been on google chat customer service for the last hour & managed after much do this do that to get them to refund me.

That's 14 days after they get this one back. It says perform a factory reset. It won't shift out of the set up wizard so I can't. 

And my printer is not printing changed the ink cartridge & it's still not printing. 

Ho Hum!

Yes, took the option of taking the cash compensation. I wish I didn't because the battery performance is awful. I had to take it to ISmash to get the battery replaced. Ismash took advantage and increase there price from £49 to £69.
