We purchased a Pixel 8a from Amaysim. The phone freezes constantly, overheats dangerously (50°C+ 🔥), and shuts down repeatedly. They rejected my warranty claim with no explanation, apparently thinking this is “normal.”
Amaysim, do you honestly think a phone that hot is safe?
I told them this is my only phone, and I’m now genuinely concerned for my safety — what happens if I need to ring emergency services and it shuts down?
Returned the phone → no report, no resolution. Emails ignored or meaningless. TIO gave them two weeks to fix it — they did nothing. Escalating now to Fair Trading & ACL.
💸 $500 down the drain. Don’t make the same mistake.
