Horrible establishment. (Trafford Centre store)
I purchased a case and screen protector for my iPhone 17 Pro Max from Mobilise Group, and unfortunately the experience has been far from positive. The case is noticeably poor quality, the volume buttons are extremely loose and rattle with even light use, which makes the case feel cheaply made.
Although the sales assistant was friendly and the conversation was pleasant, I specifically requested the cheapest screen protector. Instead, a “premium” one was applied without clearly explaining the cost beforehand, which turned out to be £25. The quality feels substandard, more like plastic than tempered glass. To make matters worse, after a minor drop onto a soft surface, the bottom-left corner of the protector cracked. This is especially disappointing given that the salesperson emphasised its durability and assured me it would withstand small drops. Additionally, the salesperson aggressively flexed the screen protector during the demonstration, applying so much pressure that the first one snapped in his hands before fitting a second one and repeating the same demonstration. I believe this may have compromised the structural integrity of the protector before it was even applied.
I will be returning tomorrow to request a refund for both items, as I believe I was sold products that do not meet reasonable quality expectations.
After going back to get a refund:
Avoid this place at all costs. I have never been spoken to as disrespectfully as I was today by a member of staff, particularly the manager. He was completely unreasonable and repeatedly used irrelevant analogies to justify refusing a refund for the extremely poor-quality screen protector. His main argument was, “Go to Apple, buy a screen protector, break it, and try to get a refund,” which had nothing to do with the issue at hand. He also told me to go out and find a cheap screen protector so he could compare it with the one they originally fitted, a request that made absolutely no sense given the circumstances.
He then attempted to belittle me by asking, “Do you know the purpose of a screen protector?” an unnecessarily condescending remark clearly intended to undermine me rather than resolve the issue. He acted as though I should be grateful that he offered to refund the case and replace the screen protector, even though I made it clear that I felt misled and wanted a full refund.
To make matters worse, he insinuated that I was attempting to scam the store by breaking the protector intentionally to force a refund. At that point, I had no interest in continuing a conversation with someone so dismissive and unprofessional.
In the end, I handed back both the case and the screen protector and walked out, as I was not prepared to deal with such disrespectful and condescending behavior from a manager.
