    Received refurbished instead of open box

    It arrived in a bent up box with no bubble wrap what so ever, just bare with sticky tape. I almost kept it but as I was setting it up, I noticed scratches and discoloration on the corner of the screen. Definitely not an open box. It didn’t even have the correct serial number on my receipt. Would’ve been a rip off if I decided not to return it. Then I just ordered a brand new one, didn’t want to take any chances.

    It looked brand-new, and the accessories that came with it looked brand-new. For some reason, I could not get the Xfinity app or Xfinity website to work on it so I returned the iPad to Best Buy. I believe it was because of the previous owner. Even Xfinity could not figure out what was causing the problem.

    Wasted my money. Do not know how to use or even to turn off. Totally different from prior model. Would love to have that one back. Love my iphone but not technical savvy on this ipad. No help available that can teach me the basics .just want ipad to search web, etc. Purchased this for my 80th b'day, so sorry, totally out of my league on this one.
