[00:28]	IsambardPrince	MinceR: The guy from Google wouldn't give me a repair authorization until I got a picture of the phone doing it.
[00:28]	IsambardPrince	So I found a picture of a pixel 8 doing it and sent that.

[00:28]	IsambardPrince	How many times can you say that without it being racist at all?
[00:28]	MinceR	lol
[00:29]	MinceR	"Holy shit, I'm not racist, these people really do all look alike!"
[00:30]	IsambardPrince	MinceR: Now I just have to fool some guy in India so he gives me a number that makes ubreakifix fix this piece of shit.
[00:30]	IsambardPrince	This should be a piece of cake.

[02:47]	IsambardPrince	My conclusion is that Google is doing everything they can to make it unclear who qualifies for the extended repair program and some people with the green screen get a repair and others do not.
[02:47]	IsambardPrince	
[02:47]	IsambardPrince	I saw someone say that even though Google's website says their IMEI is "eligible", they wasted a 40 minute drive to a Google Store to find out that if you bought the stupid thing from T-Mobile initially, it's not covered regardless of what their website says.

[02:47]	IsambardPrince	It appears as though perhaps you are only covered if the IMEI is "eligible" and you bought it as an unlocked phone, straight up, cash, and it never had a carrier lock on it to begin with.
