How did iPhone street get here?
The celebrity endorsed retailer was experiencing mounting pressure on social media for not responding to customer feedback.
The feedback was exclusively on dysfunctional iPhones that had just been purchased from the retailer.
However, the mounting pressure climaxed when a tikToker user @Lordhezion took to the platform illustrating the fraud customers were talking about.
iPhone street would later follow up with a statement which neither took responsibility nor addressed customer dissatisfaction.
Despite Hon jaguar coming clean about the shortcomings of his business, TikTok users have flooded the app to share their experiences with the retailer.
