They're going to deny it or say something crafty like they did with the iCloud thing, just watch ....

Edit: They already have

Quote:

Apple later issued a statement: “We’re aware of a Bank of America issue impacting a very small number of Apple Pay users. They’re working on a fix that will be available shortly and reversing any duplicate transactions.”

Note the use of “they’re” – seems like no one’s willing to take the blame for this one yet.

I knew you were trouble is playing in my head as I read those articles.

The double charging was an issue with the BANKS, not Apple. The banks themselves have acknowledged that. Apple Pay is a new, innovative technology that's the first successful attempt at NFC-wallet integration.

As far as that "very widespread" bug found, that only affects people with over 700 applications installed and only the 128GB 6 Pluses. You really think that many people have 700 apps? Please.

iPhone 6 is Apple's most successful iPhone yet and of course the pressed and obsessed will find anything to discredit and complain about them with.

Do you have any idea how the technology actually works? They can't just "steal you ****". And MANY people are already using Apple Pay. It's by far the best attempt at a mobile wallet yet.

"Apple Pay is off to an amazing start and customers are loving the easy, secure and private way to pay. We're aware of a Bank of America issue impacting a very small number of Apple Pay users. They're working on a fix that will be available shortly and reversing any duplicate transactions."

Quote:

Bank of America is in the process of correcting a technical error that resulted in a subset of its customers getting charged twice when they attempted to use the new Apple Pay mobile payment service, according to a person familiar with the matter. The company expects to have a fix in place today for the problem, which happened between the bank and at least one payment network and did not involve Apple, this person added. Company spokeswoman Tara Burke told Re/code that the error affected about 1,000 Apple Pay transactions.

Welp.

Your point being?

the people who don't go on and on about dodecacore processors and 8k screens aren't like a "talking Android ad fam"?

I'm correcting false information. I guess that's only okay when it's an Android fan going after Apple, not the other way around.

Even though we have to acknowledge that not all of these things are their fault or even true, it's pathetic that they wash their hands in some of these cases and blame others for errors they've committed.
