A HUSBAND and wife from Cornwall say they are at their wits' end after ordering an £800 iPhone 15, only to receive a Belkin Powerbank.

Lianne suspects that the person packaging the iPhones has realized they weigh the same and are the same size as a power bank, so has sent the package out and stolen the phone. Lianne says Apple's response has made her and Sam feel like criminals.
Lianne said: "It's just awful. You couldn't make it up. We really can't believe it and can't believe Apple is with the carrier not willing to do anything about it.
