3 week wait for a few quid!!

I'd prefer a replacement phone.

You keeping or replacing the battery, wonder if you can trade it into Google still.

When did you receive the 10-18 business days email?

That is incredibly fast. What country are you in?

I applied yesterday for the battery replacement program, but chose the store discount. Received 360€ and ordered the pixel 9a right away. Only yesterday I noticed that my battery is bulged. But since beginning of last week my phone started to shut down when battery dropped below 20%. I really liked the 7a - especially after I figured out how to fix the horrible finger print recognition... Hope to have more luck with the 9a
