No charger - why should I pay?

[Anonymous]

I'm aware there's no charger included with my HTC One X+ to help save the rain forrests and all that stuff, but the problem is charging from my PC takes at least twice as long.  So I'm forced to pay extra for the inconvience o2 caused me?  That doesn't sound fair at all to me.  I bet o2's "discounted charger" is poor quaility also and doesn't output 1A like the HTC charger does.  I want a genuine HTC charger that charges my phone properly and I shouldn't have to resort to paying £5 on ebay for a proper one.

Couldn't think of a more technical fancy way of saying it

Well, I spoke to 2 different o2 Guru's yesterday and both said go to any o2 store, they'll supply you with a HTC charger.  Went to one today, they said that's not the case but he ordered one for me which will come through the post.  All sorted I guess.

To the guy who asked why I went with o2 (I can't figure out how to quote on this forum), it's because the HTC One X+ deal is quite good, plus you get £50 cashback via QuidCo and I like a good deal.  I usually buy sim free phones and go on GiffGaff but some times contract deals are good, this one only has 500mb of data which isn't great but I should be able to get away with it since I use wifi a lot.

Just an update to this, recieved charger and another USB cable (bonus) and all is well, phone has charged 40% in an hour, not sure what the charger is off but it's white and is 1A like I wanted.  Recieved it a while ago but was on holiday until now, funny thing is the plug prongs were sticking through the packaging so knew what it was before opening.

Got an upgrade for HTC one m8 I was advised it does not come with charger and can use any usb charger. I agreed but only to find out reading the terms and conditions of warranty that if you use a third party or unauthorised charger or accessory will void the manufacturers warranty. Good intention but not good for customers

With an expensive phone why would you want to use a third party charger?
