Not sure if we are allowed links but there is a report that the iPhone 6 plus can bend. Anyone (lucky enough to have one) experienced this yet.

Don't mess with stupid people. They will bring you down to their level and beat you with experience.

Yeah had this soon after getting it. Neither Vodafone nor Apple were interested, the most common symptom is the touchscreen becomes unresponsive with a grey flickering bar at the top.

The problem is not the phone becoming warped in itself, most phones of any make and model bend a little. Apple were forced to admit earlier this month that the solder used in the 6 Plus models was cheap and nasty, and very fragile to developing cracks under normal use. The very slightest of flex can break the poor quality solder they used during manufacture.

I have had to live with infuriating issue for over a year. It's a manufacturing fault and Apple are 100% liable for repair/replacement costs.
