Hi,

 

When I got my MacBook, I got the early 2014 MacBook Air, custom configured.
However, taking a brief glance at the serial number on Apple's product
support, it reveals that it's a "mid 2013 model". Also going to about this
mac under the apple menu reveals the same.

However, the invoice and product receipt both say 2014; as well as the box
it came in.

I've read a discussion on the Apple Communities Forum that says this is a
known bug with online configured purchases - the people in China, where
these are built, do not bother changing the firmware to reflect the new
model. I wanted to see if anyone's had this problem as well; it doesn't seem
very Apple-like to forget a major detail like that.

Here's the link to what I read

https://discussions.apple.com/thread/6222193

 

I will be calling AppleCare tomorrow, as this is a pretty serious issue if
I actually have been given an older model that I did not order. I'm slightly
apprehensive, though, as it is past the 14 days that customers  are given to
return their products; on top of that returns of custom-configured MacBooks
are not accepted.

 

If someone has had something similar happen to them, please comment.

 

Thanks.

 

Regards,

Tristan
