My type cover does not work and I left my surface aside the battery drained. I put it in the socket and the type cover worked. What will it be?

    I haven't come to that conclusion, YET, as their are people complaining about

    battery issues who have working typecovers.

    I wish I had a solution...

    > the typecover problem and the battery drain problem are linked

    That's what I've worked out now that I've chased up so many threads on Surface problems. My battery drain problem was happening for quite some time before the typecover problem. I notice the battery drain when I'm traveling and when I'm home it's plugged in so not noticeable.

    I don't have a real solution for you. I do not think the $600 they charge for

    refurb out of warranty replacements is reasonable. Think about

    Bill gates is rich!

    He does not care about my Surface and my work.

    My Surface PRO 3 USD 550,00

    Since my word will not solve anything, I would have wanted to join multiple users with the same problem and sue that company.

    Blog IT Microsoft?

    I have an iPhone 6 and I can change the battery for a very low price! Apple admit their problems.

    I tried that at least 20 times, and it is useless.  It NEVER has found any problems.
