I am almost an hour away from an Apple store and am 2 months away from my warranty expiring on my phone. Need to get this thing replaced asap

does Apple offer free return shipping when replacing Lightning cables?

Completely free. Replacement cable is shipped to you. Inside that package will also include a prepaid envelope so that you can return the defective cable.

They also require your CC info. If they decide the damage is your fault, you pay for the cable.

Yup, well they told me it was just to ensure they got the other one back. No worries about that though it's been mostly connected to a dock and is otherwise super clean white outer cord is just cheap and split.
