Or you can take it to the Apple retail store and they can most likely replace it there for you for that fee and you won't have to wait for shipping of the replacement product.
BE careful what you mention to Apple. They may focus in on the wrong issue(s).
The phone is jailbroken? That doesn't sound like your problem.
The battery is dead? Is it dead or just drained from not being able to be charged? The $99 sounds like the battery replacement charge.
The charger port is broken? This sounds like the real issue. This is what you need to tell Apple. Will it be covered under warranty? It depends on why it broke. Was it a product defect or did you drop/abuse it? This will determine if it is covered under warranty.
It was charging and my lil sister stepped on the cord by accident (shes only 5) and it ripped out causing the little prongs to fall out an now the battery is completley dead also it doesnt show the little red battery with the USB and lightning symbol anymore. I think its completley dead.
