Has anybody in the last month had their apple repaired via the mail-in method?

This is one of the reasons I paid for applecare, surely they can't just go back on that contract!

Agreed. This would also be a major problem for me.

I'm in a wheelchair and housebound without assistance. I've always bought AppleCare for the peace of mind it gives, knowing that my kit will be collected and repaired. This would be a huge backward step for Apple UK
