Do you have a source for this? It would be interesting to know more about their refurbished devices, I've purchased multiple in the past and they've always been identical to new.
Got a tip for us?

So am I the only one that got their second payment from this settlement?! 100 bucks just dropped in my account(via email)
Not quite sure why I’m getting a Visa digital card for $26.18 dollars. I had 2 iPhone 5 cell phones replaced under AppleCare. I did receive $14 dollars and some cents for each of those iPhone 5’s. But now I’m getting $26.18 for what reason? Anyone have an ideas 💡???
I always buy AppleCare, but I only had 2 iPhone 5’s replaced, and I don’t think there was anything wrong with the hardware, but it was a software issue. I got paid $14 plus change, then about 6 months later I got a check for $14 plus change. Now the $26.18. Is that for 1 iPhone 5, or for 2, or is it for some other AppleCare that I never got a refurbished item? The whole thing is a little confusing. 🫤
It was during a certain time period that you must had gotten a replacement from them when you used AppleCare, and they couldn't fix your device. In my experience I usually go through 3-4 same iPhone iterations from exchanges with 9/10 hardware issues. The only device I've problems with the software has always been the apple watch.
The only record that I remember from getting phones from Apple was during the iPhone 7 fiasco where they had a defective earpiece. I went through 11 iPhone 7 plus at the time.
I am supposed to get $26.18 from this Maldonado lawsuit. Waiting for it to hit my account but hit the payment email for it.
I got 2 checks in the mail last evening. Two checks for $46.08 each. That’s along with the $26.18 digital Visa card I got.
Still not sure why I’m getting this money. Must be from the BatteryGate issue. I was thinking that I had only one iPhone 7 Plus battery replaced for $29, which I was totally satisfied with Apple’s response, but I do remember now that I had bought another iPhone 7 Plus for my now X. Maybe that’s why I got 2 checks in the mail. But that doesn’t account for the single $26.18 digital Visa card?

a few days ago I also received an email for an eligible second payment for this lawsuit
I got another check Saturday for $26.18. So now I’ve gotten:
$26.18 paper check
$26.18 digital MC card
$46.08 paper check
$46.09 paper check
—————
$144.53 total
And I was, and still am, a happy Apple user. I never felt slighted by Apple at any time.
