I bought expired milk one time.

Did you keep the replacement milk or wait until they refurbished your original milk?
Took my sleep/wake broken iPhone 5 to the Apple Store (terrible experience) and got a loaner phone. I don't want to go back up there since it isn't exactly nearby.
Has anyone just kept their loaner phone & not picked up their "fixed" iPhone?
If so, did you have any issues with it?
Next time I take my Audi in for repair, I'll just try to keep the loaner they give me... because I'm too lazy to go get my original car back. Let's see how this pans out!![]()
OP, I have kept a loaner phone and nothing happened to me. I was living in Hawaii at the time and the nearest Apple store was an island away.
Actually, I know. Because I kept a loaner 5 with no problems which I sold via Craigslist.
I haven't went through the Sleep/Wake button service, but I think my only concern would be whether or not the phone is tied to a Find My iPhone account; I assume loaner phones are used, and have been a loaner phone to someone else previously.
If it is disclosed in the terms you signed prior to accepting the loaner car, and it states you may swap cars, I see no reason for legal dispute later on. I'm certain you will still be bound to fulfilling your original financial obligations with your bank or lean holder, if any apply.

OP--I would just keep the phone. It would be nice of you to call the store and tell them that's what you are doing so they don't have to store your phone forever (I'm sure your phone will become the new phone)
Wow... you come onto MACrumors, an Apple fan site, and ask if its okay to steal an iPhone?![]()
Keeping the loaner phone is pretty much the same as their express replacement service. Besides, for Apple, it's practically a 1:1 exchange that's why they allow it. Part of the reason Apple products are so expensive is because of their excellent customer service. Maintaining their brand image through advertising, customer service, warranty, etc is already factored in as a cost of doing business. If I'm paying $650-950 for the phone and another $100 for AppleCare+, I'm not going to go out of my way to inconvenience myself due to some moral high ground.Just because something is legal doesn't make it right.

The stupidity in this thread SHOULD amaze me, but it doesn't. OP asks a simple questions, which is the intended use for a FORUM. People accuse OP of doing something he actually isn't doing (STEALING). OP Provides WRITTEN LEGAL DOCUMENTS PROVIDED BY APPLE to prove what he is doing isn't ILLEGAL or STEALING. OP simply wants to make sure that in the future, he won't encounter any issues with keeping the loaner. OP ASKS OTHERS TO SHARE THEIR EXPERIENCE WITH THIS SAME SCENARIO. Then the STUPID CROWD continues to rant and rave about an issue that doesn't even exist.
Sometimes I am quite ashamed to be an American (and yes I am assuming the idiotic responses in this thread are from my fellow Americans) with how stupid people in this country are.
Criticize someone without knowing all the information, then when your wrongness is revealed (respectfully by the OP, actually), deflect that entirely by making up a new reason to criticize them.

^^this.
I like how the OP turned the tables on everyone with the legal agreement. Best thread I've read hear in a while!
No, I wasn't asking if I could keep the loaner. I was asking if anyone else had done it, and if they had any problems.
If you had already read the agreement why did you make this thread?
I'm fairly sure that since Apple says that it's okay in their T&C, it's okay.![]()
Looks like all of this discussion is for nothing.
The microphone on my loaner iPhone doesn't work. On phone calls, people can barely hear me. I can record voice memos without issue, but the microphone doesn't work properly on phone calls.
The phone is pretty useless as a phone, so I have made an appointment to get my loaner replaced tomorrow.
