No. I linked to it before it was merged to the thread that I was referring to, and after merging, the mods neglected to delete my post.
lol? Really?
The price for many of you to "sell your integrity" = A phone case....embarrassing!
I am hoping this thread is made up of students/kids, that will mature into ethical people...
I may be in the minority, but I think the plotting of your lies, all for a free case, is ridiculous.
Power to the peeps who called and were offered a free case but you other "scammers," which is what you are, do not deserve it.
You can try to justify your actions with lines like "it costs Apple nothing to make the case..." or ..."I bought 2 phones off of Apple, it's the least they can do...." Say what you want, it's wrong.
I am sure I will get flamed, I am ok with that. I guess if I need to find some unethical people that will partake in "shady behavior," I know where to go.

got my free case but still no phone
Nice. How'd you manage to get it / what date did you call?
My free leather case won't get here until October 1...... I wonder if I can just go buy one from Apple store and return the one I get once it comes? lol

Since I had to drive back down to the store and fix this issue in the above thread, I got a free midnight blue case which looks amazing with the Gold iPhone 6 +

What is Apple's policy on something like this when a rep gives you a free item?
Can I walk into a store and exchange it for the same item in a different color? (ie - exchange my blue case for a brown case)
Technically, none of us have receipts... so I'm wondering what they would say if you bring in a brand new unopened case looking to swap it out.

Free Iphone 6
I called to complain about my 6+ bending even with the free leather case, so they are sending me a free 6 for my troubles. /s
I love my 6+ BTW and no it's not bent.

I bought an iphone 6 from t-mobile store, "problem" was that T-mobile store doesn't carry any iphone 6 accessories now (they barely even have the phones) so I will tell apple rep. my phone was being scratched and unprotected. what should I do =))

Has anyone been able to get a free case recently? I tried yesterday several times with no luck. Feel free to reply or pm me with your tactic!
No luck. Here is my history.
1. Called to add AppleCare+ on the iPhone 6. Told the rep I called earlier before receiving the phone to add AppleCare, but the rep said to call back when I have the phone and that I can ask for a free case for the inconvenience I had when spending 2 hours trying to order online and not get offered AppleCare at checkout. Transferred to 2 different people, last guy said can't help you, no free cases.
2. Today updated my iPhone to 8.0.1, phone was out, this was actually a serious inconvenience for me as I use my phone for work and I couldn't receive calls and I was running errands during this time. I get back to my computer, chat up support, tell them all the inconvenience I been having since I got the iPhone 6. They tell me backup and restore. No case offered.
3. Followed up with chat support because my iTunes restore wasn't working, told them all the inconvenience this is causing me, they told me how to restore through the phone, and got my phone back up. No case offered.
Dunno how you guys are doing it. I am thinking of going on live chat and just asking for it.
Has anyone actually received their free case yet? Mine's shipped but won't get here until next week.
I'm wondering if there's a barcode on it. Like is it retail packaging? Reason I ask is because I'd like to go into the store and swap it out for a different color... lol is that petty?
