Student Discount on MBP applied, then sent MBP back, Can I use discount again?

[GeorgeCWB]

I just used my student discount on a MBP and whilst waiting for it to be delivered I decided to do a little research on the software and hardware...
Long story cut short - I came across the imminent refresh of the MBP and I now feel like a complete dunce, I have sent it back and they picked it up today.

I was just wondering, does this mean I can't use my student discount again this year for the refresh?

I'm from the UK.

Any help is appreciated!

p.s. Damn you Arrandale!

I don't believe there is any reason to worry. I don't believe there is a limited number of discount uses. The discount is available for each separate purchase as far as I am aware of.

I don't believe there is any reason to worry. I don't believe there is a limited number of discount uses. The discount is available for each separate purchase as far as I am aware of.

There is a limit:

2.8 The following quantity limits per academic school year apply to purchases on the Apple Online Store for Education:

- Desktop: One (1) may be purchased per academic year
- Mac mini: One (1) may be purchased per academic year
- Notebook: One (1) may be purchased per academic year
- Display: A maximum of two (2) may be purchased per academic year
- Software: A maximum of two (2) per software title may be purchased per academic year
- Apple TV: There is no limit on the quantity of Apple TV purchases per academic year
- iPod: There is no limit on the quantity of iPod purchases per academic year

The above quantity limits apply to purchases of Apple products with a dedicated education discount on the Apple Online Store for Education, Apple on Campus Online Stores, Apple Authorised Resellers or Apple Retail stores. Total product quantities remain the same regardless of where your purchase with a dedicated education discount is made. Apple reserves the right to cancel your order if you have reached these limits. We will inform you if we cancel your order on the above basis. Any payments you have made will be refunded to you.

But since you returned it (and got a refund?) you should be fine.

Well when I was in this situation I was told that I could not use it, but after some arguing with a manager, he just applied the discount anyway

Yes, well the refund is pending as it was picked up today...

Thanks for the help guys, very much appreciate it. I'll give Apple a ring when these beauties come out!
