That’s a question I have as well. I have Apple Music free through Verizon and I’m paying $9.99 a month for 2TB of iCloud storage.
If you’re getting free Apple Music via your provider or else where the. You’re probably going to be better off keeping that unless you were thinking ok adding fitness, news etc.
I pay for family music @ £15 and 2TB @ £7. Given my free year of apple tv will be up soon I can add that and news, fitness and arcade for £8 more.. think I’m in!

AppleCare+ has been improved for Watch and iPhone (and I assume other products) when taking out a new policy.
You now get 2x accidental damage instances per 12 months of the 24 month plan. No option to rollover unused accidental damage into year 2, unfortunately.

I really would like to use the Fitness + service (looks really good I think!) but I am not prepared to pay the £30 odd a month they are asking for as I already get Apple Music(currently free from EE) and iCloud (£2.50 a month for the family), so doesn't seem worth it to me.
I wonder why they'd do that? I mean it's great for the consumer but it's got to be bad for Apple.
I’d be surprised if there are many that ever claim under Apple care, I’d say it would be a small fraction of customer who have it. Easy for Apple to look like they’re giving more without incurring much more cost.

...really? Where did you see that? Thought it was only part of the bundle...?!
EDIT - You're right..!!
Apple Fitness+
From HIIT to Meditation, beginner to advanced, 5 to 45 minutes — there’s something for everyone on Apple Fitness+. Try it free for up to 3 months.

How do you get Apple Music free? is it that free trial thing?
So when do we think the iPhone event be? I do not think it will be before 13/10 at the earliest, they would not have had the event that they had yesterday and then have another one two weeks later.
I reckon you're right. Next event on 13th October, Pre-Orders on the 16th and available/delivery from 23rd October.
I bit the bullet and ordered the Inverness Green braided strap. Delivery in November!!!
Some carriers in Europe offer a Apple Music subscription alongside the plan. Mine already offered Apple Music, and before that Spotify, now it offers TIDAL (better than nothing)
That's almost certainly it. Apple will have the data that's supported the decision, knowing that many AppleCare customers don't claim or only claim once. I'd also dare say many don't realise they can cancel the policy and get a refund either.
For the incredibly accident prone, this is great news. For the rest of us, it's comforting that it's there and that we'll probably not need it.
I use to get the option through EE. Not showing as a benefit now but I take the BT Sport access anyway. Seem to have move tv streaming with britbox and prime video as options.
Me too. I currently have free BT sport and free music streaming.
EE don’t offer Apple Music for free as far as I can tell
Great to see the return of this thread and some familiar posters!
EE removed their sim only 5g plans and they have now gone through the roof when returned they can fook off up £9 and from 18 to 24 months

...they did offer it a while back (months ago) - I'm new to Apple Music so took up their offer (my free period actually ends next month).

Yeah, I had the free 6 months about two years ago. Been paying for Apple Music for about a year now
£37 for unlimited data is a joke 24 months sim contract next year your price increases after CPI and RPI....
Come close to £40 unlimited for a sim contract is pure madness.....

they know alot of people will be getting the new iphone and they can price gouge
it might be worth getting a regular unlimited 4g for 25 quid as 5g isn't even in most areas of the uk
If your going to get a 24 month plan on 4g and in 12 months time 5g is in your area I would feel a bit let down as I like to future proof especially if I’m purchasing the 5g iPhone shortly
