Crazy ex girlfriend?
Wouldn't hurt to go down to your local Apple store and find out.
Me too!!!

Do you have apple care? If you do I think they will you you don't I think they probably will for $269
Probably actually. Either way you'll be paying though. Without AC you're looking at about 300 or so. With I'm not sure...100 or 129?
I think AppleCare Plus would pay for "accidental damage". I'd really like to know what accident this was. Accidentally putting the iPhone on your camp fire instead of the marshmallows?
I ran over my 4S with my mom's car, the screen cracked a little but nothing like that

It's my brothers phone. He was trying to take his phone out if his otter box to put a Zagg glass protector on it. Somehow he cracked the screen. He got mad that it cracked and threw it across his yard. When he did it hit his garage. This is what happened.
Wasn't ran over by a car.
And I'm not a troll.

That poor iPhone
It truly sucks. I told him he needs to seek help.

I'd say the odds are against you, but give a shot, you never know.
So do you think I'll have to pay the oow cost? I'm fine with that as long I get it replaced
You had me worried there for a moment!
You just got the new 5s, I thought maybe it had come to a quick, sudden and very bad end. Sorry that happened to your brother's phone but glad it didn't happen to yours.
As has been mentioned, if AC+ was bought Apple will replace for $99. You get two ADH allowances. After that, Apple won't cover accidental damage anymore.
Apple doesn't ask questions on the two ADHs you get if you get AC+. All they care about is their $99.

Hello Mr. Fraud did I ever claim it was accidental??

I agree I literally lmao'd when he told me.
Umm............

Yes and no. If its malicious damage, I don't see why they can't reject a claim. But yeah generally it's pay us the money and here's a replacement device.
I recognize your point and agree with you. The contract does not use the words "malicious" or "intentional". And Apple would be well within it's rights if it knew to reject this.
But as you've acknowledged, they really don't. If it's something right out in front of them that they cannot ignore that's one thing. But generally they do not ask questions.
