Will Apple Replace?

Crazy ex girlfriend?

Wouldn't hurt to go down to your local Apple store and find out.

 

I wanna know the story.

 

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

 

AppleCare + - Yes

No AppleCare + - No

 

If you paid for applecare, then why wouldnt they? That is kind of the point of it no?

 

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?

 

If you have apple care plus then your covered.

If you haven't and try to go down the out of warranty replacement route you may run into issues as the device has to be 'serviceable'

 

Might even be a slight bit beyond crazy, maybe even a little psychotic?

 

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?

 

It looks like it was run over by a car

 

I ran over my 4S with my mom's car, the screen cracked a little but nothing like that

 

That poor iPhone

 

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.

 

Hmm, throwing it out of fit of rage is hardly accidental damage.

 

Apple doesn't ask questions on the two ADHs you get if you get AC+. All they care about is their $99.

 

Thank you Dr Fraud, if it's under AppleCare + it doesn't really matter.

 

I just have to laugh at this if he threw it a second time out of anger. Really a smart move.

If there's AppleCare, yeah he can get it replaced

 

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.
