How to buy applecare for iphone 7 after purchase serial#
To claim the refund, you have to contact Apple by phone, fax, or snail mail, and you have to provide the device’s serial number, the plan’s agreement number, and proof of purchase of the plan as an original sales receipt. A $349 MacBook Pro plan after a year would result in $233 remaining in value, less $23.30, or about $209.
While not huge, it’s not nothing, either. Since $25 is more than 10 percent of that amount ($4.95), Apple would subtract that lesser value, for a net of about $44. So on a $99 AppleCare+ plan after 12 months exactly and no service incidents, you’d have $49.50 in value left. “Original cost pro-rated for time remaining less the value of any service used and less a cancellation fee of either $25 or 10 percent of the pro-rated remaining value, whichever is lower.” In the United States, the formula is, paraphrased: This is because countries and regions have varying rules about how warranties must be honored and rebated. (It’s always the most suspicious chickens who notice these things.) Apple says its formula varies by country. But it does shift some of the discussion around iPhone installment plans, which I just wrote about, describing swapping my phone from AT&T to the Apple iPhone Upgrade plan.īut there it is on Apple’s site! Reader “suspiciouschicken” alerted us in the comments on the iPhone-swap article. This wouldn’t change any actions I’ve taken nor my recommendations. I had no idea that the extended-warranty plans, AppleCare and AppleCare+, could be refunded on a pro-rata basis for the unused remaining portion, despite ostensibly being a veteran reporter of things Apple. It’s important to admit ignorance otherwise, you’re arrogant.
