Hmm? Buy through Apple store is always within 60days of phone activation. Never heard of can buy after.

Qcd & alabs need to go down physically to buy.

$38.01. it was offered to me, so i just took that option

Wah.. That's quite a steal. May I ask what was the problem with your previous phone?

Really ish first time hear express replacement without AC+ somemore only $38 payable. On Apple's site even express replacement with AC+ is S$148 😯

when apple did the diagnostics, they said there was an issue with the faceID, although faceID works perfectly for me. They offered me 2 options to get the phone replaced, either express replacement at 38.01 or go down to a nearby authorized repair center to get it fixed. Of course not wanting to risk losing a replacement by going down to the repair center, i willingly paid the 38.01

Anyone bought from AC+ from lazada? My status showed active but the phone doesn't show the coverage. My AC+ was bought together with the phone from lazada.

Curious why was your phone subjected to diagnosis?

So you’re saying you’re still under warranty and had to do a replacement, yes Express Replacement service is always available but just payable if it’s not covered under AppleCare+, just that in your case it’s likely a warranty covered item so you only have to pay for that service. If it’s out of warranty, you’ll have to pay the $38.01 + repair fee

CHat with Lazada Apple to find out.

Last time I bought from Shopee I chat with them to activate and it took quite a while to show on my phone.
And do request for a copy of invoice and AC+ service agreement in case you gonna do transferring or refunding next time.

I wanted to see if they can do a replacement of the battery, so they did the diagnosis...

Oh...actually there's an article regarding AC+ can be bought after 60 days, maybe at selected country?

After 60 days has passed (and before 365 days), AppleCare+ can be purchased by taking a device to an Apple retail location with a Genius Bar appointment for an inspection, which is required to get coverage after the 60 day mark. If a device has any accidental damage during the inspection, it needs to be repaired before AppleCare+ can be purchased.

i was at apple store just now buying other things. the staff told me for iPhone if you bring to Apple Store within 1 year warranty, you can buy AC+ anytime (even after 60 days)

but they will inspect your physical condition and run diagnostics.

But i saw someone posted now AC+ starts from your iphone activation date, rather than AC+ purchase date liao. Not sure true or not.

If buy within on 1 year mark. Dk isit only have 1 year AC+ since starts from activation date. 😲
