Applecare+ for iPhone

[Jirachi]

As far as my current company one, current generation no discount. Previous generation yes.

I get what you mean, I think something changed. I don't see mine for the latest generation (as of 17 Pro period)

Jokes aside, AC+ is purchasable when checking out on ST but I believe not after.
So you will need to either buy it through your device with 60 days grace period or Apple Store after 60 days grace period, but that is if your device is well kept and passes the diagnostics.

Depends on what repair.

repair and ac+ are separate matters

If that’s what you see then why the question? Am confused.

also not sure what you saw and if your interpretation is correct or not.

Subject to the issue of your device, parts availability, what time you drop the device.
Simple issue like screen repair etc. generally, within an hour/same day from my recent experience. Complicated one will be advised by Apple staff.

Or the simplest way as per Apple is to pay for the express repair where Apple will send a replacement device, and you send in your damaged device but pay the new device holding fee.

hi all, do you all still wait for 60 days later to buy AC+ or you bought immediately?

I buy together with my purchase because I don’t use case, only screen protector. If anything happen during the 60 days hahahaha

Doesn't matter since the start date of coverage is from the day your Apple device is turned on AND activated.

Edit:

Okay, I stand corrected. It's date of purchase instead!
But yes, if power on but never connect to network to activate will not trigger the 60 days countdown.

oh theres changes now? The last i bought is for IP16PM, it started from the date of purchasing the AC+, though
iI got that phone sometime in Sep 2024, waited 60 days before buying AC+, and AC+ is still currently active till Nov 2026

This one diff ppl diff risk appetite. Is about your risk appetite that’s more important right?

I thought they changed it to when you purchase for sometime liao.

ehhh, IIRC I turned on but didn't activate. Then subsequently activate and then AC+ started from the day I activated leh not from when I purchased.
Wait, let me check again.

If you go at 9:30pm+ when the store closes at 10pm, then likely not same day. If you go at 10am when the store just opens, you likely get it same day.

I remembered they changed it to the day when you purchase the AppleCare+. That was the old version

it starts from the day you purchase the AC+, not date of device activation.
