Many customers purchase the warranty plans and never use them. Does unused Apple Care expire? This is one of the questions asked by ‘fruit’ users along with ‘how to prepare AT&T iPhone 6 for sale‘- however it is better to search for ‘how to get refund for AppleCare’ if you didn’t use it. This is possible and you should do this since the plan has expiration date.
It is surely great when you have AppleCare plan and need to repair your gadget since such a plan offers lower fees. However if you are careful and take good care of your iPhone or other device – you might want to get unused AppleCare refund. We’ll explain what you should do and when it is possible to request your money back.
How to Get Refund for AppleCare You Don’t Use
When you sign up for any plan you can learn details about it. However in stores when we are offered to pay extra for 2-year care plan or other additional options we don’t have time to get into details and often agree to pay even when we don’t really need this service.
If you accidentally purchased AppleCare plan with your iPhone, Mac or other device you can cancel it within 30 days of purchase date. The ‘fruit’ company should give you the full refund if you didn’t use any service. Or it will minus the value of the service you got. If you also experience any AT&T LTE problems with your iPhone 6s you can fix them yourself.
Users who think about cancelling their plan after 30 days from the moment of purchase can get the refund based on the percentage of the coverage that hasn’t expired. The value of additional services you used would be minused, of course.
It has sense to cancel your plan even after a year in case you got the 2-year option. You will not get all the money back but you could easily return nearly 50% of what you paid. This is a nice bonus if you truly don’t need this service.
For example, if you buy the 2015 model iPhone 6s [Apple released iPhone 6s in September] and pay $129 for your AppleCare plan (just an example) – you’ll be able to get the refund of nearly $60 in a year. Is it worth contacting Apple and learning about your options? Of course, give it a try and you’ll be surprised at the possible refund you can get if your plan hasn’t expired yet.
