I get bad information from Apple customer care and i lost my warranty !!!!

hi i called the customer care to repair my iphone 5c and the advisor told me there are no Apple store in Belgium you have to go to paris, i have to pay 300euros to travel to paris !!! i bought a battery on eBay and i replaced the mine but the problem was not the battery but the logic board.
i called i second time Apple customer care and the advisor told me you can take your iphone to Easy-m (repair center agreed by Apple inc.). i left my iphone to this shop and now he will not repair it for me because i opened this one.

if this iphone is not repaired i will do a complaint !!!
thanks for understanding

Apple will not touch any iPhone that has been opened by anybody other than certified technicians, especially when they install an unknown battery from an unknown source.  You have sacrificed any support and warranty from Apple:
"This warranty does not apply: (a) to consumable parts, such as batteries or protective coatings that are designed to diminish over time, unless failure has occurred due to a defect in materials or workmanship; (b) to cosmetic damage, including but not limited to scratches, dents and broken plastic on ports; (c) to damage caused by use with another product; (d) to damage caused by accident, abuse, misuse, liquid contact, fire, earthquake or other external cause; (e) to damage caused by operating the Apple Product outside the user manual, the technical specifications or other Apple Product published guidelines; (f) to damage caused by service (including upgrades and expansions) performed by anyone who is not a representative of Apple or an Apple Authorized Service Provider ("AASP"); (g) to an Apple Product that has been modified to alter functionality or capability without the written permission of Apple; (h) to defects caused by normal wear and tear or otherwise due to the normal aging of the Apple Product; or if any serial number has been removed or defaced from the Apple Product, or (j) if the product is stolen or Apple reasonably believes that the product is stolen based on information provided by law enforcement authorities."

    My iphone plus is bending, what does Apple offer regarding this issue?
    I am trying to get to contact with Apple Customer Care, but not clear to me how to do it beside this channel of communication. I bought the phone from kosovar carrier which is under Slovenian ownership. This means that the original warranty comes from Slovenia, bit complicated but still I would like to get an urgent answer how to proceed with this issue, thanks

    Maybe i should have only asked if anyone is aware on apple's policy
    regarding bending. I took the point that this seems not a proper forum to
    pose Q's to apple thanks to both

    Warranties on most any product cover manufacturer defects, NOT damage that you do to the product.
    If you scratch your tv does the warranty cover it?
    Your computer?
    Your car?
    Anything?

  • Sent a mail to apple Customer care- No Reply

    Dear All,
    Below mentioned (in Blue Font) is the mail I sent to Apple through its website on 15th of December 2011. Till now I have not even recieved the acknoledgement of my complaint.
    iPhone 4S is currently the best and the most expensive phone commercially available in India (With the exception of iPhone 4S  32 & 64 GB Models), and backed with a company like Apple, I expected better services.
    Please let me know "How can I put forward my complaint to the right department", as I am unable to find the right E-mail id or link for this type of customer complaint.
    "Dear Apple Team,
    I ordered an iPhone 4S - Unlocked (GSM) - 16GB White on 25th November 2011 through Order Number: W264847590.
    This phone was a gift for my sister's birthday (15th December). I ordered the phone from USA because the White iPhone (unlocked) was not available at the apple store in my city - (Jaipur - INDIA), so I requested my friend Mr. A. Dhanuka in USA to send the phone to India, with anyone coming along.
    Mr Dhanuka called the Apple Customer care to request a speedy delivery and the status of my order on the apple's website was Shipping on 7th December via 2 to 3 days guaranteed shipping.
    It is with great disappointment i am informing you that neither the phone was delivered within 2 to 3 days of shipping, nor did I get the product I ordered for my sister. In stead of a White iPhone, we received a Black one, which totally messed up the whole White theme of her birthday.
    I am a loyal apple customer since 2006 and own 2 iPhones (first generation), one Mac book Pro, Ipad 2 etc. But this was a first apple experience for my sister who owns a Samsung Smart phone, and now mocks my love for apple products.
    I dont know how much this mail will affect you guys, but this incident had affected my loyalty towards Apple.
    I hope u guys have a way to make things better.
    Thanks and Regards
    Mohit Tambi"

  • Apple customer care illegal took more money off of my credit card??????????

    After hours and days on the phone to my service provider Orange UK (my iphone4 is three months old) they accepted there was a fault with the phone and put me directly through to Apple I was quite bewildered what was going on.
    Orange told me Apple will now send you a new phone!
    Now talking to Apple.
    They told me I would have to travel to my local shop 45 miles away or have the phone picked up for repair and would not supply a replacement phone. The phone would be away for possibly 10 days or more for repair when I explained this was was not good enough as I need a phone for work.
    They turned round and said that they could offer me a service, the phone would be picked up and replaced with a recon iPhone4 within the next three working days (no defined time or day could be given just in those 3 days) and a deposit of £480 payable immediately over the phone, this would be reimbursed several days later when they were happy that my phone was not smashed or water damage when they received it.
    I didn't have any choice, I have to go for this option.
    I did a card transaction over the phone and was told that it would be for £280 they actually took £499 as I checked with the bank a few hours later this is classed as illegal transaction fraud, theft or any illegal act.
    I'm writing this four hours after making this payment to Apple
    This is how Orange really deals with iPhones?
    Is this really how Apple customer care operates?
    Can anyone help me with this palaver?
    Mark

    Hi Thanks I've spoken to the bigwigs! Good customer liaison the chap I spoke to in the end after getting patched back from the States.
    Apparently I was told the wrong cost as everyone sayed and because my credit card is actually a debit card the money is removed from my account and yes it will be reimbursed fully once they're satisfied with my return phone.
    Strangely enough UPS just turned up as I was writing this with the exchange phone.
    Apparently the Apple chap told me yesterday this will be the replacement phone I keep, my old one will be refurbished and put back into the system.
    Thank you for the great replies it was really reassuring and helped calm the situation.
    Have a great day Mark

  • How cooperative is Apple Customer Care?

    I received my week 37 Macy Gray iPod Touch in the mail from apple.com on the 20th and I've been looking at it trying to figure out exactly what makes it seem off. I thought for a while I was just seeing things out of anxiety from dropping $400 for a piece of non-quality controlled gadgetry as I'm not having severe negative black issues. Instead, I have disgustingly acute vieweing angle.
    It turns out that if I get the iPod positioned where I can see the screen the best and close one eye, I see the perfect beautiful black I expect from an Apple product. When I close the other I get a purple ugly mess. I personally don't think this thing is meant to be looked at with one eye only, so I want to return it to Apple for an exchange as I absolutely love the feature set and UI. Has anyone had any experience in exchanging online orders? What should I expect when I ring up Apple Customer Care this week?

  • HT4437 I want to develop a software with AirPaly service for business things. How can I get the permission from Apple?

    I want to develop a software with AirPaly service for business things. How can I get the permission from Apple?
    This one is used in Windows laptop, and I want it support AirPlay service, but Apple doesn't publish the AirPlay protocol.
    Many thanks.

    Create a developer account, then access he developers forums and see if you can find the information that way 
    The other option would be to simply contact Apple directly.

  • How to get direct support from apple

    Hi, I am a new iPod user... I have just created a new account and I am having problems with language support. So I tried to get support from Apple and ended up here...
    So my first question is, is this forum being maintained exclusively by iPod users or are there any apple employees helping too? Is there otherwise some other way to get help online from apple or are we on our own, just as if we were using any piece of freeware software?
    And here is the original question that made me look for support: I live in Spain but like to use my PC in English. My Windows is configured for English, and so is the iTunes software. But since I have registered my user account under a Spanish location, I cannot avoid getting the iTunes Store in Spanish language. The result is a mixture of Spanish and English in the iTunes window. Is there a way of changing that and keeping my Spanish profile and billing details while getting all text in English?
    By the way there must be a bug in the registration process... the first time the credit card data is requested, it says "if you live outside the US click here", so I clicked there, then selected "Spain" and I got an OK screen which ended my registration process... but the account was not created, since I was getting "unexistant account" responses. So I had to create the same account again... the second time iTunes knew I was in Spain so I could proceed with the credit card data and the account was created. This means that the screen flow fails to create a proper account in the cases where you have to select a different billing country.
    OK... that is all, sorry for the long list of questions.

    is this forum being maintained exclusively by iPod users or are there any apple employees helping too?
    Though on rare occasions you will see a post from an Apple employee, the Discussions are intended for user-to-user assistance only. There is no guarantee, nor even a strong likelihood, that an Apple employee will ever respond to any post here.
    Is there otherwise some other way to get help online from apple or are we on our own, just as if we were using any piece of freeware software?
    It depends on the problem. If you're having a technical problem with iTunes or an iPod, you can call Apple tech support (there is no support via email for problems with Apple hardware or applications). The call may not be free, depending on when you purchased your iPod and whether or not you have AppleCare for it.
    If you have a problem with the iTunes Store, then go to the iTunes Store Customer Service site, select the page most appropriate for your issue, and submit the web form that you'll find at the bottom of those pages (note that the form won't be on any KnowledgeBase article page, only those from the Store itself).
    I cannot avoid getting the iTunes Store in Spanish language.
    To the best of my knowledge, the Spanish iTunes Store itself is only available with Spanish titles, etc., regardless of what language you have your system set for.
    As to your registration, did you get the account created successfully? Or is there still a problem and if so, where is it hanging up?

  • HT5312 I keep getting an email from Apple telling me that my Apple Id has been successfully reset when I did not reset them.  Started early June 2013 and in a month i have had to reset it three times. Apple support was not helpful.  Any suggestions?

    I keep getting an email from Apple telling me that my Apple Id has been successfully reset.  I did not reset it.  Since early June 2013 to now i have had to reset it 3 times.  It is not an easy one to remember either. Initally I thought it was some pfishing expedition but no purchases have been confirmed by my visa.  My kids use my Apple Id to download APs and I am informed when this happens.  Nothing strange happening on the financial site at all. Just frustrating as we have to keep updating the ID to use messenger, I cloud etc on all of the devices.  I called Apple Support and the girl initally said she knew nothing about this but then spoke to someone else and they are aware of this ongoing problem and are working on it.  Any suggestions? Are others having the same problems?

    If the system didn't ship with Mountain Lion originally and you didn't purchase Mountain Lion yourself, then you will need to purchase. A purchase by the system's original owner cannot be transferred to you.
    Unless you have another system on which you have purchased Mountain Lion, you will need to first install Mac OS X 10.6.8 on the iMac, for which you'll need either the original installation disks, if the iMac came with 10.6, or a retail copy of 10.6. Install 10.6 and upgrade to at least 10.6.6, and then you can buy Mountain Lion from the Mac App Store, presuming of course that the imac can support Mountain Lion. See:
