Will apple replace my slightly bent iphone 6?

I bought my iphone 6 about 1 month ago, and recently i notice it is a little bent.
Its not a big issue and the phone still works it just looks really weird and im worried it might get worse.
I didn't put the phone in my back pocket at all or try to bend it in any way so im pretty sure its not my fault.
If i take this to apple will they replace/fix my phone for free?

Mine has a slight bend as well and I have honestly absolutely no idea how it happened.  Never ever had any sort of damage to a phone, iPod, iPad in the past as I OCD in looking after my stuff.   Was disappointed at the response I got from Apple Genius and subsequently the Apple store manager.  They said that Apple policy is NOT to replace ANY iPhone 6 or 6 Plus with any sort of bend in it,.  I was told to write to Apple in Ireland if I was still not happy.  That was a complete waste of time as they eventually replied saying that my issue was a Technical Support one and that they did not provide technical support through written correspondence.  My Letter clearly stated that I had been through the technical support route and that they had told me to contact Apple directly.  All in all very disappointed. 
As far as I am concerned the iPhone six plus has some sort of flaw that means in certain conditions it is susceptible to bending.  They said it would have taken considerable force to bend an iPhone and my reply is if that is the case then surely I would be well aware of it happening.
I love Apple products though my recent iPhones and iMacs have not been as reliable as my previous products.  I take great care of them and having spent many thousands of pound every year on Apple products I am very disappointed with the lack of support on this issue.  
I anybody does know anyone who has had a bent iPhone 6 replaced then I would be very interested to know about it.   Apple did say one of the places I was to seek help was on this forum.
Must say that, apart from the bend, I have had no other issues with my iPhone, and loving the camera especially.
Many thanks   Iain

  • Will apple replace my cracked screen iphone 4

    my phone screen is cracked, will apple replace it for free?

    Your warranty is cancelled by damaging your iPhone unless you pay Apple for a replacement, and then you get only 90 days, I believe. So going third-party probably doesn't hurt you that much.
    As to getting something for free or a reduced price just because you bought a lot of products, that's totally unrealistic. No one does that, not when the problem wasn't the company's fault. I've purchased mutilple Hyundai cars, but I wouldn't expect them to discount a windshield replacement if I drove the car into a building. If this iPod failed on it's own multiple times, then I'd agree that you were owed something. But expecting free or discounted stuff because of your own mistake is totally different and unjustified.
    'nuff said on the subject. Again, feel free to purchase from any other company you feel would treat you better.

  • Will Apple replace my water damaged iPhone for a refurbished one?

    I have an iPhone 4s that fell into a swimming pool recently. The phone hasn't been turning on since then.
    I live in India, but the phone is a gift from my friend who lives in Hong Kong. Will Apple be able to exchange my phone for a refurbished one if I send it to Hong Kong?
    I have read on forums that Apple will replace the phone for 199$, but I want to be sure about this before sending it to my friend in Hong Kong. Any help will be appreciated!

    From this very website (drill down from the "Support" tab at the top of this screen):
    Out-of-Warranty Service     If you own an iPhone that is ineligible for warranty service but is eligible for Out-of-Warranty (OOW) Service, Apple will service your iPhone for the Out-of-Warranty Service fee listed below.    
    iPhone model
    Out-of-Warranty Service
    iPhone 5s, iPhone 5c,
                     iPhone 5
    $269
    iPhone 4S
    $199
    iPhone 4, iPhone 3GS,
                     iPhone 3G, Original iPhone
    $149
    A $6.95 shipping fee will be added if service is arranged through Apple and requires shipping. All fees are in U.S. dollars and are subject to local tax.
    When setting up out-of-warranty service, Apple will request credit card pre-authorization for the maximum service fee listed above.  This amount will be deducted from your credit limit. The final service fee we charge will be determined during testing and may be less than the service fee listed above.
    Certain damage is ineligible for out-of-warranty service, including catastrophic damage, such as the device separating into multiple pieces, and inoperability caused by unauthorized modifications.  However, an iPhone that has failed due to contact with liquid may be eligible for out-of-warranty service.
    Apple reserves the right to determine whether or not your iPhone is eligible for Out-of-Warranty service. iPhones that are repaired or replaced have a 90-day limited hardware warranty or assume the remainder of your standard warranty or AppleCare service contract coverage, whichever is longer. Please see Apple's Repair Terms And Conditions for further details.
    You can select the appropriate country for local prices.

  • Will apple replace my iphones broken screen, will apple replace my iphones broken screen

    Will apple replace or repair my iphones broken screen

    Apple will offer an "out of warranty" replacement phone for about 50% of the cost of the phone, unless you purchased AppleCare+ whenyou purchased your phone, which would entitle you to a replacement for $49 (if your phone is still covered under that warranty).  Otherwise, Apple does not replace broken screens.

  • Will Apple replace a bent iPhone 6?

    Will Apple replace a bent iPhone 6?

    They ought to.  I'm going to find out when I visit the store this week.
    The bend on my iPhone 6 is directly under the volume buttons. I noticed it today. I didn't believe this was a common problem. I thought it would only happen if abused. But my iPhone 6 is now bent. I have a case on it. I kept it in my purse, in it's own pocket, or on my desk at home.  Now I've got to take it to the Apple store and hope for a nice "Genius." The idea of having to pay for the damage, after taking good care of it and only owning it for 2 weeks, is really frustrating. 
    I hope everyone with this problem makes it known somewhere online because Apple ought to be responsible for the design flaw. Maybe they could reinforce that area in future production.

  • Will Apple replace a iPhone I found? (iPhone 5)

    I found a iPhone 5 on the side of the road, cracked screen, chipped corners and bent a bit, BUT the phone works great, and I can't restore it because I keep getting error 4013, ok now will Apple replace that iPhone even though I haven't bought it?

    hey grubbin. not true not true, long story short my friend bought a iphone off a friend that his ex girlfiriend forgot behind and her plan ran up, ( HOWEVER THIS IS PREPAID I THINK) and nothing was owed on it, but the new buyer got on verizon and the phone was not registered , there was a plan but the phone its self wasnt registered so my friend was able to get online register the phone with verizon and reset it to all his info and apple id and he uses the phone to this day. So it is possible , HOWEVER again if whoever lost it is going to report it stolen you dont want a receiving stolen property charge. Choice is yours.
    But that brings up another question? If someone loses their iphone and reports it lost and gets a new phone then would you be able to activate it and use it or should it be returned to apple, but who would pay out their own pocket to return a phone that isnt theirs

  • My iPhone 5 dies at 20-24% it doesn't go all the way to 0%. Will apple replace my phone or fix my phone for free since its hardware problem and I have no money. This is my second iphone 5 replacement.

    My iPhone 5 dies at 20-24% it doesn't go all the way to 0%. Will apple replace my phone or fix my phone for free since its hardware problem and I have no money. This is my second iphone 5 replacement. I have no apple care so I'm worried. My phone has NEVER touched water! I only get 1/5 of battery use. I've also spent 30$ at the apple store on screen protectors for nothing! I really don't have 220$ nor 50$ I am on a strict budget. I believe I have to pay 220 not 50 ford a phone replacement for accidental damage. I don't know what category this falls under. I really need a new phone or battery. HELP! Will I have to pay? Also my screen lighting is all topsy-tervy every I put my screen on highest it won't work I have to wait about a minute? Forgot to mention that my apps exit out by themselves all the time when Im using them.

    So, have you tried a reset?  Restore from backup? Restore as new?  You seem to have a few problems but do not mention any action taken to resolve them.  What have screen protectors to do with anything?

  • Iphone 4s front glass screen smashed. Will apple replace for free if I have Apple Care?

    Iphone 4s front glass screen smashed. Will apple replace for free if I have Apple Care? Can I do it in any Apple Store? I bought it in EEUU

    Sorry no
    the iPhone can not be serviced anywhere other than the US
    The warranty is NOT international it is only valid in the country of purchase
    AppleCare + as explained is also NOT international it is only
    valid in the US
    This is why all responders recommend against buying in USA
    you are resident in another country
    Just for reference an iPhone purchased within the European Union
    can be serviced under warranty in any member EU state
    However that does not help you

  • My iPhone 4 got stolen and it has apple protection care, will apple replace it?

    My iPhone 4 got stolen and it has apple protection care, will apple replace it?

    If you mean the Extended Warranty, then, no, Apple does not replace stolen or lost iPhones. If you have theft protection through other insurance, then report it to your agent. Be sure to report the theft to the police.
    I would not hold your breath waiting for it to be recovered, however. Very few items like iPhones that have been stolen are ever recovered.
