How to get a replacement iPhone 5s?
I have dropped my phone and cracked the screen. I have no insurance but have a 1 year warranty with Apple Store (which does not cover cracked screens)
I have been told it is around 200 pounds to fix and will not be replaced by Apple.
Are there any other ways in which I can get a replacement?
Can I insure my phone and then say I've lost it or its stolen 2 weeks later and get a replacement?
How does it work?
Instead of defrauding an insurance company or Apple, save up and buy a replacement phone, and in the future try to avoid dropping. There are inexpensive cases you can buy for the iPhone that will protect it against just about any common drop (in some cases the case can protect even against a drop from a third-story window).
Not going to work. You can repair it or pay to replace it. No one will insure a phone unless the insurer knows that it is in good working order at the time the coverage begins.
For the sake of £200 you want to risk a criminal record?
We can repair it for you for much cheaper than all of that. Myphoneisbroken.com
There are a lot of inexpensive cases you may buy from the Market: one of them is Cellz.com
To get insurance they will verify your phone first, they aren't stupid if thats what you think. I would just make an appt at an Apple store and see what it costs for them to replace the screen.
If it is otherwise working,
you can go to Apple,
and appleCare/Apple Gurus may do an out of warrenty repair/replacement
it will be an apple repaired and warrentied product

"My iPhone is not eligible for warranty service. What are my service options?"
But it will be an official replacement from apple… Not some small shop repair
and if you try to claim on insurance
you will be investigated for such a quick claim (you think you are not the 1st to try that?)
and have an insurance claim record which will impact other insurances at your house.
- Where and how much does it cost to get a replacement iphone 4s screen? I just dropped my phone and cracked the screen. Where can i get a replacement kit? And how much do they cost?
- Replacement Pending iPhone. Replacement phone or fix? My iphone is being repaired and on the apple service page it says 'iPhone replacement pending' and below it says repair complete… I was wondering if this meant that my phone has been repaired or if Apple are sending a replacement iphone different than the original.
- Just got a replacement Iphone for my broken one: how do i get my music/photos back? My old iphone 4s broke, so i just received my "new" replacement one. After restoring it i retrieved all my old contacts and apps, but my music and photos, with the exception of a few old pictures, have yet to appear. My old iphone, being broken, won't stay powered on for more than a second or so. If my old iphone has a sim card or something, do i take it out and put it in the new one to transfer all my old content?
- IPhone 4 will not charge, can I get a replacement iPhone for free? I have a white iPhone 4 and for some reason, its not charging. My uncle has an iPhone and he put the charger in his phone and it worked. He told me the phone's messed up, not the charger. He also said to go to Apple. I have no clue why its not charging and why its messed up. Question is, can I get a replacement iPhone for free if its still under warranty? I just got the iPhone 4 about a month ago.
