What company will replace a battery-destroyed iPhone 3?

The battery of my iPhone 3 is freakishly swollen/expanded. Half of the front face is popped out and the back. I read that certain company's will replace it for free when this happens, any suggestions?

It's out of warranty, but if that is indeed a genuine Apple battery, you can always try your luck in an Apple store.

  • Will the Apple shop replace my iPhone or my phone network company? My iPhone has started to break (not through accidental damage, but a software issue) and I was wondering if it's better to go to an Apple shop or to an EE shop where I bought it. Will any of them give me a free upgrade? Which is more likely?
  • Will Crapple warranty cover an iPhone destroyed in microwave oven? I put my iPhone in the microwave oven last night, and it totally blacked out after 4 seconds. I opened the door, took the iPhone out, and could not get it to turn back on. This morning, same thing. It won't turn on, it won't charge, and the computer won't recognize it. Will Crapple warranty cover this? Will they know it was damaged by the microwave oven?
