Service for iPhone
iPhone hardware issues that are covered by an Apple warranty are serviced for you free of charge. Please note that not all issues (such as issues with software, configuration or user damage) are covered under Apple’s warranty, and in such cases, you may be charged a fee. For information on what is covered by Apple’s warranty, please see their warranty information by clicking here.
In some cases we are able to facilitate an in-store repair, for others the device may need to be sent to the Apple Repair Centre, located in Sydney. This process can take 5-7 business days. Depending on the warranty coverage and the issue with your iPhone, a loan phone may be available in the meantime. For more information on the loan phone program or for availability, please contact us.
Find My iPhone
Before submitting your iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch for service, Find My iPhone and iCloud must be removed from the device before any service can be performed.
Find My iPhone is a security feature which allows you to track your device if it is lost or stolen. When Find My iPhone activated, someone needs your Apple ID and password to erase, reactivate or use your device.
If Find My iPhone is disabled, your device can no longer be located, placed in Lost Mode, or remotely erased using icloud.com/find or the Find My iPhone iOS app.
Apple provides instructions on how to remove your device from Find My iPhone.
Backing Up
It is strongly recommended that you maintain regular backups of your iPhone to iCloud or to a computer running iTunes.
Before submitting your device in for service, please ensure your backups are complete and up to date.
In the event that you are unable to backup your iPhone, we do offer a backup and restore service for $55, assuming that your data is accessible at drop off.
Apple provides instructions on how to back up your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch.
