AppleCare+ for iPad

AppleCare+ for iPad is an insurance product that provides expert telephone technical support1 and up to two years2 of additional hardware coverage, including up to two incidents of accidental damage, each subject to a £39 excess fee3

AppleCare+ benefits are separate from a consumer’s right to a free-of-charge repair or replacement, by the seller, of goods that do not conform with the contract of sale. Under English law, consumers have up to six years from the date of delivery to exercise their rights; however, various factors may impact your eligibility to receive these remedies.

  1. Local telephone charges may apply. Telephone numbers and hours of operation may vary and are subject to change.
  2. Your AppleCare+ Hardware Coverage starts from the date you purchase AppleCare+. This means that if you purchase AppleCare+ up to 60 days after you purchase your iPad, you will only receive AppleCare+ Hardware Coverage from that date. Your Technical Support coverage starts on expiry of your 90 days of complimentary technical support cover provided by Apple, which starts on the date you purchase your iPad. Both types of cover end 24 months from the date you purchased your iPad.
  3. Coverage is available only for the iPad and its original included accessories for protection against (i) battery depletion of 50 per cent or more from original specification, and (ii) up to two incidents of accidental damage, each incident being subject to a £39 excess fee. Replacement equipment that Apple provides as part of the repair or replacement service may be new or equivalent to new in both performance and reliability. See terms at www.apple.com/legal/sales-support/applecare/applecareplus for full details.
  4. Technical Support Coverage gives access to technical advice for which a customer would otherwise be charged a fee.
