Noticed recently that my MBP's battery life is all over the place, battery icon is saying 'Service Battery'.
Looking in System Information, it shows the full charge capacity as 6444 mAh, cycle count of 745.
Coconut shows Maximum charge of 6463 mAh (this keeps shifting, it just changed to 6487), Design of 8460 mAh and so is at about 76% of design capacity.
Apple's website says
Given the batter capacity is below 80% and the cycle count is a while off 1000 - to me, this suggests it's faulty (backed up by OS X telling me to 'Service Battery'!).
Looking https://www.apple.com/uk/legal/statutory-warranty/ it says they recognise warranty in the UK as 6 years after purchase.
Anyone had any luck pursuing this route, seems quite clean cut to me - the battery isn't doing what Apple say it is designed to, therefore is faulty, therefore a claim is valid.
