iPhone OOW Repair

[rscosworth]

Guys,

Anyone know if i can get an OOW repair on my iPhone?

The WiFi has stopped working, I have tried a restore and im running the latest firmware.

Anyone know if its possible and if so, how much it costs?

Thanks

It is possible, but cost's vary depending on parts. Best making an appointment at an apple store and see what they say.

I'm pretty sure they just offer you a refurb for £99.

Sorry to thread hijack, but my wife's iPhone has a broken SIM carrier (when you push the pin in - the SIM carrier won't come out).

Is everyone eligible for the £99 refurb offer? I might take them up on this if the refurb has a new battery - hers in nearly 2 years old now and the battery is useless.

If its once piece its £139. If its a battery I think they have a lower cost, check out the website.

Wonder whether its worth it for just the WiFi with the possibility of a new iPhone looming just a couple of months away?

OP: I had an iPhone that was 14 months old - went in with wifi also not working (beyond about a 3m range) and also a crack around the headphone socket meaning my music kept pausing all the time.

Anyway, went to Apple store on Regent Street and got it swapped out for a brand new one with no hassle. So if its not majorly out of warranty, I'd def try and blag it. Just be polite and see what they say..

I have an appt at 1740 this evening so will see how it goes....there is also a small crack near the silent switch and near the dock connector, and phone is in mint condition. Fingers crossed they take pity on me...
