Basically, I got bent over on this iPhone thing.
I had a 16BG iphone. Four months into it, it got accidental damage. Super shit luck accidental damage. Now if I'd like to replace the phone that I paid $300 for...it'll cost $500. Of course there is the option of down grading to an 8GB for $400 and a renewal of my AT&T contract.
What the fuck.
- how is this apples fault?slappy
- this was not apparent at buy intymeframe
- Well you got the phone cheaper because you went on a contract.slappy
- yes! now i'm stuck in that contract for another year and a half with no iPhonetymeframe
- again, it sucks but its not steves fault.slappy
- apple product, apple contract with att = apple faultBattleAxe
- Getting a cheaper phone on a contract is normal practice. This is why people sign contracts. Its the carrot.slappy

Can't you get insurance with the iPhone?

This isn't helping.
Hopefully, I've raised some awareness that getting an iphone is vulnerable to way more charges than expected.
oh and magnificent_rum i think is curiousoranj

I've been saying this all along; in some regards Apple and Google and shadier than MS.

More power to apple who gets people to pay super high prices. Im sure they're not losing sleep. And if you don't buy the products i'm sure you won't lose any sleep.

Maybe things are done differently in Americaland, but couldn't you have just got phone insurance?
Warranty doesn't cover accidental dammage, and nor should it. It's hardly Apple's fault you broke it, and didn't have any provisions should that arise.
On my phone contract here in Aus. I pay an extra few bucks a month, and I'm covered if anyone steals my phone, or I sit on it, or if I jump into a pull with it in my pocket (minus a small excess). Perhaps you should stop blaming companies for your own clumsiness.

At least Apple's hardware, software and applications work.
