Whenever a user buys an Apple device, the question arises as to whether or not it is really worth purchasing Apple insurance, which is known as AppleCare+. Many users do not know what it consists of and what are the advantages of hiring this service, that is why in this post we are going to tell you about them.
Reasons to contract
Apple computers are not particularly cheap and the fear that the vast majority of users have is that they may suffer some damage and have to pay a large amount of money to repair them or even choose not to do so given the cost involved in being able to leave it again, as if it was fresh out of the box. One way to avoid this situation is to contract AppleCare+, which is Apple’s well-known insurance for its devices. Next we tell you the advantages that you will have when hiring it.
- The main advantage is that you will have much cheaper repairs than not free, or at least not all of them. By contracting this service, users have two incidences of accidental damage every 12 months, each of them subject to a service charge of 29 euros for damage to the screen or rear glass and 99 euros for other types of damage, speaking of the iPhone, but that is extensible to the rest of the equipment.
- Priority access to technical support is fully guaranteed, you will not have to wait anything to be attended when you need help from Apple professionals.
- Related to help, AppleCare+ not only provides it in situations where you have a hardware problem, but you can also use this service if you have a problem with your computer’s operating system or even with an application.
- The speed in the repairs is also to be taken into account, and that is that you will usually have the repair ready on the same day whenever this is possible. In other words, within the technical service, those users who have contracted AppleCare+ will always have priority.
- In the event that the repair of your equipment takes longer and you cannot return with it, with AppleCare+ you will have the possibility that the Cupertino company itself gives you a replacement equipment.
