- laserob, on 10/10/2007, -4/+106Fast and simple. That's why I like Apple. None of this 6-8 weeks bs.
- rodo75005, on 10/10/2007, -17/+108Honestly. What other company could have done this ?
Dear Apple, you rock. - trghpy, on 10/10/2007, -14/+83Some dignity
- Squeeky, on 10/10/2007, -5/+57Nobody put a gun to my head and told me to purchase a $600 phone. I knew the price would be lowered, even if it was 2 months after release. I've been completely satisfied with my purchase, and now this? Apple not only manufactures high quality products, they have some high quality customer care to go with it. While certainly not expected, this offer from Apple is highly appreciated.
- grouchyman, on 10/10/2007, -4/+32Wait till Leopard in October (hopefully)... will only cost you $29 for a full upgrade.
- mainframe, on 10/10/2007, -8/+36Worked for me :D 100 bucks back in my pocket... ok... so I have $100 to spend at the Apple store... anyone have any good suggestions as to what to buy?
- mikev, on 10/10/2007, -2/+28I entered mine as XXXXXXXXXX (no periods, dashes, or spaces) and got the SMS...
Weird - inactive, on 10/10/2007, -8/+31really simple, took me all of 30 seconds to redeem. hello bose headphones.
- TheCount, on 10/10/2007, -2/+20Apple is one of the few stores that can offer people a store credit refund, and receive absolutely no complaints. Plus I bet people end up spending more than that 100 on an Apple product, I can see a lot of people (including myself) putting it towards a more expensive product.
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -1/+19(also, hello headphone jack adapter)
- natedouglas, on 10/10/2007, -1/+16I mean the format, not a bunch of X's. I entered my phone number as XXXXXXXXXX, and it didn't work (and didn't give me an error message). But when I put hyphens in, it worked fine.
Sorry, I should've been clearer. - Gryffydd, on 10/10/2007, -2/+16If you don't already have one of the new iMacs, I'd get the new keyboard. I got one to use with my MBP and I love it.
- crawf061, on 10/10/2007, -1/+12GREAT COMMENT!!! WILL READ AGAIN!!! A+++++++++++++++
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -5/+15iDignity.
- gregdigg, on 10/10/2007, -1/+11Excited much?
- mentor972, on 10/10/2007, -2/+11The bluetooth headset to go with it. :-)
- elsenormalo, on 10/10/2007, -0/+9Wow, some people will complain about anything.
- KirinDave, on 10/10/2007, -1/+9Just got my rebate. I have to admit, the process was very slick. You enter in your details (which are trivial and all on your iphone's information screen), get a SMS verification code (presumably to prove your continued possession of the phone), then bam, print to PDF.
So many other companies would do something asinine like ask for a proof of purchase to be mailed in or some other tedious BS. - epyon180, on 10/10/2007, -1/+8Because this $100 is really a long way towards that MacBook Pro I want.
- TheCount, on 10/10/2007, -0/+7Yeah, you know what, you're right! Screw the money Apple gave me when they didn't really have to! They can take that 100, that I would rather spend on something else than not receive at all, and shove it up their asses!
- bromac, on 10/10/2007, -0/+7Nice spin. Do you guys get dizzy flip flopping like that?
- dajuggernaut, on 10/10/2007, -2/+9This isn't a god damn software update you tool
- jkoke, on 10/10/2007, -1/+8Yeah, they put a gun to my head and forced me to pay $600 for a phone because I have no free will and can't make informed decisions.
- kalisphoenix, on 10/10/2007, -4/+11I'd avoid saying "hey, I need new running shoes... maybe those Nike ID+'s... and a Nike+iPod kit... and a new nano... for my wife too..." because I just spent over $600 I wouldn't have spent otherwise :-/ It'd be a lot easier if the iPhones supported the Nike+iPod thingamajigger.
- airiox, on 10/10/2007, -4/+10mainframes comments are the perfect example of why Apple is a bunch of geniuses. They give them $100 store credit to encourage more spending from their apple loyalists. They also keep their fans happy by giving back $100 they rightly deserve.
- itspuddingtime, on 10/10/2007, -2/+8you bought TWO cell phones?! TERRORIST
- bromac, on 10/10/2007, -0/+6Sennheisers rock. They offer lifetime warranty on their headphones. They will go strong for longer than six years. My vendor for them, London Drugs, even handles the repair return and dealing with Sennheiser. So pretty much you drop them off, don't pay a dime, and wait for your good-as-knew phones to come back.
And if you're like me and your cord gets a lot of abuse, they're replace it for you.
Not saying anything about Bose, but Sennheiser rocks. - spazzcat, on 10/10/2007, -1/+7Wait until you get home?
- m-memphis, on 10/10/2007, -1/+7Just printed mine out. I'll be hitting the Apple Store tonight for a Jawbone Bluetooth headset. :)
- GreyFox422, on 10/10/2007, -0/+6Apples is the only company that I have seen to do something like this. Be happy you are getting anything back.
- ThinkBox, on 10/10/2007, -0/+5I just got the N, and wow it is amazing, i pick up the wireless on my iPhone a block away outside. Speeds are awesome onm the new MBP!
- Skunkhair, on 10/10/2007, -3/+8I've been eyeing the only other iphone headphones available from the apple store. conveniently priced at 100 bucks.
- drjones78, on 10/10/2007, -2/+7Yea, it does. 1080i or 1080p.. Of course, theres no itunes content in HD, but whatever.
- shootsfired, on 10/10/2007, -0/+5read the fine print buddy!
Customers may not redeem their store credits: to purchase Apple Gift Cards, or,iTunes Store Gift Certificates, to give iTunes Store content as gifts, or to create iTunes Store allowances; or create iTunes Store allowances - bill0001, on 10/10/2007, -2/+7Unless their server crashes I don't want to see any articles about "iPhone Credit Doesn't Work"
Read the screen, follow the instructions, do what they say; you'll get your credit. - jcdickerson, on 10/10/2007, -1/+6Fantastic UI, well designed process, and I used the credit to get AppleCare for the Iphone and $20+ off iWork - Only thing I'd change was show on the confirmation screen where you use the code on the online store (you have to go to the credit card/payment page). on the final confirmation screen.
- runnin17, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4All you douchebags that are complaining need to just shove it. What other company would even offer a refund for early adopters. I don't see Microsoft offering any type of refund to the early adopters of the 360 now that they have come out with two new versions that include HDMI. The only thing MS is doing is extending the warranty to save themselves from lawsuits.
At least Apple is giving you some store credit. Granted it would have been better if they offered a real refund, but I bet if you complain enough they will give you a refund anyway. - mccarron, on 10/10/2007, -2/+6The wireless one is out now too, can't wait to pick one up. I may save my discount for Leopard though and then get both. Leopard with a student discount will be under 100.
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4It says my iPhone has been returned.
wtf is that. - bromac, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4Fix this comment system, Kevin. It only took Apple 6-8 weeks to move, what's taking you so long?
- simplenation, on 10/10/2007, -2/+6i think this is genius of apple. now that everyone has $100 store credit there will be a huge soar in sales of their computers especially with the release of Leopard next month.
- goodfellaNW, on 10/10/2007, -1/+5What other company gives you cash after the return policy has expired? Besides, I am more astonished at the simplicity of the process rather than the $100 itself. Go find yourself a hole.
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4Probably has to do with the accountants. Apple doesn't want to have the liability for any unclaimed rebates hanging around 15 years from now.
- fowleryo, on 10/10/2007, -4/+8i was with you til you said "deserve"
- StrikerObi, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4Don't waste your money on that thing. Get the Jawbone bluetooth headset instead. It's far better than most bt headsets on the market and costs $10 less than Apple's, and it looks good.
- superkendall, on 10/10/2007, -2/+6Please name a company that has given cash for a few months old product they lowered prices on.
- superkendall, on 10/10/2007, -1/+5Apple didn't have to give anyone rebates, It's $100 I didn't have before. That's why I'm happy. The real question is why are you so grumpy?
- colecut, on 10/10/2007, -1/+5what does apple markup or profit have to do with me getting my money's worth?
and uhm.. what do you think the profit margin is on mp3s through iTunes? I think thats the only way NOT to get your money's worth.... - timdorr, on 10/10/2007, -1/+5Yeah, same here as I'm updating everyone at the office to 802.11n now that we've got a 100Mbit connection. 802.11g isn't fast enough ^_^
- rossnyc, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3100$ towards the airport extreme....Fk belkinsN, POS
