No problem, let’s discuss how to cancel AppleCare.

AppleCare can be cancelled through your Apple ID settings, or by sending a written notice to Apple.

I owned an iPhone 11, but cancelled AppleCare+ plan and refunded it in order to buy my new iPhone 13. I will discuss how others can do the same if they no longer need or want their AppleCare coverage.

What is AppleCare?

AppleCare is a protection plan offered by Apple that provides extended coverage and technical support for your Apple device.

It includes hardware repairs and replacements, as well as software support. AppleCare+ also offers accidental damage coverage.

It costs $129 for one year of coverage or $239 for three years of coverage. The plan includes up to two incidents of accidental damage coverage, and it also includes phone support and software updates for the duration of the plan.

Reasons For Canceling AppleCare

There are several reasons why a user might want to cancel their AppleCare subscription.

One reason could be that you no longer have an Apple device that is covered by the plan.

Another reason could be that you feel that you no longer need the protection that AppleCare offers, or that you can get equivalent protection from another source.

Finally, you may simply feel that the cost of AppleCare is no longer worth the price.

We will review every possible option in depth below.

FAQ

Is it Possible to Cancel AppleCare After a Repair?

If you have an issue with your Apple product and need to get it repaired, you may be wondering if you can cancel your AppleCare coverage after the repair is done.

The good news is that you can cancel your AppleCare coverage after a repair is done, but there are a few things you need to keep in mind.

First of all, you need to make sure that you are within the coverage period for your AppleCare plan.

If you cancel your coverage after the repair is done but before the coverage period is up, you may not be able to get a refund for the plan.

Additionally, you need to make sure that the repair was done by an authorized Apple service provider.

If you have a warranty issue with your device after the repair was done by an unauthorized provider, your AppleCare coverage will not be valid and you will not be able to get a refund.

Will I Get a Full Refund?

If you have an Apple product, you may be eligible for a full refund on your AppleCare coverage.

In order to be eligible, you must have purchased AppleCare within 60 days of the product purchase, and the product must have been defective.

If you meet these requirements, you can contact Apple and they will refund your AppleCare coverage.

Can I Change My AppleCare Plan?

If you are within the United States, you are able to change your AppleCare plan if it is still within the 60 day window.

To do so, you would need to call AppleCare and speak to a representative.

They will be able to help you with the process of changing your plan. There may be some exceptions depending on your region, so please check with Apple for more information.

Some reasons why you might want to change your AppleCare plan include: if you are no longer covered by the original plan’s warranty, if you need a different level of coverage, or if you need to add an additional device.

If you decide to change your plan, there may be some adjustments that need to be made to the terms of the new plan.

For example, the new plan might have a different start date or it might cover a different amount of time. Make sure that you are aware of any changes before signing up for a new plan.

AppleCare is a great way to protect your devices, and it can be especially helpful if something goes wrong.

However, it’s important to remember that plans can only be used for a certain amount of time, and they may not always cover everything that could go wrong with your Apple products.

Can I Transfer AppleCare Plan Ownership?

When you purchase an AppleCare Plan, the plan is associated with the device that it was purchased for.

This means that if you want to transfer the plan to a new device, you will need to contact Apple and request a transfer.

The transfer process can take up to two weeks, and during that time the plan will be inactive.

If you have any questions about transferring an AppleCare Plan, you can contact Apple Support for more information.

Conclusion

AppleCare is a great service that offers many benefits to its users.

These benefits include extended warranty coverage, technical support, and software support.

Overall, AppleCare can be a great investment for anyone who owns an Apple product.
