A manufacturer's warranty (in-warranty) is provided by your phone manufacturer and is generally valid for 12 months from the date of purchase.

If I receive a replacement phone as the result of an approved service request, am I covered for the new device?

Yes, but it’s possible that the service fee and processing fee could change depending on the new retail price of your device. Please refer to your program guide for more details.

Will I get the same phone for an approved service request?

Replacements are often new but on occasion may be reconditioned. While reconditioned equipment looks and functions just like new, it may have minor cosmetic flaws and contain non-original manufacturer parts and accessories. If the exact make and model is not available, your replacement will be of like kind and quality. Please note that color is not guaranteed.

Am I required to pay a processing fee before I get my replacement device?

Yes. You are required to pay a processing fee for each approved service request. For your exact processing fee, go to My Plan and sign in.

How will I be billed?

What should I do with my damaged device?

If your device was accidentally damaged and your service request is approved, you’ll need to ship your broken device. Packing materials for returning the requested equipment will be included with the replacement device sent to you. Be sure to act quickly! Failure to do so within 30 days may result in equipment and processing fees of up to the full retail price of your device.
