You want it repaired? Pay through the nose or get it disabled.

Sadly, I'm not surprised in the least.

Woooah is that even legal? Once you've bought a product, surely it's yours to do with as u see fit? I can't see how this is legal..

If you invalidate your warranty, that's your decision. But to disable your device for getting it fixed outside of Apple? And I've just bought the iPhone 6s.... What have I let myself in for?

😨

We did try and warn you......

[jonsie]

That is absolutely disgraceful. Is this even legal?

[Cleoriff]

Another case of Apple thinking they rule the world.....

Surely thats not legal?

Apple trying to corner the world again.

@gindygoo i did warn you my friend

It's not surprising. If they just dropped the prices then more people would buy into them.
