The guarantee will only cover manufacturer faults and does NOT cover the following:

  • With iPhone 11 & 12, 11 & 12 Pro and 11 & 12 Pro Max, an “important display message” may appear, this may be due to previous refurbishment processes. This message will appear on the lock screen for 7 days, then appear in the settings for 14 days. The message will disappear after 30 days. This does not affect the functionality of the phone.

IP67 Rated and Water Resistance

  • Although the devices are classed as IP67 rated, water damage WILL NOT be covered under our warranty for any device purchased through us. Use in water is up to the user and no liability will be taken for us should any water damage occur during its use in a liquid. This also includes any paid repairs where we have replaced the screen or battery.

We recommend you keep your invoice safe. We would ask you to provide this as proof of purchase in the event of a claim. If you need to use this guarantee please contact us in the first instance and we will do what we can to help.

The screen insurance runs in line with your 12 month warranty and expires after the 12 months.

Battery Upgrade
