Iphone 4 return Policy?

Even i have the same question ! Can someone please answer this.

Apple has nothing to do with the contract you signed with AT&T.
The return policy is 14 days from date of purchase, minus a restocking fee(10%).

AT&T contract issues will have to be taken up with AT&T.

what if you did not open the box

Ooo, I hope it doesn't end up being a logistical nightmare. I wanted to know what my options are as well if I ended up returning the phone and how they would be able to reset my upgrade eligibility. I did a search and over on macrumors forum someone had just purchased their new phone on launch day and returned it the next day on friday. He said he spoke with someone with AT&T about reseting the upgrade eligibility and AT&T had said once they confirm that you have returned the phone to Apple it will reset your upgrade eligibility. He said you could also walk into any AT&T store and just show them the return receipt and they would reset it. I would think from the time you returned it to Apple, it would take maybe 48 hrs for the whole process to reset in their systems.

Hope this helped.

The only way you could have an unopened box is if you paid the full $699 retail price for one without a contract. In which case, return away! Though you're far better off selling it online: unopened, they're going for about $900 on Craigslist, and it's completely legal since you don't have a contract.

Apple's iPhone return policy is 30 days and the $175 early termination fee is avoided. Also the restocking fee only applies for opened packages.

iPhone Return Policy

If you are not satisfied with your iPhone purchase, please visit online Order Status or call 1-800-676-2775 to request a return. The iPhone must be returned to our warehouse within 30 calendar days from shipment to avoid an $175 early termination fee. The iPhone must be returned in the original packaging, including any accessories, manuals, and documentation.

Apple will assess a 10% restocking fee on any opened iPhone. Shipping fees are not refundable.

Note: iPhones must be returned to the original point of purchase (e.g., Apple Online Store, Apple Retail Store, AT&T, Apple Authorized Reseller) with a proof of purchase (e.g., Shipment Notification, Invoice Receipt).

You can get it unopened because you don't have to activate it in store like the 3g's.

An iPhone ordered from Apple.com and shipped to your home arrives unopened.

The ETF is actually $325 now.

Not "now"... if returned after 30 days of purchase, then yes it's $325 - $10 for each full month of your Service Commitment that you complete. After 30 days you have completed a full month of service so the ETF is actually $315 after 30 days and -$10 every month after that.

I stand corrected -- I had to activate mine in the store, but it's good to know there are other folks with different experiences.

Of course it would seem that if you bought the discounted version, even after returning it your upgrade counter gets reset, precluding any more discounted phones for a couple of years, so the restocking fee is the least of your problems....

You have 30 days to return the iPhone back to the Apple Store. You will not be charged a restocking fee since the box is opened in the store in order to have it activated. Your new two year contract will be nullified.

At&T will reset your contract if returned to apple within 30 days. I am returning my iPhone4 on Tuesday. I have no need for a $300.00 Brick. I will deal with the quickly draining battery of the Sprint HTC EVO4 and just keep a charger handy at all times. BYE BYE APPLE! YOU BLEW IT BIG TIME!!!!

Yes you have 30 days to return it and your 2 year contract will be cancelled. You need to call AT&T within 30 days and get an authorization to return. Once you get the authorization they will instruct you how and where to return the phone. I've done this in the past with AT&T and Verizon.
