repairing iphone by Apple Authorized Service Providers

Hello,

There are two main types of Service Provider:

• Authorized Service Providers, companies which are Authorized to provide repair services to all Apple customers.

• Limited Service Providers, companies and organizations which operate under limited service agreements which allow service for specific customers or specific Apple products as defined in the Limited Service Provider agreement.

Only reputable stores can apply their staff at Apple in order to obtain a certificate (training by Apple: exams, courses ect) in order to call themselves 'authorized service provider'. The most logical reason behind this, is consistent quality and service.

I think the price is partly pre-determined by Apple, my -guess- would be that it is also determined by how large the store is and howmuch the employees fixing everything cost in order to stay a profitable bussines.

Hope this information helped.

Kind regards,

K
