Airpod Gen 3 wont charge.

I my Airpod Gen 3s, will not charge or connect. They worked fine for 3 weeks since Christmas when I got them. They simply quit. I have tried all the advice on Apple Support. I believe it is a problem with my charging case. Can I go to nearest Apple store and trade them in?\

Getting this Serviced by Apple:


A. Genius Bar Appointment:

Take this into Apple. Ask Apple Support about this when calling them. Have Apple look into this. Start by contacting Apple***, and request that a Genius Bar Appointment be reserved. You would take this to your Local Apple Store, during which the screen and all other necessities would be looked at.

***Info on Contacting Apple:


B. Send-In Service:

With the Coronavirus going around, your local Apple Store may not be open at this very moment. So, send-in service is what you would use. So, while on the phone, ask the Apple Rep if mail-in service is an available option for you to send this in for service.
