AppleCare for new iPhone says illegible

My new iPhone 16pro arrived on Friday 20 September after ordering online week before when orders first opened. I had the 7 day AppleCare which expires today. I entered my phone serial number but I keep getting not eligible for AppleCare+ message. Thought I would ask here before calling tomorrow.

AppleCare+ for iPhone 14 after one year I tried to get AppleCare+ but I couldn’t obviously due to it being a year old. Is there any other support or insurance I can get through Apple. My phone is through Spectrum now. [Re-Titled by Moderator]

There is nothing wrong with my iPhone 14 Pro Max purchased March, 2023 how can I purchase applecare? Can I bring my iphone 14 pro max to a store so they can check it out so I can purchase applecare? No idea how the subscription ran out, I was told it would auto-renew and I'd be charged.

Ineligible for AppleCare+ after purchase I tried buying AppleCare+ as I wanted extra security and peace of mind and stupidly made the mistake of not purchasing it when I bought the phone but it says I am not eligible for it even though the phone was purchased December 2023 and still within the warranty period.

On your phone, go to settings>general>applecare and warranty. What does it say there?
