My new MacBook maintenance

Hi, i had new macbook this year and unfortunately within a couple of months a hairline light appeared on the screen. Took to Apple and the diagnosed it as accidental damage which took my device out of warranty. Im not sure hows that happened. I tried to budget the £530 price to fix it but im far from that amount. Im a student andvpaid all savngs to this device. How can i fix it please help me. Are there any exceptions or ways to reconsider their decision? Thanks

MacBook Air 13″, macOS 14.5

You can connect an external display until you can raise the funds for the repair. Of course that will limit the laptop's use to a desk unless the crack still allows you to use the built-in screen.

By the way, the laptop is still under warranty.....it is just the damaged part that is not covered at this time due to the damage. Once the damaged display is replaced, then even the display will be covered by the warranty again.
