Iphone 7 no service issue
I have the iPhone 7 and last week out of nowhere it went to "no service" even tho i was in a service area. Looked up the issue and it seems to be a known problem that apple has but a bulletin out about and is offering to fix the problem. My issue is i live a long ways away from a Apple Store and in order to mail it to them they want to charge me for a shipping package and charge me the full price for a replacement phone until the issue with my phone is fixed. I'm kinda at a loss here and not sure what to do. I spent 3 hours on the phone with apple yesterday and it got me nowhere. After running all the tests they had me do and trying to restore the phone it is completely shot now. It won't even turn on. Any one had this issue?
