How it works

Your coverage for defects begins on the date your original Apple warranty expires and terminates at the end of the coverage period. This equates to one (1) additional year of warranty, valid only in South Africa.

The plan includes repairs and parts as well as labour at Core service centres or any Authorised Apple Reseller making use of the Core service centre.

How do I qualify?
To qualify for the iCare Extended Warranty, your Apple device must still be under its original Apple one (1) year hardware warranty.

Please Note
A separate Plan must be purchased for each product to be covered.
The iCare Extended Warranty should not be confused with the original Apple Care extended warranty and is only valid within South Africa.

Important - Please Note
These iCare Service Plans do not Cover any Physical or Accidental Damage.

Scope of Coverage.
Your coverage for defects begins on the date your Covered Equipment's Apple hardware warranty expires and terminates at the end of the Coverage Period (“Repair Coverage Period”). Core will provide both parts and labour. Core may provide replacement product or parts that are manufactured from new, refurbished, or serviceable used parts. The replacement product or parts will be functionally equivalent to the replaced products or parts and will assume the remaining coverage under the Plan. The products or parts that are replaced become Core's property. Core strongly advises you to record as a back up, data and software residing or recorded in the Covered Equipment, before having the Covered Equipment available for repair or replacement services. The scope of support provided to you will vary according to the Plan you purchased, as follows: Under the Plan, Core covers the Covered Equipment as specified on the packaging of the Plan. If during the Repair Coverage Period there is a defect in the materials or workmanship of the Covered Equipment or the other covered items described above, Core will at its discretion, repair or replace the affected item.
