Where was this Purchased?


  • Apple?:

If this was purchased from Apple, then contact Apple Support.

Apple Support Info:

Why the Wait:

It may be a used return -- one that was mistakenly, never disassociated from an account(which has happened to me, in the past). Phone calls are taking a bit to go through at the moment, due do lots of calls. With the Coronavirus Pandemic, many are at home at the moment, with much time on their hands to contact Apple. So, just stay on the line, and you will get through :)


  • Web Site?:

If this was purchased off of a Web site (i.e. eBay), then contact the site, seeing if the seller can be held accountable, and if you can get your money back.


  • Personal Sale?:

If this was purchased in-person somehow, then take it up with that person.
