Apple in-app purchase settlementApple customers who submitted claims for a class action settlement over iPhone and iPod warranty repairs are receiving checks in the mail this week.

Apple warranty settlement money

 

The Apple warranty settlement checks are from a class action lawsuit that alleged Apple knowingly used a faulty liquid detection tape in iPhone and iPod devices that indicated water damage even when there was none. The plaintiffs said the liquid detection tape could be triggered by temperature and humidity changes, but Apple allegedly failed to investigate the true cause of the device’s malfunction so that it could deny warranty coverage and force customers to purchase new or refurbished devices.

Apple denied the allegations but agreed to pay $53 million to settle the class action lawsuit in April 2013. Class Members of the Apple warranty settlement include Apple customers who attempted to repair or replace their iPhone on or before Dec. 31, 2009, or tried to repair or replace their iPod Touch device on or before June 30, 2010, and were denied based on the company’s former liquid damage policy. Eligible Class Members were expected to receive payments ranging from $105 to $130 from the class action settlement.

The deadline to file a claim was Oct. 21, 2013. [See our claim filing instructions here]

On May 8, 2014, a federal court granted final approval to the Apple warranty class action settlement.
