Reply to comment by iridescentsocks in Apple Care iPhone 13 - Do they repair or replace? by AaddeMos
Friend who works at the store just confirmed with me front and back glass damage would just be a full unit swap and that would be $99 under apple care+ (USA). If just the rear, then it’s a rear system repair for $29 UNLESS they have AppleCare SERVICES which is basically just AppleCare through the carrier. In that case the rear system repair would be $99 as if they are swapping the whole phone.

If they told you it’s 99$ and they’re in the US they’re using the incorrect classification and damage rate. Front and back glass damage only is a 58$ replacement and has been available for over a year. They are correct that AppleCare Services doesn’t have the same benefits of the current AppleCare+ agreement.

He sounded pretty confident, but I’ll ask him about the $58 rate. I only asked him how much it would be for a cracked back and front

If you’re interested in something you can see use the Get an estimate tool and it will provide you with that rate when selecting Cracked screen and back glass damage. That tool is relatively new and doesn’t seem to list the 12 and 13 for whatever reason even though they get the same repair options.
You can also see the “option” in the AppleCare+ terms and conditions with the keyword being and.
> For an iPhone with both screen and back glass damage, but no additional damage beyond the screen and back glass damage, including, but not limited to, a bent or dented enclosure, that would prevent Apple from replacing the screen and back glass on the Covered Device, separate Screen-Only and Back Glass-Only service fees will apply to the ADH Service.
The price isn’t listed there but it is 58$. Effectively 29$ + 29$.
