Apple repair for hacked iphones

[continuity]

Hi all,

I have an unlocked Iphone bought in NY that seems to be beyond any home software repair... And i live out of the US.

I was thinking about having Apple fix it (and paying for the repair). I called in and the guy was not very clear about the procedure but the conclusion was :

You send it in (i assume in the apple shop) and we fix it, it should cost you 249$ + shipping....

Anyone gone thru this before? any hints to give?

Cheers,

i was under the impression apple said they wont touch hacked iphone and are giving ppl the cold shoulder.

guess its good to hear they are actually willing to fix it.

Apple has made it clear they will not service an iPhone which does not belong to a legitimate AT&T contract. (for those bought through the states).

Was it an Apple rep you were talking to?
