    I have what appears to be a single hairline crack in the screen of my iPhone 6 plus. Apple will replace this for free as its seen as a fault on their part, but incase its not a crack and just a scratch I was wondering if i could bring it to an authorised apple dealer like CompuB to get a professional opinion (even tho they don't sell iPhones), before I go to the bother of sending it off to apple!

    Blessings

    There are no AASPs for iPhones in Ireland. Only Apple.

    The crowd that do repairs for apple are down a lane behind Camden St. Try bringing it in there...

    That won't be authorised.

    I call porkies. If there was any authorised repair centre for iPhones in Ireland they would be listed on the Apple site.

    You did read the thread title didn't you, and the part where it was explained that iPhone's aren't serviced by any AASP in Ireland?

    Thanks for the replies! I know theres no one authorised to repair iPhones here, I was just wondering who I could go to for a professional opinion about the screen before sending it off to apple! Don't want to send it off, only to have them send it back saying its just a scratch!
