    Hi there MIchaelCurley

    Thank you so much for getting in touch with us here. I'm so sorry to hear what happened with your handset. If a handset was purchased in-store, it needs to be dealt with by that particular store. If you dealt with Apple directly and was given proof of this, the store manager should escalate this there and not have suggested contacting Customer Care as they will not be able to assist you with this.

    Would you mind just sending me your mobile number in a PM so I can get this looked into, please?

    -Kyle
