$15 iPhone 4 Antenna Settlement Checks Now Being Received

by

The first responders to the iPhone 4 antenna class action lawsuit are receiving their $15 settlement checks, reports to 9to5Mac.

The settlement, which came about in February 2012, is limited to people who experienced antenna issues with their iPhone 4 but were unable to return their device and opted not to receive a free bumper case from Apple.

Apple will provide a $15 cash payment to Class Members who send in a valid claim form. The claim form will require you to declare that you: (a) experienced antenna or reception issues with your iPhone 4; (b) were unable to return your iPhone 4 without incurring any costs; (c) were unwilling to use a case or free bumper for your iPhone 4; and (d) completed certain troubleshooting steps or are unable to complete the troubleshooting steps because you no longer own your iPhone 4.

The first checks were issued on April 17, 2013 and are void after July 16. Apple accepted claims until August 28 of 2012.

Apple makes it ridiculously hard to get a lousy $15 for a defective phone?

I'm just glad I returned mine and that's what it took for me to go with Android.

I had the first (full price). Received the iTunes credit when they dropped the price as their apology for huge price drop after launch and made the mistake of getting the 3G. At least that still gets used in my Bose dock.

Never again. Tomorrow should be interesting with results posting after the market closes.

Disgraceful settlement.

Android. Bose dock. LOL

Apple maps, Sorry (Siri), iOS from 2007 & Google scraps they give to Apple.
Good luck with the new Yahoo in iOS 6. It should be magical.

LOL

More trolls of this board now that actual users. And trolls are the most active, sadly. People who joined 2 years ago to post android troll content have twice the posts that I've had in ten years.
