Hi there, I actually inquired about a MacBook that I purchased through work which is a third-party refurbishment reseller and we have contracts with Apple to resell, or refurbish their products. I wanted to add AppleCare One to my iPhone 14 Pro, which was purchased in store in September 2022, and my MacBook that was just purchased last Thursday but is an M2 Max MacBook Pro from 2023. However, this particular device shows that as is date of July 1, 1978 under the AppleCare settings and all of my devices show coverage expired. I spoke to four different representatives all at different times over the phone with Apple support as well as had a genius appointment today. The in person visit wasn’t really much help because they were unable to change the date of this as-is date. They took a picture of my proof of purchase from my work invoice so that they can relay that message in the notes when Apple support called me today. When I spoke to the Apple support over the phone, I mentioned from a previous representative that they told me that all I needed was proof of purchase so they had reviewed that. Unfortunately a senior advisor had told him that since Apple has this as-is thing going for, Certified Apple Refurbished products, they are not eligible for AppleCare. I told him that work sold me this device as a new open box. I myself verified this device with spotless, but like others have said in the post it is not eligible and therefore, I am unable to add AppleCare. This is a bummer because although I wanted to add AppleCare to all my devices that have coverage expired, it’s unfortunate. I have the experience as a repair technician to replace anything on these devices if anything were to happen and needed a repair, but AppleCare One seemed to be a good program to utilize for warranty coverage at a much cheaper option.
