Good Evening;
I had the extremely bright idea of checking the oil in my car tonight and while attempting to check, I decided to place my phone in a location I thought that would be safe -- I stood wrong, extremely wrong and the phone slipped into a location that would be more than difficult to recover it from. I have an idea of taking my vehicle to the VW Dealership to see if they're willing to do a little work to find the phone, but then agin I'm thinking of how willing they'll be to do the work. I can literally, as of now at least, see the flashlight from my phone and no matter how much I drive the phone won't fall into a different zone. Unfortunately I had the bright idea of not purchasing insurance on my device, well it was really more of a financial decision if anything, so that's out of the question. In other words, if the phone cannot be recovered what should I do? Purchase another device? Do you think Apple would be more willing to listen to me and give me a break? It was truly an accident.
Anyways, thank you for reading and I look forward to your reply,
Demetrius H.

Metri96,
I'm sorry to hear about your phone! We'd love to help review all available options.
Since no insurance is present on the device I would strongly recommend receiving some assistance with have the device removed from the car if possible. This would help avoid having to purchase a new device at the full retail value if no upgrade options are available on the account.

Like you said, it is a financial decision at this point. How much will it cost to retrieve vs. buying a new phone. Apple will not just give you a new phone or a reduced priced rebuilt one without a damaged phone in hand.

Thank you, I was lucky to have a neighbor who is familiar with cars and found the phone in the weirdest of spots. My guess is it's too late to add insurance to this device, after tonight I truly believe I need something to help me out.
