I also bought an iPhone on my credit card for my aunt (she paid me back), who had it stolen just a few weeks later. She bought another one to replace it, but that means there should be two serial numbers associated with her phone number. I wonder how that will work out.

I guess Apple Support will be receiving a lot of phone calls from people with situations like this. ]]>Sep 14th 2007 10:40AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/09/14/iphones-100-apple-store-credit-program-goes-live/http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/14/iphones-100-apple-store-credit-program-goes-live/Sep 14th 2007 10:48AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/09/14/iphones-100-apple-store-credit-program-goes-live/http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/14/iphones-100-apple-store-credit-program-goes-live/Sep 14th 2007 10:52AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/09/14/iphones-100-apple-store-credit-program-goes-live/http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/14/iphones-100-apple-store-credit-program-goes-live/Sep 14th 2007 2:42PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/09/14/iphones-100-apple-store-credit-program-goes-live/http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/14/iphones-100-apple-store-credit-program-goes-live/Sep 14th 2007 6:44PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/09/14/iphones-100-apple-store-credit-program-goes-live/http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/14/iphones-100-apple-store-credit-program-goes-live/Sep 14th 2007 10:39AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/09/14/iphones-100-apple-store-credit-program-goes-live/http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/14/iphones-100-apple-store-credit-program-goes-live/I can't imagine that apple has a database where every serial with the correspondendig number is saved.]]>Sep 14th 2007 11:05AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/09/14/iphones-100-apple-store-credit-program-goes-live/http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/14/iphones-100-apple-store-credit-program-goes-live/You mean you couldn't find step 1? wow......

Step 1: Identify your iPhone
To confirm eligibility, simply enter your phone number and iPhone serial number in the fields provided.


And they need your serial number to identify the phone, and your phone number to SMS you the code. And wouldn't you think that AT&T (Apple's partner) would have a database tying serial numbers to phone numbers. I would hazard to guess yes, they do.]]>Sep 14th 2007 11:19AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/09/14/iphones-100-apple-store-credit-program-goes-live/http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/14/iphones-100-apple-store-credit-program-goes-live/But I have to admit that not having such a database would probably lead to abuse of the refund, so there has to be one.

I do not understand. Is it just more information about different items or are these items for sale? Sorry if I sound silly, but I just was not sure if this was a company selling items and advertising on here.

Thanks
