Apple Owes Australian iPhone Owners Up To $250 Million. Here Is How You Claim Your Cut.
A $250 million class-action settlement has been reached for Australian iPhone owners. That is not a rumour. That is not a maybe. That is a pot of money sitting there waiting to be claimed, and most people will do absolutely nothing about it because nobody told them how. We are telling you now. If you owned an affected iPhone during the relevant period, you may be entitled to a payout. The clock on these things does not wait for you to get around to it. Read this, act on it, and share it with every iPhone owner you know.
What the law says
Under the Australian Consumer Law, goods sold to consumers must be of acceptable quality, which includes being durable and free from defects. Where a manufacturer or supplier fails that guarantee, consumers have rights to a remedy, including a refund or compensation for the drop in value of the goods. The class action against Apple is grounded in exactly this kind of consumer protection framework. The settlement does not require you to prove you were individually wronged in court. It requires you to register your claim before the deadline. Check the official settlement administrator's website for eligibility criteria, the claim period, and the deadline, because those details are specific to your situation and we will not guess at them for you.
