Apple has updated its returns policy for the all-important Christmas shopping. By extending the typical 14-day return window to January 8th, 2021. A policy change that appears to have happened a little earlier this year, an indication online shopping may be busier this year.
According to the policy, all purchases at the Apple Online Store can be returned free until January 8th, 2021. And applies to items received between November 10th and December 25th. Though Christmas returns are still subject to terms and conditions, for example, they must be returned undamaged and in original packaging. Nonetheless, it makes shopping Apple products this Christmas a little less worrying.
“Items purchased at the Apple Online Store that are received between 10 November 2020 and 25 December 2020 may be returned until 8 January 2021.”
