Exchange iPhone that's currently on Apple finance

[vegas33139]

Hey guys.

I recently purchased an iPhone 7+ using Apples 12 month zero interest option with set monthly payments

I really was hoping for the SE 2 (if it's coming) but settled for the 7+ because I lost my phone whilst out and about and needed a phone quickly for work.

Anyway, to cut a long story short - if the SE 2 did come out, do you think I would be able to exchange it for my 7+ plus?

I'm not sure how it would work. Maybe something like......hand the 7+ back, pick up the SE 2 and Apple would adjust the monthly payments accordingly? maybe?

Many thanks.

Good morning.

I came across this while looking:

iPhone Upgrade Program Terms and Conditions

Specifically, Section 2.

However, to be 100% sure, you may want to contact Apple and ask them directly.

Hope this helps.

The short answer is "no". Unfortunately you'll need to make the equivalent of 12 monthly payments before you'll be able to upgrade. You could always make a lump sum payment on the loan and then upgrade prematurely but I'm not sure throwing money at a loan in order to get what will likely be somewhat of a downgrade is a great idea.

Worst case, wait it out. Your iPhone 7 Plus is an awesome device.
