Apple valued my traded in iPhone 12 Pro Max at £0, thanks to 1 crack on the lens. The merits of this aside, I obviously had no intention to accept this offer.

While scrolling the page my finger hit the Accept button, and that was that. No confirmation nothing.

I have spent ages talking to Apple support, who claim they can’t do anything and it’s “in the legal terms that once you accept, you accept”. While they’re legally in the right, I’m out a fair amount of money.

Has anyone faced this before? Is there ANY way to cancel the trade in at this point, or anyone to contact?

Frankly, the support experience has really soured me on Apple.

    Can’t you read at all?

    OP is complaining about ACCIDENTALLY hitting that button.

    Let’s try to explain how things work.

    First, you may want to trade the device in to get a discount on a new unit. You declare the state in which the device is in, and Apple’s site gives you a value.

    Second, Apple inspects the device and either confirms everything or marks it down by citing a reason.

    Third, in the case of a markdown, you have to either accept or refuse the terms. (Assuming that if you refuse, you can request to get your device back.)

    OP accidentally hit Accept and there’s no going back. Which led to this post.

    Not sure why I ever bothered to type all of this because it’s so obvious.
