This system has been in Germany for 2 years (a bit in Hamburg). It has been like this since the launch of iPhone 6.
I forgot to specify that it is active for any information. From leaving an idevice in service to buying a new product. The staff fills in your data on an iPhone 4s (equipped with a card reader and to pay directly from there) and when the product is ready, you receive an email or an SMS (as the customer wishes) to present yourself in the store. This system is also valid for sending invoices or product status.
Relatively ok, but I experienced something that disappointed me. I went to the former iphone 6 plus to change the main camera. I checked from home and my model was included in that batch with problems. I went to the appstore and had another meeting with someone from sales who also checked if the product is active. Then I got to a queue of 20 people with all kinds of problems at idevices, where there was only one technician. After an hour of standing in that line (he checks once more if he is in that program), he tells me to leave the phone there and in 3 hours it will be resolved. After 4 hours I receive a message to present myself in the app store. All good and beautiful. I get there and meet the repair technician. The surprise is that he had not changed anything on the phone because it took pictures well and he told me that it is not necessary to burn the camera in it. If there is a crack, I will present myself there again. And after 5 minutes of arguing with the man, I left because he doesn't mess with them.
Long live apple with its employees. ??
