Alternatively, if your device is no longer available for credit, then you can hand it over to Apple for recycling.

Your device might not be available for credit if it is too old and has been added to Apple's doomed 'obsolete' list.
"Products are considered obsolete when Apple stopped distributing them for sale more than seven years ago," the company writes on its
"Apple discontinues all hardware service for obsolete products, and service providers cannot order parts for obsolete products."
It means it can't be repaired, as Apple no longer has the parts.

Apple also doesn't accept iPhones with a broken screen or other significant damage.
In both cases, Apple will only recycle the device for you.
iPhone tricks to try today
Here are some of the best...
Typing cursor
– When typing, hold down the space bar to turn your keyboard into a trackpad, letting you move around words and sentences more easily
Close all Safari tabs
– To do this in one go, simply hold the overlapped squares in the bottom right-hand corner, and press close all tabs
Delete lots of photos quickly
– Hold down on a photo and then drag your finger diagonally in Photos to select lots of images at once, then hit delete
Convert currency quickly
– Swipe down from the top of your Home screen, then tap in the bar and type a currency (like €200) and it will automatically covert to your local currency
Check if you're due a battery upgrade
– Batteries inside smartphones degrade over time. Just go to Settings > Battery > Battery Health, and check out the Maximum Capacity reading. Generally a battery is considered worn when you're down to 80% capacity. If you're below, you can buy a battery swap from Apple
Move apps around faster
– Hold an app until it starts wiggling, then (while still holding) tap other apps, causing them to stack so you can move them around easier

I work at Costa – the five annoying things people always do – please stop ordering whilst on your phone for starters
A WOMAN who works as a barista in Costa has revealed the most annoying traits of customers. Lauren Taylor, from the UK, took to social media to inform people about what they shouldn't do when ordering a coffee. Advertisement 2 A Costa barista has revealed the worst things customers do to them Credit: Getty - Contributor 2 Lauren Taylor didn't hold back Credit: tiktok/@laurenjtaylor The first annoying thing many customers do is simply forget their manners. Lauren will greet customers with a 'hello' but instead of saying it back, many bark their drink order at her. "A simple hello goes a long way," she reminded them. Another grievance of Lauren's was that customers would not pick a size for their drink, instead insisting they wanted a 'normal' size. Advertisement READ MORE ON JOBS She urged them to simply look at the available sizes and pick one. The barista was also fed up with customers thinking she was a mind reader when it came to what coffee they wanted. Many would ask for 'just a coffee' despite having twenty different ones to choose from Lauren would often suggest a classic Americano with milk, but would be corrected by the customer that they wanted a latte. Advertisement Most read in Fabulous The barista was often stuck calling out the coffee order to the customer standing in front of them with no reply in return. She said it seems like customers often forget what they ordered or choose to blatantly ignore her. Huge coffee chain with over 1,300 shops to close high street shop Last but not least, Lauren was sick of customers ordering their coffee while being busy on the phone. Not only was it rude, but customers often order the wrong drink as they're preoccupied and then blame the barista. Advertisement "Somehow, this is still my fault," she said. The video has since gone viral on her TikTok account @ Costa Coffee loyalty scheme perks COSTA Club members can get early access to new menus among other perks. To join download the Costa Coffee app, it's free to download via the Apple app store or Google Play store. Stamps can be collected in any of the chain's 2,800 coffee shops, as well as around 12,000 machines in petrol stations and convenience stores. You can get stamps for spending in store and using a reusable cup. You get a free drink after collecting ten stamps, or beans as they are called. For a small latte, at £3.50, it's £35 to get a free coffee. Those going to a Costa store can earn an additional bean with a reusable cup, so that cuts the outlay down to £17.50 or buying five coffees. How it works: 1 drink purchased = 1 bean, 10 beans = free drink Small latte cost: £3.50 Number of drinks to hit target: 10 Cost for a 'free' coffee: £35 Reusable cup bonus: Yes, one extra bean You also get free cake on your birthday. Plenty of people who work in hospitality took to the comments, sharing their own stories. One person wrote: "I work at Greggs and I feel your pain." Advertisement Another commented: 'I had a woman last week ask me for a normal coffee… she wanted an oat milk flat white." "'Regular latte' 'Ok medium' 'No?? Small,'" penned a third. Meanwhile a fourth said: "I work at Costa and can confirm all these things are 100% spot on." "As someone who works in a cinema I totally understand this! No one ever tells you what they actually want,' claimed a fifth. Advertisement Someone else added: ''Can I get a white coffee' then proceeds to argue with me that a white coffee is a latte and there's no such thing as an americano with milk.2
