Apple has increased the accident incident fee for AppleCare+ to $79 per incident from $49 per incident.

AppleCare+ for iPhone extends repair coverage and technical support to two years from the original purchase date of your iPhone and adds coverage for up to two incidents of accidental damage due to handling. Previously, each accident repair was subject to a $49 service fee plus applicable tax. That has now been increased to a $79 service fee.

Apple has also launched AppleCare+ in Europe. France, Italy, Germany, the Netherlands, and the UK are among the countries that AppleCare+ is now available in. The accident incident fee in the UK is £55.

That's not bad compared to how expensive it is to have ur phone repaired or replaced. Considering other protection plans charge even higher deductible and have monthly fees up to $9,99
