It turns out that the publicity had meant that Apple have had a change in policy, and have given her one for free as well.

Which policy?

And what do you mean by 'given her one for free'? It reminded me of a Marklar quote - 'Why should Apple bend down and service you personally?' :lol: :lol: :lol: ;)

Finney continues, "Remember Diane Campbell? She saved up her money to buy an iPad only to be turned away. The Apple Store said she could not use cash, only a debit or credit card. She said a clerk told her it was to prevent iPads from reaching the black market. Campbell then contacted 7 On Your Side. When we asked Apple what was up, we were pointed to the no-cash policy. There was no explanation. 'We want to make sure it's as fair as possible for people to get iPads,' said Apple Sr. Vice President Ron Johnson."

MacDailyNews Take: Newsflash! Apple's no-cash policy is nothing new. It was in effect at least as far back as 2007 with the launch of the original iPhone.


This is what I was talking about earlier...
