Can I Return an Apple Watch for Store Credit Toward a New Computer?
Asked by

I bought an Apple Watch last week, but I'm not really happy with it. I'm also planning to purchase a new computer. When I return the watch, can the refund be issued as store credit or applied directly toward the computer instead of being sent back to my credit card?

The easiest way to find out is to ask before processing the return. If store credit is allowed, they can explain how it works; otherwise, you’ll probably receive the refund on your card and need to make the computer purchase separately.

That depends on the store’s return policy and how the original purchase was paid for. Ask the employee handling the return whether they can issue store credit or apply the value directly to your computer purchase. They may require the refund to go back to the original payment method, though.

SilverPigeon53: Some customers prefer store credit because they want to make the replacement purchase immediately rather than wait for the card refund to post, so it’s worth asking about both options.
