Apple Offers Payment Relief to Apple Card Users Affected by Los Angeles Wildfires
Eligible users in disaster-declared zones can postpone payments without interest as part of Apple's Disaster Relief Program.
- Apple Card users in Los Angeles impacted by the wildfires can enroll in a program to delay one month's payment with no interest charged during that period.
- Eligibility is limited to users in FEMA-declared disaster zones with accounts in good standing; past-due accounts will not accrue further penalties but remain past due.
- Enrollment requires contacting Apple Card Support via the Messages app on iPhone, with payment adjustments handled through Apple Wallet or an Apple Card Specialist.
- Apple has implemented similar disaster relief measures in the past, providing financial flexibility to users affected by natural disasters.
- Apple CEO Tim Cook announced the company will also donate to support victims and recovery efforts in the Los Angeles region.
