Seriously there are other things that need paying for, like changing the colours of the sales team "uniforms" - it all costs money you know!

I had taken out the extended warranty on my up!. When I went to claim for a squeeking o/s/r damper in its 4th year (had been troublesome from just over 1 year old and they had had a couple of goes at oiling it, to no avail) I was told
a) a squeeking damper doesn't constitute a failure; only if it stops working. 'But the n/s/r one is silent' argument still was answered by 'the o/s/r one is still doing it's job'
b) extended warranty is NOT an extension of the manufacturer's warranty. It has (many?) more limitations.

It depends which version of the extended warranty you took

There’s three different choices.
