I just tried to request a repair after registering my console and it won’t let me. Is it because my console is out of warranty?
no microsoft should fix it for free
but I h8 xboxs so you probably will have to buy a new 1
I am buying a Ford F150 reg cab and I am not sure if I should buy the extended warranty, it already comes with the roadside assistance but will the extended warranty actually a good ideaa?
If you have the money laying around to pay for repairs then you dont need an extended warranty.. but when the tranny goes out and you have to cough up a couple of grand then you are going to wish you would have had the extended warranty. You hope you dont need it but if you do and you have it then you are covered, but if you need it and dont have it you are out of luck… kind of a catch 22.
Are the companies hoping you wont have to use it ofcourse, they have to make some money otherwise they wouldnt be in business to cover the repairs when they happen. I always hear on here, "they are only in it to make money"… isnt that really why EVERYONE is in business? To make money?
Why do people have health, life, home, auto insurance? They hope they dont have to use it, but if they do atleast they have it. If you decide to sell the vehicle BEFORE the extended warranty runs out, it makes a good selling point as they are usually transferable atleast once.
If you decide to get one, you MUST maintain the vehicle to the manufactures recommendations. WHY? So that if your engine goes out and you can provide the oil change records, then the warranty company knows it wasnt your error and will cover the repair as it is actually a mechanical failure, rather than you just not caring at which point its user error..
As always READ everything, if you decide you wont like/want the coverage, you usually have 60 days to cancel with a full refund, as long as no claims have been paid. After the 60 days you will get a prorated refund and you can cancel at anytime.
Check around, contact dealers, Credit Unions and your personal auto insurance agent. The dealers will be a bit more expensive as they can mark up the price quite a bit, but that gives them alot of room to haggle as well. CUs and Agents have a set commission that is much less than the dealers mark up, but they can not discount at all. Theoretically you could talk a dealership down to match the CUs price.
I want to buy an Ipod nano (8gb) and had ran across the option to buy a refurbished one from apple. Has anyone done that and how was the condition ? Also, when doing that are you able to register that specific ipod under your name and does it come with the computer connector?
Refurbished only means that it sent back for a repair of sorts. many company’s sell refurbished items. they will come with a full warranty and all cables, cords, connectors, and accessories that a new one will.
You will be able to register it under your name.
The best part is that many times refurbished items are sold at a slight discount.
i got a three red lights xbox360 from my friend but when i asked for a repair under warranty they said the warranty doesnt transfer to second users so now i need some of his personal info to get them to take it!! does anyone know what info they ask you for when you call in to get a repair? thanks guys!
They want general address and billing information that was given when he signed up for XBL/registered the console.
The easiest solution is to have him call in the repair instead and then give it to you once returned.
I have a 56 reg Mercedes Sprinter LWB van (in the UK) and it is beginning to suffer from rust on most of the panels, particularly the lower edges.
I was wondering how long the warranty is valid on the paintwork and whether Mercedes should be held liable for this type of corrosion.
The van was purchased privately and not from a dealership.
Should I just contact a local dealership and hope for the best or do I have any rights as a consumer with regards to this.
Thank you.
1. Mercedes are bastards. They will only honour any warranty if you bought from a franchised dealer.
2. They don’t have an ‘anti corrosion’ warranty, they have an ‘anti perforation’ warranty. This lasts for 7 or 10 years depending on the vehicle, but it MUST have had an annual inspection every year at a main dealer & had any paintwork repaired. In practice, this means you don’t have any body or paintwork guarantee.
I purchased a Canon SD1000 camera in March of 2007. I didn’t register for a warranty at the time because I didn’t really think about it. The camera is now broken and it hasn’t been a year yet. Can I still register for a warranty now?
The lens of the camera won’t go back in. Everytime I push the power button, it saids "Lens error, restart camera." Everytime I restart it saids the same thing.
I bought the camera from Staples.
First replace the camera batteries and try it again.
If this doesn’t work, take the camera and your original receipt back to Staples, show them what the camera is doing, and see what they will do about it. They’re usually pretty good and will probably either have the camera repaired or will replace it for you. The Canon camera warranty is good on your camera regardless of whether you file it or not as long as you have the original receipt. I’m not sure whether the warranty on that camera is 90 days or one year but if it is one year and I think it is, Staples will take care of you.
I want to get my xbox 360 repaired. My warranty is expired. And Im not willing to pay microsoft. If I send in my 360 saying it has 3 RROD would they fix it for free without saying anything? Would they even check to see if it’s broke or what?
Yeah they try it out and see what the problem is. Heres what you do and you cant get into no trouble just play it cool and dont panic.
Go to walmart and buy a new xbox system if you have the reg system arcade system then buy that one. switch the serial tags on the back and if you push in the little lid where you insert your controller theres a serial sticker under there to rip that off of both systems dont put them back on just do the ones on back switch them. then take it back for a full refund of you money. good luck
I’m running Windows 7 and I bought Fit-It Utilities 10 Professional Edition but it can’t fix my registry errors. I contacted HP and they said it’s not covered under my warranty and wanted another $169 to fix it or have me spend $200 with the Geek Squad at Best Buy. I have technical ability so if there is a workable solution out there I can implement it. Appreciate any assistance.
Do you mean Fix-it Utilities? Anyway, not a good program and I wouldn’t worry about so called registry errors. It’s kind of a scam. All registry cleaners or registry "optimizers" do is look for obsolete entries that point to files on your computer that are no longer there or were never there (have yet to be created). The fact a registry cleaner says you have errors means very little. Those kinds of programs don’t fix anything, they just delete information they think is obsolete. It all has no effect on performance.
if my ps3 break in 5 month’s under warranty
If you bought your PS3 on credit (Mail order, Debit or credit card) then you will have a proof of purchase (as good as a reciept. Just remember how and when you bought it and use either a bank/card statement or online transaction note and if you have a problem these should work
it says its already been registered? please help me. i don’t want to lose my warranty if it breaks again. thank you so much!
They register it for you. Look under your registered devices and it will be listed there.
