EXPIRED - 2 year extended Acer Laptop Warranty for £19.97 (+£5.60 post) @ Acer Direct reduced from £125.97


£26.00

424°

FOUND BY: ptgrav 6 months, 3 weeks ago

STARTS: 01/05/2009   

Hello all,
I bought one of the Tesco Acer Blueray laptops and was looking to extend the warranty on it. I found the Aceradvantage 2 year extended drop and collect warranty for £26 delivered. Although it's drop and collect I believe there are a large amount of drop in centres and if you aren't close you can always courier it in to get it fixed. Warranty covers parts and labour and is 2 years on top of the manufacturers warranty so giving 3 years in total. Worth the money even if it's only the PSU that dies.

Edit: £26 adds 1 more year not 2 years as detailed above. Still not bad though.

Be gentle this is my first post. Sorry couldn't get the picture to work.

Here's the direct link:

It's Acer only, and directly with Acer.

Looks worthwhile - looking for a new laptop for my wife (seems like a fair exchange) and this might make us look at Acer.

Unfortunately, I've found it hard to get Acer to pay up with my warranty, but it is a hot offer if you can get them to fix it (just my humble opinion & in my experience)

I would go for tghis is they bothered to give a list of repair centres. There may well be 'many' but it isnt much good if they're all in London!

As it's an insurance I assume you can return it if it's no good within 14 days.

Once mine turns up I will list the drop in centres.

Nice price even if the P&P is a bit of a con!

Unfortunately my housemate took exception to his Acer before this offer came on. Reckon they'll fix it if we tape up this cardboard box and stick a couple of chocolate bars in there as a sweetener?



Good deal by the way! Applecare cost me £58 as a student but is usually about the same price as the original £125.

Good deal but would be good if someone can combine the details.

Like a lot of people on here I have a Aspire One and this would be great.
