Insurance

[Jonymich]

I am interested in the "3 Year Insurance pack against theft and damage " how can i go about purchasing this

[Thalamus.]

Sounds like VAIO+

I think you can purchase and register Vaio+ if your Vaio is still within the original standard warranty period..

It's 179GBP for vaio+ and an additional 179GBP for Vaio cover, that does seem very expensive..

Taken from the Vaio Cover FAQ
Can I insure my one-year-old laptop/desktop PC with VAIO Cover?

Yes, if you are a limited company. If you are an individual user however, VAIO Cover will only insure computers that are less than 3 months old.

Why is the consumer treated worse than a business customer, most personal users would surely take as much care, if not more, of there Vaio than a business user...

Good point Thalamus, though I wish Sony would be a bit more enviormentally friendly with computing materials > 2 years old. Looks to me like if you have an old VAIO, we'll charge you a bomb to have it repaired or dump it.
