    Microsoft complete (Bargain)

    For anyone who has purchased a Xbox Series X for your Xmas gaming at 60fps+ (February for TD2) a not bad bargain can be purchased for peace of mind.

    Microsoft Complete for Xbox with Accidental Damage Coverage for 3 years @ £39.00

    They don't make it easy to purchase so you need to login to your Xbox account and go to here:

    https://www.microsoft.com/en-gb/stor...2:richpivot2-3

    After about 3-5 seconds a blue box will pop up at the bottom right of your screen "Question, Talk to a expert"

    Ask them for the 3 year warranty and tell them the serial number of your Xbox and they will take it from there.

    There's a catch though, you would of had to of purchased your Xbox from Microsoft to get this warranty

    I just done it for peace of mind

    Very good! Also, you can hit me up to extend the warranty on your car. LOL.

    Sorry, couldn't resist.

    I've never really been a fan of extended warranty purchases on tech items. Perhaps it is that I carry a bad teste in my mouth from experiences decades ago, but I would really, really urge people to read and fully understand the terms.

    Actually, no, I had a bad experience just within the past couple of years. But it wasn't a warranty extension but was "insurance". I paid about $10 a month to Verizon for a c0ouple of years to protect my wife's phone, and when it came time that the battery was bad they wouldn't cover it. I ended up learning how to open a modern smartphone and replace internal compnents and properly reseal it. All in all, it cost me under $100 to get a new battery and new display -- because it didn't look like the chance was good that you can remove the display to get to the battery without damaging the screen (it is slightly thicker than a piece of paper)

    I was right, and needed to replace the screen. Anyways, I paid $10 per month for about 3 years up to that point. So I paid over 3 times what the eventual repair cost in parts and walk away wondering why I bought that insurance.

    I truly hope you get great value from this, and that you don't end up regretting it years down the road when you need it. But, that said, I can't really see an Xbox needed and repairs unless it is installed in a horrible environment.

    those kind of insurances only cover partial repairs and total loss of the equipment either stolen or because of an acident , what you should done was to put the phone under the car wheel , drive forward , and then contact them saying you the phone had an "acident" , you would be entitled to a new phone.

    I live in a very clean enviroment (OCD) and trust me having 4 x Xbox's in the house having a repair as a backup is a nice peace of mind, i have had quite a few repairs with the Xbox one, Xbox one x through the years, normally the disc drive or the fans pack up.

    And now having 4 x Xbox Series X in the house having that backup is nice, it's not like they are the cheapest of consoles
