A:AnswerIf you are going to replace a device with a gift card as your device is unrepairable, then just transfer the balance to the new machine. Once a protection plan is negated by an unrepairable device then it is no longer a valid plan, but you should be able to transfer it with a new device so long as it is purchased at the same place and time as when you surrender the old device
A:AnswerI believe that as long as your contract has not expired they will repair it (if it is under the warranty of the contract). I think mine says 'repair or replace'. Just call and ask them. They'll look up your warranty.
A:AnswerNo, once it’s expired, it is no longer valid. You can check with the manufacturer to make sure. Sometimes the manufacturers warranty is longer than we think.
A:AnswerIf it is manufacturers defect, then it’s taken care of by your warranty. In your case, dropping it isn’t covered by manufacturers. So your geek squad protection plan covers it. If it gets replaced due to the physical damage not being repairable. Your plan is fulfilled. Because it did what it’s meant to do, it got you a replacement. You’d have to purchase a new protection plan on the replacement computer.
A:AnswerCheck with geek squad on this. You can call, or take it in to a local Best Buy store to find out. If they do, then it would probably get sent out for repair.
