QuestionI am purchasing the bundle package LG washer and dryer. If I purchase the 5 year protection plan does it cover the bundle as a whole or would I need to purchase two 5 year warranty plans; one for the washer and one for the dryer?
Asked 5 years ago by Ronald.
- Answer Thanks for your question! The Geek Squad Protection plan currently applies to one device, so you would have to buy a plan for each device.

QuestionIs the geek Squad Protection in addition to the natural warranty of the washing machine which is ??
Asked 5 years ago by Al.
- Answer In my case the geek squad protection ran concurrently with the machines original warranty. It did not start at the end of the original warranty. Apparently the geek squad warranty covers some things that the original warranty doesn't. I think the original warranty was one year.

QuestionHello, We have just received a new Bosch washer, tried to run the first washing cycle, but the machine won't start. The start/pause signal is flashing. On the manual, it says this is related to a door lock issue. What should we do?
Asked 7 years ago by Anonymous.
- Answer I haven’t had this problem with this machine but I did have it with a previous machine so maybe this will help. Mine wouldn’t lock and I got the same error message. Mine was a top loader so I leaned on the top and put some weight on and it was able to lock and worked good. Try that and if it works then the top is not going down all the way. If not then maybe it is going down too far.
